    Comey’s handling of Trump meeting memos does not merit charges, Justice Department says

    Senior Justice Department officials have concluded that former FBI director James B. Comey should not be charged in connection with his handling of memos documenting conversations with President Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.

    The determination comes amid ongoing internal reviews focused on federal authorities’ investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and the Trump campaign. Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who is conducting one of the reviews, is unlikely to produce a final report on that subject for at least a month, but one aspect of his work is largely complete, these people say: Comey’s handling of the memos.

    Deciding not to charge the former FBI director, who has become an outspoken critic of President Trump since Trump fired him in May 2017, was “not a close call,” said a person who was not authorized to discuss the investigation and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

    A lawyer for Comey declined to comment, as did a spokesman for the inspector general’s office.

    This didn’t age well in a matter of hours:

  3. We have not seen it yet. The prosecution thing on the leaking is not going to happen. Yeh. But Comey is most definitely not going to be happy with the IG's report. It will be highly critical of the corrupt clown show he ran/enabled and put his legacy deeper into the toilet. The whole purpose of Comey leaking to his law professor buddy was to get an independent counsel appointed who he wanted to go after Trump and Comey would supposedly ended out looking like the white knight in the end. That did not happen, and ain't going to happen. Comey is plunging deeper into the muck with each month and year that goes by. And he has more woes ahead, many more.

    I will tell ya one thing that is not aging well: And that is James Comey. He has a very tough year ahead of him, and some of the recent ones have not been all that good for him either.

    By the way, what do McCabe and Comey have for jobs and positions these days? Oh, I see. You want fries with that?

  5. Oh, I see. This is one of your "play stupid" days versus just "be stupid."

    Sorry, Cowboy. Try again.

    I don’t play dumb. I honestly don’t know what in the world he could be charged with.

  8. You are a binary person which causes you to look at the IG report as directed toward either charge/not charge.

    The IG's job is more than that, in fact, that is not even his job- beyond criminal referrals where indicated.

    But beyond that he can make or break the entire career and legacy of an agency and its senior leadership and reveal inner workings that help the public to form better opinions about who the dirty rats are and are not. AND THERE HAS BEEN PLENTY OF THAT ALREADY. MORE TO COME.
    The IG's findings also serve to provide a quasi-independent predicate for real criminal investigations to occur AND THERE HAS BEEN PLENTY OF THAT ALREADY TOO. You and your ilk who think that Durham is just doing a community survey are seriously in a trance-stance.

    I am okay either way. Horowitz is just part of the chain of events. If Comey the Clown is feeling copacetic about what will be said about him and senior leadership at the FBI as recounted by Horowitz, then fine. Not for me to ruin his day. There are others who are about to do that.

  9. Breaking news: TRUDEAU BECOMES FIRST PRIME MINISTER IN CANADIAN HISTORY TO VISIT A GAY BAR. Yup. A born leader.

    The title should be changed a little to say: This is the first time that Justin has visited a gay bar as prime minister, eh?
