I guess he could amplify why he didn't tell anyone. Though if I recall, his statement claims he *did* tell people.

Be awesome if Comey wore a giant purple church suit.

and given those stories involve one on one conversations with Trump, that means Comey got them out

I feel certain there must be another possibility somewhere.

Though if I recall, his statement claims he *did* tell people

There we go!

Yeah, he told other people. But come on, those leaks came from Comey :)

Frederik B, Thursday, 8 June 2017 12:44 (six years ago) link

if Comey holds back, is enhanced interrogation an option? it would only be just.

He told other people, other people (iirc) have/had access to the memos. He just didn't tell Sessions. The question remains, who did he tell, how much did he tell them, who did he trust, and why? And while he clearly did tell other people, it is not clear he leaked any info, those other people could have leaked. But then, is it even a leak if it is not classified information and you are a private citizen? I think not.

I remember the long hot summer of the Oliver North hearings - it was always there like a sick dog on the living room floor

I have memories of being in Sanibel for the week and my mom upset that the hearings preempted her soap operas so she yelled at Daniel Inoye on TV.

Almost everything Trump has done has been sufficient evidence of something. I guess it depends how much weight you give "sufficient."

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 8 June 2017 13:13 (six years ago) link

depends how much weight you give something, too

alcohol aficionado zane lamprey (bizarro gazzara), Thursday, 8 June 2017 13:17 (six years ago) link

During the Coats and Rogers testimony, one of the committee members mentioned there was going to be a special session right after yesterday's hearing, and he asked them if they'd be willing to give answers then -- they gave some such answer "we sincerely hope we can". Haven't seen much on this special session since then -- but if it happened, kind of takes the wind out of these public hearings a bit. Anyone seen anything more on this?

Dominique, Thursday, 8 June 2017 13:19 (six years ago) link

I hate Comey, but I kinda like the idea that Trump fired him for 'disloyalty', a few days later went 'COMEY BETTER HOPE THERE AREN'T ANY RECORDINGS OF OUR MEETINGS!!!!', after which Comey simply sent memo after memo to journalists.

Frederik B, Thursday, 8 June 2017 13:19 (six years ago) link

I hate Comey

At long last, something we can agree on

The question remains, who did he tell, how much did he tell them, who did he trust, and why? And while he clearly did tell other people, it is not clear he leaked any info, those other people could have leaked.

These are some questions, not necessarily the most important ones, but ones which might be answered by, you know, the answers he'll give today.

I guess it depends how much weight you give "sufficient."

The first sentence of that article translates it to "enough", if that's helpful.

I think not.

Yeah, we know - maybe pipe down for a bit?

Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 8 June 2017 13:26 (six years ago) link

"I suppose I am curious what the GOP peeps try to hit him with"

lol they're gonna spend their entire time asking him if he knows who's been leaking to WaPo

"follow up : are you aware of any ILLEGAL UNMASKING"

Not really. Toobin, all sorts of people have called Trump's infractions "sufficient." But until it forces congress to act, they are by definition insufficient.

are you aware of any ILLEGAL UNMASKING"

alcohol aficionado zane lamprey (bizarro gazzara), Thursday, 8 June 2017 14:30 (six years ago) link

he would probably just say make fun of Comey's appearance in some way "Look at tie - AWFUL!"

Dean of the University (Latham Green), Thursday, 8 June 2017 14:31 (six years ago) link

Comey straight up admitting that Slick Willie's tarmac meeting with Lynch was what led to him throwing the election, lol

I remember the long hot summer of the Oliver North hearings - it was always there like a sick dog on the living room floor

I was working in some accounting firm in Newark (lol), and one morning an asshole executive came in, pointed to a pic of Ollie in the paper and declared, "That man should be PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!"

p sure that guy has died

I was pretty young but the sense I got from the North hearings was that everyone in the media/irl was in love with the rascal
