I am not a conspiracy theorist, think of a conspiracy and I don't believe it (vaccines cause autism, moon landing was faked, 9/11 was an inside job etc.)
However, Comey's behavior has been super out of the norm. Interfering in the elections was undemocratic, in violation of the hatch act, and disgusting. And frankly, the left should have raised hell about it, but did not.
He knew that Sessions lied to Congress and said nothing.
And he was super evasive when he met with Congress yesterday and seemed like he was blocking the Congressional investigation btw Trump and Russia

(45,002 posts)The CIA, NSA and other folks are being very deliberate and rightfully cautious about what info gets out surround the Trump-Putin conspiracy. Too much all at once and it's easier for Republicans (who control everything) to sweep under the rug. This relentless drip drip death of a thousand cuts will be the best thing in the long term - taking out the most bad guys while having the added benefit of being totally amusing. Enjoy the ride.

(7,432 posts)to pull it out and run for the hills. The FBI's investigation data won't go away. It WILL see the light of day. But when? Comey's waiting for the go-ahead. He's probably waiting for Congressional GOPers to give him the signal.
Nothing is impossible, however. Comey sure is acting as if he's a Russian asset. Every decision he makes protects Trumpy and the Russians, and it's looking as if it's beyond coincidence. Comey MUST realize this. He's not stupid. He's RAISING suspicions of Russian complicity, not challenging them.
