full title: Comey Wanted To Reveal Russian Interference During The 2016 Election, Obama White House Stopped Him
....Well before the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence accused the Russian government of tampering with the U.S. election in an October 7 statement, Comey pitched the idea of writing an op-ed about the Russian campaign during a meeting in the White House Situation Room in June or July.
He had a draft of it or an outline. He held up a piece of paper in a meeting and said, I want to go forward. What do people think of this? says a source with knowledge of the meeting, which included Secretary of State John Kerry, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Department of Homeland Security secretary Jeh Johnson and the national security adviser Susan Rice.

I wonder if the Committee that Comey is appearing before next Thursday might ask him about this:
note the dates:
"June or July" - White House Situation Room Meeting Identified as Attending: Obama, Lynch, Rice, Kerry, Johnson
" Comey pitched the idea of writing an op-ed about the Russian campaign "He had a draft of it or an outline. {that} would have included much of the same information as the bombshell declassified intelligence report released January 6..."
Jun 29 - tarmack meeting
If a 'republican source' hired the investigators first, as timelined and the dems are claiming that they didn't hire these same investigators until "June or July', (June according to Fusion) as reported here was the Hillary Campaign made aware of the report and was subsequent 'purchase' of the report made by the Hillary Campaign so that the same info the FBI had could be accessed outside of FBI channels?
Whose decision was it to play the Senate Intel Committee as a tool to open channels for distribution of the contents of the report by "asking specific questions at intelligence briefings, knowing the answers would be archived and could be easily unearthed by investigators including the Senate Intelligence Committee "...
Whose decision was it, as inauguration day approached to reverse themselves: " to narrow the number of people who could access it as well, knowing that they couldnt keep this from the new president."
TownHall, (Townhall, Mark Vespa, Mar 7)
I’d believe he wanted Come Out of the Closet and Hoover it...
“..the Russian campaign...”
Did Russia have a campaign in this election? Where is the evidence?
Interesting how the subject matter has shifted from “collusion”
to “interference”.
Two totally unrelated issues.
Comey is looking for a way out of the collusion BS.
Comey is neck deep in his own lies and misleadings and as long as frickin’ goofball Darrel “I think I understand how to be a lawyer so I will ask questions that have three possible and acceptable answers” Issa doesn’t pretend to be a litigator and ask his horrible, horrible questions we may well get to the bottom of....something in these hearings. I shall not hold my breath.
Comey is such a lying sack of crap
Glad he is gone
Comey is completely full of crap.
“says a source”
A “source”
Everyone take a drink.
My liver hasn’t been this assaulted since I picked the word “folks” in the Obama drinking game.
Is this report old news? It sounds familiar.
worth a look
It is old - from March 30.
What in the world is going on in this country? Either I’m experiencing early cognitive decline or there seems to be no way to make sense of the games being played because they’re too shrouded in bs language/intricate for us mere civilians to understand.
He had a draft of it or an outline. He held up a piece of paper in a meeting and said, I want to go forward. What do people think of this?
I think we’ve already heard this story. The MSM is now recycling Russia fake news having run out of fresh fake news.
He wanted to write an “ Op-Ed”?
To publish in a government controlled newspaper?
Which one?
Is that what replaced NIE’s?
What part of Comey’s information was “ Op” ( opinion) and what part was ‘ Ed” ( editorial)
Do these people even listen to themselves?
Btw is obama going to apologize the Trump for calling him a “ whjner” in October when Trump was warning of election rigging? And to the American people for assuring us that “ no serious person’ could believe in election tampering because it simply wasnt possible?
A source, huh? Wow. Must be the real McCoy, then.
Obama tells the American people that Trump is “ whining” about concerns of election rigging because “ it simply isn’t possible”
October 2016

That adds to my impression from the wonderful and kept secret contents of the out-of-Paris speech. Perhaps (at last!) President Trump has identified and removed the leakers and their influence on information he's using to make decisions.
I wonder if Comey told S Obama B his alarm at discovering that Administration operatives were interfering with the Israeli elections. S Obama B sent $350,000 to defeat Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus re-election bid in 2015. How many other elections did S Obama B meddle in to defeat a candidate they did not want?
