James Comey: How Trump Co-opts Leaders Like Bill Barr
NY Times ^ | 5/1/2019 | James Comey

Posted on 05/01/2019 4:33:32 PM PDT by CaptainK

People have been asking me hard questions. What happened to the leaders in the Trump administration, especially the attorney general, Bill Barr, who I have said was due the benefit of the doubt?

How could Mr. Barr, a bright and accomplished lawyer, start channeling the president in using words like “no collusion” and F.B.I. “spying”? And downplaying acts of obstruction of justice as products of the president’s being “frustrated and angry,” something he would never say to justify the thousands of crimes prosecuted every day that are the product of frustration and anger?

Comey knows what is coming. Barr is going to hold him accountable. Comey must demonize Barr so can call his coming prosecution a political act.

This is exactly right.

This man is seriously mentally and ethically ill

Partner, personally, I think that every Freeper knows that Comey former chief of the FBI is seriously mentally ill by working for the "Big Witch---Miss Hillary" at the Clintoon Foundation and "The Witch and Bill Clintoon" paid him $2.5 million a year.

This guy should be sweating since we have a really good Attorney General Barr, which BTW we have not had a really good AG since Edwin Meese during President Ronald Wilson Reagan. Friggin Unbelievable!!!

BTW, Rosenweasel paid Muellar starting at a cool $2.5 Million. We have already connected the dots and the previous administration wanted to do a coup attempt on President Trump.

I do not know if we can get the "America Hating Piece of Work Obama." We know that every Freeper is so P.O.ed at this America Hating Piece of Work Obama for getting elected as POTUS and for not getting up and leaving that church he attended when the preacher mentioned GD America every other word. We know these facts!!!

The "Giant Sixth Grade Brain Journalists" elected that "America Hating Piece of Work Obama" and also cried with Miss Hillary when she lost to President Trump in the 2016 Presidential elections. Miss Hillary is so out of touch and a very sickly woman. She is also mentally ill and does not even believe in the "Rule of Law"

The MSM reports Fake News every single hour of the day. They have no shame whatsoever!

I honestly believe Comey will be happier in prison.

He needs to come out of the closet, get cuffed, and take a long slow ride in the back of a cruiser to prison.

Go home James. Be with your husband, Bald Headed John.

This will all disappear if a democrat gets elected president. The only thing they can do now is create and maintain a narrative the democrat base can cling to and hop a democrat can win.

If Trump is not re-elected this will be his greatest failure.

His reticence to take action early and sit on Jeff Sessions for two years will be his legacy. He should have initiated an investigation immediately upon Comey’s firing.

The NYT’s illegal relationship to domestic propaganda operations by the intelligence community needs to be officially investigated, exposed, and prosecuted.

Sorry, Comey, but no liberal newscritter will ever ask you a hard question.
Ever.
Because neither the “journalist” or you are very bright.
Or honest.

The New York Times doesn’t have an illegal relationship with the domestic propaganda operations of the intelligence community. It IS a domestic propaganda operation of the intelligence community.

Maybe someone should accuse James Comey of something he wasn’t guilty of based on groundless political opposition research and persist for 2 years with totally unrelated prosecutions of unrelated people trying to get them to lie about Comey. I suspect Comey would get frustrated and angry.

I do not remember Mark Felt/Deepthroat serving any jail time. What year(s) was he in the can for Watergate? I do remember he and the then new FBI head, L. Patrick Gray, got caught pulling some illegal, no warrants, entries into some group’s, (Black Panthers, Weather Underground???), homes in the 1970’s. They were convicted but RR gave them a pardon in the early 1980’s before they made a trip to the clink. Oh well, maybe I’m thinking of someone other than Deepthroat.

Why the hell would NYT publish this cowardly, confused, narcissistic, corrupt person’s thoughts?

I know why,...Comey is the NYT’s poster boy.

He has all their characteristics, as listed above.

Yes, I realized I should have tweaked my grammar after I typed that. The "illegal" belongs in front of "domestic" above.
