It Took a Freshman GOP Congresswoman To Pull The Mask From FBI Director Comey…

Representative Elise M. Stefanik is a young, freshman republican congresswoman from the Albany New York area. And using a probative questioning timeline, she single-handily pulled the mask from FBI Director James Comey, yet no-one seemed to notice.

Obviously Ms. Stefanik has not been in the swamp long enough to lose her common sense.

In the segment of the questioning below Rep. Stefanik begins by asking director Comey what are the typical protocols, broad standards and procedures for notifying the Director of National Intelligence, the White House and senior congressional leadership (aka the intelligence Gang of Eight), when the FBI has opened a counter-intelligence investigation.

The parseltongue response from Comey is a generalized reply (with uncomfortable body language) that notification of counter-intel investigations are discussed with the White House, and other pertinent officials, on a calendar basis, ie. “quarterly”.

With the statement that such counter-intel notifications happen “generally quarterly”, and against the backdrop that Comey stated in July of 2016 a counter-intel investigation began, Stefanik asks:

…”when did you notify the White House, the DNI and congressional leadership”?

"Didn’t he just as quickly close the Clinton email case as well?"

Yep. He reopened it on October 28th, and closed it again on November 6th.

[mass55th]

And they want us to believe that within that 8 month period that they never advised anyone about the investigation, that they weren’t eavesdropping, wiretapping, intercepting emails, etc. during all that time? I might have been born at night...but it wasn’t last night.

I’m thinking Comet doesn’t have a lot of field time.

He’s been covering for the Clintons since 1995 - Whitewater, the 2001 pardons, etc. were all his. Kind of like obscure Congresssman Gerald Ford getting placed on the Warren Commission. Or Dan Rather in Dallas 22 November 1963. It’s what you know but don’t tell that moves political careers.

Who has been arrested for releasing Flynn’s name?

[bIlluminati]

he can be fired, just like Scalia was fired. Of course, you must understand that his patron is the Clinton Family, and there’s only one way to lose that gig...

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

With that, treason and prison for Comey too.

[A CA Guy]

No one, but having his named leaked was a felony. A felony that no one is prosecuting because nobody has found leakers or jailed yet the reporter who took the leak for not revealing the source of a crime.

[mass55th]

"Who has been arrested for releasing Flynn’s name?"

No one yet, but members of the House Intel Committee have asked the FBI, CIA, NSA how many Americans’ private conversations were improperly ‘unmasked’ amid legal surveillance activities in the last six months, which they believe happened to President Donald Trump’s former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.

I haven’t been able to find anything that refers to Flynn’s location at the time of the call. Thursday, December 29th, was the day Obama placed the sanctions on Russia, and it is cited as the day they claim Flynn spoke to the Russian Ambassador about the sanctions. Now frankly, Obama placed those sanctions on Russia for meddling in the U.S. election, but no evidence has ever been proven that they ever did interfere.

[Mike Darancette]

What with his involvement since July in the investigation of both presidential candidates and the fact he is a suspect in (at least) the leaking of the Flynn conversation Comey should immediately recuse himself as Sessions has done.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Lies trip over themselves sooner or later.

So was Comey in the bag for the Rats? He did the Kabuki dance that they choreographed. Trouble was, it strained credulity.

[hoosiermama]

FBI is not investigating who the leaker is because they know the leaker. It is them/him

Pizza lover?

[silverleaf]

Obama placed those sanctions on Russia to booby trap a Trump administration move toward better relations with Russia

Thjngs like US-Russian cooperation in dealing with ISIS and realpolitik in addressing Crimean- Russian historic ties

Elise Stefanik is one sharp-minded Congresswoman!

According to the Wikipedia, at age 30, she is the youngest woman ever elected to the House (the minimum age is 25).

The deep state uses databases of personal information to extort everyone even Trump. If Trump were not being extorted he would have said or done something by now. Odds are his children have been called out by the deep state and he is protecting them.

Congresswoman Stefanik is not what would pass for conservative in my neck of the woods, but good on her in this case. She appears to have given it a try rather than phoning it in like a typical tenured GOP-e hack.

(To be fair to tenured GOP-e hacks, I think the Darrell Issas of the GOP-e will eventually get a scalp… it will be for the Democrats, but they will eventually get one.)

As for Comey, I can only surmise that he's either dirty or squirrely, or a combination of both. This much can be said for him without any speculation: he is doing a great job of keeping the President and the Russians under the microscope, while Obama, the Clintons (including their Bush "relatives") and the Islamists can go back to undermining what little is left of our nation with the help of a virtual MSM blackout. "Heck of a job there, Jimmy."

I saw one assertion that Flynn was in the Dominican Republic at the time of the conversations in question he had with the Ambassador. I find this misdirection because Flynn had to know all bets were off the table in regards to surveillance if he were out of the country. I think it was Flynn’s unregistered lobbying for Turkey that got him booted.
