Senators Silent After Meeting With FBI Director Comey

Not much can get between senators and a recess. Except, perhaps, FBI Director James B. Comey.

Members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, along with ex-officio member and Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, huddled for a total of more than two hours on Friday with Comey.

The FBI director’s visit was not announced publicly, and it’s possible members of the Capitol Hill press corps only found out because he was spotted in the hallways and entered a secure room used for intelligence briefings.

But leaving that secure room in the Capitol Visitor Center, senators declined to even confirm the presence of the FBI director, much less the substance of the meeting. Those who did talk generally only gave “no comments” or referred questions to Intelligence Chairman Richard M. Burr and ranking member Mark Warner.

my guess, he identified the Dem leakers and put them on notice.

Oh my, I missed that read. Very interesting. Still no talking about Friday's meeting. I bet Dems, at the very least, are very concerned about the shoe that will drop sooner or later. Please ping me if you come across anything that may be related to Friday's meeting. Thanks for the link.
