Comey now claims he deleted his original memos, and the professor he gave a copy to is in hiding. Totally normal.
“The idea of the FBI director not keeping an electronic or paper copy of an accurate and critical memo he wrote is absurd. “
No, its not absurd, it’s CRIMINAL! Prosecute him, and dismiss Mueller!
“Whose premeditation, though? Comeys, or someone elses?”
I really did believe Comey’s https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system July 5, 2016, speech was made for sincere and professional reasons, even though it was wrong in a number of ways.
I even assumed his https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/10/28/us/politics/fbi-letter.html?_r=0 reluctant letter that the investigation was back on was released under pressure from senior men in the FBI, but only reluctant because he did not want to influence the election.
It takes a lot for me to conclude that someone is moral scum, but former-Director Comey has reached that point. I now realize that I was completely wrong on Comey’s fundamental character. My best read now is that the July speech was to give Hillary cover, and the October letter was only sent because it would hurt Hillary less than the leaks he was warned would flood out.
Since Hillary’s loss? Comey seems to have been a partisan, one of the top tier aides to those orchestrating the “Resist” and impeachment movements. It looks like Comey was fabricating leaks in favor of and even evidence for impeachment. There used to be laws about conspiracy to overthrow the government of the United States, back when the rule of law mattered.
Yeah this is straight off Twitter so it means jack needs more confirmation before we get all excited. Comey very deliberately tried to lay a trap. He a cagy bastdard.
Maybe he meant that he deleted his original memos right after he did a copy/paste into the manuscript of his book. It’s a Clintonesque lie. He DID delete the memos - technically. But they still exist.
Which is why they should go after Coney for both leaking and perjury among other things. The expression “throw the book at him.” should apply with regard to charges.
If Comey was so concerned, why didn’t he file an official FBI form FD-302 which is used for reporting Information That May Become Testimony.?
No he hasn’t. How did he ever get such a sterling reputation?
I don’t know what’s going on - but there’s something seriously sketchy about the man.
Comey the phony is weaving quite the tangled web of lies, and the gutless GOP should call him out!
>>He seems like a sociopath who believes he is starring in his own personal narrative.<<
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes, incapable of keeping the lies straight. Impulsively driven to self-promote with such lies in a vain effort to ameliorate the pain of knowing he is nothing but an empty suit permanently ruined by countless stains of corruption.
There is no “there could have been a memo”, it either existed or it didn’t. Comey testified under oath that it existed. Regardless of the ability to produce it, Comey can be charged with leaking and likely destruction of government property if he can’t produce the document. If he admits the memo was a fabrication he then gets with perjury.
Dictated / Deleted - what difference does it make!
Probably on the same index page in the back of the Clever Spider Guide to Web Weaving.
Nobody is smart enough to lie.
Comey’s either a liar, or a liar. Bottom line....he’s a liar.
ALL his personal electronic devices should be confiscated and searched
Therefore this was evidence material to a pending matter. See -- 8 U.S. Code § 1519 - Destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in Federal investigations and bankruptcy
Whoever knowingly alters, destroys, mutilates, conceals, covers up, falsifies, or makes a false entry in any record, document, or tangible object with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States or any case filed under title 11, or in relation to or contemplation of any such matter or case, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.
Now they’re kicking around the idea of having Comey testify again. Why?!? The man is an attention whore; “courting” him day in and day out is just feeding the pig. The best thing TPTB in DC can do is to ignore him.
Truth is, there never was any memos. Comey is a big liar and dem political hack.
He needs to be behind bars.
Comey is probably also a cornered liar.
This sounds crooked as hell. What is he hiding from his conversations with Trump? Did his testimony distort what Trump said even compared to what was in his own memos? Were there other things in the memos that paint Trump in a good or exculpatory light that he doesnt want to get out, or did Comey foolishly write something incriminating about himself?
