Trump Fires FBI Director

[westend1]

Trump fired him because the attorney general made that recommendation.  Unlike certain predecessors, Trump apparently chose to listen to the advice of some of those associated with him;

 

Sessions, the former junior senator from Alabama, said the FBI director "must be someone who follows faithfully the rules and principles of the Department of Justice and who sets the right example for law enforcement officials and others in the department.

"Therefore, I must recommend that you remove Director James B. Comey, Jr. and identify an experienced and qualified individual to lead the great men and women of the FBI."

Isn't this the same guy who was recused from the investigation?

Yes it is.  The actual recommendation to terminate came from  Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, a former U.S. Attorney with a straight-up-the-middle reputation who was only recently confirmed by the Senate by a 96-4 margin

I guess the Libs changed their views since yesterday.  

Just can't make them happy...Trump simply following through on what they wanted.

Lol.  A deputy made this call? You are kidding, right?

[westend1]

So someone explain why a guy who recused himself from this issue after lying to congress should be making any recommendations

He can't make that call? Someone needs to tell him. Lol

It ain't Barney Fife.

Why is the left so upset about this?  Their minions wanted the same thing, Reid and  Pelosi.  So nappyroots, westend, or new tobie, why the backlash over this?  Your party "leaders" wanted the same thing.

That is why Comey was fired to get rid of the Communist influence left from the Obomanation. 

Errbody on the liberal left is either a commie or sympathetic to the spreading of wealth, forget that one can't influence the electoral college, but this one fact remains. You can always trust a communist to be a communist so they spew half-truths and outright lies and the sheep eat it up.

True!  You need to stop listening to CNN (Commie News Network).  They are still trying to push the Trump/Russia angle.  The Media/Dimms are so desperate for a cause.  They can't even make up one!  sad!  But I'm loving it watching them go more in sane!

[Reagan]

Just in case some our liberal friends missed this.

Two people that should be ashamed over the Comey firing, one is Comey himself and the other is the guy who hired him.

The groups of people who are showing thier true colors over this are those who like the swamp and the Democrats who have been reading The Bible but taking notes from the Pharasiess and Saducees.

 

My grammer teacher from back in the day would be so proud....

the dems were asking for him to leave just a few short weeks ago and now that he's gone they act like they are mad about it! Liars and cheats just cant figure them out.

The problem is the fact that he was fired while investigating Trump's potential ties to Russia. Richard Nixon did the same thing when he was being investigated. He fired the FBI director.

[stevenash]

And you believe that the "investigation" stops because Comey is gone?

Firing Comey is 100% proof of a coverup, but hiding a private server in a bathroom and deleting 30,000 emails is standard operating procedure.

Do you trust Comey to have lead a credible investigation?

Nixon didn't fire the director of the FBI.  Bill Clinton was the only president to do that before this week.

You beat me to it. Comey was the only investigator the FBI had. The rest were playing golf. Lmao 

Another bright idea by Lamont.

Do you trust whoever trump picks now?  His spokeswoman said the investigation has gone on too long.  I doubt there is much of a connection between trump and Russia, but haven't you seen enough to cause some concern?   Having sessions, who lied to congress about his own Russian connections, make this decision, should be cause for concern

Lol. No, Nixon just fired the ag, the deputy ag, and the special prosecutor.  Still known as the Saturday night massacre.
