Do you not understand that if Trump committed a crime, Comey didn't report or investigate which is also Obstruction and makes him accountable for Trumps alleged Obstruction? Whereby, Comey could not be compelled to testify about it because of the 5th amendment. He would have to be given immunity which then would make his testimony less than credible. Furthermore, Comey would have committed Official Misconduct. He would then likely lose his pension and benefits. Beyond that, it's a good story.
Again, very interested in a reply here, too, because this argument fascinates me. Are you suggesting that Comey was not investigating after Trump's alleged comment to him?
Comey under the U.S. code had a duty to immediately report it if he felt it was a crime. Inaction makes him culpable as well. His May 3 testimony under oath states that no one had tried to influence him on the investigation which would also open him up for perjury. This is a big fat nothing if self preservation is an instinct Comey possesses.
It is equally interesting to note that suddenly Pelosi and some of the top Dems. have gotten off the impeachment bandwagon. The special counsel situation is a double edge sword. Being tasked to look into the Russian influence reopens the DNC email and Hillary server mess. Which leads us back to Podesta's relation with Russian banks and Bill's meeting with Loretta Lynch. Questions of why did the DNC refuse the FBI to examine their servers and was Seth Rich really the leaker as Assange has drawn attention to? This may be a situation of careful what you wish for.
You forget Comey didn't allege anything yet. Others have said there were notes. Culpability for what. Are you assuming Trump is guilty.
No, that assumption is made by the title of the thread. :roll:
