And what is wrong with Trump telling Comey to drop the Flynn investigation?

[ShootSpeeders]

There are only so many hours in the day and the FBI can't investigate every allegation, so if Trump did in fact tell comey to drop the flynn investigation, what of it.? The FBI is an executive agency and Trump is their boss and it's trump's call which accusations are worthy of pursuit.

That's like asking what's wrong with Lucky Luciano telling the IRS to drop their investigation into Al Capone.

No. It's not his call.

The recorded conversation which finished off Nixon:

Haldeman: Now, on the investigation, you know, the Democratic break-in thing, we're back to the-in the, the problem area because the FBI is not under control, because Gray doesn't exactly know how to control them, and they have, their investigation is now leading into some productive areas, because they've been able to trace the money, not through the money itself, but through the bank, you know, sources - the banker himself. And, and it goes in some directions we don't want it to go. Ah, also there have been some things, like an informant came in off the street to the FBI in Miami, who was a photographer or has a friend who is a photographer who developed some films through this guy, Barker, and the films had pictures of Democratic National Committee letter head documents and things. So I guess, so it's things like that that are gonna, that are filtering in. Mitchell came up with yesterday, and John Dean analyzed very carefully last night and concludes, concurs now with Mitchell's recommendation that the only way to solve this, and we're set up beautifully to do it, ah, in that and that the only network that paid any attention to it last night was NBC-they did a massive story on the Cuban-

Nixon: That's right.

Haldeman: thing.

Nixon: Right.

Haldeman: That the way to handle this now is for us to have Walters call Pat Gray and just say, Stay the hell out of this -this this ah, business here we don't want you to go any further on it. That's not an unusual development,

Nixon: Um huh.

Haldeman: and, uh, that would take care of it.

Nixon: What about Pat Gray, ah, you mean he doesn't want to?

Haldeman: Pat does want to. He doesn't know how to, and he doesn't have, he doesn't have any basis for doing it. Given this, he will then have the basis. He'll call Mark Felt in, and the two of them and Mark Felt wants to cooperate because-

Nixon: Yeah.

Haldeman: he's ambitious-

Nixon: Yeah.

Haldeman: Ah, he'll call him in and say, We've got the signal from across the river to, to put the hold on this. And that will fit rather well because the FBI agents who are working the case, at this point, feel that's what it is.

Is there, like, a lead paint well on your property?

It is obstruction of justice and that is illegal.

What the fuck do you think a swamp IS?

If that is not highly unethical those words have no meaning.

Comey testified on May 3rd that he was never asked to drop an investigation....so he was either lying when under oath or he is lying now........besides, as far as I know? Russia is no enemy of mine and Flynn didn't sign off on a uranium sell in exchange for a hefty donation to a slush fund cleverly disguised as a "charitable foundation"....that would have been Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and I am sure that the Barrypuppet got a piece of that action as well..........D.C is nothing but a huge trough where the pigs feed. Corrupt and compromised agents of USA.INC that steal, rape, pillage and plunder due to the sweat equity of their serfs.....

No it isn't. Comey works for trump and trump can tell him what to do. You want OOJ look at all these sanctuary cities that tell their cops to defy orders from ICE.

It's called OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE--meaning no--one including the President can interfere into an ongoing investigation. A President can order an investigation into something serious like Obama did in his final days (the Russian investigation)--but he can't take one off the books.

Michael Flynn targeted by grand jury subpoenas, sources confirm

You have not elected a dictator or king. There are 3 branches of government--the Executive, the Judicial, and the Legislative branch. They all have their own authority over certain issues that the President CANNOT override.

By using that example, it would be safe to assume that you think that sanctuary cities are completely in their right to defy ICE.

Thanks for clarifying. I will monitor for hypocrisy.

Someone should let Trump know.

There is nothing wrong with the President expressing his opinion that Comey should drop the investigation of Flynn, but since the investigation of Flynn was generating negative PR for his administration, it would be unwise for him to tell Comey he must drop it.

Obstructing justice. Someone who was innocent and concerned about "how many hours are in a day" should comply and get the investigation out of the way.

Trump is not innocent, and can't let the investigation get too far.

He hears "lock him up" playing in his mind.
