I read your article today...twice very carefully.

Good work.

I am wondering if the House Intelligence Committee will call Comey as a witness and if Comey will tell the Committee about the FISA warrant on Trump Tower.

That seems to be what Trump is getting at.

Sessions would have advised Trump that there is political trouble in his speaking directly to Comey or the FBI about this matter. So Trump got the matter of his wiretapping attached to the Committee's investigation of Trump and Russia. If they call Comey, which I presume they will, someone will ask about the wiretaps.

I would appreciate you opinion on this matter.

Thx in advance.

I think the key is that it is an ongoing investigation.
I think (regardless of whether true or false) Comeys story was leaked to the NYT.
People have probably outed themselves.

It is, to some observers, looking like Comey set up the leak by giving a false story to a leaker.

Comey and the FBI have not responded to requests as to the veracity of this story.

That tells us that there is either more to the story or that the story is fake.

Keep in mind that Comey was kept in position because Trump and Sessions trust him.

Comey is playing this straight.

He is on the Trump team.

Excellent. Thx for that.

Comey and Rogers vs Brennan and Clapper.

What I would give to be a fly on the wall.

The media has asked Comey and the FBI for comment and none has been forthcoming.

The WH cannot be in direct contact with Comey or the FBI. Direct contact by the WH would taint the appearance of independence on the part of the FBI.

There is an investigation underway after all.

Everything is moving ahead nicely and according to plan.

The swamp is dutifully warned of its imminent draining.

Add the source "senior American officials" to your not to be trusted list.
