PERJURY: Comey Lies That Pres. Trump Tweet Prompted Leak
One America News Network ^ | OAN Newsroom

Posted on 06/08/2017 4:13:54 PM PDT by sdthree

During the hearing, Senator Susan Collins asked Comey if he had shown copies of his memos to “anyone outside” of the Justice Department.

Comey replied, “yes,” saying he made the decision to do so after President Trump tweeted about possible audio recordings the day after he was fired.

However, that information seems to be inaccurate, because the memo was leaked to the New York Times May 11th and President Trump tweeted on the 12th.

Comey said he hoped to benefit from that leak.

-- I knew the DC swamp was bad, and its creatures weren't going to leave gracefully. But mygosh. The swampthings would rather destroy the nation than cede power. --

Compared with others in power, and with the press, Comey is a choirboy, clean as the driven snow. Seriously. On a comparative scale. They all admit it. The Senate panel members all asserted that Comey is honest and honorable, and on their scale of bad <--> good, Comey scores at the "good" end.

At times, Comey is able to see the future and he saw Trump's tweet on the 10th, two days before it happened.

So he is in the clear.

While the Times did publish an article on May 11 describing the January 27 dinner in which Trump purportedly asked Comey for his loyalty, the Times cited officials who recalled Comey’s descriptions of the evening to them, not the memos themselves.

That's my understanding, too. OANN may have stepped in it with this article.

so this memo, was it written on a piece of paper, in his DayTimer, a computer journal, something, anything to give it some linearity other than made up out of whole cloth?

Comey is a weird dude. He had no problem with the muzzie brotherhood infiltrating the whitehouse. No investigation. Nothing. But a patriotic president(Trump) arrives and he feels awkward, bullied, and writes memos and then leaks them. Unbelievable. Does our great nations National Security not mean a damn thing to these weird elitists reptilian scumbags.

“The swampthings would rather destroy the nation than cede power.”

Many of them appear to be like Obama — they want to destroy the country. It’s not a sacrifice they are willing to make. It’s the whole point of their being in power.

The lying POS Comey lied under oath before the Senate multiple times. He’s such an egotistical worm he couldn’t keep his lies straight.

“”Anyone hear mccane today? He was actually ok.””

You must have heard a different McCain. The hearing and Comey’s statements were about Russian influences and McCain was talking about Hillary’s emails... You could see the consternation on Comey’s face when he kept trying to steer McCain back to the subject...Couldn’t help but wonder what Outnumbered was going to cover if they got back on the air after the hearing was adjourned - what would Megan McCain think about her dad’s mumblings or would it not come up out of courtesy to his daughter but I don’t think it came on.

http://time.com/4811311/john-mccain-james-comey-testimony/

“”Sen. John McCain, the last senator to question the former FBI director, pursued a line of questioning connecting the Russian meddling investigation to Hillary Clinton’s emails, leaving much of the public confused.

The Arizona Republican repeatedly juxtaposed Comey’s public announcements about conclusions in the probe of Clinton’s private email server with the ongoing nature of the look into whether there was any Trump campaign collusion with the Kremlin.

“I think there’s a double standard there to tell you the truth,” he said.””

“”What I was trying to get at was whether Mr. Comey believes that any of his interactions with the President rise to the level of obstruction of justice.””

Then that’s what you should have asked, John - even tho’ the question had already been asked by others and answered by Comey. Get to the point or is that impossible in DC?

I could be mistaken, but I believe perjury requires that the lie be material.

I’m not sure Comey’s lie is material to what the Senate was investigating.

May 11. New York Times publishes article providing Comey's version of events regarding private dinner with President Trump.

May 12. President Trump writes the "tapes" tweet.

May 16. New York Times publishes first article on the leaked Comey memo.

OANN's timeline doesn't hold up.

> >What I’d like to know is when did President Trump find out that Comey was the leaker in the FBI?< <

That’s why he cleared out the room.
And that’s why Comey admitted his crime- he knew he was caught.

That will never change.....well until a Democrat is in office. They know today Trump was vindicated but the truth doesn’t matter. Trump just needs to roll with his agenda. He is in God’s protective hands.
