That degenerate donnie was trying to prevent this testimony and deflect from Yates. There is NO OTHER STORY.

guy with knowledge. He was the director, but those involved in this still have their information about trump. Not sure why everyone is so excited, he fired the guy that made Hillary lose the elections. All information on trump that the FBI and other agencies dug up is still there.

EDIT: TPM is reporting about the open hearing (Thursday one) - http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/comey-to-no-longer-testify-before-senate-intelligence-committee

EDIT 1: Just looked at the Committee website and they took today's closed briefing off their schedule. Next closed briefing is tomorrow @ 1:30 pm. They still have him listed on their website for the open hearing but then obviously that is now deprecated (although there are a pile of other people scheduled for that hearing too).
