Statement from the Press Secretary

 

Today, President Donald J. Trump informed FBI Director James Comey that he has been terminated and removed from office.  President Trump acted based on the clear recommendations of both Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

“The FBI is one of our Nation’s most cherished and respected institutions and today will mark a new beginning for our crown jewel of law enforcement,” said President Trump.

A search for a new permanent FBI Director will begin immediately.

RUDI GIULIANI

He's tough and doesn't hesitate fighting to win. The security consultation contacts and past income from over overseas will not compromise him in domestic law enforcement.

Well like some DUmmie pointed out, since Trump is a Russian agent, this order came directly from Moscow.../s

One thing I think we can agree with DUmmies about...is more popcorn may be required.

Oh, McCabe most definitely IS worse than Comey.

Comey was just a dufus. McCabe is the real villain that stands guard for the Deep State.
