    Your assertion is largely still only a matter of opinion. The FBI investigation may have concluded, but the issue has yet to be resolved. FOIA lawsuits persist, and though MSM refuses to report on it, Comeys immunity deals are being reviewed by committee.

    Where have we heard or read that the FBI investigation is concluded? I missed that.

    Like the birther thing?
    Your man, crocked Donnie is not smart enough to get over on people he doesn't pay.
    He is what you get from spoiled little rich boys who never had to earn respect, because he could fire and buy his way to all he could handle......lol...poor Donnie, now his life sucks. The lesson is as always; careful what you wish for, you might get it.

    Meaning was clear.

    I firmly believe that sedition is afoot and people will hang.

    Like the msm you're running with, false charges with the intention of unseating a duly elected official is sedition.

    It's my belief that charges against "anonymous' folk and the accomidating press will ensue.

    Cheers

    They will slow walk as they have been doing and leave the sinking ship once they are made to pay for their corruption.

    And that's exactly how it will probably go down. It will be a long drawn out process. But it is my hope, that the longer it drags out, the more of a corrupt resume the party will keep building for itself. Most of us are already fully aware of that resume now. But it's going to take a lot more though to steer the willful sheep on the right course. When you have these Trump voters who say they don't care, they will physically need to see the lions den in front of them to finally wake up and move away from it, I'm afraid. It's going to take a fear of God moment for these ignorant people to come around.

    I was confused with another story, it's hard to keep them all straight.

    This is the story I was referring to.

    The term they use in terms of obstruction of Justice is is "for corrupt purpose"//

    And having Pence and Sessions leave the room so that Trump could ask if he was under investigation without them being witness demonstrates that. Trumps actions in firing Comey and admitting it was because he would not drop the investigation further supports that

    Here is a named source that said it didn't happen.

    according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official.

    Here is the source of the NYT story. You're being gaslighted.

    I dont know if i would have automatically assumed it was fake at that point, but it would have made the report more suspect.

    Sedition? Heh, I'm not sure that was as clear as you thought when you wrote,
    "Is it the source that's protected or the reporter? The source is not protected." But whatevs...
    Like I said before, if the reporters and or their sources are making stuff up regarding something like this,
    they could be opening themselves up to quite a bit of trouble, which is exactly why I think it is far more likely
    that they aren't simply making this stuff up. And btw, are you suggesting that that whole Nixon Watergate affair was mere sedition?

    Comey is a nut job. In the Blue Room he tried to wear a blue suit and stand against the blue drapes thinking that Trump wouldn't spot him. The guy is 6' 8"? Amazingly, Trump spotted him despite his clever camouflage! Something is clearly not right about Comey, or the deranged Press for that matter.

    The Press has lost it's mind to the point where they have clearly become disturbing. They're humorless. They want to hurt people, and they're swarming President Trump like a street gang swinging bicycle chains. They're so convinced of their own righteousness that they'd shame the Pharisees. They're so angry about how those citizens out there in cow country – those grimy coal miners, lumbermen, country preachers, small-town businessman, and housewives – those "white trash," in the words of that Yale Dean – ignored what was good for them and elected Trump and a Republican House and Senate that they'd visit smallpox on every American man, woman, and child living between the San Andreas Fault and the Wabash River if they could.

    No joke. It's holy water sprinkling, necklaces of garlic, exorcist time in American politics as far as the deranged press is concerned.

    Comey went to the event to represent the FBI, telling Wittes he hoped he could blend in with the curtains by wearing the dark blue suit and standing in the back of the room. He thought that under those conditions, Trump might not spot him and call him out.

    "He thought he had gotten through and not been noticed or singled out and that he was going to get away without an individual interaction," Wittes said Comey told him.

    Comey's plan failed. Trump spotted him.

    The guy's a weirdo.

    You guys all knew that before Trump fired him, but the moment Trump fired him, you bestowed sainthood on him.

    Nut-job!

    I'm going to have to remember, when reading anything posted by zorro, to immediately look for a link at the bottom of the page to see who actually wrote it. It's too bad some people have a problem expressing their own thoughts.


    ETA: Some of zorro's post came from his bottom-of-page link, some of it didn't. Wonder where the rest came from? Some Alt-Right site further out there than AmericanThinker?

    Notice you choose to ignore the statement where he told the Russians that firing comey took the pressure (only he was feeling) off of the Russian investigation and now he might be able to get on with paying back his marker. ;)

    Woodward: Reporters ‘binge drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid.’

    Veteran journalist Bob Woodward called on the national media Friday to keep focused on reporting straight news, after many reporters have revealed a bias against President Trump.

    Friday on MSNBC, Woodward said he knows of too many reporters who have strayed from objectivity and shown an excessive hostility toward the White House.

    Stick to the reporting,” he said. “Stick to the reporting. … One of the realities we have here is we have a good, old newspaper war going, the New York Times and the Washington Post and some very powerful stories. At the same time, I think it’s time to dial back a little bit about because there are people around … who are kind of binge drinking the anti-Trump Kool-Aid. And that is not going to work in journalism.

    You obviously trust the Washington establishment and the mainstream media much more than I do. MUCH more! There's an old saying which goes 'You can't beat the system.', but from what I can tell The Donald is having a bloody good go at proving it wrong. He's doing well in SA at the moment, and is expected to continue in the same vein - is that what's worrying you?

    Anyone, especially the director of the FBI, admitting to hiding behind the curtains to hide from the POTUS....IS, a "nutjob".
