Ex-FBI Official Questions Why There Were No Comey Memos On Obama, Clinton

In his testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday, former FBI director James Comey described his practice of keeping detailed notes on his interactions with President Donald Trump. But the former director admitted that he never kept such memos when serving under President Barack Obama, despite observing behavior from that administration that concerned him.

James Kallstrom, a former FBI assistant director who spent nearly three decades at the bureau, questioned why Comey felt the need to produce the memos on Trump, but failed to document incidents of political interference in the organization by the Obama administration.

"It just continues to amaze me ... the fact that [Comey] felt compelled to write these memos concerning his meetings with President Trump, but he apparently never felt compelled to write a memo when the Justice Department wouldn't allow him to use the word 'investigation' concerning the Hillary Clinton investigation," Kallstrom told Sinclair Broadcast Group.

Parlely Baer wrote: “Comey didn’t take notes on 0bama or Clinton because he IS Team 0bama and Team Clinton.”

That be the answer. When you are on their team no need to take memo’s. When Comey was in “enemy” territory he was taking notes and hoping for a special prosecutor.

From Comey’s written testimony:

The President signaled the end of the briefing by thanking the group and telling them all that he wanted to speak to me alone. I stayed in my chair. As the participants started to leave the Oval Office, the Attorney General lingered by my chair, but the President thanked him and said he wanted to speak only with me. …When the door by the grandfather clock closed, and we were alone, the President began by saying, “I want to talk about Mike Flynn.”

From Angler:

Bush stood as the meeting ended, crossing behind Cheney’s chair. Comey moved in the opposite direction, on his way out. He had nearly reached the grandfather clock at the door when the president said, “Jim, can I talk to you for a minute?” … This time the vice president was not invited.
