President Trump Fires FBI Director James Comey

[Jacque67 7,328]

(CNN)Senate Russia investigators have sent a request to the Treasury Department's criminal investigation division for any information related to President Donald Trump, his top officials and his campaign aides, the top Democrat on the Senate intelligence committee told CNN Tuesday. 

"We've made a request, to FinCEN in the Treasury Department, to make sure, not just for example vis-a-vis the President, but just overall our effort to try to follow the intel no matter where it leads," Sen. Mark Warner told CNN. "You get materials that show if there have been, what level of financial ties between, I mean some of the stuff, some of the Trump-related officials, Trump campaign-related officials and other officials and where those dollars flow -- not necessarily from Russia."

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

No, obviously you aren't paying attention as to why this runs parallel to 1973.

you got me with al franken, i don't think he's funny. 

do you really believe trump is getting the short end of the deal with the all the mockery? i guess you do, but for those of us who aren't giving trump pass after pass after pass after pass..dude is inept. it's funny. he's definitely brought back the feel good bush jr era back to late night tv. the jokes practically write themselves.

I never said President Trump was getting the short end.  Like every other President before him except for one, he will and should be subject to the ridicule from the late night comedians.  My only point was that the comedians treated one president differently showing that they are/were indeed racist as the only reason I can see why they treated him differently was due to his skin color.

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.

Bringing up Vince Foster, that's digging deep. Talk about some major league deflection! Strongly worded too! How much time and money was spent "investing" the Vince Foster affair? How many times can it be dredged up? For one of the "show me proof" crowd it seems more like "proof" is only needed if it involves Dear Leader.

THE WORST President in my lifetime. He's incompetent, embarrassing, egotistical and narcissistic. Unfortunately 40% of the population think he's doing a great job. 

Actually, President Obama was the worst president of my lifetime right behind Jimmy Carter.  President Trump may end up being worse, but it is too early to tell, and I don't like judging based on a hundred or so days.

you're assuming that commedians treated obama differently because they didn't want to be perceived as racist. i see it deferentially. like you said, most late night comedians are left leaning, so they wouldn't have so many differences to mock and won't find obama commentary asinine off the tip - like obama haters do.

 

so what do you think about comey asking for more money to investigate russia and getting fired days later?

Trump loves Putin though, Putin was just the beginning he is now starting to fall in love with Erdogan, Duterte and Kim Jong Un. Wonder what they all have in common?

Repeating something often enough does not make it true.

Ok...so do people really want trump impeached so badly that we'd have President Pence?  My mom is convinced that there'd just be another election

Any President that can trash the honeymoon phase of the first hundred days as Trump has is a shoe in for worst President ever!

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

Diane Feinstein already said no evidence existed and she saw all the classified stuff.  The MDL is beginning to sound like those on the Right that kept saying just keep digging, just keep digging...just keep digging, just keep the narrative alive.

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

And you think this investigation that you are so passionate about will turn out any differently?  There is a bridge.....
