The report said Comey could testify as early as next week.

Not just Comey. The cancer at the FBI has metastasticized.

CONCLUSIONS:
1) Most of this show was a nothing burger, just a bitter man who got fired for incompetence.
2) Comey is a leaker
3) The media reports are very inaccurate
4) Loretta Lynch obstructed Justice, not Trump.
5) John McCain has Dementia
6) This event amounted to a nothing Burger as related to anything anti-Trump

The most serious allegations against Trump are based on Comey’s GUESSES!.....just plane pathetic in every way.

Even more pathetic: Does he have notes of his conversations with Lynch -- probably not. Also, it is not the job of the FBI to decide who get prosecuted; rather, that's the job of the attorney general's office. Given his testimony that Lynch had been compromised by Clinton, he should have publicly called for an independent prosecutor.

Forget indictment. “No investigation”

It was amusing to see McTurd refer to Trump as “Comey” multiple times and no one corrected him.

His statements were nonsensical, as if he suffers from dementia.

[Comey thought Trump was a liar so he made notes.]

If a person made notes, then threw away the notes, would it still be ‘evidence’?

Not really. He's too big to prosecute, and the press will spin his testimony against Trump. Comey will be lauded as all the Senate Committee did, an honorable man.

The donks probably wish they let this die a long time ago. This whole affair makes Comey look like a incompetent, petulant tool and the donks look like nobody should trust them handling scissors much less governance. The MSM looks worse now than it did in 2004 with Dan Rather or in 2016 with the election. The Midterms are going to be brutal for them.

“Attorney General Lynch instructed James Comey to call the investigation into Hillary Clinton a ‘MATTER’ and not an investigation.”

That’s a lot more of a veiled request to lay off of her than saying Trump came close to saying about Flynn.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would call that a direct order...and Lynch explicitly gave it twice in the same conversation.

Comey said he was troubled by it because her directive to him aligned DOJ wording with Clinton campaign wording, and he knew it was a “criminal investigation” and not “a matter”

Nevertheless, he followed her directive because he didn’t consider the wording to be “a hill to die on. “

He further justified his obedience to Lynch by the end results (can’t recall his exact words)...but essentially-—turned out to be no big deal.

I would call him a coward, but his “cowardice” always seems to advantage one particular team.

I am no fan of McQueeg, but this was the best he could have done as far as I can tell.

Just making the point that the President was still being investigated over this garbage while the Clinton “matter” was terminated has some value.

It would help if he could tell the difference between DJT & Comey...
