Comey Tweets Cryptic Message to Trump: People Will 'Hear My Story Very Soon'
Source: Mediaite
James Comey has taken to Twitter for the first time since Andrew McCabes firing with a direct message for President Trump.
In his lengthy statement on his firing last night, McCabe directly said, I am being singled out and treated this way because of the role I played, the actions I took, and the events I witnessed in the aftermath of the firing of James Comey. The release of this report was accelerated only after my testimony to the House Intelligence Committee revealed that I would corroborate former Director Comeys accounts of his discussions with the President.
Comey, who has a book coming out soon, has not yet tweeted directly about McCabe, but he did send this message to Trump:
Mr. President, the American people will hear my story very soon. And they can judge for themselves who is honorable and who is not.

Actually, I don't think that's particularly cryptic.
Comey is going to help take down that wannabe dictator in the White House.
And he'll be doing an interview with ABC before his book is released:

(14,173 posts)He has no comprehension of what "honorable" means. But it sounds like something good, so he probably imagines that he does have this 'honor' thing too....in fact his honor is probably the best kind of honor, believe him, nothing but the highest kind of honor. (whatever it is)

But if he hasn't got it, he's dead certain he can buy it.

(2,143 posts)Thanks for the heads up. I'll be interested to hear what he has to say.
For the first time since he was fired by President Trump, James Comey will sit down with ABC News' chief anchor George Stephanopoulos for an exclusive interview that will air during a primetime "20/20" special on April 15..
The publication date of A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies & Leadership was moved up to April 17 because the FBI is under intense scrutiny and there was a demand for the former FBI director to weigh in on the "urgent conversation" about the bureau, said Bob Miller, president of Flatiron Books, and Publisher Amy Einhorn

(2,143 posts)That should tide us over until the Comey interview in April. That leaves plenty of time to finish reading Michael Wolf's Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House. I like to read Malcolm Nance's The Plot to Hack America: How Putins Cyberspies and WikiLeaks Tried to Steal the 2016 Election every so often too.

Anderson Cooper's interview with Stephanie Clifford, the adult film star known as Stormy Daniels, is set to air on "60 Minutes" on Sunday, March 25.
The interview was taped last week. The air date has not been officially announced. But two sources involved with the story told CNN that it has always been slated for March 25.
There have been loud calls -- particularly from Trump critics -- for CBS to televise the interview sooner, given the swirling questions about her alleged relationship with Donald Trump and her acceptance of hush money shortly before Trump was elected president. Trump's lawyer and the White House have denied allegations of an affair.
The newsmagazine routinely takes weeks to edit its stories. In this case, "60 Minutes" producers wanted time to vet the allegations that Clifford leveled in the interview.

(24,283 posts)Trump will declare it "100% lies" and that will be case closed for the Trump slurpers. Back to square one.
I'm too much a child of the 60s to pin my hopes on anyone associated with the FBI helping us out with anything.

(296 posts)I wonder when he will come clean about helping Trump win the election by his last minute "Hillary's emails on Weiner's computer" bullshit. As far as I know, he has not given an appropriate answer for doing this. Especially with the timing of the accusation.

(5,810 posts)to life story of spies, lies and video tape. Our lives are being forever altered by tRump, Putin and god knows who else and we are subjected to these games. I am ready (way past ready) for us to know what the hell is going on. If Comey has information that will start the unraveling of this tale, he should start talking. But then maybe there is no one to trust and he has to do it in book form? But then again, he had to trust someone in publishing to do it that way.
No matter what, every day the truth is delayed is another day we are being sold out by tRump. It is frustrating as hell to think that there are people who know the truth who are keeping it from us. Why? Is the truth so awful that we can not survive it? Or is money at the root of it all, including those who know the whole story? I am wondering how this story is going to look once it is written in plain English. Gonna be rather ugly, I suspect. 😥

James Comey Fires Back At Trump, Vowing To Reveal Whos Honorable And Who Isnt
Former FBI director is about to bare his history with the president in a new book.
By Mary Papenfuss
Former FBI director James Comey fired back at President Donald Trump Saturday, vowing that his upcoming revelations will allow the American people to judge for themselves who is honorable and who is not.
Comey tweeted minutes after the president crowed again on Twitter about his Friday firing of FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe, who the president said was caught. Trump added: How many lies? How many leaks? Comey knew it all, and much more!

Trump later added:

(940 posts)a Republican ? not. this is the same republican who tanked hillary's presidency 9 days before the
election when trump WAS under investigation at the same time, which comey did not mention. Who's honorable?
none of them. Unless Comey is spilling the beans on the NY FBI and Julianni about Weiners computer. no thanks.
