James Comey was just referred to the Attorney General for prosecution and the AG has declined to prosecute. Your thoughts?

@SooperSarah 😂 And it was Comey who illegally assumed the role of NOT referring her for prosecution!

@SooperSarah were you here for the Nixon show?

Like the way life imitates art,

these characters all copy from one another,

And build on the ones who did it before them.

@Platoscave nope

@PainfulTruth I tend to agree, and apparently so does the AG. I listened to an analysis by two former prosecutors last night, and they feel that small things must be allowed to pass by, so that the larger issue will be fully prosecuted.

I hope Comey saved all the proceeds from his book and all his CNN interviews to pay for his legal fees.

@Mamapolo2016 Let's hope it is not.

What happened to Nixon? Resignation
Watergate investigation in dollars of that time - $26 million.

What happened to Clinton? Nothing. - “multi-million investigation.”

I know those figures are trifling government-wise, but they were wasted.

“Investigations” are what they do to keep us from noticing important things.@4meAndyou

@Mamapolo2016 Yes, a case could be made that Comey engineered the entire Mueller investigation, which cost the taxpayers at least $25 million, (at last count), and possibly more, based on a false document or hoax.

@abe182 It appears that John Durham is actually doing the job we all hoped he would do.

@cherokeepatti So they say.

@Callmedaddy I thought this post was about the prosecution of Comey? Yet you've stated that partisan politics divides us, and you go on to insult the president.
I suppose you believe that is not divisive?

Please don't mention partisan politics if you only wish to perpetuate your sound bytes.

Cause and effect.

Trump asked Comey to scuttle an investigation into Flynn. Comey writes a memo detailing situation. Comey doesnt comply with the president's demand and is ultimately fired. Week after he is fired delivers memo to a friend who then leaks to the press which causes the special counsel to be formed. Special council report doesn't exonerate the president of criminal wrong doing for a reason. It allows for potential prosecution after he's left office.

If President Trump wasn't being shady, then Comey wouldn't have had to leak the contents of the memo.

Realize you want this thread to be only about the fact that DOJ will not prosecute Comey but Trump's stubby little fingers are all over this topic as he created the situation with partisan politics and we continue that fight amongst ourselves. Meanwhile the elite continue to maintain power while we debate among one another.

@Callmedaddy President Trump is a hero. Comey the con man is a traitor that deserves the electric chair. Trump 20/20

@xixgun Even just making a horrific stink in the courts to point out the illegal things he did will benefit the nation in the long run. Right now almost 50% of the populace have been made to believe that Comey is a noble hero.

@xixgun He could be if they find enough for him to go to a tribunal.

@4meAndyou Those that feel he is a hero still won't believe it. Even if they heard Comey admit it.
He should be drowned like a sack of rats.

@pismo They sent what is called a SNOOP team to recover the documents, which is only done when classified documents have been illegally removed from their protected storage at the FBI. The documents were all labelled as classified, not to be seen by foreign governments.

Comey himself [i][i]changed their classification!!![/i][/i] He unclassified the documents, and then leaked them.
