7 Jun: Fox News: Alan Dershowitz: Comey’s statement fails to deliver the smoking gun Democrats craved
The president can, as a matter of constitutional law, direct the attorney general, and his subordinate, the Director of the FBI, tell them what to do, whom to prosecute and whom not to prosecute. Indeed, the president has the constitutional authority to stop the investigation of any person by simply pardoning that person...
Nor is it an obstruction of justice to ask for loyalty from the director of the FBI, who responded “you will get that (’honest loyalty’) from me.”
Comey understood that he and the president may have understood that vague phrase — “honest loyalty” — “differently.” But no reasonable interpretation of those ambiguous words would give rise to a crime.
Many Trump opponents were hoping that the Comey statement would provide smoking guns.
I listened to a bit of the hearings on radio, and heard a democrat, very self-righteously, saying that the American people demanded to know such and such.
The fact that Comey misled the American people about Trump, that he was the target of his investigation, is an outrageous abuse of power and a monstrous deception. Comey is one sick dude.

Thanks for the ping, post, link. James Commie, swamp creature. A strange animal indeed.
