Keep a Sharp Eye on Charges Comey Leaked Classified Info
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | July 10, 2017 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 07/10/2017 2:17:07 PM PDT by Kaslin

RUSH: Comey and the memos and the memos that he leaked, admittedly leaked, and in part because he wanted special counsel appointed. It is being reported that Comey’s memos were classified and that Comey has leaked classified data in his memos much the same way Hillary was trafficking in classified data on her basement server. Just a little fine point here.

The government has not officially said that Comey’s memos are classified. President Trump tweeted today, “James Comey leaked classified information to the media. That’s so illegal.” We don’t yet know whether that’s the case. TheHill.com has a report on this, and it is based on leaks. There are, again, the usual anonymous sources in government claiming that Comey and some, not all, some of his memos do contain classified information. But the government has not formally said so yet.

Now, it may be a fine point. But, you know, we believe in total accuracy here, and it’s been widely disseminated that Comey’s memos contain classified information, and that’s because another anonymous source is saying so. Anonymous source in a position to know, an anonymous source close to the situation, whatever. But the government, the Trump administration has not taken a formal position. And until that happens, it cannot be asserted that Comey’s memos are actually trafficking in classified.

Now, in the real world they are, because they contain conversations with the president. And this is exactly what did Petraeus in. The great, vaunted David Petraeus, General Petraeus of course let his biographer read some of the documents he had prepared based on his conversations with the president. That’s a no-no. She even had a security clearance. Her security clearance was not high enough to grant her permission to see these things. And that’s why he got in heap big legal doo-doo.

So based on the inference, yeah, you could say that Comey is trafficking in classified information and wasn’t aware of it, but it’s not been formally stated so yet. It’s a fine point. I don’t know if it will be formally stated. Talking about more than half of the memos that he made regarding his conversations with President-Elect Trump and then after he was elected, President Trump after he was inaugurated. So we’ll just keep a sharp eye on this.

Unless we're a banana republic that will require evidence. While the evidence is being gathered the investigations are, for the most part, secret.

With Obama's use of the national security aparatus to spy on political opponents one might argue we are already a banana republic. The elections won't matter if we let that continue, even if some of Trump's base gets their wish for a public investigation. There is still plenty of time for that if that's what it comes to.

There is a much larger list of America's enemies than those.

are walking free and making money.

You don't think they could get unlimited funding from Soros et al if they were of value in destroying America? The fact is that they are tools that can be tossed and replaced with new tools at any moment. Prosecutions made public to make a few people happy doesn't change much. A deterrence is needed and thus some prosecutions for particularly important targets.

What evidence is being gathered against the afore-mentioned scum-wads? Are the Repubs doing anything? Comey did have to testify for a few hours sometime last month.

Period. That was it. End of story.

Except.....

Except there is a Special Counsel (Robert Mueller) investigating crimes.

Investigating Crimes against Trump for crying out loud!!!! Talk about a false narrative getting all the attention. How in the world can democrats involved in leaking emails, involved in releasing top-secret and classified info, and involved in hacking election results DARE to charge Trump with the very crimes THEY committed?

Yet Trump and the Repubs sit back and do NOTHING. Do we or do we not have an Attorney General? I’ve heard we do. Jeff Somebody, right?

Where the hell is he??

/rant off

We are ruled by elitists to whom the law does not apply. They have been selling out Americans for years.

If Sessions is investigating anyone, I have no idea, nor should I. A proper investigation should not be publicized. It should take time to roll smaller fish to get to the larger ones. Lots of immunity was granted by the previous admin and that has to be worked around.

The Mueller investigation needs an appropriate response at some point (e.g. firing). But the other investigations have to be done properly otherwise they are worthless. Then there are the many other problems within Justice and the rest of government to be fixed revolving around entrenched leftists. If they could all be fired tomorrow, great, but they can't. It will take time.
