Yeah yeah yeah The finest newspaper in the world is a DNC propaganda outlet The bottom line is not only is trump a damn liar about the firing he was a complete pos about the way he achieved itIt's called political interference Uncensored
WASHINGTON â President Trump on Tuesday fired the director of the F.B.I., James B. Comey, abruptly terminating the top official leading a criminal investigation into whether Mr. Trumpâs advisers colluded with the Russian government to steer the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
The stunning development in Mr. Trumpâs presidency raised the specter of political interference by a sitting president into an existing investigation by the nationâs leading law enforcement agency. It immediately ignited Democratic calls for a special counsel to lead the Russia inquiry.
Mr. Trump explained the firing by citing Mr. Comeyâs handling of the investigation into Hillary Clintonâs use of a private email server, even though the president was widely seen to have benefited politically from that inquiry and had once praised Mr. Comey for his âgutsâ in his pursuit of Mrs. Clinton during the campaign.
But in his letter to Mr. Comey, released to reporters by the White House, the president betrayed his focus on the continuing inquiry into Russia and his aides.

âWhile I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the judgment of the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the bureau,â Mr. Trump said in a letter to Mr. Comey dated Tuesday. White House officials refused to say anything more about the three occasions Mr. Trump cited.
Document: White House Announces Firing of James Comey
The officials said that Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, pushed for Mr. Comeyâs dismissal. But many in Washington, including veteran F.B.I. officers, saw a carefully choreographed effort by the president to create a pretense for a takedown of the presidentâs F.B.I. tormentor.
âI cannot defend the directorâs handling of the conclusion of the investigation of Secretary Clintonâs emails,â Mr. Rosenstein wrote in another letter that was released by the White House, âand I do not understand his refusal to accept the nearly universal judgment that he was mistaken.â
Reaction in Washington was swift and fierce. Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Democratic leader, said the firing could make Americans suspect a cover-up. Mr. Trump lashed back later Tuesday night in a Twitter post: âCryinâ Chuck Schumer stated recently, âI do not have confidence in him (James Comey) any longer.â Then acts so indignant.â
Many Republicans assailed the president for making a rash decision that could have deep implications for their party. Representative Justin Amash, Republican of Michigan, said on Twitter that he now supports an independent commission to investigate the Russia links to Mr. Trump. He called Mr. Trumpâs claim that Mr. Comey had cleared him three times âbizarre.â
âIâve spent the last several hours trying to find an acceptable rationale for the timing of Comeyâs firing,â Senator Jeff Flake, Republican of Arizona, said on Twitter. âI just canât do it.â
In a sign of the F.B.I.âs intense interest in Mr. Trumpâs advisers, a grand jury in Virginia issued subpoenas in recent weeks for records related to the former White House national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, according to an American official familiar with the case. Mr. Flynn is under investigation for his financial ties to Russia and Turkey. Grand jury subpoenas are a routine part of federal investigations and are not a sign that charges are imminent. It was not clear that the subpoenas, which were first reported by CNN, were related to Mr. Comeyâs firing.

Yews, the NY Times is simply part of the DNC, a propaganda outlet that perverts information and openly lies to promote the fascist democratic party and to slander and libel the enemies of the party.
Thank you of the example of just how utterly corrupt the leftist press is.
While the Times demagogues the reality is that the witch hunt long ago failed. There never was shred of evidence to support the leftist attacks. Comey was a bureaucrat, his removal has no impact on any alleged "investigations." If there were ever any legitimate elements, such efforts would continue without Comey.
So republicans, WHY was it justified for Trump to fire Comey?

Amazing how citizens can read the minds of those in power. Is that a skill that develops over time, are you born with it, do can you get it from a T-35 foil helmet, the one with wings?
Trump has been a liar, a user all his life Why should he be different now? You don't need a helmet to know that he only lies when his lips move And repubs suck it up
A politician lying? Will wonders never cease!
Yes but every day every week???? Don't you have a limit as to how much trump BS you can take?

Watergate Redux or âDeep Stateâ Coup?

Watergate Redux or 'Deep State' Coup?
Exclusive: Official Washington is abuzz, comparing President Trumpâs ouster of FBI Director Comey to President Nixonâs Watergate cover-up, but there is a darker âdeep stateâ interpretation of these events, says Robert Parry.
By Robert Parry
President Trumpâs firing of FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday reflected a growing concern inside the White House that the long-rumored scheme by âdeep stateâ operatives to overturn the results of the 2016 election may have been more than just rumors.

The fear grew that Comey and other senior officials in the U.S. intelligence community had concluded last year that neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump was a suitable future president, albeit for different reasons. Iâm told that Clinton was seen as dangerously hawkish and Trump as dangerously unqualified, opinions privately shared by then-President Barack Obama.
So, according to this account, plans were made last summer to damage both Clinton and Trump, with the hope of putting a more stable and less risky person in the Oval Office â with key roles in this scheme played by Comey, CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.
When I first heard about this supposed cabal in the middle of last year, I dismissed it as something more fitting a Jason Bourne movie than the real world. But â to my amazement â the U.S. intelligence community then began intervening in the presidential campaign in unprecedented ways.
On July 5, 2016, Director Comey dealt a severe blow to Clinton by holding a press conference to denounce her use of a private email server while Secretary of State as âextremely careless,â yet he announced that no legal action would follow, opening her to a damaging line of attack that she jeopardized national security but that her political status gave her special protection. . .

Everything the snowflakes are throwing up is smoke, mirrors, false accusations, denial, etc...
Comey testified under oath before Congress that Hillary Clinton broke Laws and he protected her from indictment and prosecution. That is all the justification anyone needed to fire Comey.

The only problem with this entire article is ...everything in the article. The insinuation is still being made that there was ever any 'collusion'.
The NSA and FBI have already testified there was NEVER any crime or collusion. The FBI has said it 3 times not. Obama's National Intel Director, Obama's ex-advisor, The Intel Committee Chairman, Committee member D-Feinstein - all have publicly declared there is no evidence to support the false claim against Trump....
Yet pathetic, desperate snowflakes are pulling out stories of Nixon and Watergate, that have no semblance of bearing on what's going on now. The only aspect of Watergate that comes close to what is going on now is how Hillary knowingly filed a false report when she was working on Watergate that was intended to argue to deny Nixon of his legal council. (Funny Democrats would bring up Watergate, another 'black mark' for Hillary.

No it didn't, there was no insinuation at all. That was the whole point.
Quoted from the article;
"So, going into the Inauguration, Russia-gate was dominating the front pages of newspapers as well as the endless chat shows on cable TV despite the fact that no real evidence was presented proving Russia was responsible for the WikiLeaksâ posts â and WikiLeaks denied getting the material from Russia. There was also no evidence that Trumpâs campaign had colluded with the Russians in this endeavor.
But those suspicions quickly hardened into a groupthink among many Democrats, liberals and progressives. Their hatred of Trump and their dread about his policies convinced some that the ends of removing Trump justified whatever means were employed, even if those means had more than a whiff of McCarthyism."
What the article is telling you, is that the DeepState and Obama have their own agenda.

Whether true or not, utterly irrelevant.
The NY Times prints what serves the fascist democratic party. Whether what they print happens to be true, false, or skewed is not considered. The ONLY metric the Times uses is whether a story promotes the party agenda, or smears the enemies of the party.
The NY Times is DNC propaganda that is factually less accurate than the National Enquirer.(FACT)
{
- In 1987, The Enquirer broke a story about Democrat candidate Gary Hart having an affair with a member of his staff, Ms. Donna Rice. Initially, Hart denied it completely, and his fans kept telling us you can't believe anything the Enquirer prints, because "they make stuff up." It turned out the story was absolutely true, and Hart had to drop out of the race.
- In 1998, The Enquirer broke a story about President Bill Clinton having an affair with a White House Intern, Monica Lewinsky. Clinton vehemently denied this, and his fans told us we cannot believe anything the Enquirer prints, because they always "make stuff up." It turned out that the story was absolutely true.
- In 2001, The Enquirer broke a story about Jesse Jackson fathering an illegitimate daughter with staffer Karin Stanford in 1999. It turned out that the story was absolutely true, and Jackson came clean as the issue hit the newsstands.
- In 2003, The Enquirer ran a story in which conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh's housekeeper provided Limbaugh with a steady stream of OxyContin to feed his painkiller addiction. Although some media outlets turned up their noses at the Enquirer's scoop because the paper had paid housekeeper Wilma Cline for her story, law enforcement quickly confirmed that Limbaugh had purchased some 30,000 pills from Cline. Once again, the story was absolutely true.
- In 2007, The Enquirer began a series of reports alleging an adulterous affair between Edwards and former campaign worker Rielle Hunter. Edwards initially denied this completely, and his fans told us "The Enquirer made it up" because "everyone knows they never report real facts. It turns out the story was absolutely true.}
