James Comey had the nerve to testify under oath..."
Revelations that allege former FBI Director James Comey started work on his statement clearing Hillary Clinton of any charges against her long before the FBIs investigation into her email scandal was complete have led one of President Donald Trumps lawyers to brand the FBI investigation a fraud on the American people.
" This new evidence proves that the whole #FBI investigation of the #HillaryClinton email scandal was a sham. #JayLive https://t.co/sCYtMehqMO "

" The American people have been lied to. #Comey pre-determined the outcome of this #FBI investigation from the very beginning. #JayLive "

As reported by Western Journalism, Sens. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., wrote FBI Director Chis Wray earlier this week about the revelation that was contained in partially redacted transcripts of interviews with two FBI officials.
In the interviews, the officials said that months before Comey announced in July that Clinton would not be charged, he had started drafting a statement to announce that result.

You mean to tell me that before the investigation even began, this slime ball Comey had already decided that the vile, evil, foul smelling, liar, cheat, lesbian already knew she was off the hook!!!
I will stand behind My President, but goodness folks, this is disgusting and needs to be made an example of...the Chinese Mafia, the Italian Mafia and the Silcian Mafia are not this bad, and this evil, foul smelling, liar, cheat, lesbian is walking around the streets of America, the one and only America that this evil, foul smelling, liar, cheat, lesbian sold Uranium to Russia so her sexual abuser rapist other half could put money in their bank account...
I think after this I should run for an office...I have Italian Mafia in my background, and being a full fledged Republican all my life didn't think I could make it to first base, but hey after this crapola, I could become POTUS, maybe even the FIRST POTUS FEMALE!!!
Sure. Whatever you say.
Trump fires people he can’t control.
LOL!
Keep digging that hole deeper and deeper.....
Trump’s legal authority over the DOJ is virtually plenary; if he does not “control” the DOJ, it is ONLY because he CHOOSES not to.
No digging here. Just truth.
Buh-bye, allah!
Why accuse Comey of fraud and lying to Congress when nothing is being done about it? It only shows that the elites are above the law.

Roger that. I will continue to pray for the loons on this site who compared Trump to Biblical characters and said he was revealed in prophesy.
Sessions is the reason the Clintons skate. Trump asked Sessions straight up why Hillary was getting a pass. Sessions flipped him off.
Jeff feels free to flip the bird because Trump is between a rock and a hard place. If he fires Sessions, all hell breaks loose. Both houses of Congress and every person in the thousands-strong press corps would scream from now till 2020.
The knowledge that everyone has his back makes Sessions insolent and cocky. He doesn’t care what Trump says. He’s secure in the conviction that Trump can’t fire him without ruining his first term.
And Jeff is probably right.
I sympathize with your view, and believe it is largely correct. However, the reason we voted for Trump, or at least the reason that I (BOLD/UNDERSCORE) voted for Trump is that I believed that he, UNLIKE Mitt, or JEB, or ANYBODY else, would say “Screw that crap!!!! Let all hell break loose, let both houses have a fit, let the MSM wet their sub-human pants. I DO NOT CARE!!!!!! I am Donald Trump and I DO NOT CARE!!!! Justice is justice, and if Sessions will not do the job, then his ass is FIRED!!!”
That’s what I expected from Trump (and that IS what he delivers quite often) and that’s why I’m disappointed that he has not moved aggressively against the corruption.
There are MANY ways in which this country is in deep crap, and Trump has done admirably about many of them, however, one of the worst things about this country is the set in stone idea that Democrats are more above the law than is God Almighty himself (Lois Lerner, the IRS in general, Hillary, fast and furious, etc. etc. until you want to puke) and we NEED SOMEBODY to do SOMETHING about this.
Do you think the AG should. register on FR so he can keep you informed on the status of all ongoing investigations?
Certainly would be helpful
You can’t blame Trump for getting blindsided by Sessions. Jeff fooled an awful lot of people. The blame for that is on the duplicitous Sessions, not Trump.
At this point it’s a calculus. In what scenario can Trump accomplish more for America: A, a chaotic scream/hate-fest in which all day every day is devoted to trashing Trump AND there is no AG at all bc the Senate refuses to confirm a replacement for Jeff [and probably wouldn’t confirm anyone to any other position either], or B, Trump gets as much done as he can despite the traitorous Justice Dept.
For now B may be the only practical option. Hopefully things change, perhaps as a result of the midterms. But the bottom line is that Sessions screwed us over, and nobody is to blame for that but Jeff.
It seems like Congress has know this for a long time. When Ratcliffe questioned Comey back in September of 2016, he asked questions which would seem to lead Comey to perjure himself regarding his decision to exonerate already being made. Ratcliffe even said that the only reason to give immunity to two potential witnesses was if the outcome had already been decided.

Perhaps. Perhaps.
But Trump is Sessions’ DIRECT, CONSTITUTIONALLY APPOINTED, SUPERIOR. If you had written on the day before the election that Trump’s subordinates would laugh in his face and flip him off, and that the politics of the entire thing would leave Trump stymied, you’d have been ridiculed beyond all imagining.
I (BOLD/UNDERSCRORE again) certainly would not have believed it.
Maybe you are right, and Trump is left politically impotent by things beyond his control, but if the nation cannot defeat this set-in-stone notion that democrats, including antifa, are above the law, then Trump’s election is meaningless.
Trump can easily move Sessions to another position. If Sessions resigns at that point, so be it.
Love Sessions. But could care a less if Trump moves him to another position. We voted for Trump. Trump appointed people he thought were in it to win it and be brave against corruption.
Sessions is a great public servant. Trump is President. We voted for Trump and we want an Attorney General who is willing to take the gloves off.
Holder was an in your face AG who despised the rule of law and refused to prosecute those on the Left who broke the law. He was a bold partisan hack just like Loretta Lynch. As was Sally Yates. Notice the left never apologizes for going full court press against the rule of law and doesn't hid their political agenda.
Sessions is a fine man and a great public servant. We need a Chris Christie type at AG who isn't afraid of the Leftist Media. An AG how is a pitbull against the Swamp.
Trumps supporters approve of this message. Mueller scam investigation needs to be closed in less than 30 days. If not, Sessions needs to be moved. Comey and Mueller are SWAMP King Pins and are corrupt. Their attempt to take down a duly elected sitting President need to be stifled in the next 30 days.
Never in our history has a duly elected sitting President had to withstand a BOGUS investigation, witch hunt, fishing expedition, similar to the Mueller's corrupt assignment to take down Trump. Mueller will fail. Trump needs to reassign Sessions, and let the media and Congress howl for a week. Sessions needs to be an even bigger supporter of Trump on national news if/when he is moved for the greater good. Just like Bannon and Gorka who are now able to do even more good for We the People. Sessions needs to have interviews lined up with President Trump made the right decision and I support him 1000%. That is the Sessions we know.
Friday’s document dump?
I don’t think Trump knew the degree to which Ryan and McConnell would undercut him. He probably imagined that once he became POTUS they’d work with him.
Instead they are undermining him more than the Democrats. It’s hard for us on FR to grasp how politically isolated Trump is. He’s the only POTUS in modern times—with the possible exception of Nixon—who has no congressional allies at all. We speak boldly of what Trump should do, but it’s a different ballgame when you know No One will back you up.
Congress is rotten to the core. Maybe Trump can pick up an ally or two in the midterms. We’ll see.
