FBI Dir Comey needs to be transparent + tell the public what he told me about whether he is or is not investigating @POTUS

Ned Raggett, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:32 (seven years ago) link

I feel sorry for Comey or whoever has to sit there and suppress a sigh when a legislator blowhard sayd, "We're going to get into a lot of things today." I'd be thinking, "There goes dinner."

Gowdy has a real hard time just opening his fucking ears and listening, huh?

I like Himes. I've seen him on talk shows and he's one of the few legislators who can speak in clear, full sentences and knowos how to use polysyllabic words that aren't jargon.

Comey may or may not be a chump himself

Comey's a chump to the bone, you think he didn't know any of this shit before he tanked Hillary's chances? His gamble was that all this crap would get forgotten/swept under the rug, he obviously miscalculated how badly other intelligence community folks (the CIA, I'm guessing) would be eager to burn Trump and leak shit to the press.

Οὖτις, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:42 (seven years ago) link

If Comey's sad that his boss turned out to be an idiot that's making his job a lot harder he has no one to blame but himself really

Had almost forgotten Trump's making a speech tonight in Louisville.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:43 (seven years ago) link

He doesn't speechify, he RALLIES

Οὖτις, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:47 (seven years ago) link

Yup

also seriously you guys the office of the Atty General and at least some echelon of Comey's shop are probably compromised as hell too and we have fucking commissars running around the office of the secdef - is it not pretty obvious that this is going to be an intentional nothingburger?

unless they really screw it up by flailing all over the place

LOL

New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, a vocal critic of President Trump, has hired a prosecutor who served under fired U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara to focus on public corruption cases, including those involving the Trump administration, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

Schneiderman’s decision to hire Howard Master reportedly signals that he plans to target Trump and his administration. Master previously served under Bharara, who was fired after refusing to resign at Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s request.

Master worked on high-profile cases at the Department of Justice, including the prosecution of New York State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver.

Eric Soufer, a spokesman for Schneiderman, confirmed the hire to the Journal.

Comey is a chump, for sure, but he is not a totally incompetent idiot, just conniving and craven. This Gomer Pyle guy Gowdy, I can't imagine anything sitting though his questions without some degree of contempt.

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:51 (seven years ago) link

agree w tombot that these committee hearings are gonna be big nothingburgers. they're good insofar as they keep Trlmp distracted and on the defensive, but there's not gonna be any real digging w out an independent prosecutor.

Οὖτις, Monday, 20 March 2017 15:56 (seven years ago) link

omigod they're arguing semantics

Read that as 'international nothingburger' (and house of pancakes).

The house is on fire, Trump is running around with a box of matches, and the GOP demands to know who called the fire department.

I think as a means of getting this stuff out to the probably mostly ignorant or at least agnostic public at one time, in one place, this is serving its purpose just fine.

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 20 March 2017 16:10 (seven years ago) link

gotta think that part if not all of 'voting trump #MAGA fuck the browns and the poors!' is identifying with trump. that train only goes so far, though, and at some point the fools who think they're embarrassed billionaires won't want to vicariously identify as compromised traitor pretend billionaires. but predictions of comrade combover's eventual demise have been proven wrong for decades now i guess

reggie (qualmsley), Monday, 20 March 2017 16:16 (seven years ago) link

i mean he certainly will EVENTUALLY have a demise, it's just too bad it wasn't via a distracted NYC cabbie in 1989

nomar, Monday, 20 March 2017 16:18 (seven years ago) link

did we find out why Comey leaked the Clinton stuff but not this

frogbs, Monday, 20 March 2017 16:24 (seven years ago) link

someone on twitter said that comey's voice is very soothing and, not gonna lie, i think they're right

jason waterfalls (gbx), Monday, 20 March 2017 16:25 (seven years ago) link

gee what could the reason possibly be

xp

Οὖτις, Monday, 20 March 2017 16:25 (seven years ago) link

I'll go with "Because he is a partisan shitstain."

Lauren Schumer Donor (Phil D.), Monday, 20 March 2017 16:26 (seven years ago) link

arguably better, from a laundry point of view, than a shitstain that reaches across the aisle if you get me

Whitehouse was on Maher's show on Friday, and Maher asked him if he would run for President and he said no, and Maher failed to follow up with a "but your name is Whitehouse!" joke. Maher is a terrible comedian.

Don Van Gorp, midwest regional VP, marketing (誤訳侮辱), Monday, 20 March 2017 16:50 (seven years ago) link

well, yeah

stop scaring my toaster (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 20 March 2017 16:52 (seven years ago) link

I think a terrible comedian is the one who makes that joke, tbh

King: Come on. [He’s pressing on a reported meeting with Trump about Steele’s dossier, the one with the golden showers.] It was you, Trump, Brennan and Clapper? Four people in the room, right? And it was leaked hours after that meeting about the dossier. It’s a small universe of people?

Comey: No comment bro. I can tell you.. it often turns out there are more people that know about something than you expected.

wtf
