A 2018 video of former FBI Director James Comey is circulating again after the Department of Justice released bombshell documents that appear to show the FBI was planning a perjury trap for President Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
In the clip, MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace asks Comey who went around protocol to send FBI agents directly into the White House to interview the retired general in January 2017.
“I sent them," Comey reveals.
“[S]omething I probably wouldn't have done and maybe gotten away with in a more organized investigation,” he added.
Devastating flashback clip of Comey just aired on @marthamaccallum show.
When asked who went around the protocol of going through the WH Counsel’s office and instead decided to send the FBI agents into White House for the Flynn perjury trap, Comey smugly responds “I sent them.”— Elise Stefanik (@EliseStefanik) April 29, 2020
#DrainTheSwamp- @Comey: I sent them something I probably wouldn't have done and maybe gotten away with in a more organized investigation… if the FBI wanted to send agents into the White House itself to interview a senior official you would work through the White House counsel. pic.twitter.com/mrZcNMpVy4— Lou Dobbs (@LouDobbs) December 15, 2018
Typically, the process would have gone through the White House counsel, which Comey explained: “If the FBI wanted to send agents into the White House itself to interview a senior official, you would work through the White House counsel, and there would be discussions and approvals and who would be there.”
On why he decided to bypass standard protocol, Comey said: “I thought: ‘It’s early enough, let’s just send a couple guys over.’”
The notes released Wednesday were reportedly written by former FBI general counsel James A. Baker and say: "What is our goal? Truth/admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?"
???? DEVELOPING…
Unsealed FBI notes reveal the intent of the FBI’s 1/24/17 interview of Flynn:
“What is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute [Flynn] or get him fired?”

Senator Lindsey Graham, yesterday on Tucker, said he’s going to “ask” the Deep State crowd to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee. It’s voluntary. Which means it’s a joke.
He’s been saying this for over a year and so far, not one person, has testified.
McCain’s boy can not be trusted. Time for SC to kick Lindsey OUT
Exactly! Where is the lengthy jail time anyone not part of the elite would get?
Pelosi, Schumer, and Hillary all belong on the same cell block of political felon's.
Now there’s a guy who flaps his gums in the breeze. He also said he was going to look into every single woman who brought false charges against Justice Kavanaugh. He talks a good spiel, but does nothing.
It will only be “devastating” when every one of these corruptocrats is sporting an orange jump suit.
Pelosi, Schumer and Hillary are much harder to indict.
These were clearly criminal acts by FBI agents.
Documented.
Indictments are for the rubes.
(That would be us)
Obama is not a natural born citizen.
We relinquished the Constitution the day he was sworn in.
It took the cooperation of both parties.
Flimsey Grahamnesty is in this up to his neck.
He’s faking support for the President fro re-election purposes only.
Bttt.
5.56mm
It must be that Barr and Durham, tragically, weren’t aware that you guys had a deadline for them.
Maybe at the end of this mess...Flynn will go and sue Comey in civil court, and take what he can of Comey’s remaining ‘fortune’.
Peter and his slut ... worse than we thought...
Build Comey 4 story Gallows, then hang the bastard with a 5 story rope!
“Maybe at the end of this mess...Flynn will go and sue Comey in civil court, and take what he can of Comey’s remaining ‘fortune’.”
That would be partial justice, but I’d love to see it. Now if you put Comey in jail, AND he loses a civil suit, yep, that’s fair.
Trust the plan.
The storm is coming.
Do as you’re told, close your business and wear a mask.
Didn’t we know years ago it was a setup!?
When the Hell will there be indictments?!
I think we have seen too often where the rich and connected get off and the common folk get screwed.
We have a President that is fighting tooth and nail for truth and justice and all we get is wash, rinse, repeat.
Trump and his supporters are laughed at and ridiculed because "they" know we cannot win - they have stacked the deck, loaded the dice and tilted the playing field.
Our only recourse may come down to that which we cannot speak of - and that just plain sucks. Many good patriots will end up dead. Again.
Gee, you would think the Attorney General would be aware of things like the Federal statue of limitations, but maybe that’s too much to ask.
