Comey is going to testify tomorrow in a closed session of the Senate Intelligence Committee

Subpoenas are being issued, indictments have been handed down. Trump is desperately trying to hold back the tide of history with his bare hands. And failing. Miserably. In public.

I have said this before: Comey is a White Hat.



This is war.

We may have our James McCord moment as soon as tomorrow.

For our younger DUers, McCord was the Watergate figure who, in a letter sent to the judge handing down the sentence for his role in the Watergate burglary, implicated Nixon and people within the President's inner circle.

He was in LA today.

Comey was 'caught flat-footed' and learned of firing from TV while talking to FBI agents in L.A., source says

Comey is set to testify before Congress Thursday, and may address the issue then.

...integrity and principle and that I have always referenced how when he was Acting Attorney General during Bush administration and John Ashcroft was in the hospital following surgery, it was Comey who blocked then WH attorney Gonzales to getting access to Ashcroft and signing.

I believe that he has been leading a behind the scenes very active investigation into Trump and his cabal. And the truth will be revealed soon. And that the Hilary letter may have been to allow the Trump people think they were safe.
