BOSTON — FBI Director James Comey says he plans to serve his entire 10-year term, even as controversy swirls over his attempt to rebut President Donald Trump’s claim that the Obama administration tapped his phones during the election.
Comey said Wednesday during a cybersecurity conference at Boston College: “You’re stuck with me for another 6½ years.” He was appointed 3½ years ago by then-President Barack Obama.

I don’t think the American people can stand 10 years of this maggot.
[“You’re stuck with me for another 6½ years.”]
Is that a threat?
I’ve a feeling DJT has dealt with this type of situation before.
In Leavenworth?
Doesn’t Comey serve at the pleasure of the sitting President?
“...over his attempt to rebut President Donald Trump’s claim that the Obama administration tapped his phones”
First, how exactly did he do that?
After calling President Trump a liar he’ll be lucky to be there another 10 days.
He can be terminated for cause. What constitutes cause is a political question the courts won’t touch. So yes he can be fired.
Does he get to pick the penitentiary too?
That tells us a lot.
FBI chief Comey says he plans to serve entire 10-year term
Dream on, schlub.
things can change......terms can stop short!!!
A FReeper posed an idea (maybe on Monday?) that Comey deferred to the DOJ to deny the wire-tapping allegations by Trump, because he KNEW the DOJ could not and so would not issue a denial, which in the end, helps Trump.
Just some food for thought.
I think he needs his medication adjusted, he’s been as nutty as a fruitcake the last 5-6 months...
So how does DJT make this rat quit? Since Trump rarely sleeps, he could summon him for a daily 4AM daily briefing in the Oval Office. In a month he will be tripping over the bags under his eyes.
Unelected, and now unappointed people decide the terms of their jobs continuing under DJT. Hope he cleared this with Sessions first.
FBI chief Comey says he plans to serve entire 10-year term.... IN PRISON AS SOON AS HE IS CONVICTED AND SENTENCED.
New York Post and Comey....ROFLMAO!!!
Right, and to remind you Mr. Comey, the POTUS can fire your butt anytime he wants to...
Your a worthless POS just like the last POTUS you served, so why stay around...your taking up space and oxygen that a ‘real human being’ could use...
Can the president fire the head of the FBI?
They must be confirmed by the United States Senate and serve a term of office of five years, with a maximum of ten years, if reappointed, unless they resign or are fired by the President before their term ends. The current FBI Director is James B. Comey, who was appointed in 2013 by Barack Obama.
