I agree with DiGenova’s premise here, but I also remember that for months he was telling everyone (he has a weekly spiel on Washington’s WMAL) that Comey was so damn upright that when the investigation was through he would recommend indictment and that he knew that if there was no indictment his agents would be screaming in protest and resigning. He was the most upright guy in government; total integrity; blah, blah, blah.

Then we saw what Comey really was, - another crooked political hack who was positioning himself for a high level appointment in a Clinton administration.

There are no honest people left in government (OK, maybe a Jeff Sessions). We have lost our country, and except for Trump, there is no white knight out in the wings ready to rescue us. A Clinton presidency will turn us into a Venezuela. Start saving your toilet paper.

Compare how just us dogged scooter Libby to the soft ball treatment of these enemies of the state. That shows how much the establishment is worried about trump

Someone said it earlier this election is for all the marbles. We are teetering at the abyss with a stiff wind blowing.

0bama should be given immunity in return for his e-mail pseudonyms and all SS #s he has ever used.

DiGenova maintained that spiel from January through about late April. Then suddenly he said Comey was not going to indict. Joe knew it months before Comey made it public.

Joe also says that there is now a grand jury active in the southern district of NY looking into the foundation. Though nothing will happen before the election.

Which makes his indictment now all the more important and damning.

He was a fan of Comey. And now he calls on him to resign.

Comey shouldn’t be fired: he should be indicted for political corruption.

It is an almost inviolable rule that no government employee will “resign” over their principles.

None.

Almost all went into government service because of the gold-plated retirement/medical benefits. When it comes down to it, they will do what’s in their own self-interest every time.

Compromised or complicit .. or both in the pursuit of truth and justice?

I think gallows may be a step too far, but maybe he should serve a prison term equal to the combined times served behind bars of the major Watergate figures.

L. Patrick Gray tarnished the reputation of the FBI during the Watergate scandal but Gray seems to have been mainly gullible and in over his head rather than corrupt--and he never was indicted for his actions during Watergate.

Comey's actions are far worse.

Time to shout from the rooftops: the immunity deals each constitute felony obstruction of justice.

Arrest Comey NOW!

No, when he tweets out “YOU’RE INDICTED!” He should be investigated to see if he had any financial purpose in his decision as I heard he has some involvement in the Clinton money laundering foundation.

Are you saying that DiGenova is ‘the establishment?’

Congress should impeach tyrants, but this would not prevent pardons.

The House might manage to impeach him with a simple majority, but then he’s still able to pardon during the senate impeachment trial.

And you need some democrat senators to cross the aisle to remove him during the senate impeachment vote — a 2/3 super majority.

Democrats are LAW-LESS because Republicans are BALL-LESS!!!

The Democrats would have had Comey in PRISON by now if it was reversed!

No, he shouldn’t. He should hang on until right after President Trump’s swearing in and he tweets out, “You’re fired!”

Actually it should be, "The new and honest attorney general that believes in the law of the land will be prosecuting you for malfeasance of office. It is really going to be a very ugly two years for you. You do not have the honor of a 20 years old soldier on the battlefield in Afghanistan. That soldier will lay down his life to defend The Constitution and our great nation. You sir, are nothing but a Quisling to be held in contempt, you are without honor nor believe in the rule of law."

“If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

Samuel Adams a man of honor which is sadly lacking today.
