James Comey’s Donald Trump investigation overshadowed by tweets
The Washington Times ^ | March 21, 2017 | Charles Hurt

For a guy who claims to be above or beneath or beside grubby politics in America, FBI chief James Comey sure does manage to insert himself into the seamiest corners of politics and seize the spotlight at the most fraught moments possible. In this past election, Jim Comey was the “Where’s Waldo?” of American politics.

First he condemns Lady Dragon Hillary with the most damning exoneration in the history of public prosecutions. Then he slays her in public with just weeks to go before the election — only to ride up on his armor-suited horse in a failed effort to resuscitate her in the final days.

As busy as Mr. Comey was in the glare of the klieg lights toying with the helpless and enfeebled Hillary, he was even busier behind the scenes secretly tampering with the election in ways unknown.

Mr. Comey testified before Congress on Monday that his FBI launched a counterintelligence investigation all the way back in July into the presidential campaign of Republican nominee Donald Trump and possible ties to the Russian government.

Stop and think about that. We now know that Mr. Comey and his FBI were investigating not one but both leading political candidates for the highest office in the land during the most pivotal weeks and months of the most contentious presidential campaign in recent American history....

If they were monitoring him you know they were “wiretapping” him. If they weren’t wiretapping him then why not?

I got it! I’ve figured it out! Comey is a Russian agent and was messing with the American election process! /sarc

News just out the Nunez(sp) of the house intelligence has information that Trump was indeed “wiretapped”. He is on his way to the White House to brief President Trump.

FBI Director James Comey has absolutely no law enforcement background, and is not qualified to run the FBI. To add insult to injury, the FBI Director held an executive position at HSBC Bank, while extreme money laundering operations where being carried out by the Mexican Drug Cartel and their terrorist allies with the direct assistance of HSBC banking officials

COMEY IS UP TO HIS EYEBALLS IN TRYING TO TAKE DOWN TRUMP WITH INUENDO, LIES AND DISTORTION...

Remember, Trump had just given a popular SOTU speech, and they were back to talking about Russia with Jeff Sessions. It was a good move by Trump.

I’m starting to have worries that Trump will not have the fortitude to fire Comey and McCabe. What is the problem getting rid of them???

yes. Nunes has made a trip to the WH to brief President Trump that Team Trump was indeed ‘wiretapped’, although the buzzword around the egg-on-face MSM is ‘incidental surveillance’ as if that made it any different. Nunes briefing on tv now. Surveillance 'nothing to do with Russia.'

Surveillance, for certain, and probably wiretaps.

“Incidental” is not the issue.

‘Unmasking’ is THE issue. Trey Gowdy cast that hook Monday and Elise Stefanik set it after Comey took the bait.

Now, Trump just has to fight the big fish before he reels it in.

It’s all over the MSM. Nunes took his info to Trump and then held a well-attended presser at the WH.
