Comey admitted single Trump leak, but were there others?

Read my link. There is precedent for disallowing EP for criminal matters also. That happened to Nixon. In fact Trump is following Nixon's path....right out of office. Nixon's next step was firing the special prosecutor...do you think Trump will try the same thing? Of course he will.

No he won't. That story will be shown to be unfounded as I think you'll see.

I'm relatively confident that a law graduate, criminal prosecutor and former head of the FBI is reasonably caught up on the legality of publicly sharing that memo.

Hell hath no fury like a 6'8" women scorned and we're not butthurt at all, we're elated ! This is hillarious !

The Comey testimony was supposed to be the beginning and the end of Trumps Presidency and you people were supposed to be celebrating this weekend, but instead wound up eating crow

Better yet, Trumps tweet about tapped comversations forced Comey to testify truthfully, instead of giving the Left exactly what they wanted.

Enemies: James Comey, Chuck Schumer, Sally Yates, Susan Rice, Barack Obama, every DEM on the House and Senate Intel Committees, Bob Mueller, 65+ million voters who voted for Hillary, countless other as yet unnamed Left Wing Nuts some of which serve in the House and Senate, others who serve as Heads of State in foreign countries, the MSM (but for Fox News).......(please continue to fill out this list!).

:shock:

No leak? The man admitted he leaked information to a friend for an express purpose. He admitted it in front of a World audience, and while under oath before a congressional committee.

And yet, you write, "No leak".

It's difficult to know what to conclude when cognitive dissonance on such a level is confirmed.

Cardinal merely implied he has far better food choices than crow... and that you projected a false narrative when you stated the following:

Erod asked an interesting question:

Might Comey have been the leaker all along?
Click to expand...

As if subterfuge and Machiavellian strategy no longer exist in the political arena... and an honest, forthright politician stands any chance of thriving and surviving, barring that fictional scenario, returning to IRL, going forward, what do we really believe?

IMO, of course Comey might have been the leaker all along. Short of unlawful torture or improbable investigative breaks, like someone with incriminating evidence and loyal to Comey betraying their loyalty, an indictment against Comey, likewise, remains improbable.

Then why doesn't Trump come clean about the contacts with the Russians? Why is he putting us through all this if there is nothing to it? You are not one of those that deny any Russian involvement in the election are you?

Lol....MSNBC and CNN ran it live and pre-empted all other programing while bars in DC opened up at 9am so millenials could pile in and watch Comey implicate Trump in a variety if crimes.

Instead we learned Trump was never under investigation and that he askef Comey to look into his associates and that there was no obstruction.

So no celebrations over the weekend, just more anger and frustration

Now I knew all along the whole Russian collusion nonsense was a scam, a lie put forth by the Democrat party and millions of people who lack the emotional maturity to deal with a election loss like adults.

But Comeys testimony put a knife in that tin hattery and now people are starting to wonder why we even need a SP

I am not going to get out ahead of the story on this, but I'll admit it is intriguing. We'll have to see how honorable and dedicated Mueller is in his job, but if he doesn't look into that possibility, given what we do know to be fact, he will show himself to be Comey's friend first and not the person who should be in that job.

What the heck are you even talking about? What contacts..,haven't you heard yet, or has the news/truth made it through the herd yet? Not a single exhibit in the evidence locker for that.

And just because Russia, since at least the Soviet era, tried to influence another election...that has not a single thing to do with the Trump campaign.

sigh

Comey was careful not to leak any classified information. If tipping off his friend to the memo was illegal, he'd be under investigation by now. (Hint: He isn't.)

This is no different than White House staffers telling the media that Trump yells at the TV. It may be unseemly, you may not like the leaker's motives, but it's legal, and there's really nothing of substance to it.

His friend Richman who leaked the memos seems to be well known at the NYT's.
"Comey, who was fired by Trump in May, was open about at least one leak in testimony last Thursday.
He admitted to using an ex-U.S. attorney, later identified as Columbia University Prof. Daniel Richman, to leak to The Times the contents of alleged memos Comey wrote about his one-on-one interactions with Trump. He was not asked if he had ever used Richman on other occasions; however, Richman is mentioned in 151 results in a New York Times search dating back to 1993, with 11 of those articles also featuring Comey and six of them being authored by Michael S. Schmidt – who later wrote the “Comey memos” story which Comey told Congress he directed Richman to leak."

Coincidence?

There is absolutely zero evidence that Mueller is in any way compromised.

Mueller was regarded by all sides as a good choice. Nothing has actually changed since he was appointment.

This is just another desperate attempt by the Trump supporters to trash the credibility of anyone involved in the investigation who is not a dedicated Trump supporter. Sad!

So all the info from multiple intelligence sources in multiple countries about intercepts of Trump's people taking with Russians who were being monitored as spies is untrue? When you say stuff like that I worry about your sanity. Those intercepts were not lies. We just want to know what they were talking about. Why is that so difficult to understand?

I certainly hope he doesn't make such a rash move. I'm not so sure he won't though. It appears he wants to continue the meme that there were no secret contacts with Russians by anyone in the campaign. I'm pretty sure Mueller wont agree to that.
