Former FBI Director James Comey will be forthcoming when he testifies before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday morning, but he will stop short of saying President Donald Trump tried to interfere in the agency's investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn, according to an ABC News exclusive.
Citing "a source familiar with Comey's thinking," the network reported there would be information that would make Trump feel "uncomfortable," but the former FBI director would not go so far as to say the president obstructed justice by asking him to drop the agency's probe.
Comey will also counter Trump's contention he told him three times he was not under investigation in the FBI's examination of claims Russia meddled in the U.S. 2016 presidential election and possible collusion with the Trump campaign.
"He is not going to Congress to make accusations about the President's intent, instead he's there to share his concerns," the source said.

has a better ring to it than witness coaching.
OK. So, did Trump tell you to drop the investigation, or not?
And, if he did, why didn’t you report it?
If he didn’t, why is there a story about a memo?
Who is leaking?
I suspect that Comey just can’t control his leaking self.
He’s there to share his concerns? Nobody cares. I thought he was there to answer questions.
I like the way they say he will be forthcoming, but will stop short of saying President Trump tried to interfere with the investigation. So, not implicating Trump is not being forthcoming? Maybe saying that Trump did not try to interfere with anything is also being forthcoming. I hate the media - they’re a greater enemy and threat than the lunatic dems.
Comedy needs to be interrogated about his Mueller communications.
How does ABC know what he’s going to say? Have they prepped him on the questions and answers like Donna did with the ‘old bag’???
Sure is a lot of people worried isn’t there...ROFL...I’m actually loving it watching them all wiggle and giggle because they are afraid they are next...
Meantime at the White House, Our President is busy doing the People’s Work...just like we knew he would!!!
The DEM branch of the uniparty has several departments working in collusion. The political department, the propaganda department, and the education department are the larger ones. There is also the protest department and the agitation department.
In almost all Congressional hearings, the witness is given written questions in advance and the committee members receive written answers in advance. Plenty of people involved to leak if anyone is interested. Hearings don’t usually stray substantively far from the script.
I know how they work, but I was downing ABC...or didn’t you get that part?
But he will say he caught TRUMP ROLLING HIS EYES and this will trigger a 3-week mainstream media FIRESTORM and meltdown!
bttt
Everyone take a drink!!!
The networks are pre-setting the hearing’s intensity level to NothingBurger.
Comey told Congress NO ONE pressured him to do ANYTHING..so if he says anything else he is a LIAR..he should have been fired DAY ONE not kept on
He’d be setting HIMSELF up for prosecution if he did.
Would he be lying now, or was he lying under oath to Congress?
.....and in other news, Kate Upton will not say that she's madly in love with me.
He has nothing incriminating and knows that if he says so, he would perjure himself.
