In the normal course of events, one could understand the hundreds of “I don’t knows” and “I don’t recalls” former FBI Director James Comey during Friday’s testimony. Most FBI investigations are handled out of the field office in which the illegality allegedly occurred with the FBI Director not privy to all the details. But it was Comey who decided to run the whole Trump collusion and obstruction investigation out of FBI headquarters. He should have known and remembered every detail of his actions and those under him. He did.
Don’t count the “I can’t recalls” Just counting the contradictions and the lies would make quite a drinking game, starting the case which started it all -- Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn’s “process lie” about his legitimate contacts with his Russian counterparts as a national security adviser designate:
On Friday May 11, 2018, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein stating Comey testified the FBI didn’t think General Flynn lied.
In a March 2017 briefing then-FBI Director James Comey had with the House Intel Committee, he told members that the FBI agents who interviewed General Flynn “saw nothing that indicated to them that [General Flynn] knew he was lying to them.”

Send him for prison for life.
Uh, hello. Dems don’t get prosecuted.
Can’t wait until this queer duck’s goose is cooked.
We won't need as much rope.
“Uh, hello. Dems don’t get prosecuted.”
That is my recommendation to prosecute Comey.
What actually happens is beyond my control.
Comey lied.
Justice died.
"...Comey on Friday asked us all to believe that the man who remembered enough to write a book suddenly had total memory loss, saying “I don’t know” or the equivalent some 245 times. Comey claimed little knowledge of the Steele dossier yet he signed a FISA warrant based on it to spy on candidate and then President Trump all while he knew it was a fraud. His defense in front of Congress on Friday was that he didn’t know it was a fraud or he forgot..."
Wait a minute! The Director of the FBI lied?!? I’m shocked! Shocked! Well at least we can trust CIA Director Brennan to tell the truth on CNN.
“Comey Lied”
They didn’t finish it. Evey time he opened his mouth Comey Lied.
So how did he write a book? And get an advance?
I guess his publisher had him hooked up to a sodium pentathol drip to help him remember ....
=========================================
Comey's dearth of knowledge, comprehension and understanding of events while cashing US govt checks appears
to be a gross violation of govt-regulated employment .....and a high-profile misuse of a govt position.
Comey does not appear to have carried out the Responsibilities of the FBI Director, such as ensuring that
cases and operations that impact the safety and security if Americans are handled correctly.
Americans should demand that Pres Trump determine ASAP whether (A) Comey lied to govt officials as to his fitness
to be Director, and, (B) submitted falsified documents to govt officials.

However, personal messages sent to large groups of people and messages sent to disseminate information on non-Governmental activities, such as charitable events and causes, commercial activities such as personal businesses, and religious observances, are prohibited.
If an employee of the Department of Justice has questions about the Department's rules covering the limitations on personal use of government equipment and resources, or questions about whether planned personal use of office equipment is permitted, she should consult with her supervisor, or her ethics official.

I could see it in his eyes.
waterboard Comey
I recommend they lock him in a padded room, with a straight jacket on and with no doors for his duration on earth. If his brain is that far gone he is a danger to himself and others.
feed him LSD for breakfast every day
I’d keep him in a straight jacket and inject him with testosterone and watch him suffer. He be awake then all the time with the frustration of a high school kid that doesn’t get any.
If the FBI believed the Trump campaign was under foreign attack, they should have acted as patriots, to inform and protect the campaign.
Instead they did the opposite, trying to create an attack and suborn treason.
After all, Trump was running for President without their permission. To this day those bastards believe that they must decide who can be president and who cannot, what the president can do and cannot.
It would take decades of hard work on the part of the FBI/DOJ for my disgust to do away.
C.W.
The greatest flaw in our so-called justice system can be condensed down to this one class of people that populate that two-tiered, corrupt system: lawyers.
Isn’t it interesting that lying to the FBI is a felony but the FBI lying is normal discourse?
