What a sick leftist. Comey is 100% a leftist plotter.

Just because Comey’s entire family was at the pussyhat protest doesn’t mean he is a Dem.

Comeys friend thinks the deputy AG shouldnt have private conversations with the President? Is there a law against it, Mr. Lawfare? Like Obama and Holder never did? Im sure Fast and Furious was conceived during a private conversation.

The “good friend” is Benjamin Wittes of Lawfare. He is a Muslim Brotherhood apologist:
(Daniel Larison writes in The Conservative: ... “If Trump goes ahead with this, it would not be the first time that the Trump administration has run roughshod over U.S. law to do what they want, but it is important to understand that there is no legal basis for what the administration is preparing to do here.
McCants and Wittes add:
If credible evidence of terrorist activity is not forthcoming, it would quite simply be illegal for the United States to designate the Brotherhood on purely ideological grounds. To be sure, the Egyptian Brotherhood pursues an illiberal agenda in a democratic framework, but that is not a lawless act. Criminalizing the group for a set of ideas, by contrast, would be a lawless act.
It would also be the latest sign that the Trump administration is so heavily influenced by the authoritarian governments of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE that these client states are effectively dictating U.S. foreign policy on a number of issues.

Deputy AG is often the chosen person to deliver issue papers and DOJ updates to the POTUS. It's part of the job and they spoke regularly if perhaps not on the very best of terms.
I don't doubt PDJT could put any animosity aside so the guy could do his job and it sounds like RR noticed exactly that.
Likely a fine example of a guilty conscience on the part of Cardinal Comey's best buddy?

The deputy attorney general shouldn't be having "personal conversations" with the president. https://t.co/3OezMaxfhu Benjamin Wittes (@benjaminwittes) April 29, 2019 I don't recall now, is this the asshat that Comey shared his FBI work product with? The one who wrote the op-ed for him?

The house of cards is about to be knocked down. If I was Comey I would be worried as well. I wonder if he is planning any trips out of the country soon.

Sort of like, AG Loretta Lynch should not have been having personal conversations with the husband of a presidential candidate who was under investigation by the FBI.

"The deputy attorney general shouldn't be having 'personal conversations' with the president,"
HA! Based on what theory of propriety?

Comey and company have good cause to be concerned.
To: Bookshelf; All
"...that there is no legal basis for what the administration is preparing to do here..."Sounds like someone is worried and knows something is ABOUT TO happen.

Is there a law against it...No. There is a law for it called the US Constitution. All executive power is vested in the President.

Save your alarm for those across the glass meetings with your friend Jim.

Comey’s family of moonbats gave $2,700 to Amy Koubachar.

Comey is the antithesis of ethics. That he is ‘teaching’ ethics is like going to McDonalds for Chocolate-covered strawberries and Dom Perignon.
