He could be a historic figure if he did the right thing for the country. Imagine if the head of the FBI blew the whistle on all of them. He could get protection for himself and his family.
“He could get protection for himself and his family.”
Perhaps he is calculating that there is no one with sufficient authority to truly protect him. But for certain the Administration and Hillary would turn their media dogs on him 24/7 - like they are on Trump - and he doesn’t want to put his people through that...or through the loss of income from his firing, which would be immediate.
The media would be turned loose on him viciously if took this outside the chain of command. Remember, the media is theirs, they own it.
LOL Do you really believe that?
Tell that to the D.C. Madam, the three people involved with the DNC and Wikileaks, Chandra Levy, Vince Foster, William Colby, the Navy Seals involved in the Osama raid, Ron Brown, Mary Kennedy, Mary Pinchot Meyer, Michael Hastings, Suzanne Coleman, et al
