I love how so many of the MSM and Schumer are saying the firing was unjustified, yet as recent as last week, they were calling for his firing, and it was his fault and the Russians that Hillary lost the election.

I love how the campaign Trump lauded Comey over the things he is now firing him for. Trump has never met a flip flop he doesn't like!
"That was so bad what happened originally, and it took guts for Director Comey to make the move that he made in light of the kind of opposition he had where they're trying to protect her from criminal prosecution," Trump said at a Michigan campaign rally.
"It took a lot of guts."
"What he did, he brought back his reputation - he brought it back," Trump said.
"He's got to hang tough because a lot of people want him to do the wrong thing. He did the right thing."
What I see is an FBI that has been politicized by the left much like the IRS was politicized, and this is just draining the swamp. Hopefully someone impartial will take his place, and do the job they are supposed to do.
Besides that, the whole time line where:
1) Loretta Lynch was on the plane with Bill Clinton secretly discussing "grandchildren";
2) Loretta Lynch refused to recuse herself but said she would follow whatever was recommended by the FBI because of the meeting with Billy.
3) Comey coming out a little while later and stating Hillary had been very free and easy with classified info, but he would not recommend prosecuting her. Gee, I wonder if Loretta and Comey spent some time discussing "grandchildren" as well. Is it the FBI's responsibility to not only investigate but to decide what gets prosecuted given the finding of mishandling of classified information?
4) Now we have an e-mail stating that Loretta Lynch was making sure that the investigation would not go too far, which smacks of collusion between her and Comey.
Obama showed what could be done when you use the full force of the federal government as a weapon against your political enemies. I certainly hope that gets corrected.
Comey is an idiot He's an idiot independent of who happens to be POTUS. No matter what you may think of obummer or Trump, Comey is still an idiot.
Krooked Killary is guilty (that's "is" not "was" since she is still guilty) of violating federal law Re: national security secrets. Comey knew that, and knows that now. But he protected Killary for political reasons. If there had been a real AG at the time, that AG would have come down hard on Comey. The FBI is a law enforcement agency. Its role is to gather evidence against criminals and then turn that evidence over to the AG. Comey declared himself "cop" and "prosecutor" and even "judge and jury" with that asinine crap of not wanting to influence an election. Killary IS GUILTY....PERIOD!
And Comey is UNEMPLOYED!
BTW....watch where he ends up. Probably on George Soros' staff.
The optics of this look bad. Trump was singing the guys praises (I mean, he did help get the man elected by saying they were investigating Hillary even though they later could not find the evidence to show she committed a crime. Also, he has admitted the FBI was investigating improper dealings between Trump hacks and Russia but didn't decide to disclose that during the campaign). But then Comey admits he is leading an investigation into Russian interference and the ties to some people that were on Trump campaign, and the guy gets canned.
If that doesn't bother conservatives, then you have truly lost your principles and have no credibility anymore.
Russian interference in the election...:laugh:
Killary got REJECTED by true-blue Americans! Period. End of story.
You libtards just have to deal with reality for a change.
TRUMP IS PRESIDENT!!!
(I'm not a Trump fan, but his mere existence so irks libtards I'm enjoying this...)
This is despotic behavior.
Attack the courts and the media. Eliminate your critics and those that attempt to hold you accountable to the rule of law. Identify enemies that align with prejudice of your political base. Spread lies and misinformation through propaganda channels.
If your sheeple continue to rally around you, keep pushing the boundaries until no one can check your power.
Humanity has seen this story played out before. One of the things that I have always struggled to grasp is how a reasonably educated, economically prosperous, cultural society could allow Hitler to amass the power and do the destruction that he did. Always wondered - if that happened then and there - could that ever happen here and under what circumstances? As I watch this play out and see some of my fine alumn colleagues champion and enable these patterns all because the guy claims to represent their party - I have to wonder, at what point do you dissent?
