Did the Recent House Intelligence Wiretap Confirmation Prove Comey Lied Under Oath?
thegatewaypundit ^ | Cristina Laila

House Intelligence chair, Devin Nunes dropped a bombshell today when he confirmed that President-elect Trump and his transition team were surveilled from Election Day to Inauguration Day. He also said that he put in a call to FBI Director, Comey and has yet to hear back.

Did FBI Director, Comey perjure himself after he just testified under oath in front of the House Intelligence Committee claiming that there was no truth to Trump’s wiretap claims? Comey was very careful how he worded things…looks like he’s splitting hairs…

Schiff: “Director Comey, I want to begin by attempting to put to rest several claims made by the President about his predecessor mainly that President Obama wiretapped his phones. So that we can be precise, I want to refer you to exactly what the President said and ask you whether there is any truth to it.

First the President claimed that ‘Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my wires tapped in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!’.

Director Comey, was the President’s statement that Obama had his wires tapped in Trump Tower a true statement?”

Comey: “With respect to the President’s tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets. And we have looked carefully inside the FBI.

The Department of Justice has asked me to share with you that the same is for the Department of Justice and all of its components. The Department has no information that supports those tweets”

Trump has more cajones than any President, in decades.

Parsing, by denying “wiretapping”, instead of surveillance, and denying that Trump was the object, instead of admitting Trump was in fact, surveilled, purposefully or not. Ask a question a certain way, then answer it a certain way. How to perjure without being guilty of perjury 101. He and Hillary must have been classmates.

...inside the FBI...leaves a lot of room outside of the FBI for wiretapping to have occurred - what I want to know is will the additional evidence of the "unmasking" of non-targeted people besides Flynn in Obama era wiretaps finally be enough to convince Comey to actually do his job and investigate the illegal leaking of classified information by the thug and his henchmen......

Comey has been cleaning up after the Clintons since the Whitewater days. Its a little late for him to suddenly find any integrity. He is owned lock stock and barrel.

You’ll notice that the very people who wiretapped Trump are the ones denying he was wiretapped. Similarly the very people rigging the election keep assuring us it was the Russians doing it.

Listen to the word-salad being delivered in the press and in the hearings. Listen between the lines and they make it plain that, of course they were surveilling Trump. And of course they rigged the election. It failed to deliver the desired outcome, but absolutely they rigged it.

Politicians have always been weasel-wording reprobates, but I discredit the co-presidency of Bill & Hillary Clinton for making the “spin-doctor” concept our dominant cultural paradigm. The Clintons and the whole Left Wing Conspiracy/Media Complex cannot co-exist with Truth.

Congress did not make Comey swear. The whole place is bogus.

Comey’s statement simply put forth that he was aware of no LEGAL surveillance that went through proper channels. Think about that for a minute.

Not a “keyboard commander” but I did command during an Army Officer career. And you? Jane?

Thanks for your service, Sam. Very much appreciated.

I don’t see how that makes you an expert about (your claim regarding) Pres Trump’s lack of jewels.

When you run for, and are elected Pres, then you can compare and comment on them.
