James Comey, in 'A Higher Loyalty,' says he feared 'illegitimate' Hillary Clinton presidency

Instead of treating Hillary Clinton more harshly because he thought she’d win.

And Spanky’s really going off the deep end over Comey’s book:

Etc.

Ronna McDaniel

According to CNN, the RNC has put together an “exhaustive” plan to undermine the credibility of Jim Comey, whose book tour starts this week: The Republican plan against Comey is built around several aggressive arguments, according to the plan obtained by CNN, including these: 1) “Comey has a long history of misstatements and misconduct,” including damage… Continue reading “Republicans made a plan to discredit Comey — and it leaked” →

But I do like gossip, so I’m probably going to read his book. Here’s a summary.

General Michael Flynn: "D'oh!"

I’m not going to try to write it all, I’ll just give you the links. I suggest you read them all:

BREAKING: Grand jury subpoenas have been issued related to June 2016 meeting between Donald Trump Jr., Russian lawyers and others – sources

APNewsBreak: Flynn details tie to data firm, transition pay (that’s Robert Mercer’s Cambridge Analytica)

Ryan Goodman‏//Buried many paras deep in CNN story is this bombshell —
Possible evidence of Manafort at heart of collusion with Russia

Wall Street Journal‏: The New York property development business owned by Jared Kushner’s family has been subpoenaed

Haaretz.com‏// Bombshell: Israel Police confirm Benjamin Netanyahu suspected of bribery, fraud, breach of trust in 2 separate cases

I included this because of persistent rumors Bibi is linked somehow to the Russian money laundering. Who knows?

So there’s more than one grand jury in Virginia with one looking into Flynn, the one in DC looking into Trump, and at least one in NY state. FYI: Charges won’t include wiretap evidence or anything else that will disclose methods.

Getting some momentum now…

Comey: Trump asked me to drop Flynn investigation

Kontroversi di Washington Meningkat Pasca Pemecatan Comey

James Comey is famous for leaving a paper trail, and this is really a bombshell:

WASHINGTON — President Trump asked the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, to shut down the federal investigation into Mr. Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, in an Oval Office meeting in February, according to a memo that Mr. Comey wrote shortly after the meeting.

“I hope you can let this go,” the president told Mr. Comey, according to the memo.

The existence of Mr. Trump’s request is the clearest evidence that the president has tried to directly influence the Justice Department and F.B.I. investigation into links between Mr. Trump’s associates and Russia.

Mr. Comey wrote the memo detailing his conversation with the president immediately after the meeting, which took place the day after Mr. Flynn resigned, according to two people who read the memo. The memo was part of a paper trail Mr. Comey created documenting what he perceived as the president’s improper efforts to influence an ongoing investigation. An F.B.I. agent’s contemporaneous notes are widely held up in court as credible evidence of conversations.

Mr. Comey shared the existence of the memo with senior F.B.I. officials and close associates. The New York Times has not viewed a copy of the memo, which is unclassified, but one of Mr. Comey’s associates read parts of the memo to a Times reporter.

Why are people always making up lies about Donald Trump?
