We don't know that. We don't know what role the grand jury has played in this. All we know is that one has been involved in some way at some point. But we already knew McCabe had been referred to prosecutors, and this doesn't seem to add any information to that as far as I can tell. What in...

I enjoyed reading this well written article from the New York Times. It describes the historically changed relationship between the Presidency and the Federal Bureau of Investigations. It is also as much about other Presidents who have butted up against the FBI as it is about Donald Trump...

This is going to be interesting. http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/10/politics/sessions-senate-testimony/index.html (and I've been waiting for the opportunity to use that thread title!) :)

James Comey will be publicly testifying in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee tomorrow at 10am Eastern. It will be televised live on the major networks, cable news, and online. A written statement to the committee from Comey has already been posted online. It is recollections of...

According to recent reports Comey was asked in a private meeting to back off the investigation of Michael Flynn and yesterday during a press conference Trump was asked if he did and Trump gave a definitive no.

White House announces firing of Comey. Details to follow.

FBI Director James Comey's testimony before the House Intelligence Committee, which pretty much said that the Don was living in lala land about the phone tapping and that they were investigating his election and campaign for Russian influence, how long do you think Comey has got left in the job?

Comey just sent yet another letter to congress, stating: “During that process, we reviewed all of the communications that were to or from Hillary Clinton while she was Secretary of State,” Comey wrote. “Based on our review, we have not changed our conclusions that we expressed in July with...

Best explanation I've seen so far for what we're seeing says that both the Pentagon and the FBI are close to open rebellion and that Comey's hand is being forced: https://www.lewrockwell.com/political-theatre/hillary-arrested-2/ Some of the letters Comey has been getting from former agents are...

The previous thread was getting long and generating duplicate posts, so I have opened this shiny new continuation thread. As usual, the split point was arbitrary and participants are free to respond to points made in previous iterations of the thread. That seems sensible. And you're not...

FBI directory James Comey to speak at 11:00 EDT today (July 5). If this is the end of the investigation, ie no charges will be recommended, it seems like one thread to discuss the outcome would be useful. I predict he will be announcing no charges recommended.

Continued from here. So if the media tells you something you don't want to hear, it's press bias? The recent media criticism of Clinton is based on the announced conclusions of an investigation by the State Department Inspector General. Is he biased too? If there was a security problem at...

Two items on CNN today, one new, one old. The old one is that according to the former Deputy Attorney General, James Comey the White House sent people (one of whom was Alberto Gonzales) to visit John Ashcroft while he was in the hospital gravely ill, asking him to sign off on wiretappings...
