Senators suspect Comey lied and plotted to double-cross Trump, seek second special counsel

A plan of action for how a second special counsel can investigate the FBI and Justice Department is spelled out in a point-by-point letter submitted by two Republican senators.

They specifically want to know whether former FBI Director James B. Comey lied to them and had a plan to double-cross President Trump.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley of Iowa and Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina sent a letter last week to Attorney General Jeff Sessions. They and two other Republicans want a special counsel with the powers of the Trump-Russia probe’s Robert Mueller to investigate suspected Justice Department corruption. They attached a second letter to Michael E. Horowitz, the Justice Department’s inspector general, outlining all the avenues that need to be navigated — complete with new and expanded accusations. They want an investigation to look at whether Mr. Comey set up Mr. Trump as president-elect.

Could a second special counsel investigate the first special counsel, Comey’s best friend, if the trail leads there?

He and Mueller and McCabe and Weismann

Never forget Mueller was in charge on 9/11. He and his cabal destroyed Hatfill’s career. They missed everything all the time

Wasn’t this the same meeting Comey told Trump he wasn’t under investigation?

I wonder whether Comey is living up to the FBI's CANDOR STANDARD.

He sure seems to be lying. Just saying ...

Don’t worry, Useless Jeff will task Rosenstein to appoint an impartial and independant second special counsel to investigate... Rosenstein and Mueller.

Comey brifed POTUS on dossier “to get D.T. to respond in some way that would get him in trouble”.

Remember this meeting/briefing happened THE DAY AFTER the January 6th Oobomma, Rice, Comey, et al meeting at the White House (that Rice later memorialized in email to herself). No doubt this was a strategy developed at this meeting, at which point full electronic surveillance of the President-elect was in place.

Little Jimmy Comey took his action item and ran off the next day to drop the bait as he was told to do by the ring-leader of this cabal, Ooobomma himself.

No doubt that this strategy had come from the high-level thinkers who watched “Breaking Bad” and saw this strategy work on Walt to reveal the remote location of his buried cash. Although in contrast to meth-cooker Walt, DJT had done nothing wrong, and had nothing to hide (or react to upon learning the lies in the Hillary campaign document).

LOL ... Comey thinks he's a choir boy, a righteous man of God.

He actually wants to be the second Special Prosecutor in his sick mind.

lol

I knew this over 8 months ago. Turn off even Fox News if you did not know this then.

The “special counsel” should be an investigator that reports to the HOUSE which constitutionally has the SOLE POWER to impeach (formally accuse) a high-ranking federal official.

However, Comey is no longer a federal official, so if there is reasonable suspicion that he committed a federal crime, the FBI (after it is reasonable cleaned up) should undergo its normal process of investigation such crimes.

The only Justice is a proper investigation and sending Comey and Hillary et al to prison.

Scumbag Comey who got his dirty wings playing with Bill Clinton with Marc Rich. He's been a dirty cop for decades.

It's remarkable how many AK's there are out there in the world. Some organizations engender people like this more than others, and sadly the FBI appears to be fertile ground for dirty cops like Comey to climb up the ranks.

These types were drawn to the Obama Regime like flies to dog poop - and his administration encouraged it.

Obama demanded this loyalty, and the press kept silent about that corruption.
