  • On Tuesday, May 8, The Washington Post hosted former FBI Director James Comey for a one-on-one conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Carol Leonnig. Comey discussed his new book, “A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership,” and President Trump’s response to it. He addressed why he sees the Trump presidency as a "forest fire,” his handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation and his controversial firing a year ago. The discussion also covered the Mueller investigation, Russian meddling in the 2016 election, and the legal challenges facing the Trump presidency.

    I'm no FBI CIA nsa nor am I an EIEIO kinda person, but I think I can pretty much discern Jim's true reasoning for the "October Surprise" in 2016 election. Remember at the beginning of the interview when Jim said (paraphrasing) "I was expecting or hoping to do out my last 6 yrs or at least 4 of them". And also he was "rather surprised that Hillary really didn't have leadership qualities". So what's it to him to assess her presidential leadership skills? I'm wondering, did intelligence agencies already know the "Trump Outcome" was probable
    & perhaps Jim cut a deal with Trump to completely & finally throw Hillary under the bus? Then Trump, doing his usual one-sided contractual addendum, wanted more from Jim than Jim was willing to do. Now I thought this scenerio out because Jim's reasoning on the issue of "Oct Surprise" is so weak & not that of the leader he proclaims to be. NO. WHEN JIM FOUND OUT HE HAD TO JOIN A POWERFUL INNER CULT OF WHICH DONALD JOHN TRUMP WAS HAILED AS THE REINCARNATED BABYLONIAN KING CYRUS JIM FREAKED OUT & HE HAD TO LEAVE.
    Jim, I'm not saying 2016 was your fault; I'm saying I'm going to blame you.

He was a man for that specific moment in time, as painful as the result has been in the short and medium turn, in the long view he will be seen as a patriot by those who understand what he is saying and evaluate it in a neutral way. Too bad we can't see a hero when he/she are standing right before us.

    Dec. 2019
    Some FBI personnel "did not comply with existing policies, neglected to exercise appropriate diligence, or otherwise failed to meet the standard of conduct that the FBI expects of its employees - and that our country expects of the FBI," Director Christopher Wray said in a statement. "We are vested with significant authorities, and it is our obligation as public servants to ensure that these authorities are exercised with objectivity and integrity. Anything less falls short of the FBI's duty to the American people."
    Attorney General William Barr also criticized the FBI, accusing the bureau of "gross abuses" and "intrusive techniques" in an interview with NBC News on Tuesday in which he also suggested the FBI may have investigated the Trump campaign in "bad faith."

She just wasn't the kind of crook likely to lead our country into a morass of deregulation, white supremacy, fear, confusion, international alienation, and environmental degradation. Comey got played because someone crafty knew he'd feel impelled to try and do the right thing.

    I find myself really liking this man...and I think it's because he shows real integrity. His answers are spontaneous, his manner forthright. I don't know much about him and rarely follow US politics but Comey comes across as a decent, conscientious human being. It would be difficult to put Mr Trump in that category whose manner always seems to be uncomfortable and his responses contrived.

      Lillie Holmes your statement is uninformed. Donald Trump’s lies are up to about 13, 000. Trump loves to fire people. Remember his reality show, which I confess I never watched. James Comey will always be relevant. Trump is a national embarrassment, Comey was the head of the F.B.I. Trump fired just about everyone, and installed so called acting candidates. Trump will go down as the most incompetent person to have occupied the Whitehouse. I am embarrassed by the Trump supporters, I don’t understand why you fail to understand that someone who had six bankruptcies, and now has 15 indictments awaiting him when he leaves office is not an effective leader for our nation. Not to mention how he has embarrassed us in dealing with the European nations at NATO meetings , etc. One last thing, James Comey is not a liar. Next time you decide to smear someone, try actually coming up with some facts.
