A statement from a Senate Judiciary Committee executive meeting held on May 11 2017, revealed that Chairman Chuck Grassley told committee members that he and Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein had met with James Comey the previous week, and that he had briefed them on who the targets of the various investigations are.
Regarding President Trump’s assertion in a letter to former FBI Director James Comey that he was not under investigation by the FBI, Grassley stated that -
“Senator Feinstein and I heard nothing that contradicted the President’s statement,” he said.
Feinstein then said after Grassley’s statement, “I very much appreciate what you’ve said and it’s very accurate, and we were briefed.”
Mr. Comey was asked if the FBI is investigating the President. He refused to answer. Mr. Comey said he didn’t want people to over-interpret his refusal, but that he wasn’t going to comment on anyone in particular. He thought it would put him on a slippery slope of having to answer who else is or is not under investigation. That could reveal who is being investigated.
Mr. Comey did brief Ranking Member Feinstein and me on who the targets of the various investigations are. It would not be appropriate for me to reveal those details before the professionals conducting the investigations are ready. So, I will not answer any questions about who are targets of the ongoing Russia investigations. But I will say this: Shortly after Director Comey briefed us, I tweeted that he should be transparent. I said he should tell the public what he told Senator Feinstein and me about whether the FBI is or is not investigating the President.
On Tuesday, the President’s letter said that Director Comey told him he was not under investigation. Senator Feinstein and I heard nothing that contradicted the President’s statement.

Have you ever heard the president was? Maybe from Chuck Schumer on an NBC sound bite but that doesn't count. Or maybe that does to some people here.

Maxine Waters Admits There’s ‘No Evidence’ Of Trump/Russia Connection

Poor liberals. One by one, they’re forced to admit that no, there’s actually no evidence of any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
In an interview with Jonathan Capehart with The Washington Post, Rep. Maxine Waters acknowledged that after months of investigations and all the classified briefings she’s attended that there’s absolutely zero evidence of collusion.
“Have you seen anything – either through the intelligence briefings – anything to back any of the accusations that you’ve made?” Capehart asked.
“First of all, Waters said. “Don’t forget that all of our intelligence agencies say – yes – they have the documentation that they did use the hacking on the DNC and some of us.”
Capehart interrupted: “But the collusion though?”
“No, we have not,” Waters said, almost despondent.

This admission comes the day after an interview with MSNBC’s Peter Alexander where the California Democrat suggested that Hillary should have fired Hillary if she was elected – but Donald Trump shouldn’t. The Washington Examiner reports:
“I think the president, if the president had fired [Comey] when he first came in, he would not have to be in a position now where he is trying to make up a story about why it does not meet the smell test,” Waters told MSNBC’s Peter Alexander.
“So if Hillary Clinton had won the White House, would you have recommended that she fire FBI Director James Comey?” Alexander asked.
Waters responded, “Well, let me tell you something, if she had won the White House, I believe that given what he did to her, and what he tried to do, she should have fired him. Yes.”
“So she should have fired him but he shouldn’t have fired him? This is why I’m confused,” Alexander said.
“No, no you’re not confused,” she responded.

TRUMP: Comey Better Hope There Are No Tapes Of Our Conversations Before Leaking To Press, When James Clapper Himself Said There Is No Collusion
"US President Donald Trump has tweeted that recently fired FBI Director James Comey had better hope there are no tapes of their conversations “before he starts leaking to the press
Comey, who had been leading an investigation into alleged Russian meddling into US elections, was fired by the president on Tuesday.
In a separate tweet, Trump questioned when the “with hunt” would end, noting that former national intelligence director James Clapper and “virtually everyone else” with knowledge of the situation says there has been no collusion with Russia.
Trump has repeatedly denied that he or anyone on his staff has ties to Russia, tweeting earlier on Friday that the story was fabricated by Democrats as an excuse for losing the election."

‘Shattered’ Revelation: Clinton Campaign Hatched Russian Hacking Narrative 24 Hours After Hillary’s Loss
The blistering behind-the-scenes book, by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, illustrates how Hillary Clinton furiously blamed her defeat on the FBI investigation into her private emails, Russian interference, and Trump’s supposed support from “white nationalists.”
The authors detail how Clinton went out of her way to pass blame for her stunning loss on “Comey and Russia.”
“She wants to make sure all these narratives get spun the right way,” a longtime Clinton confidant is quoted as saying.
The book further highlights how Clinton’s Russia-blame-game was a plan hatched by senior campaign staffers John Podesta and Robby Mook, less than “within twenty-four hours” after she conceded.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/04/21/shattered-revelation-clinton-campaign-hatched-russian-hacking-narrative-24-hours-after-hillarys-loss/
This could have only been the Frankenstinian brainchild of people who were, collectively, and pathologically, incapable of taking responsibility for Clinton's loss.
And she lost for some very solid reasons; first, she stole the Democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders.
Second, she has more baggage than does Kim Kardashian on a photo shoot, and will, undoubtedly, go down in history as one of the most thoroughly corrupt politicians in this country's history.
Third, she has the nauseating stench of entitlement and inevitability which just reeks out of every pour, when she speaks.
And lastly, she is a consummate war monger, who absolutely doesn't have the temperament for the job of President.
She was damaged goods way before she stole the nomination from Sanders, and the Democratic National Party had better wrap their heads around that reality, and soon, or it will be positioning itself for massive losses in elections ahead, no matter how good their vote-rigging may be.

That's strange cause' CBS nightly spent 12 mins of their Trump reporting on the Russia/Trump collusion, and how Trump obstructed justice and blah blah blah.
When is the day going to come where mainstream reports real news again? When democrats win? Come to think of it, they would still lie, but in this case to cover democrats asses.

I was PISSED OFF that Comey didn't accept the invitation to testify in front of congress. But then I heard somebody say something that made sense. He said no because it was a closed hearing. When he testifies he wants it to be open so there's no questions by anybody about what he says. OOOOOOOOOOOOOH Donny Keep your friends close and your enemies closer!!!

Acting FBI director contradicts Trump White House on Comey, Russia probe
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/acting-fbi-director-set-to-testify-before-congressional-committee-in-potentially-explosive-hearing/2017/05/10/5173a5ce-35df-11e7-b4ee-434b6d506b37_story.html?utm_term=.ce9c98cfbd00
Why the Comey firing could be Trump’s Watergate moment
https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/5/9/15602324/trump-comey-fbi-firing-watergate-nixon-scandal
Let’s pause and note that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said that Comey was ousted over his grievous mishandling of the FBI’s Hillary Clinton email probe, a gaffe that may have cost Clinton the presidency and that has been the subject of an ongoing investigation by the Justice Department’s own internal watchdog. Comey drew new criticism earlier Tuesday when the FBI was forced to walk back his false assertions that Clinton aide Huma Abedin had improperly forwarded thousands of emails to her husband, Anthony Weiner.
But that’s the tip of the iceberg. Former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was fired for lying about his contacts with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, and has sought an immunity deal as evidence mounts that he accepted money from the Russian and Turkish governments without properly disclosing it. Senior White House aide — and Trump son-in-law — Jared Kushner held undisclosed meetings with Kislyak during the transition and only made them public months later.
Perhaps most alarmingly, Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied to the Senate, under oath, during his confirmation hearings. He told lawmakers he’d had no interactions with the Russian government; it turned out that he’d held conversations with Kislyak. Sessions promised to recuse himself from the FBI investigation into Trump. Sessions is also the man who just recommended that Trump fire the head of the FBI, a recommendation Trump accepted.

Remember Trump assures us that the illegals who staff his hotel chain "aren't his responsibility because he hires a middleman company to deal with staffing".
For a notoriously annoying micro-manager, he sure seems to have a blind spot when it comes to all these Spanish-speaking brown people in staff uniforms throughout his hotels as he visits them!
