DOJ will not prosecute Comey for leaking memos after IG referral: sources
Fox News ^ | 08.01.2019 | Brooke Singman, Jake Gibson

Posted on 08/01/2019 9:52:32 AM PDT by dware

The Justice Department has decided against prosecuting former FBI Director James Comey for leaking classified information following a referral from the department’s inspector general, sources familiar with the deliberations told Fox News.

“Everyone at the DOJ involved in the decision said it wasn’t a close call,” one official said. “They all thought this could not be prosecuted.”

Comey penned memos memorializing his interactions with President Trump in the days leading up to his firing. He then passed those documents to a friend, Columbia University Law Professor Daniel Richman, who gave them to The New York Times. Comey admitted to that arrangement during congressional testimony.

Creepy Comey is at it again on Twitter... mocking us all.


Graham threatened Comey on twitter on MARCH 25. And what have we gotten Graham since then? Nothing. Now he’s going on Senate recess meaning another near two months of nothing guaranteed. With Republicans like that the Deep State doesn’t need Democrats.

'member when I told you how you mix movies and daily life together, without realizing it?

Pretty sure I realized it. I had to find the gif and add the text. Unless I did it in black-out mode.

And did you just invoke the South Park 'member berries' episode?

Up your game and learn to meme, bruh. Here, lemme help.

A gift for you, because I love you.

He sounds confident that the IG has determined that the public servants were merely protecting us from a “threat”.

Oh, wait. One more thing to think about.

The IG recommended prosecution for the memo leaks. It was AG Barr that SUPPOSEDLY declined to prosecute.

So I doubt very much that the IG is gonna determine he was "merely protecting us from a threat". He already didn't, if the rumors are true.

How is it that a reading of Samuel Adams led you to a belief in an unidentified internet presence, one who drops coded messages to you and others? Are there other waves or frequencies that come through to you?

Have you ever been to Edison, NJ?

Lol!!!

About Duke Snyder. My SIL's, father had a very similar experience with him at Ebbets field. 70 years later he still talks about the guy like he was a real POS.

Some people just can’t understand optics, they let their emotions get the best of them...

“the president’s supporters will be glad AG Barr exercised restraint in the Comey case. The people will be assured that any prosecutions going forward will be well-founded, readily provable, and completely devoid of the taint of politics”

What a cute little nerdling confab.

Tell us more of your fascinating memories, you old gay fossils.

Wise decision to call your girlfriend in for backup, Preston. Things weren't working out well for you.

Yap, this Preston cat is an emotional time bomb. I can just see him flapping his hands all excited while he copies and pastes the same burns over and over.

And now with the burns from before the big one, WWI.

Opinion And Analysis For The Derp Jon Preston

(excerpt)

Trump's making his moves, we don't have the big picture, but one thing I do know: he knows what he's doing.

Those are his own handpicked people handling this.

But yeah, if you buy the narrative he's an incompetent buffoon, sure you'll be panicking right now. Not only is Trump in no danger from Mueller or the House investigations, he's on OFFENSE right now and kicking major ass on multiple fronts.

But people need some bad news to freak out over in the midst of all the winning...

Thus far, only Trump associates have gone to jail. Even scumbag Cory Booker, down on the border a couple weeks ago, committing crimes helping aliens cross illegally, and is he in jail? No! He's on stage spewing his ignorant anti-American leftist liberal democrat whore nonsense!!!

Deal is Barr makes mueller go away and get Trumps policies and protection through courts...... and deep state actors avoid jail. Dems do whatever dems do.

Totally, completely 100% unacceptable.
