I'm waiting for someone to say "hey, we need to get ALL of Comey's memos as Director so we can evaluate the context of these".....when that happens time to get the popcorn.

Meaning his memos that have nothing to do with Trump?

Yep. Has he written anything like this before, and if so what actions did he take / who did he tell? Was the Trump conversation extraordinary in its nature, or something unremarkably casual that Comey simply wrote down for the record?

Also it is a violation of federal law to not, as soon as possible, report the commission of a felony to the proper governmental authorities. An FBI director is fully aware of this. Leaking a memo to the press after getting sacked smells of something other than upholding the rule of law.

I never thought of that angle. That would be pretty interesting if they did request all of his memos.

Different topic.......

So Roger Ailes died today. Like him or not, like Fox news or not....he died and left a grieving family behind.

The comments on social media today are way over the top, IMO.

Being gleeful that he died is putrid...and the people who are making these comments are no better.

I'd guess comments referencing how he's a habitual sexual harasser.

Figured as much. I would fully expect the internet not to take the high road for stuff like this. When his liberal counter part dies, the same shit will happen.

Hell, a lot of us were guilty when Art Modell passed away lol.

The guy was a sexual harasser and creep. I'm supposed to be mourning him and say nice things about him just because he died?

There's a fair amount of room between mourning him and people posting that they're happy he's dead.

This needs to be posted in the "Disgusted with Progressives" thread because only progressives care about political correctness.

This.

Just like the old addage....If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Yeah, but you can't say anything like this about a liberal without ducking-and-cover.

Seriously, the comments I read on tech blogs these days are as bad (and ignorant) as anything you'll find on Breitbart. The main difference is the tech blogs contain a comical level of self-superiority.

Ugh. The Seth Rich story is complete bullshit.

Basically, the family, the cops, and FBI said the story is bullshit.

There is more evidence of Trump Russian collusion than Seth Rich was murdered for DNC email Wikileaks cover up.

Are you capable of anything besides shooting the messenger? Obviously you cannot refute the content.

I read one sentence of the content, saw it was some derp who called a celeb a jackass because some words turned him into a snowflake and figured that sort of "reading" was best left to the feeble-minded.

Enjoy!
