Comey Branded as Criminal in Connection with his Actions as FBI Director

[code1211]

Well, the first domino has fallen.

Comey has been branded by the Inspector General as the crook we all observed him to be.

He mishandled documents, leaked some, LOST some and stored them inappropriately in his home. These are all crimes. He also lied to the FBI, another crime, so there should be hard jail time.

Astonishingly, he thinks that when the Director of the FBI has discussions with the POTUS, these discussions should be stored under the heading of "Dear Diary".

RU Kidding?

The only question that a reasonable observer or journalist should be asking is: "How high in the Obama Administration will this go?"

Clapper, Brennan, Lynch and Holder must be collectively crapping their pants. Obviously. McCabe and Strzok and others are implicated. I wonder if the Big 0 is a little worried...

Don't get excited about it. Nothing is going to happen to Comey or any of the others. They'll get a public scolding, perhaps, but that will be the extent of things. The establishment does not eat itself.

Trump supporters who have no problem with Trump abusing restrictions on access to classified information in order to give his children power in areas they have no competence complain about someone else abusing access to classified information, see no hypocrisy in their actions. News at 11.

You lot have nothing to say about Comey and his memos.

 

[haymarket]

His open breach of protocol in the waning days of the 2016 campaign forever tarnishes his reputation. He will go to his grave knowing he helped Russias candidate to win election to our nations highest office.

There is no link in your post.

Please provide an MSM link where he is "branded as a criminal", and also let me know when he will be indicted.

A government ethics group told Trump to remove Kellyanne Conway for not one but two Hatch Acts violations. I'm still waiting for that action to take place.

He is not innocent, he clearly violated FBI policy. He clearly leaked information to the press through his friend. Others have received much more in terms of consequences for similar action. There is still opportunity to seek some penalty for his action. Comey still has to await the IG report on the FISA warrants.

A president has supreme authority when it comes to classification. He can literally, do anything wants. Before whining about "Truuuuuuump!!", perhaps you should educate yourself on the law.

Is that the same Comey who announced a week or so before the election that he was reopening the investigation into Hillary Clinton? A week left in the Presidential election campaign he torpedoes one of the candidates? That Comey?
Whatever. In Breaking News you're supposed to link to the, uh, breaking news.

No one is going to jail. Least of all Mr. Comey.

Trump tells his aides to break US laws, he will pardon them, and you're fixated on a former FBI Director whom Trump fired in order to stop the Mueller investigation.

What are you talking about? The DOJ determined only that he mishandled personal memos containing unclassified information related to his job, and that he will face no prosecution for it.

What are you talking about? The DOJ determined only that he mishandled personal memos containing unclassified information related to his job, and that he will face no prosecution for it.

That's not quite accurate.

The report says that the "personal" memos were actually job related and, therefore, FBI work product. It also says that Comey was less than forthcoming in producing those documents when they were asked for. Most significantly, the report says that his actions were politically motivated and that he set a poor example for his agents -

Former Director Comey failed to live up to this responsibility. By not safeguarding sensitive information obtained during the course of his FBI employment, and by using it to create public pressure for official action, Comey set a dangerous example for the over 35,000 current FBI employees—and the many thousands more former FBI employees—who similarly have access to or knowledge of non-public information. Comey said he was compelled to take these actions “if I love this country...and I love the Department of Justice, and I love the FBI.” However, were current or former FBI employees to follow the former Director's example and disclose sensitive information in service of their own strongly held personal convictions, the FBI would be unable to dispatch its law enforcement duties properly, as Comey himself noted in his March 20, 2017 congressional testimony. Comey expressed a similar concern to President Trump, according to Memo 4, in discussing leaks of FBI information, telling Trump that the FBI's ability to conduct its work is compromised “if people run around telling the press what we do.” This is no doubt part of the reason why Comey’s closest advisors used the words “surprised,” “ stunned,” “ shocked,” and “disappointment” to describe their reactions to learning what Comey had done.

The OP didn't provide a link so I went out to look this up myself.

You are correct. Especially to your last point. They said he will not face prosecution.

So this has turned out to be nothing. I think everyone knew he shouldn't have leaked those memos.

I think you're right.

The IG recommended criminal prosecution. The DOJ deep staters declined.

It would be nice if Comey was at least referred to as the "disgraced former director", but that won't happen either.

It used to be that a person who disgraced himself, his office and his country would suffer some consequences.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

So you're saying that a guy who commits a real world crime is to be excused because you "feel" like someone else is not worthy?

ANOTHER interesting side effect of TDS.

Maybe there's some kind of a treatment for TDS. It sure seems like many, many people are suffering from it.

It creates cognitive disabilities causing illusions and making people people believe lies from partisan hacks.

Apparently, his "open breach of protocol" was, for him, SOP.

This powerful abuser of his awesome power didn't just suddenly "go rogue" in any one, particular instance. It seems to have been the way he conducted his day to day devious and dubious actions.

He was the student of Mueller who also abused the system to achieve goals that had little to do with justice and much to do with hanging scalps on his belt.

We know with absolute certainty that people actually died in jail after Mueller rigged the evidence against them.

We know with absolute certainty that whatever else Comey did, he went outside of his authorities to attack both Clinton and Trump politically with no legal impetus.

We know with absolute certainty that a cess pool of politically interfering agents and clerks existed throughout the FBI management structure.

Whether Comey created this cess pool or merely became one of the more gifted swimmers in it rising to the top like rancid cream really makes little difference to the victims of these now exposed, corrupted police thugs.

Your argument seems to be that if one person robs a bank, then everyone else needs to rob one as well. Is that really it?

Sorry about no link. I put this in the wrong forum.

I've been informed this was moved to a different forum.

Has Trump pardoned ANYONE connected with his administration, campaign or businesses?

What are you talking about? The DOJ determined only that he mishandled personal memos containing unclassified information related to his job, and that he will face no prosecution for it.

I had heard reported that the IG recommended prosecution and that the DOJ has declined that honor.

Do you have a source for the DOJ commencing the prosecution?

I thought it was very interesting that this buffoon claimed that he thought that when the Director of the FBI met with the POTUS, the conversation was a personal thingy.

Either he is a pathological liar or just an idiot.

Right...

And Epstein only violated child labor laws.

Thread title: Comey Branded as Criminal in Connection with his Actions as FBI Director

The very thread title is a lie. DOJ is NOT prosecuting Coney. There is nothing to prosecute. The IG reported that Comey DID NOT release "Classified" data. Comey released a few pieces of Sensitive/Confidential material but nothing Classified. Nothing to see here.

So NO.....no "dominos" in play or falling either.

Wow. You are snowflaking yourself into hysteria.

I asked you for the link where he is "branded as a criminal". You can't post it because there is none. He was not branded as a criminal. He violated FBI policy. He was not charged by the DOJ because even Barr knows he isn't a criminal.

Is "breaching protocol" a crime now? If so Trump should be languishing in jail by now.

Comey acted out of patriotism and did what he felt he had to do in order to bring some sort of justice to Trump. And it was very effective.

I know nothing about rigging evidence by Mueller. And I see no verifiable evidence of this charge.

The one thing that Comey did that he will always wear as a scar is contribute mightily to the election of Trump as president. His blatantly illegal interference in the last days of he campaign probably elected Trump as much as the Russians helped him. Without the two - Trump would have sunk like a stone. But I see no interest in that from the far right.
