Or #3.

Professional courtesy on Comey’s part: remind potentially over zealous Senators of the consequences of having a verifiable association with an individual suspected of leaking classified material.

After Comey’s performance in front of the Government Oversight Committee I lost all respect for him. He needs to go.

They got nuthin’.

Otherwise the content of the briefing would have already been published by the Post or the Times.

DJT was in Linda’s back yard yesterday, didn’t see the poofter in attendance and McLettuce is out-of-country.

I guess Gowdy and Kelli Ward would be appointed temp senators if the traitors were forced to resign?

Giuliani and Sessions would make quite a team for draining the "swamp"!

I agree. My guess would be information to the Intelligence Committee about the case with the “three brothers”. Definitely an issue the Democrats will not speak about unless forced to.

“I don’t see that Trump has any inkling of what is coming either.”

Do you believe FBI would undertake a highly political action without DOJ and POTUS aboard?

senators declined to even confirm the presence of the FBI director, much less the substance of the meeting. Those who did talk generally only gave “no comments”

You know someone will talk.

I wonder if the Director briefed the congress critters on the reality of the law being applied to congress critters if they leak information. Then he briefed them and warned them again, his office would take aggressive measures should the information be leaked.

Whatever happened, the new administration is throwing down a line in the sand and informing everyone, break the law regarding classified information at your own peril.

Personally, I regret the Mike Flynn had to go, and believe he was set up to some degree. And he might have been his own worst enemy in discussions with Mr. Pence, but still after what we witnessed with HRC, a hard line had to be drawn.

New sheriff in town, and the hoosegow is virtually empty. [hoosegow = Cowboy corruption of Mexican Spanish jusgado jail}

Schumer will talk. That asshole NEVER shuts up. Someone should smack those stupid glasses off his arrogant face.


My first thought was....Schumer??? F U Schumer??? He’s the LAST person I’d trust, in that meeting.

But....then I thought....hmmmm....maybe he doesn’t want to end up like the poor saps shown in post #18 :-O

Interesting how the first 8 paragraphs of this article was all about the secret visit that Comey had, and that no one is talking about what was discussed.

Then the last 2 paragraphs are disjointed from the previous 8 paragraphs and all of sudden talk about potential Russian interference in the election and Michael Flynn.

This is a form of #FAKENEWS! The last two paragraphs attempting to tie in Michael Flynn with the Comey visit. No one told this author about the connection. Or did they? If someone did tell author then there is a leak. If no one did tell this author then it is #FAKENEWS!

my first thought-just because of all the recently announced arrests around the country.
