The Clintons and their followers have been trying to set up scapegoats, including Comey, to explain her defeat. Comey doesn’t like their selection of scapegoats. So naturally, he won’t support their narrative.

In order to retain their influence, the Clintons need to show everyone that Hillary wasn’t a flop - she really did win (like with the popular vote) and if it weren’t for the Russian manipulations and the blatant partisanship of Comey, she would be President.

That is exactly what I thought 2 hours ago. These Dems and lib rags spewing all this about Russian hacking. It is called projection. They know our government does it and they (Dems and media) would do all they could too.

"I can't take it any more, I have to get this off my chest: I hacked the DNC and Podesta. It was me. I met in the woods with that guy and gave him a flash drive with all the emails. I stayed silent until after the election because I didn't want to end up like Seth Rich, who hacked Hillary's campaign. I'm not Russian, I'm a hick."

“A bigger question than the one you posed about Comey is has Brennen at CIA ever had any credibility? He favors Obama who favors Hillary.

No but he has power. that’s what bothers me

Did you see Rudy, sometime in the past few days on TV? I think it was FNC, but I saw a clip on YT, so I’m not sure.

Anyway, he was quite calm and said it was up to Comey. He praised him, said “Jim is a good guy, he worked for me, I know him, and he will make the right decision. It’s difficult to do a job when your boss doesn’t trust you.” That last sentence is a paraphrase, but it conveys the thought.

Comey still works for zer0. He is under pressure and can’t do a thing with a hostile Justice Department. After January 20, he’ll meet with Trump and they will do whatever Trump wants. If Comey leaves, it’s my opinion that he will leave of his own accord and only nice things will be said in public. Trump doesn’t do public humiliation.

Bear in mind that the FBI never quit the other 15-16 Clinton investigations, which are ongoing in several venues. The FBI is on record disputing the rogue elements in CIA and Brennan as far as Russian *hacking* goes.

Also IMO, Brennan is the real danger. Clapper is also on board w/Trump, from what I can tell. I get the impression there are still some decent people at CIA, too, but they are outnumbered or out-gunned, is more likely, given the head honcho is a weasel.

I wouldn’t trust that site. Noah’s Ark graphics equals instant suspect status in my book. Even Townhall you have to take with a grain of salt sometimes, although it seems like Ed Klein has some standing. I wonder who these sources are who were privy to the Comey call to Trump? And why would they leak it to a minor outlet like Townhall? I am in wait and see mode on this one.

“...talking about the process ignores the content which is explosive.
_________________________________________

The media and Brennan/zer0/Lynch want people confused. That’s why they emphasize *hack*, which to the idiots means *forged*.

Emails can be verified and the ones leaked so far have been. That can be pounded home once Trump is inaugurated. Right now, all the leverage, all the power, still resides with the zer0 administration.

We need to be patient. The content of the emails IS explosive and most of the energy leads right back to the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Initiative. The ongoing FBI investigations include one begun in Little Rock, at the Clinton Library, from what I’ve read. Following threads and connecting dots is what FBI does. They are first and foremost investigators.

I think the entire prog following is going to be left with indisputable proof they were lied to, scammed and played by their own. The media can lead, follow or get out of the way, because in this new awakening world they are going to find themselves outside, looking in.

I’ve heard it’s a crap site but some like it.

I’m sure there are websites that I frequent, that would be considered totally loony by some but hey, it’s my internet connection.

This looks like “fake news”, don’t think it came from Comey. Would have to hear it directly from Comeys lips. Probably comes from Soros scum bags.

more anonymous sources - but would explain Prez Trump’s poo-pooing the russian BS, namely, Prez Trump knew for a fact that it was BS via his intelligence briefings.

once again, Prez Trump is completely correct even though the fake stream media ridiculed him because they have yet to learn that he nearly always is, even though they’ve been burned about a million times by incorrectly ridiculing him.

The only member of the U.S. intelligence community who was ready to assert that the Russians sanctioned the hacking was John Brennan, the director of the CIA, according to sources who were briefed on Comey’s conversations with Trump.

“And Brennan takes his marching orders from President Obama,” the sources quoted Comey as saying.


Is it past time for President Trump in 2017 to end the CIA?

President Truman did not trust the OSS and its increasing power.

At the end of WWII, he signed an ExO ending the OSS.

September 20, 1945, President Truman signed Executive Order 9621, terminating the OSS. His Order became effective October 1, 1945. In the days following, the functions of the OSS were split between the Department of State and the Department of War.

The State Department received the Research and Analysis Branch of OSS (originally created by Edward Mead Earle[28]) which was renamed the Interim Research and Intelligence Service or IRIS,[29] headed by U.S. Army Colonel Alfred McCormack. Later it was renamed the Bureau of Intelligence and Research by the State
Department.

Shortly after JFK was killed, Harry Truman who created the CIA , said that it was time to limit it to intel collection and no special ops.

HST founded the CIA, and he realized his creation had become something he didn’t want and became what/why he ended the OSS after WWII was over.

HST wrote this shortly after JFK was killed!

Limit CIA Role (To Intelligence collection)

"What do you mean? Comey has a 10 year mandate and will be around until 2023."

He can be impeached or given an offer that he can't refuse.
