1. If it is just him, I'm afraid he may be there to help 45.

[VMA131Marine]

2. Could Trump be trying to fire him?

It's Friday afternoon; nothing good happens this late on a Friday.

[Leghorn21]

5. hmmm...a reply to the posted tweet:

@KFaulders @primadonna001

I'll put $5 on "fire him and charge him for leaking." The purges begin. The blowback will be impeachment.

11:30 AM - 24 Mar 2017

3. Wants to give trump and crew a head start.n/t

[shraby]

4. Wish there was some scuttlebutt on it. I hate to know something is going on and not to

know why.

[shraby]

6. Could this have anything to do with it?

From an earlier post on du talking about something Andrea Mitchell said
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=8843736

That she hears that there are Whitehouse staff people purging their phones of tweets and messages because they are afraid that they will be subpoenaed.

12:55 on MSNBC- "From single source...former transition team members purging .." I wanted to be precise. Just went back and rewatched this.

[Leghorn21]

8. Thanks for taking the trouble to collect and post this, shraby!! eom

[Idoru]

12. Good guess

Might be.

[DK504]

14. LOL ... do these little trolls understand NOTHING can go away forever

from the Interwebs ????

[Jonny Appleseed]

19. Are they "smashing them with hammers"?

The irony would be delicious.

[wordpix]

29. no doubt this is it IF Comey is walking the line

which remains to be seen after his Oct surprise right before electn

[snort]

7. It's called getting your story straight.

Same reason Nunes was there yesterday.

[DeminPennswoods]

9. WH has already been told by McGahn, the WH counsel

to preserve all records, paper and electronic.

[Idoru]

10. Hmmm

Wonder what is up now. It's a thrill-ride any day I have time to follow the news, now, I tell you. No such thing as a "non-news day" anymore.

[toska]

11. In the middle of the health care debacle, why?

The white house has to be busy calling members as fast as they can, and Comey walks in the door? There's no way this is a normal meeting. Probably too soon for frog marches, though I think the reported "purging of messages" might force his hand soon.

[annabanana]

17. I think the WH has washed it's hands of the Health Care bill . .

tRump got tired of talking about it and decided to blame the debacle on Ryan.

[ananda]

13. OK

50 cents says he'll be fired. The other 50 cents says that 45 will be arrested. Hah. The other 50 cents says he'll blow a lot of smoke and mirrors. And yeah, I did the math.

[MineralMan]

16. Well, you can forget the arrest of Trump.

So, you're even at a buck.

Comey can't arrest the President of the United States. Can't be done. Period. End of story.

[DK504]

15. He's telling the shitgibbon

he's better resign before he goes to prison for treason.

[MineralMan]

18. This is very interesting on a Friday.

Perhaps we're about to find out what the Friday news dump is going to be.

If Comey went over there to show Trump the evidence he has on him and his sycophants, it may trigger thoughts of resignation.

"Mr. President. It is my duty to inform you that we have assembled irrefutable evidence of collusion between you, your campaign, and the Russian effort to disrupt the 2016 election. I just wanted to give you a head's up that I will be handing over all of that evidence to the Justice Department and the House and Senate Intelligence Committees. You may wish to consider your options, based on this. Good day, Mr. President."

[Drops heavy packet of papers on Oval Office desk and walks out.]

[Leghorn21]

21. Oh so beautifully written, Man! This, to me, is the biggest piece of "breaking news" in

the tsunami of "breaking news" we now struggle through every..hour...standing by here -

[MineralMan]

23. It's just speculation, but that's how I'd put it if I were Comey.

[Leghorn21]

34. Yes, but it's the most wonderful piece of "speculation" I ever heard...please please please n/t

[Catherine Vincent]

22. Friday News dump

What is the average time?

[MineralMan]

24. Any time in the afternoon.

Today, though, probably after the healthcare vote, if there is one. Speculation, of course.

[NWCorona]

25. I think around 5pm nt

[NWCorona]

28. I don't trust Comey one bit but if he resigns that would almost guarantee that Trump walks

Unless he has a press conference saying that he's out and an independent prosecutor should be appointed.

It's gonna be interesting for the next few hours I think.

[MineralMan]

31. Well, we should be finding out what Comey's visit was about

before too long. Maybe.

Maybe he could do an impromptu news conference. I'm sure there are news folks with cameras somewhere nearby.

[kentuck]

36. The Deputy Atty General should appoint a special investigator.

Since Sessions has recused himself from anything to do with the Russia affair.

[world wide wally]

20. Does the WH have a 4th floor?

[leftstreet]

32. snarf

[hamsterjill]

33. Yeah, and a bath tub, right?

[bathroommonkey76]

[Idoru]

27. Given the sieve that is this WH

We will find out soon enough what went down.

[bathroommonkey76]

35. We'll know around prime-time tonight.

Here's video of Comey leaving the WH.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

30. I think Steve Bannon needs help moving his bathtub from a fourth story window.

And Comey's just the guy to do it.

[randome]

37. "And by the way, Sir, this is my 45 that I'm going to accidentally leave here on your desk."

"See ya!"
