Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    I've admittedly been vacating, so may have missed this. What happens if the McCabe-Comey "discrepancy" (which may well be minor, but wouldn't be treated as such by FBI Agents investigating your or me) comes down on McCabe's side during Comeyganza?

        Jeff Sessions had bigger discrepancies with his own testimony. This didn’t seem like a discrepancy at all 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ One person recalling with greater clarity perhaps but geez that happens in my house multiple times a day between hubby and I. 😳

        Again, it may or may not be -- we don't really know yet. But the agency Comey and McCabe used to run have cut others, particularly brown people, far less slack.

        I hear you. I know the standards are high but this seems like a way to justify the firing and to do it in the fashion it was done was spiteful. Our President blatantly lies and misleads the country daily without being held to the same high standard 🤷‍♀️

        The IG reportedly backed the firing. He's not Trump. Far from it. It is simultaneously possible that Trump abuses his power and that FBI has developed a well-documented habit of being less forthcoming than it needs to be.

        That being said, I do appreciate that you always make me think in a less linear way and re~evaluate my biases.

        Mid-April, his book comes out. I heard in one place (forgot where), ppl are paying $850 to hear him. He's tall, so you'll probably see his head. But I'd save the $850, let Twitter screen post the book for you, and donate a few bucks to a sharp analyst like @emptywheel instead.

        Sliding into your mentions to say, Comeyganza is an awesome term.

        Was a bit worried it might count as some kind of potty mouth, tbh. I'll just deem it a technical term.

        insunlite Retweeted Donald J. Trump

        IG has found improprieties and McCabe isnt “going down alone”. Trump seems to think the “discrepancy” will most definitely work against Comey.https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/974859881827258369?s=21 …

        insunlite added,

        Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump
        Andrew McCabe FIRED, a great day for the hard working men and women of the FBI - A great day for Democracy. Sanctimonious James Comey was his boss and made McCabe look like a choirboy. He knew all about the lies and corruption going on at the highest levels of the FBI!
