Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) on Tuesday demanded “immediate emergency hearings” over President Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey.
“Congress needs to have immediate emergency hearings to obtain testimony directly from Attorney General [Jeff] Sessions, the deputy attorney general and FBI Director Comey,” Cummings said in a statement.
“The White House was already covering up for [former national security adviser] Michael Flynn by refusing to provide a single document to Congress, and now the President fired the one independent person who was doing the most to investigate President Trump and his [2016] campaign over allegations of coordination with Russia.”
Cummings added that Sessions’s involvement in Comey’s ouster is “mindboggling,” noting that Sessions stated that he would recuse himself from investigations into any ties between Trump and Russia. “There is now a crisis of confidence at the Justice Department, and President Trump is not being held accountable because House Republicans refuse to work with us to do our job,” the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee added.
The White House announced Tuesday afternoon that Trump had fired Comey following recommendations from Sessions and his deputy, Rod Rosenstein, over his handling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton
's handling of classified emails.
“While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to lead the bureau,” he wrote in a letter to Comey dated Tuesday.
“It is essential that we find new leadership for the FBI that restores public trust and confidence in its vital law enforcement mission.”

Soros does a spitshine on Elijiahs head while he is "servicing" the Party line.
Comedy learned he was fired while addressing FBI employees in LA. TVs in the background began flashing the news.
That means, the White House leakers are no longer employed!
They and Comedy are out of there/here!
LA News Copter picture of FBI SUV taking the former FBI director, Comedy, away from his disrupted speech.
Thanks to Doughty One for this follow up pic, showing the abandoned vehicle across the border into Mexico! Now Comedy is over the border in Tijuana..., on foot...
buffoon who sabotaged his committee’s hearings and should have been sanctioned by the house.
I say....do as the democrats and Obama/Clinton minions. Just refuse to show up. Period.
Trump doesn’t even need a reason to fire Comey. The Director serves at the President’s pleasure.
Oh we just can’t take all this serious until Sheila Jackson Lee chimes in.
Sorry libs. Trump is totally within his Presidential authority here, and the GOP controls congress.
So suck it losers. You aren’t going to get an impeachment, and if you do you’re going to regret it. You aren’t going to get a resignation, because Trump is all in.
Interesting that the White House leaks stopped about the time K.T. McFarland was announced for an ambassador job instead of being McMaster’s deputy. And then there was the WH Usher. Any other coincidental leavings?
LOL
