    “I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul

    Right now pointing out that Comey was one of the leakers and after being fired he authorized his friends to leak the memos.

    Now over (2:35)

    How are those leaks not a crime?

    And while everyone is fixated on the Comey distraction crap, the rest of Congress is today taking up complete financial overhaul bills (H.R. 10 - Financial CHOICE Act of 2017, repeals Dodd-Frank, TBTF, etc) and Iran sanctions bills (S. 722 - Countering Iran's Destabilizing Activities of 2017, targeting Iran's missile program and designating Iran a terrorist nation).

    When the media is wall-to-wall about one nothingburger topic like the Comey stuff, ya gotta watch what the other hand is doing!

    What I'm hearing is something like - he'd already been fired so his personal memos weren't government documents or classified - but not everyone is buying this. Trumps lawyer says it was "privileged communications".

    Brawndo's got what plants crave. Its got electrolytes.



    H. L. Mencken said it best:


    “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”


    "As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

    None of this is curtailing our liberties.

    It's just a sideshow.
    There are no crimes against people.
    There are only crimes against the state.
    And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.

    So Comey can judge Trump's intentions, but when Clinton smashes blackberries with a hammer and wipes 33,000 subpoenaed emails, he can;t find "intent".

    Trump's personal lawyer to file complaint after Comey testimony

    Prof. Jonathan Turley sees problems with Comey's leaks

    (Jonathan Turley is a law scholar with libertarian leanings and a professor at George Washington University Law School. In 2011 he filed a challenge to the Libya war on behalf of 10 congressmen including Ron Paul, Walter Jones and Dennis Kucinich. When Ron Paul was asked during his presidential campaign, who he'd consider for a supreme court justice, Turley was one of the men Paul talked about. )

    (excerpt)

    The problem is that Comey’s description of his use of an FBI computer to create memoranda to file suggests that these are arguably government documents. Comey admitted that he thought he raised the issue with his staff and recognized that they might be needed by the Department or Congress. They read like a type of field 302 form, which are core investigatory documents.

    The admission of leaking the memos is problematic given the overall controversy involving leakers undermining the Administration. Indeed, it creates a curious scene of a former director leaking material against the President after the President repeatedly asked him to crack down on leakers.

    Besides being subject to Nondisclosure Agreements, Comey falls under federal laws governing the disclosure of classified and nonclassified information. Assuming that the memos were not classified (though it seems odd that it would not be classified even on the confidential level), there is 18 U.S.C. § 641 which makes it a crime to steal, sell, or convey “any record, voucher, money, or thing of value of the United States or of any department or agency thereof.”

    There are also ethical and departmental rules against the use of material to damage a former represented person or individual or firm related to prior representation. The FBI website states:

    Dissemination of FBI information is made strictly in accordance with provisions of the Privacy Act; Title 5, United States Code, Section 552a; FBI policy and procedures regarding discretionary release of information in accordance with the Privacy Act; and other applicable federal orders and directives.”
