Interesting turn of events

So Comey's private attorney leaked them to the the press...wow. How doe's that work legal friends?

Let this sink in:

James Comey is trying to use the same attorney-client BS that Imran Awan is trying to use.

HANG THEM ALL.

I'm betting IG already has them. Doesn't want everybody to know for obvious reasons.

I am thinking the same thing... intentionally leak they are missing and can't be delivered and then monitor the chatter.

(I am quoting from two pages back, but I have been very busy for the last several days and this thread has exploded. It's a full time job to keep with you folks!)

Good find! Or should I say: good recall! She is the document researcher.

Sanders was asked about the memo today.

"We support full transparency"
"I'm not aware that Trump's seen it"
"I have not had the convo with Trump about releasing it, himself. We would like it to follow the process"

New thread from @drawandstrike

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/955915110840664064.html

Discusses the missing text messages and what he believes Sessions/Horowitz are doing and what they know.

Last Refuge and Rex are both in the middle of threads right now. Will post when they're done.

I am not benefiting at all. I am now reading all this crap.

I might have understood how to read twitter from this thread, but some genius did the threadreader website and I escaped

Misery loves company

Just heard on Fox News that the Secret Society met in secret locations...

Ron Johnson dropped that tidbit. I hope they had a sign in list. :-)

Eventually, it won't work too well for the attorney. He's already given a statement to the feds about his handling of the memos. He's already a witness against the interests of his client.

Ethically, very bad pookie.

Allow me to expand on this further. There would be little reason for a law professor at Colombia to have security clearance. We know that four out of the seven Comey "memos" contained classified information and that Comey had given four memos to Richman. Deductive reasoning leads one to conclude that Richman was given at a minimum one such memo that contained classified information. Richman is now a party to a federal crime. (And moreover, should have known that being a law professor and all.)

THEN, at the request of Comey, Richman disseminates one or more of the memos to the press. That's another federal crime.

We don't know what Richman did or didn't say to the feds when he supposedly turned over all copies of the Comey memos to them shortly after Comey's bombshell testimony naming his him and describing his role in at least two or more federal crimes. Could be a few more federal crimes in those exchanges.

IMHO. Richman is just as much in need of good criminal counsel as Comey is. When your lawyer needs a lawyer to counsel him while he's counseling you on the same matters, that is never a good situation.

In a related matter, since he is a witness and co-conpsirator, he should be barred from being in any interrogations and/or court proceedings wherein testimony is presented under the "rule" barring witnesses from hearing and thus tainting their subsequent testimony. Also, if Richman is on a witness list by the prosecution he will be automatically barred from the courtroom during testimony.

Bottom line, does this hurt Comey?? Not one bit. Could it be disastrous for Richman's career? Definitely.

With "friends" like Comey..........

Could it be that whoever ponied up for Strzok's attorney doesn't feel the need to pay for Comey's (so Comey is begging his friend instead)?

Comey is worth tens of millions. He made coin working for financial concerns during his time out of government and then just landed a six mil book advance.

Then why the hell wouldn't he just lawyer up with a better choice of an attorney? Maybe all the good ones in DC are already taken and we just don't know it...

You can tell who they are because they wear rings on their left hands.

It is possible the IG had all the texts. The recent revelation is that the FBI backup system didn't have them and so the FBI didn't produce them. But the IG may have had them from another source.

Comey has quite a high opinion of himself and his abilities. He also is very self-righteous and thinks he's some sort of hero. IOW, the guys is nuts. And his buddy is a law professor at Colombia, his bona fides as a leftist looney toon are already established just by that fact.

Looks like Mueller is trying to get ahead of the memo by demanding an interview with Trump to ask him about firing Flynn and Comey.

Of course, that is nothing more than attempting to set a process crime trap.

Underrated post. They also have stickers on their door.

Imperator Rex had a cryptic tweet a few days ago about people meeting in secret, and that it wasn't being kept as a very good secret. I just dug through his tweets but couldn't locate it. Maybe someone else will have better luck than me.

There's something else that is also on Mueller's mind, the Strzok/Page texts that Mueller himself culled or redacted before they were given to Congress. Mueller knows sooner or later, a judge will take a look see at them to see if there were justifiable reasons for his withholding them.

Strzok and Page were abnormally chatty about pending investigations before they were tasked to Mueller. Chances are they continued that predilection during their time on his payroll too.
