“Digenova” sounds like a mobster.
I just listened to the first 100 seconds of the interview. It is very good. He said the IG is going to find Comey is so dirty that he should be fired a second time; that Comey is going to be charged; and that Comey’s tweet last week was a pre-charges plea for leniency.
This is GOOD STUFF! I normally hate YouTube vids and audio interviews, but his is a solid exception. I take back the above snark about Digenova.
I really “love” Joe DiGenova. Spring before last (?) I’m guessing, back when the Hilly email stuff was in full swing, Judicial Watch had a panel - Tom Fitton, Chris Farrell, Peter Schweizer & Joe DiGenova were the panel members. Joe went last - he was listening to everything they were all saying & when it was time to talk, he called Comey a “dirty cop”. I thought Tom Fitton was going to faint & he’s not the fainting type! He asked Joe basically if he really meant that - Joe’s law practice requires him to deal with people who might not be so happy he said that - Joe doubled down & was VERY certain that calling Comey a ‘dirty cop’ was accurate. I tried to find Joe’s comments on the tape later & couldn’t, I think they were edited out.
Joe would be a fantastic Atty General, but he’d never get confirmed (IMO). Hilly would be packing her suitcases and running for the hills (or Argentina, as James Woods suggested after one of her inane tweets). Joe is married to Victoria Toensing, another top attorney who does a lot of work with intelligence issues - currently represents the FBI informant on the Uranium One case.

And one more interesting “tidbit” from Joe (if Joe is talking, I’m listening, plus he’s got good sources so I’m betting this is true!):
Joe DiGenova: FBI agents refused orders to destroy laptops and they still exist

Plea for leniency...
Why that’s obstruction of justice
Joe has a real animus towards Comey. Whenever he’s interviewed, he really goes off on the guy and dirty cop is just one of his zingers.
That guy has been legit since his OJ trial commentary, IMHO.
Good post, FRiend
