Comey And Lynch Will Be Subpoenaed By Senate Unless Feinstein Obstructs
The Daily Sheeple ^ | 6-22-2018

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) says he’ll issue subpoenas for former FBI Director James Comey and former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, but the panel’s top Democrat Dianne Feinstein (CA) has to agree to it per committee rules. Grassley also said he would be open to exploring immunity for Comey’s former #2, Andrew McCabe.

“I will want to subpoena him,” Grassley said of Comey during an appearance on C-SPAN’s Newsmakers.”

The Iowan added that committee rules require that he and Feinstein “agree to it, and at this point I can’t tell you if she would agree to it. But if she will, yeah, then we will subpoena.” –Politico

Feinstein may be hesitant to sign on, as she says she thinks Comey acted in good faith – which means she thinks Congress shouldn’t have a crack at questioning a key figure in the largest political scandal in modern history.

“While I disagree with his actions, I have seen no evidence that Mr. Comey acted in bad faith or that he lied about any of his actions,” said Feinstein during a Monday Judiciary panel hearing. Former Feinstein staffer and FBI investigator Dan Jones, meanwhile, continues to work with Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS on a $50 million investigation privately funded by George Soros and other “wealthy donors” to continue the investigation into Donald Trump.

Also recall that Feinstein leaked Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson’s Congressional testimony in January.

Comey skipped out on appearing before Grassley’s committee this week following the June 14 release of DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s (OIG) report on FBI conduct during the Hillary Clinton email investigation – which dinged Comey for being “insubordinate” and showing poor judgement. Horowitz is conducting a separate investigation into the FBI’s counterintelligence operation on the Trump campaign, including allegations of FISA...

Is that how it works in the private sector?

Law enforcement would like to indict or subpoena someone that is suspected of crimes, but, law enforcement has to get the go-ahead from some other person who is friendly to the person with the allegations against him or her?

And, btw, Comey and Hillary are no longer government workers, and are now private citizens. So, why even listen to Feinstein? And, wouldn’t Feinstein be illegally assisting “potential” criminals.

Of course she’ll obstruct. The only Democrat still mad at Comey is Hillary, and she’ll get him eventually without them.

More than correct. Schedule a hearing for a few months. then declare rules preventing same. Argue over rules for a few months. No hearing ever occurs. No testimony taken.

Trump needs to start charging DS’s. He needs to go on the offensive.

I’m recalling something about the late Upton Sinclair, styled a great truth teller by the Left, that was revealed only a few years ago.

Turns out that he knew Sacvo and Vanzetti were guilty from their own lawyer but wrote Boston as an effort to exhonerate them because he knew playing up the injustice to the scum sucking anarchist / poow widdle immigwants (never mind that their victims were immigrants too) would sell well in Europe (which was even then overrun with full blown precursors of today’s Left wing nitwits).

Yet that no more makes a ripple among the Left than finding out Hemingway worked for the NKVD.

Actually, that the DNC crowd cares about Russian influence (but not about ChiCom) is decent evidence that the Russians aren’t commies anymore (and the ChiComs still are).

No immunity.
McCabe is a Hillary drone. He committed crimes, he exercised a coup d’etat, he has to face justice.

Immunity is a free pass.

"Then change the committee rules."

You know the Dems would do it if the shoe was on the other foot.

How does that work though? What if he says “I have dirt on Comey, McCaBE and Rosenweasel” Do they take that at face value and then when he testifies he can say, “They all saved 15% on their car insurance with Geico.”?
