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.

STATEMENT FROM FORMER FBI DIRECTOR COMEY

Where'm I gonna live when I get home?
That mean Ol' Trump' th'owed out ever-thang I own.
He meant what he said, that my career was dead.
So where'm I gonna live when I get home?

I knew our road was a-gettin' kinda rocky,
When he said I was a-gettin' way too cocky.
He waited till I was gone,
Then he packed up all my belongs'.
So where'm I gonna live when I get home?

Comey should have gone a long time ago. The reasons are obvious. Keep draining the swamp.

No it’s not. If you request for a resignation, they still maintain access and “authority” until the resignation is on the President’s desk. Firing is immediate dismissal. They walk you to the office, let you get your personal belongings while under watchful eyes and then are escorted out. You don’t want weasels like Comey running bleach bit on his computer.

I think Trey Gowdy would be an excellent choice.

Has anyone heard if McCabe has been mentioned? He must NOT even get the interim job while they find the permanent replacement.

Draining the swamp! Now fire #2 McCabe for two reasons: His wife’s $600,000 campaign contribution for her state senate race that was actually a bribe to McCabe and for the party he supposedly hosted at the FBI to bash Trump after the election. Fire him now!

Which is funny since Hillary threw Comey under the bus not long ago blaming him for her loss.
