Desperate Comey Sees Scheme Unraveling – And Chuck Grassley Enters Righteous Foray…
CONSERVATIVE TREEHOUSE ^ | 1/3/2018 | SUNDANCE

Posted on 01/03/2018 8:11:27 PM PST by bitt

The most dangerous time for a rescue swimmer is the moment he reaches a desperate drowning man…

Former FBI Director James Comey is sending out signals for anyone to back him up. He’s desperate. The sunlight is too intense now. Note the inherent elitist perspective he openly transmits toward being “independent”, or put another way: “above the law”.

The mindset here is the same he carried while in office. That mindset claims the FBI is above scrutiny, a system of law unto itself, and we must blindly owe it respect. THAT is exactly the view that fertilizes the seeds of politicization of offices. His arrogant and condescending viewpoint is exactly what allowed FBI gross misconduct to happen.

Contrast that perspective with Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, one of the two representative committees that hold oversight over the FBI and DOJ.

Grassley’s letter apparently accusing Comey of criminal leaks:

Looks to me like Bannon threw Comey a lifeline. Now the witch hunt will focus on money laundering.

I don’t think Congress will make sure justice is done. It’s personally costly, and Congress is full of big-talking cowards.

It’s the institution that makes the laws, and allows its members to violate those laws.

Frank, Dodd, Feinstein, Rangel, Waters, Menendez...

They will only do what serves them personally.

I'm thinking that Comey has shown some INTENT to mishandle classified material.

As the great one used to say “How sweet it is!”

“Nunes announces deal struck over documents for Hill #TrumpRussia probe”

It sounds good, but the deadline was 15 minutes from now and there are no docs. They’ll turn them over “in a few days”. I say it’s never going to happen. Trying to run out the clock.

This will not help them at all. What you are seeing is kabuki theater by a bunch of deep staters who are about to get their asses to them in a major way.

I don’t think they can get this genie back into the bottle. The FBI has been acting like the old KGB with Comey as Felix Derzhinsky. I don’t think the American People are going to stand for it.
