"...because he really was getting close to the truth about an improper connection between Trump and Russia? Putting aside the liberal histrionics we all love and enjoy, does the theory itself hold much merit? "
Obviously you're totally ignorant of how any federal (or other) law enforcement agencies function. The FBI Director is just a manager. He functions to communicate and coordinate policies between the agency and the president, congress, and the public. The job of conducting investigations is left to the Special Agents (criminal investigators) and specifically the assigned Case Agent who conducts and coordinates the investigation (with limited supervision from his direct Supervisory Special Agent). The termination of Comey will have zero effect on the investigation because Comey doesn't have anything to do with the actual investigation. He will receive updates from the SSA and ASAC, but, generally stays out of the investigation. Now, Comey, as the Director, can theoretically derail the investigation by cutting off resources, reassigning the case to a different Special Agent, ordering the case closed, or doing something else creative in sabotaging the investigation. But, the president cannot derail an investigation. The president can't fire or reassign the Special Agent investigating the case or order the case be closed. The president can fire the appointed management personnel at FBI and that's about all he can do. Except, that he can have influence over the appointed personnel at the DOJ and if they cooperated with that influence they could kill the prosecution of any case presented to them for prosecution by FBI or any other federal agency. This is all extremely unlikely. Obama and his corrupt officials have been swept from office so this level of corruption is unlikely (except for left over Obama remnants that haven't been exposed to the light of day yet). |

The position is irrelevant. Both were investigating the President and were fired in an attempt to stop the investigation. Pretty simple concept. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I know Trump "isn't a politician", but he's no rube either. If Comey really was on to something, the last thing Trump would do is fire him and shine the 87-zillion watt spotlight on him. And you also have zero proof that this was an attempt to stop the investigation. |

The position is not irrelevant. But if you can't distinguish between an FBI Director and an independent special prosecutor I can't help you. And you also have zero proof that this was an attempt to stop the investigation. View Quote IMPEACH TRUMP!!! |

No, not quite. It seems the Dems/MSN are all concerned about the AAG's reputation going forward and are saying Trump/Sessions made him their fall-guy. The Dems/MSN are trying to protect him because so many Dems voted to confirm him. They are trying to say he is "one of them". What with the Dems looking so bad trashing Comey when it was convenient to do so and now all concerned with his firing I guess they did not want to look really stupid to their base with a condemnation of the AAG they overwhelmingly confirmed just two weeks ago. |

The question that needs to be answered. If there is no answer then quit wasting tax payers dollars on this bullshit political hit job. "Tell me something, Mr. Schumer," Levin asked rhetorically, "can you name a single Russian, just one, who colluded with Donald Trump and his campaign? Just give us one. One. "You’ve got intelligence committees who’ve been investigating. You’ve had this interminable federal investigation that’s gone on. Let’s have it." http://static2.businessinsider.com/image/59134bce73f2f31b008b53f5-991/cexpgqxgaalt2r.jpg |

Comey has stated that he didn't recommend charges against Clinton due to the lack of "Intent" , that's not his FUCKING JOB , his job was to investigate and turn over Facts. Not Grand Stand in front of the Media. Don't forget the allowing of Clinton Understudies to destroy their laptops with hammers. He should have been fired after every single incident to set an example to do your job as you swore an oath to do. View Quote |

OP, youre on to something....I would think that with the unlimited manpower and resources available to them, the almost limitless authority, and even though Comey put on an air of no sense of urgency, traveling about, visiting with colleagues, attending social functions, making appearance like he was a rock star, I'm sure behind the scenes it was a fervor of activity, warrants, wiretaps, informants, international travel, interrogations, photographs on walls with strings going every which way like abstract art, moles being called upon after years of posing as a shoe cobbler, or a hot dog vendor on the sidewalk outside of the kremlin...and maybe not this week, or even next month, but just biding their time, maybe even 20 years from now, when Trump, after making yet another appearance signing books at one of his self financed presidential libraries, stops at a small bar and orders a 'Belyee' Russian, and out comes Comey and his boys in the blue raid jackets...Comey takes off of his raybans and as he's putting the cuffs on says something like in America we order a 'white' russian

Let me line this out for the nevertrumper democrats and the like...
The MSM hate trump as much as you do and wanted Hillary to win just as bad as you did. Therefore are spinning stories about Russian collusion daily in order to explain why they lost and to impeach Trump. |
