The FBI is so outraged over the firing of former director James Comey that agents have doubled their investigative efforts into Trump and Russia. Instead of killing the FBI investigation, Trump and Jared Kushner created an inferno.
Democratic House Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi made a move to tie Speaker of the House Paul Ryan to the Russia scandal by requesting that Ryan insists that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein brief the House on the Comey firing.
Trump’s comments about and handling of James Comey’s firing has left the former director simmering as the FBI itself has resolved to get to the bottom of the Russia scandal.
Trump’s move to fire James Comey could already be backfiring after some Senate Republicans are so troubled by Trump’s actions that they are now considering a special prosecutor to investigate the President Of The United States.
In his statement on the firing of James Comey, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) made the argument no Trump picked FBI Director can be trusted to objectively carry out the Russia Investigation.
Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) called Trump’s firing of James Comey Nixonian and demanded an independent investigation into Trump and Russia to uphold our nation’s system of justice.
