Former U.S. attorney Preet Bharara Sunday implied that he was fired by President Trump in order to kill an investigation.

Bharara, whose district encompassed Manhattan, was one of 46 U.S. attorneys across the country who had been asked by the Trump administration to resign Friday afternoon.

He refused to resign, setting up a public showdown with the Trump administration. A day later, he announced via Twitter that he had been fired. Then on Sunday, he tweeted a suggestion that his firing had something to do with an effort to squash an investigation.

"By the way, now I know what the Moreland Commission must have felt like," Bharara tweeted Sunday.

Another damned, lying liar!!

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

How about he was fired because he refused to indict Hitlery? How long has this been going on? He’s investigating the Clinton money laundering foundation, then he’s not then he is then he’s not.

[momincombatboots]

So, it’s confusing, is he a good guy for exposing lots of corruption, or a bad guy for it?

[grania]

By giving his opinion as to why he was fired, isn't he self-identifying himself as a leaker? Think about it. In his district he would have knowledge of what spying activities were going on at Trump Tower.

That's my conspiracy theory, and I'm sticking with it!

“related to potential investigations of Trump’s earnings from foreign sources.”

LOL LOL LOL!!! Yeah like Hillarys, but I guess her “income” from foreign sources is completely off limit.

[lodi90]

And this comment is why he was fired.

[reformedliberal]

I recall Trump’s press conference on his divestment.

Not only is the entire family and some Cabinet members working for $1, but all profits from all foreign sales of hotel rooms/golf, etc is to be DONATED TO THE US TREASURY.

Investigated that, did you, Preet?

[kenmcg]

Just wondering how many investigations did Preet’s office due to enforce immigration laws? Enough said! Not to mention voter fraud. Beat feet Preet!

[jjotto]

I think Preen should run for the US Senate in 2018. That’ll show Trump!

Here's the story floating around NYC this morning ...

1. Preet Bharara used to work for Chuck Schumer, and Schumer recommended him to Obama for the U.S. Attorney's post in the Southern District of New York.

2. After Trump won the election, he decided to keep Bharara in that post to curry favor with Schumer, who was the incoming Senate minority leader for the Democrats.

3. After Schumer began working (publicly) to criticize and undermine Trump since the day Trump was inaugurated, Trump decided to take the olive branch he had extended to Schumer and set it on fire.

And so ... "Preet Bharara, you're fired!"

[wtd]

If anything, Bharara was fired for insubordination and for slow-walking important investigations detrimental to the dems.

• Preet & Schumer have long been joined at the hip

  

  According to George Webb: Preet Bharara busted delivery boys on the drug routes and extorted Wall Streeters for Hillary contributions, just like McCabe used to do. Preets been slow walking cases against Erdogan & Reza Zarrab (drug running rat line between Pakistan and Turkey), Hillary's server, and Huma server / Anthony Weiner's laptop with 650,000 emails where the Chief of Detectives, Robert Boyce, in the NYPD implied the 650,000 emails contain child exploitation , perjury, obstruction of justice and money laundering and pay-to-play, then there's cases against

• Fetullah Gülen organizations

• USAToday 10/2015: Turkish faith movement secretly funded 200 trips for lawmakers and staff, etc.

  Note:

  Turkey’s National Security Council officially designated Gülen’s movement as the Gülenist Terror Organization (FETO), on par with other enemies like the Islamic State or the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK). Gülen would face terrorism charges as the leader of this organization if he were extradited to Turkey." link

  Webb also talked about Andrew McCabe's conflict of interest here - receiving $675,000 (campaign donation to wife) from Teri McCauliffe who is the best friend of Bill Clinton...and also how he's walled off and segmented the investigation to knock down the Hillary Clinton Foundatoin investigation, the Huma server investigation and now, the Awan brother's investigation. He has not sent the FBI to investigate the Awan brothers. It's being run by the Capitol Police.

[Ms Mable]

Was he also in charge of the Anthony Weiner investigation? Is that why it’s taking so long to prosecute him?

[ColdOne]

Wow...thank you for all that info.

[Sal]

I’ve been wondering if he’s been slow walking the pedo case that was taken away from NYPD and assigned to him right before they made arrests back in November.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

I knew they were working for a buck but I had no idea profits were being donated to the US treasury, but that's our media today for you. God forbid they should report that. It unreal, it's like we're living under some kind of Stalinist propaganda network, you actually have to take the time to seek out the truth in the news today. I was doing that this morning, reading one fake story after another and then looking up the truth.

And BTW, the gall of this media to accuse Trump of rigging the election with the Russians. THEY are the ones who rigged the election and FAILED! Look at this for example, this is just the NY Daily news headlines from the past year. THIS is election rigging, this is the PROOF, something they still don't have with the Russians...........

Wow! If I’d read down further I wouldn’t have had to post at all.

[Robert357]

At first I had mixed feelings about this guy because he said he had talked to Trump. Now with his making these kind of statements it is clear it was right to fire him. His is a Democratic partisan using whatever soapbox he can to advance his politics.

[sport]

That was what some of his supporters on Free Republic were alluding to on the initial thread that I read. He was about to put Cumo and some more away. Of curse, he had not done it since he had been there, but he was right on the verge of doing it. If he had had another 100 years, he could have done it.

[BuffaloJack]

Although he had an investigation going on, he was still just a democrat crony with ties to Obama and Hillary.
He needed firing. Someone else can take over his investigations into corruption in New York politics.
