Wasn't President Obama more in bed with Russia and Syria?  I seem to remember President Obama, SOS Kerry, and NSA Rice all saying Russia had forced Syria to get rid of all their chemical weapons.  Seems that last Administration was covering for Russia.

 

 

 

So, you're saying the republicans should have called an investigation on Obama and didn't? Seems they missed their opportunity - again.

 

Don't you think it sound suspicious that Trump fired the man who was in charge to investigate him? Doesn't it sound like something you'd expect to take place in Venezuela or Cuba?

Comey Violated the Hatch Act and must be fired:

Comey gets fired.. Huffpost's front cover, a picture of Trump with "NIXONIAN" and "Comey Fired Because He 'Could Bring Down A President'".

 

From virtually every source, reading past the headlines, they point out that Comey was under fire for ethics issues that were borderline illegal, if not illegal. People in the FBI recently made statements condemning Comey. The left media relies on people with the memory of dog poop to help them shovel their garbage, thankfully some of us don't selectively have that.

If he can bring down a president what makes them think this is no longer the case?  I am so amazed at the tizzie the MDL is whipping themselves into here.  Comey is still alive, and still can talk, if he has the goods on President Trump and all this "collusion" business he can still do it, unlike Vince Foster.

WASHINGTON — Days before he was fired, James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, asked the Justice Department for a significant increase in money and personnel for the bureau’s investigation into Russia’s interference in the presidential election, according to three officials with knowledge of his request.

Mr. Comey asked for the resources during a meeting last week with Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who wrote the Justice Department’s memo that was used to justify the firing of the F.B.I. director this week.

It is possible Sean Spicer, Steve Bannon and Kelly Anne Conway are aliens from another planet...but we don't have proof...yet

Just like the proof you have of collusion.  That is the point.  The Left can keep the narrative going, but with no proof it will die eventually.  Heck, there was more proof that Hillary, President Obama and Susan Rice colluded to lie to the American people about Benghazi and in that one people died.

I think the point that you're missing is that Trump fired the men who was investigating him, and how that comes of top of several ethics questions that have been raised in regard to this administration.

 

Here is a parallel i am sure you will understand: Suppose Obama had fired the man in charge of investigating his birth certificate. There! See how easy that was?

Was there more than one firing yesterday?

with no investigations, or just propped investigations - there will be no proof. can't be that naive not to see that 'issue'

Millions of taxpayer dollars later spent by Republicans nothing was found. There was numerous investigations into the whole thing and NOTHING.

I don't think it's funny because the decision he made last night has only ever occurred once in the entire history of this country. 1973.....look it up.

So a president has fired the FBI director only once in the history of the FBI?
