The ONLY thing I want to hear from Jim Comey is; "I'M SORRY"!!!

Little pissant is apparently on some kind of rehabilitation tour, or he's hawking some stupid FUCKING book.

Unless that book is 600 pages of handwritten "I'm Sorry!!" from page 1 to 600, I don't want to see it.

If he wants to elaborate, I'll be fine with Chapter Titles like:

"I'm sorry I single-handedly brought this nightmare on America"

"I'm sorry I destroyed 240 years of American Democracy".

"I'm sorry I didn't have the balls, guts, backbone, courage, spine, honor, integrity, fortitude or strength to stand up to rogue prosecutors and FBI agents in the Southern District of New York"

"I'm sorry I cut the Clinton Campaign off at the knees 5 days before the election".

"I'm sorry I was so concerned about the integrity of the FBI that I turned it over to a fucking fraudulent, fuckstick, serial rapist."

"I'm sorry for the thousands, or hell, probably millions of women that will bleed out on the table, die from sepsis and be forced to stay in abusive relationships because of my cowardice".

"I'm sorry I've enabled the prospect of supreme court sanctioned political assassinations and CONCENTRATION CAMPS to become normal issues in presidential campaigns".

Short of these, AND MORE APOLOGIES, I give not one-fuck about what Jim Comey has to say about ANYTHING!

I don't want his opinion on American Democracy.

I don't want his opinion on justice and law.

I don't want to hear about his fucking faith.

I don't want his opinion on politics, the rule of law, court cases, the FBI, DOJ, or MOST OF ALL, honor, courage and integrity.

If he wants to now rejoin the ranks of civil society, fuck him to hell and back.

If he strips naked, rolls in ashes, puts on sackclothe and sets himself on fire, I might glance in his direction, but short of that, he can just shut the fuck up.

he did bring up the Hillary Clinton email lie again and that was something he could
have checked out in under 1 hour and when he did check it out it was too late and the

Somehow I got the feeling that when Trump hugged Comey that it was a very mobbed up
act. Kind of like, “I know that you are dirty and you know that I know you’re dirty.”

Thu May 23, 2024, 08:07 AM

Because GOP loyalists were going to reopen the emails. He felt he had to announce their intentions. However, he could absolutely go on and said the reopening was a BS political stunt which he knew it was. Instead he announced it straight face which meant I was always sure he was for the October surprise.

So what if he piped up again a few days later and took it all back. By then, it was late October and there were a FEW DAYS remaining before Election Day. And voters had already decided. Yes, Hillary got more votes, but the popular vote was outweighed by the fucking Electoral College. I think the math would have been better - and more decisive for HER - if Comey had shut up instead of whoring for the cameras with some scandalous last-minute "breaking news" that wound up being a WORLD-CLASS nothing-burger.

FUCKER. Didn't matter that he finally came around, and owned up to being wrong. By then the cake was baked and the damage was done.

Thu May 23, 2024, 01:34 PM
May 2024

Don't you remember him releasing the election day data to Darapaska?

It was relayed to Manifort by someone at abc news. Probably exit polls. Then they knew what districts/precincts to beef up in the three swing states of WI, MI, and PA . He won by only 77,000 total over those three states, which is what swung the EC. Two out of three of those states had Republican governors at that time (WI and MI), which means they also likely had R Secretaries of State, the officer who is in charge of elections.

Very targeted votes....

he did say that no one should worry about any little things they might not like about Biden and that this election is too important to vote third party or Mickey Mouse instead of trump, and that Biden is the only choice. (not an exact quote). That's an important message this year. Biden needs every freaking non-trump vote there is. No RFK, Jr., no Cornell West, no Jill Stein, and yeah... no Mickey Mouse.

I will never forget or forgive what he did to Hillary in 2016 but there's plenty of blame to go around when it comes to that election and I don't forget or forgive them, either.

The Dems should start an ad campaign starting in late August, foreshadowing and asking what the Republican's
will pull this year for their "October Surprise" Tell people to not be duped like the voters were for the Comey Stunt and the Swift Boat Stunt, and show what they did in those two cases.....

What police chief goes on tv and announces hey, we got an anonymous tip about a neighborhood with 100 dead bodies in the streets all with signs of ebola, and then goes to investigate only to find it was a prank call?

C'mon. Do the bare minimum due diligence, find out there's nothing there, then don't go on tv. Simple.

But he had an agenda, so he committed yet another breach of protocol, policy, and best practices and here we are.
