Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly said his country is willing to offer former FBI Director James Comey political asylum if he is prosecuted in the U.S. for leaking his memos on his private conversations with President Trump.
According to a translation by RT, a Russian-controlled television network, Putin said Comey's leaks put him "in a vulnerable position." He compared the former FBI director to NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, who currently has asylum in Russia.
Comey, like Snowden, acted as an "activist," Putin said.

This is a shot at Comey. It makes it look like Comey was in bed with the KGB.

( Mr. Comey, did you engage in or know of ANY OTHER leaks?)
To: Lady Heron
Both Snowden and Comey are confessed leakers.
It’s very likely that Comey has been leaking secrets for a very long time.
To: markomalley
Okay, take him, but here’s the deal: you need to take Obama, Hillary, Biden, Shumer, Pelosi, and three democrats to be named later at the same time.

LOL!.....He's screwing with the RATS and their loyal followers.
Sounds like Putin is also inferring that Comey is the obstructer too.....
Since the DUMMIES on the left are already a few fries short of a happy meal, why shouldn't Putin throw a wrench into the mix, sit back and watch the wheels come off the DimRATS magic bus.

Don’t forget the biggest lizard in the swamp: Valerie Jarrett. She needs to go to Russia with the rest of the treasonous crew.

What a world! I can sincerely state that I have more trust in an ex-KGB guy than for the entire “resistance” in my own country.
