Another coordinated set up to hurt POTUS the day after the debate.
Yes, I can say that much for them they got a plan. The slam dunk by Sullivan yesterday, last nite their utter disregard for the office of the President and to start the day we have Comey’s testimony.
I just hope they don’t inconvenience this poor guy too long. He has a book tour that needs tending to.
Oh, this isn’t part of it?
Yeah for Comedy’s new book called “Tall Tales”.
WordPress autocorrect to Comedy for Comey. Trying to tell us something?
The smug will be thick enough to cut with a knife.
I can’t stomach this guy – not for a minute. Thank you courageous souls for watching.
Just a little chat like they did with Gen. Flynn…
Talking about Lindsey Graham? I know. I’m with you.
Under oath???
Almost certainly. But it doesn’t matter. First, false statement offense 18 USC 1001 does not require taking on an oath, and there is no difference in penalty between false statments and 18 USC 1621 perjury.
Second, Comey and most government officilas are skilled at phrasing answers in clinically true but misleading ways.
Finally, even if he blatanly lies, he would not be charged. He’s in the protected class, unlike Roger Stone.
The point of the hearing is to fool the public into a sense that its government has integrity.
Did they put him under oath? If not yes he is lying ! If yes yes he is lying! Being a banana republic with a two tier Justice system Comey knows he’s in the top tier and won’t be prosecuted for lying to Congress! Only Republicans get charged with lying to Congress!
Retired Magistrate here: I don’t know how President Trump keeps going with all the daggers thrown at him; however, he does. He gets up, sees the day as a brand new one, and goes about the business of helping the American people and making American Great Again.
Please pray for President Trump for courage, wisdom, strength and protection. He needs our support now more than ever.
Comey and the gang may never see justice in this life; however, GOD who is the ultimate Judge will deliver justice in HIS own time.
Marcia- LOVE^^^^^
I would say when PDJT entered the business world, the daggers were fast sharp and plenty. I believe over time his skin became like titanium.
But from his actions as president, I think he found business people to be far more true to their words. He seemed to have been surprised by the total lack of morals in politicians, but he is a quick learner.
I am not a very religious person but I 100% respect those who are ardent believers in it and the hereafter.
However, as far as Comey is concerned, I would rather have a jury of twelve decide his fate while he’s still alive rather than waiting for a deity to deliver justice later.
Graham will be the Chris Wallace of this hearing.
Graham will behave. His prospects for reelection are not as rosy as they should be. He needs a command performance today, and at the Barrett hearings next month.
So he’ll go full Trey Gowdy. Got it.
Flimsy will do alright, unless he’s been paid off to “take a dive,” for the Deep State! Then, he will soft pedal Comey and cover his lies and distortions!
Grahm’s mission is to cabin the “bad boys” to the FBI and DOJ, allowing Congress, foreign government, and other players in the coup to walk away as if they were passive, innocent bystanders.
Fact of the matter is, none of the Russian Coup show would have happened unless Congress demanded it. Graham personally and vigorously defended use of Special Counsel power while it was harrassing POTUS and destroying people in his orbit.
A+
Be interesting to see what hay if any Graham makes of the letter he got from Ratcliffe yesterday.
Don’t forget John McCain. He and Hillary were close and he worked with her to pull this off. (jmo)
Ya miss Lindsay is in charge so not expecting much. Is it under oath?
Here’s what I expect to hear from James Comey:
“I don’t recall”
“I’ll have to get back to you on that”
“I can’t remember that”
“That’s not how I remember it”
“No reasonable prosecutor would treat me like this”
Trump’s tweets have weaponized this political investigation to discredit the finest people on earth. They are the first responders putting their life on the line to protect the American people. They are selfless public servants who have been maligned. And you can ask them how fondly they feel about me.
“….Finest People on Earth. They are the first responders putting their life on the line to protect the American People.”
Citizens are responsible for their own Safety.
They are no better or worse than any other Hard Working American Citizen working a Hazardous Job. There are Many.
Does your worship service end before Lunch?
My comment is sarcasm or meme of what I expect Comey will spout some time today.
I figured that it was sarcasm or that you’re Evan McMullen.
Ya I caught that. My reflex was engaged for a moment there though!
Good, I’ll cancel the order I placed on Hero Capes. : )
You puzzled some readers, this one included.
Please be joking.
“The finest people on earth”?
Please clarify. Surely you’re not suggesting that Comey, Strzok, et al are anything but totally corrupt ideologues.
“It’s not in my purview.”
That is reserved for Mueller alone.
Yup. That one, too. Thanks… I KNEW I left something out.
Here’s what you will hear from Comey and the rest, straight from a DNC propaganda outlet.

Mark Warner…the pond scum/wing-man of gov’t leakers.
Well, I missed Comey Testilying today. Was I close?
Nailed it!
I was busy today, so I missed it. Should I bother to watch a video of it after the fact?
Andy McCarthy predicted last night that since Comey is a master of evasiveness and manipulativeness during testimony, he will do very well today, giving the senators nothing.
But perhaps the GOP senators have foreseen this problem and a plan.
Comey and the Senate partially share a mission here. That is to limit the number of people fingered for “acting badly.”
The Hannity act – 99% of them are greeat, and with training and better systems, a tweak in law, this sort of thing won’t ever happen again.
GOP Senators have a plan??
Hi, you must be new, here!!
Given that Sundance has made it clear many times that the Senate is entirely corrupt, the GOP in the Senate’s plan is probably to maintain protection for the Deep State while trying to make the public think they’re on their side.
Their plan haha is to keep the honey pot all to themselves by keeping us guessing and wondering and hoping.
My confidence in the senate repubs is low, but then even a blind squirrel can find a nut once in awhile. Ill hope its this time.
Grahamnesty and crew…Ms. Lindsey will blow this too, since he is neck deep in the rolling coup…
Limpsey blowing something? Now that’s a bombshell.
No doubt he will be asked about emails.
A reminder of who is on the committee:
https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/about/members
I think there are enough bulldogs on our side to rip Comey to pieces.
As one of my very favorite people says, “We’ll see what happens.”
Last night POTUS said, (paraphrased);’ We caught them all ,,,,, It’s on TAPE!’
I thought I heard it wrong but noticed again last night during the Ingraham Show’s debate review….
The idea that this whole coup set-up is on “tape” and POTUS said those words; indicates much to me.
POTUS Does NOT Lie! That I can tell you.
Clearly POTUS is sending a message to US!
He has a rally tonight; should be interesting.
Yes, President Trump did say it’s on “tape”.
Keep Comey talking, he’ll be more apt to say something, that may be used against him, post election, when CIA Agent Barr is fired and a Actual AG is in place.
If we ever arrive at that Planet.
Is your screen name related to the Marshall amp?
Who’s gonna use it against him, inquiring minds would like to know
What are the odd’s if Graham mentions these great agents knew they were doing wrong and too out insurance policies ,.That sounds like guilty pleas to me , instead of coming forward like the great agents we keep hearing about , they take out insurance . How often does this happen Mr Comey ??How many agents sole job was to get Hillary elected ??? So Tax Payers paid out an average of 175 thousand a year to agents trying to remove a duly elected President ., I will vote to defund the DOJ , you lost our trust for the 47th time since you murdered people in 1933 agents opened fire killing innocent people at Little Bohimia lodge and allowed Dillinger to escape
The Senate should have Bogeyfree asking questions…
I would like to see a public shellacking during the interview, put on a plane for Gitmo with the outlook of extensive water boarding to see if his memory can be shaken.” I can’t recall” is an old Hillary trick. What does Graham expect out of this ? We want to see Comey visibly shaken like a DIRTY Martini. If Graham plays softball with this hoodlum, it will show us that he is really a black hat and protecting the cabal. Forgive me for loosing faith in the system.
Obi-Wan Kenobi Sundance you’re our only hope!
Hearing is on C-SPAN3 too. Graham has a chart showing “17 mistakes” referring to Carter Page FISA applications and Horowitz report.
Grassley is in the room.
Masks on everybody — LOL. I’m sick and tired of these people and their kabuki.
I really don’t want to spend my day looking at Weasel-Face Dog Comey, or hear his sanctimonious b.s., but my teacher promised extra credit.
Yeh after last night I am simply going to follow comments here. I keep wanting to crawl into my screen and grab these bastards by the neck and wring it! My BP cannot handle to much more this election cycle!
Like the “debate” last night, I won’t be able to watch since I’m in a travel trailer by a lake with sketchy AT&T service, so I look forward to my fellow treepers analysis.
I’de be fishing!
I should be somewhere fishing
Jus Wundrin – You missed nothing last night and you’ll miss nothing today. Your choice to read here is far better and more worthwhile.
Wondering if I am going to regret watching this hearing. Feel like Charlie Brown vs Lucy and the football.
Graham misses a key matter of law. Surveillance for counterintelligence does not depend on FISA, and also does not require a warrant. See “the Keith case” from the 1970’s.
Graham speaks as though this sort of surveillance depends on Congressional authorization. It does not.
No matter. FISA will be renewed and adjusted so that bad actors have more places to hide malfeasance.
FISA was sold as curtailing or controlling surveillance, but it has the opposite effect. it also gives statutory defense for what is otherwise felony snooping. In other words, the criminal penalities in the law are a complete sham.
It is a make-work boondoggle. I bet hundreds of people make a living off this boondoggle.
Are we going to get the mandatory ,” thank you for your years of dedicated service”, from the Democrats?
Unless Ms Lindsey and this committee addresses NSA data abuses by FBI contractors, this will be just another lost opportunity.
Senate will bury as much as it can, and a little more.
Graham is putting on the outraged act, using Clinesmith as the McGuffin.
Comey says “I know nothing.”
Graham’s point that FISA warrant is obtained in an ex parte setting is a red herring. ALL warrants are obtained in ex parte setting. The government asks the judge for a warrant, nobody other than the government is advocating to the judge.
Hearings are not the place to do “deep dive” investigations. Graham is a joke. Investigation takes time. Presentation of findings is the shortest part.
Graham enters a letter into the record from the unnamed lawyer who prepared the Carter Page application, that he/she would not have signed, had he/she known.
Feinstein uses Horowitz report to say the investigation into Russian collusion with the Trump campaign was appropriate. Mueller confirmed. And Russia would benefit from a Trump presidency. The usual talking points, rehashed yet again. She refers to SSCI findings. What a nest of corruption we have for a government. A model, a beacon for banana republics all over the world.
“It was my great honor to fire James Comey”
– President Donald J Trump
Feinstein lying through her dentures.
It’s so disturbing these lies have persisted for so many years listening to Feinstein. Four years and the lies persist as the Senators keep covering up their own treason. And to this day, other than CTH, I have heard NOTHING about the Senate’s role in pushing for the Special Counsel. Feinstein makes several misrepresentations on the IG report and is still pushing the hack. How come the hack has yet to be discredited widely? Grrrrr…now Comey’s up.
Senate pushing for SC was open news in March 2017. They’d been pushing for this for weeks when Comey testified in the House on March 20, 2017 and disclosed the existence of a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign and its connections to Russia.
Thx – when did the first public sign of the Senate SSCI push begin? Did that start with McCain? How did the rest of the SSCI get in on it? Was Burr the only R? Were all lof the R’s on the SSCI in on it? I guess I still don’t know the who and what drivers led up to the point when someone/group made a decision to request the CP FISA and for what purpose…if the purpose was to leak to the press, was it solely to generate the drumbeat of the push for a SC or were there other reasons to leak? Or was that Wolfe’s decision alone? I am clear on everything after that…
First up, the wicked witch of Endor!
Chi-spy-di regurgitating old debunked Russia nonsense….
Comey counting to ten…
Our tax dollars at work.
I think I’all spare myself…
Feinstein has already stated various lies. Emails were not ‘hacked’ by Russia, and the Trump campaign did not have prior knowledge of the Russians possessing these emails. Assange confirmed the emails WikiLeaks had were not from any Russian state actors.
Feinstein cited the SSCI for the finding that Russians hacked DNC and preferred Trump. I don;t believe the SSCI report has any dissenting opinion section. To the senate, this finding is carved in stone fact, reality be damned.
It’s simple. If this leads to nothing, there’s no point in watching these anymore.
These Senate hearings are a complete travesty. They all should just go home, or just go away period. If I never see another Senator’s face again will do me good.
I have never been more sick of anything than I’m now with government. The only reason I’m trying to stay connected is because of Trump.
So Comey was basically on vacation and not paying attention when all this went down, lol.
And, Comey sets the tone for his testimony. Play dumb. It’s a good thing he is dumb, so that his acting won’t be too difficult.
Yes Justin G.
And Comey’s dead pan face is very odd. He seems to be on something.
I get a really bad smell when listening to Lindsey questioning Comey, who sits in front of two triangular objects containing American flags, dressed as an honest man resting at home with makeup that makes him look like a saint.
This stinks to high heaven! Perhaps Lindsey is no friend of our President, a Brutus so to speak.
Why was scumbag Comey allowed to testify from the comfort of his home? This was Graham’s first mistake. Was Comey sworn in? I missed the first part.
Comey knew nothing. I believe him, thousands wouldn’t.
Yes, he was sworn in, but really, does it even matter?
They lie with impunity.
WHO did Strzok mean when he said the 7th floor reopened the Flynn case in Jan 2017?
Didn’t Carter Page actually write to Comey, before the 1st FISA warrant was obtained, telling Comey that he worked for the CIA? If so, how can Comey pretend that he does not know about Carter Page was a CIA asset.
YES.HE.DID.
And he begged for help with the death threats he was receiving because of them and their fake news about him.
No way can I watch this. Like all the other crap, it won’t matter.
All that matters is that POTUS wins the election and that Durham/Barr get the bastards.
Seeing Jill Biden this morning on tv speaking outside to a non-existent crowd which the cameramen would not show, knowing old Joe and she are going on a train ride through Ohio and PA….it all makes me want to vomit.
What an arrogant prick.
Seneca we call people like Comey “kuronja” same as what you said only a tad more disgusting.
Treepers, at the beginning when Graham asked, did Comey respond that he wasn’t aware of the dossier until Dec 2016? But then Comey answered Graham’s questions about actions about the dossier which occurred before December 2016 (contradicting Comey only knowing about the dossier in Dec 2016).
Did I hear this correctly?
Before I had to go and projectile hurl at the sight and sound of Saint Comey, I believe he said he learned of the Steele Dossier in Sept. of ’16.
Comey seems nervous.
Comey seems to have some recall issues. Maybe he needs to take something for it?
“Criminally inadequate” — there is no such thing.
What happened was abuse of legal process. This rarely reaches a level of criminality. Our government chronically abuses its power. The only remedy for this is to change people, and even then, “power corrupts,” so I would not expcet changing out people changes anything.
Improvidently granted warrants are common.
This hearing is designed to be “the shiney object” to distract from the bigger picture.
Dog, meet Pony…PLEASE Lindsey, prove me wrong!
Testimony…
I don’t know
I can’t recall
I said that?
It wasn’t me
The sensitivity of the matter
Who?
I don’t know
I wasn’t aware
Me?
I can’t recall
I never saw it
I have no idea
The need to strike a sensitive balance
I wasn’t there
Not recalling that
I didn’t do it
Outside of my pay scale
I don’t know
I can’t recall
I hope my testimony has been helpful
You left off my favorite non-answer, answer: “I don’t agree with the premise of your question.”
Hi Niagara ,
Yes I caught that strange answer ! I don’t agree with your question so I will not answer your question… I wrote it down for a friend in case they ever need it. lol
Does Comey remember being AT the FBI ever?
Based on that predicate, he doesn’t even recall what he had for breakfast!
Hillary Clinton walks ‘free as a bird’ because she DOES NOT RECALL.
James Comey also DOES NOT RECALL (remember).
See a pattern?
This hearing will accomplish absolutely nothing, and is a waste of everyone’s time.
The Democrats have mastered Kabuki Theater.
Meanwhile, the Republicans continue to puff up their chests — flap their wings — and lay eggs.
LIAR! The Russians did not hack not the DNC server! EVERYONE DID!
It was the Russians that hacked the DNC according to Graham. What a sham this hearing is.
Lindsey is not there to question who hacked the DNC, which tells you all you need to know.
/It was the Russians that hacked the DNC according to Graham/
Even the Trump hating Progressives (those who still have a brain) have figured this out, but it appears Graham is just a little less obtuse than Comey:
Ray McGovern – Russia-gate: Can You Handle the Truth?
One of the best videos I have seen on this, especially as it comes from the other side. And is the reason Glen Greenwald no longer gets booked on MSNBC.
Well, Lindsey gets an “F”…. Now Di-Fi will go all Manafort on us… What a farce.
