He is in a bind

If he produces the stupid freakin manufactured memo shouldnt he be charged with sitting on it for three months as well as perjury with respect to his previous testimony?

All he has to do is give the word to the Army.

The majority will absolutely follow the order.

I’ve always wondered if this guy has a drinking problem.

BTW, his friend who appeared on PBS is a nut, too. Imagine saying that your six foot eight friend was trying to blend into the Oval Office blue drapes by wearing a blue suit! If you look at the photo, it’s clear Comey wasn’t trying to blend into anything. He was directly across from Trump, in his line of vision and could be seen by Helen Keller. It was such a bizarre thing to say.

“s there anyone on the committee who is not a Trump hater?”

Well, it’s in Washington D.C. sooooo no.

He didn't agree to an open testimony, it is what he wanted .... WE agreed with him. IIRC, he was offered closed doors, but he wanted an open testimony. Worth watching and paying attention to.

The reason he wants open testimony is so that at any time, he can claim that information is "classified" and can't respond. In a closed session, the only congress people in the room would be people who have the clearance to hear classified information, and would have oversight authority over the FBI. He would have no place to hide in a closed session.

Comey wants to testify in public for an obvious reason. Revenge against the person that fired him. Comey supposedly took good notes. Trump is politically incorrect and a loose cannon. Put all that together and Comey could say semi-accurate things about Trump that allow dems to portray as bad even though they were innocent remarks.

Are we gonna sit quietly while they take down Trump?

Our only avenue is through the ballot box. Electing one man and expecting him to stand-up by himself is not going to do it. If they are successful, imagine what a powerful weapon Trump will be against the forces that be. Imagine Trump having a rally in the heart of the dem stronghold the night the senate votes for impeachment. It would be full to rafters and then some. Trump will not go quietly into the night.

Before agreeing to be there, he confirmed that there will be cameras. As they used to say about Chuck Schumer, the most dangerous place to be is between Comey and a camera.

And Trump called him a “show-boater”. Nah. Can’t be true. ;)

You're absolutely right.

Mueller might just step in and say....Oh no....you can't testify to anyone Mr. Comey and you will testify under my jurisdiction only.

“Time for Comey to prove he is a Democrat party hack.”

Might be a good time for Ryan and McConnell to come out of that closet, too.

Standard Comedy answer in open session> I can only answer that question in a closed session.

The army had an official hangman , John Woods

He used rope

The only way to stop the current communist coup underway in DC is to use the military after declaring a state of emergency.

Shut down hostile propaganda, arrest the leakers and other domestic enemy

Thousands of arrests, suspend habeus corpus, seize their assets

Jeff Sessions cleaned out Comedy’s office.
Any notes not posted to the FBI system might as well be his grocery shopping list

Is there a reason that this is being done in the Senate instead of the House? Did the uniparty want the Senate for a particular reason?

“they are not accountable to the same laws the right is”

I understand what you mean, but actually the statement is wrong. They will be held accountable just like everyone else.

So are you suggesting the only place an FBI employee can take notes is via an FBI computer?

Is there anyone on the committee who is not a Trump hater?

Warner? Einstein? Cotton maybe. Wyden? Old Corney?

The House committee has Republicans that WILL ask that POS about his memos on Hussein and SHRILLARY.

Not sure about the Senate.
