    This senator just found a way James Comey could still be involved in the Trump-Russia investigation

    Wow ,,this would be great,,we would certainly get the truth if this works out. Talk about going after everything you can. Comey could focus on it and it alone. Talk about due diligence and vigor.

    Comey aimed to expand Russia probe



    FBI Director James Comey was trying
    to expand the bureau’s investigation
    ahead of his dismissal by US President
    Donald Trump, says a congressional source.




    FBI Director James Comey was trying to expand the bureau’s
    investigation ahead of his dismissal by US President Donald
    Trump, says a congressional source.

    Comey recently asked the Justice Department to provide more
    funding for the FBI probe into alleged ties between Trump’s
    associates and Russia, the source told Reuters on Wednesday.

    As Comey was pressured by lawmakers to speed up the investigation,
    he notified the Senate intelligence committee of his request, just before
    being abruptly dismissed by the president on Tuesday.

    The president has introduced Andrew McCabe as the acting FBI director
    to temporarily replace Comey.
    A protester wears an effigy of Donald Trump in front of the White House during a protest demanding an independent investigation in the Trump-Russia ties after the firing of FBI Director James Comey in Washington, DC, May 10, 2017.

    ‘Trump above law’

    The move has outraged Democrats with Massachusetts Senator
    Elizabeth Warren, asserting that the president “wants to cut
    off any investigation” into his activities.

    “I think that there’s just no doubt given the timing that the reason
    that Comey was fired was because Donald Trump wants to cut
    off any investigation,” she told CNN Wednesday. "This is a moment
    in history. Donald Trump has tried to put himself above the law.

    “And that’s not how it works in America. The way it works in
    America is that investigations are independent, no matter
    how powerful you are, and that everyone has to follow the law.”

    The White House announced Comey’s dismissal, citing
    recommendation by Attorney General Jeff Sessions
    and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

    “While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate
    occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless
    concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you
    are not able to lead the bureau,” the Republican president wrote
    in a letter to Comey.

    Warrens specifically asserted that Rosenstein should explain his
    role in the dismissal.

    “Let’s get the deputy attorney general in here ... and let’s put him
    under oath and let’s let him explain directly to the members of the
    Judiciary Committee right here in the United States Senate exactly
    what it is that Director Comey asked for last week.”
    Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) leaves the podium
    after a news conference at the US Capitol following the firing of
    Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey by President
    Donald Trump May 9, 2017 in Washington, DC.

    Quashing an investigation

    Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer called for an
    “impartial and independent" investigation into Russia's alleged
    interference in the US 2016 vote that yielded President Trump.

    "The only thing we are seeking is that the investigations are carried
    out in an impartial and independent way, that we get all the facts,
    " Schumer said. "All we are seeking is some assurance that the subject
    of this investigation is not able to influence it or, God forbid, quash it."

    Schumer also highlighted Rosenstein's role in the administration’s move,
    saying, "Serious doubts have been cast on Mr. Rosenstein's impartiality…
    Mr. Rostenstein signed his name to a highly political memo arguing
    for Director Comey's dismissal."

    He further defended a Democratic effort to have Comey testify before t
    he Senate Intelligence Committee in a closed-door hearing next week,
    calling it the “right thing” to do.

    "We ought to hear from Mr. Comey. At this moment [there is] a profound
    doubt about the reasons and timing of FBI Director Comey's firing by
    the president, about the status and progress of the very serious
    investigation into the Trump campaign and Russia by his agency. We
    require answers," Schumer said, calling for a special prosecutor to deal
    with the issue.

    No special prosecutor!

    Tapping into Comey’s role to undermine the campaign efforts of
    Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton by revisiting an investigation
    into her emails, Trump called Democrats “hypocrites.”

    “Dems have been complaining for months & months about Dir. Comey.
    Now that he has been fired they PRETEND to be aggrieved. Phony
    hypocrites,” he said in a tweet.

    According to White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders
    (pictured below), “The president … had lost confidence in Director
    Comey… He’d been considering letting Director Comey go since the
    day he was elected.”

    GOPers are, meanwhile, resisting renewed calls for the appointment of a
    special prosecutor to see into the matter, arguing that it would impede
    investigations already underway in the House and Senate.

    "Today we'll no doubt hear calls for a new investigation, which could only serve
    to impede the current work being done," said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

    The stance was also boosted by Senate Intelligence Chairman Richard Burr
    as well as the White House spokeswoman.

    "We don't think it's necessary," Sanders said. "No one wants this to be finished
    and completed more than us."

    sally yates tells the w.h. that flynn was trouble than she gets fired. Preet is investigating the trump-ross- money laundering than he gets fired. Comey asks for more money on russia he gets fired. But there is no there-there. Trump hires lawyers to handle the russian-trump angle. The ask for documents on trump for money laundering. This guy is going down. I am old enough to remember nixon. It is called tampering and obstruction. Just wonder if this is impeachment or jail time.

    ^ Such a poor comparison... Trump has nothing to hide.. Just fired Comey as he thought the timing was right as things settled down..

    He did know the Russians were coming to the white house so maybe he did it to please them if anything.. That should be the story.. This investigation with Trump/Russia was going on for months and months now and Comey really had no part of..

    JUNK NEWS we are watching folks with the liberal news... PURE JUNK.... Conspiracy theories that's all..

    Months after Flynn himself got fired.

    He got fired because he did not resign like the other 46 other DA's who resign when asked. This is what every new administration does.

    Except you're getting your whole post almost verbatim from Fake News CNN where within this Yates/Preet/Comey fired-for-Russia omits that basic fact.

    My favorite clip of the day was the Colbert crowd applauding wildly when Colbert broke the news Comey was fired.

    That's when he informed them they should be booing the news. Like you, they have no idea what to think. They just go to Colbert or CNN for barking orders.

    Then i guess Comey should check his break lines and only fly commercial. Sure he has a dangerous wealth of knowledge on these ties. Too bad the clearance level will keep him from ever discussing any of it. Maybe he will "anonymously" source a few details.

    He was in CA and given no notice whatsoever. Comey's office was likely watched all day and secured the minute the call went out.
    And Comey anonymously talked shite about Trump on social media ... gotta go.

    He fired him after he asked for more money to investigate russia. He asked for an oath of loyalty from comey. Now if comey actually told him he wasn't being investigated than comey could be locked up.
