‘That Is So Illegal:’ Trump Targets Comey For Possible Mishandling Of Classified Info
dailycaller.com ^ | 7/10/17 | Saagar Enjeti

Posted on 07/10/2017 10:52:01 AM PDT by ColdOne

President Donald Trump targeted former FBI Director James Comey Monday for allegedly including classified information in personal memos describing his conversations with the president.

Trump’s tweet follows a late Sunday night report from The Hill that four of nine Comey memos included classified information at the secret or confidential level.

Comey’s removal of classified information from his office could put him in breach of FBI protocols that clearly state FBI agents “will not reveal, by any means, any information or material from or related to FBI files or any other information acquired by virtue of my official employment to any unauthorized recipient without prior official written authorization by the FBI.”

Donald’s playing this thing masterfully. Remember, he always promised that he was going to get a consensus of America.

He seems to be doing it by getting the insane secular lefties, those illiberal “liberals,” to shoot their wad in vain, to vastly overplay their badly compromised hand.

The prosecution and penalty is going to be almost an anticlimax. Donald has focused America’s anger and outrage, using great patience.

Just DON'T turn it over to AG Sessions. Then NOTHING will happen.

“will not reveal, by any means, any information or material from or related to FBI files...”

Clinton white house. 900 or so FBI files. Zero prosecutions.

I’m hopeful that the Trump administration will have a much better record of prosecuting crimes perpetrated by rogue FBI people.

Prejudicing the jury pool. Not good IMHO.

Can the President personally file the indictment?

That would be such a sight. Show it to the TV cameras as he takes it to the Federal court. No, Donald ain’t skeered to take this bull by the horns.

Yup, if it’s illegal what’s the next logical step? Investigation. Then Grand Jury.

Mr. Comey, do you prefer stripes (black/white) or solids (orange)? We’ll need some extra time to order in some XX Longs...

I’d have mixed sentiments about it.

Given that we CAN still find people who have been living in a cave, it’s not an insuperable problem.

Still, some will complain that people who have been living in a cave are not his peers.

Maybe, after Donald has good and shamed Comey... he pardons Comey. NOT an orthodox move, but maybe a wise one under a larger law, heaven’s law.

I hope so! I wanna see some metaphorical political knee capping and curb stomping. I wanna see some metaphorical political castrating and mutilating. I wanna see some professional politicians and bureaucrats howl, then go to jail.

Same. Chomping at the bit for it, actually.
