The loyalty question is area that has significance. It is my thinking that the request for Comey’s loyalty was a test of Comey’s reaction. President Trump was testing Comey to see how susceptible he was to doing political favors. The evidence of this came from the way Comey operated as a shield to the Hillary email investigation. Trump wanted to see how Comey worked. Did he have any noble qualities or was he corrupt whose actions were to garner political favor. Was Comey really a Democrat operative who did nothing about the criminal activity of the Obama Regime and the Clinton crime family? Trump was testing Comey to see what baits work for him. It would confirm to him that Comey needs to be fired.

The inquisition that we witnessed today has backfired against these demons of the Swamp.

Hearing comey ...tonight’s clips... he should be taken to court. He would not say Trump was not being investigated, until today. He allowed Trump to be persecuted every day by the media, the dems and the left, when one word from him would have solved most of what they were doing to Trump every day.. he had to hear it and must have gotten his kicks out of knowing he could, but didn’t say what he said today... he had no problem hanging Trump out to dry! If it was Joe Blo, he’d be prosecuted by the left.. by the courts... and this guy has NO rights to any favoritism.. take him to the courts. If he was afraid and nervous today and in the presence of Trump, let him sit in jail for a time.

There is no excuse for what he did to Trump ... and today’s testimony ... hard to figure... he sat there and said he was weak, afraid, and acted like a kid... but he also exonerated Trump and maybe he didn’t aim to do that... but he did, so did he know the difference? I think the guy has half lost his mind.. otherwise, how could he ever have been the head of the FBI? And are there other FBI agents who are embarrassed by comey?.. angry at comey? He committed the unimaginable today by what he did for hillary and what he did to Trump! Sat there and admitted it as if he was sure he would never be held accountable or that what he did was even wrong.

So what does that have to do with perjury?

Prosecuted for leaking classified material. That being the memos. Comey is in big legal trouble.

Comey never described the memos as classified in his written testimony or in his answers to senators’ questions on Thursday. At one point in his written statement, he explicitly said he “immediately prepared an unclassified memo of the conversation about Flynn.” He also did not correct senators who referred to the memos as unclassified multiple times throughout the hearing, despite taking pains to avoid discussing potentially classified matters at other times.

According to the attorneys on Fox News tonight Comey broke at least 2 Federal laws with the memos. They are Federal property and of private conversations with the President. We shall see.

I'm with you totally. Sessions is not up to this job in any way shape or form. We need someone who wants to help drain the swamp by prosecuting the corruption in DC and that's half the swamp.

We need Rudy G. I don't really care if he wants the job or not, lol. He needs to step up to help save the Republic.

They know Comey is in serious trouble. I would be fairly certain when the FBI director has confidential conversations with the President of the United States the contents of those conversations are automatically considered classified. Those memo's are also key evidence in this inquiry and were leaked with the admitted goal of causing an special counsel which would harm the president.

The reason they keep saying "unclassified" is because they know those conversations ARE classified and Comey has committed a serious crime.

I’m curious about the 2 unnamed sources for the May, 11th article. If one turns out to be the friend that Comey gave the memos to, then release of the memos and realease of the information in the memos becomes one combined effort,IMO.

Wasn’t there a dust up about reporting the contents without actually seeing the memos?

What if Trump simply said, “this freak show is over as far as I’m concerned” and got back to his agenda — the one that’s going to really make America great again?

What an incredible idea!

They should all be arrested for espionage and held pending trial. No bail, and passports revoked.

And I don’t wanna hear he was a private citizen at the time Comey leaked the memo to his friend to get to the NYT. I know the oath you take and the documents you sign when you get a job working with classified information. AS LONG AS YOU LIVE you are still bound to protect that information even if you are no longer employed as an official. You could leave the FBI and go work for Dairy Queen and you better not give out classified information you once knew or had.

If Comey thought it was perfectly OK to leak the memos, why did he not just publicly reveal them, himself, instead? There would be no need for this sneaky leak through a third party.

Sure, perjury and obstruction could be ancillary charges, but I’d think the clear classification of his contemporaneous notes typed on an FBI computer as government docs rather than personal docs would be most straightforward and would lead to the most time locked away. No?

And I’d like to see him both frog-marched and singing like a canary. I want both him and the bigger fish fried.

Comey leaked information from protected conversations with the President. Comey admitted he leaked it in hopes of getting a special prosecutor.

“Gents: Ok-so he took us for a ride. His actions were harmless(no effect). I say pardon him and thereby rattle the cages of the rats. More fun that way.”

Sorry sport Comey broke the law in several areas by leaking documents, those notes were the property of the federal government and the conversations were protected Presidential conversations.

I’m tired of faux conservatives wanting to let the criminal democrats go free.

LOCK HIM UP.

Mr. Trump go on the offensive. Crush these assholes into dust. Build a fire under the AG or get a new one.
