Comey on Trump: “It was very concerning”
Wow. Here’s Comey’s prepared statement. It’s going to be quite a morning, tomorrow.
This is obstruction of justice, by any reasonable standard. The only reason why Comey does not come out clearly and say that, I suspect, is because he knows he will be asked this tomorrow: “Well, if you felt it was obstruction of justice, why didn’t you act before now?” It’s a fair question.
Thus, he left it a bit vague – the “I could be wrong” sophistry. It’s a duller blade, but it’s a knife that still kills.
Everything changes, tomorrow. Donald Trump is nearing the final act, whether he is aware of it or not.
I’m waiting to hear what Donner, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Blitzen and Cupid have to say!
Now that you have corrected the headline, you may as well remove my droll response….cheers y’alls!
I hate the orange bawbag as much as anybody, but I doubt this will lead to any impeachment or legal action taken against him. The GOP are still in control, they may not like Trump, but he lets them openly hate and victimize brown people and immigrants, and he’s undoing everything the Obama administration accomplished. All that is more important than the law, ethics or the integrity of the office of President.
Couldn’t they do that under Pence without Trump always dragging them down?
i’m under the impression that obstruction of justice is a legal definition, which can possibly trigger political impeachment. i don’t believe the head of the FBI is tasked with crafting this distinction, although his testimony may lead to lawsuits/investigations/etc.
am i correct?
thanks
.. as if we are not in an astonishing litigation
obstruction & delay delay delay era..
cometh the king of fake news, blurring the facts
complete deceit, lies lies & more lies
aka the snouty & shouty Trumplican
the fake president from another planet
a true believer in his own stated myth
thst he could shoot someone and get away with it..
Nothing is beyond this freak
or his surrogate galaxy of aliens
Don’t let me start on his immediate family
of poisonous privileged toadlings ..
