    Where are JimL and Starlight? They must have something to say about this.
    Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

        I am proud of our resident liberals who came out so quickly to apologize, and admit they were wrong on this.

        Oh, wait . . . . .

          Will CNN admit that their "anonymous sources" were full of hooey?

            What is it with you and saying this? I only read about 2/3rds of the civics threads, but in a couple of threads I hadn't read cos their subjects didn't interest me, I was scrolling through them cos I was bored, and I see you posting this. Not sure what your point is, if you have one.

              Quite possibly, but you don't need them so much.

                Prediction:

                Tassy and/or JimL will declare that this only proves that Trump was not under investigation BEFORE but now he is, according to anonymous sources.

                  I think it was Tassy who laughly claimed that the "not under investigation" was only with regards to the infamous dossier and that Trump is still on the hook for everything else.

                    apparently JimL is now saying that CNN never said that Trump was under investigation, that was fake news to say they did. And the narrative is shifting to "obstruction of justice" because Trump tried to get Comey to drop the investigation into Flynn.

                      I had a friend being investigated for a crime.
                      I was talking to the prosecutor and I told him it was nonsense and that he should drop the investigation.

                      Apparently, I have a history of obstructing justice.
                      Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

                        Even that's not a slam dunk, because Trump never explicitly asked that the investigation be dropped. Comey, by his own admission, didn't fully understand Trump's meaning and made certain assumptions without asking for clarification.

                        There's a reason Trump's lawyers are doing a victory lap this morning.

                        "The President is pleased that Mr. Comey has finally publicly confirmed his private reports that the President was not under investigation in any Russian probe. The president feels completely and totally vindicated. He is eager to move forward with his agenda."

                          Marco Rubio makes an interesting observation during the hearing:

                          Source: Breitbart

                          During Comey’s back and forth with Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), the former 2016 Trump GOP primary rival astutely noted that basically the only thing that did not leak to the press is the one fact that would have helped Trump–that Trump himself was not under investigation. That is despite the fact that Congressional leaders were briefed on that point.

                          A couple other highlights from today's festivities:

                          Source: Breitbart

                          Comey just killed the case against Trump over “obstruction of justice” that the media is building, as fast as they began building it. He said Trump saying he hopes Comey lets the investigation of Flynn go was not an order to drop the investigation.

                          ...

                          Since Comey believes that no votes were altered in the 2016 presidential election–he testified he is “confident” none were–then what is the point of this hearing?

                            And this looks bad for Loretta Lynch:

                            For the first time, former FBI Director James Comey, who is testifying today before the Senate Intelligence Committee, said that President Obama's Attorney General Loretta Lynch asked him to call the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email scandal a "matter" and not an "investigation."

                            Under questioning by panel chairman Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC), Comey said that he was uncomfortable with the unexpected meeting Lynch had with former President Bill Clinton on an airport tarmac last year.

                            Comey said that meeting convinced him that the independence of the investigation was tainted with regard to the Justice Department and led him to go public with the bureau's findings on Clinton.
                            http://circa.com/politics/comey-says...ton-email-case

                            So Comey believed that Lynch actually tainted the investigation - can we charge her for obstruction?
