GOP chairs press DOJ for information on Comey friend who shared memo to press

The Hill— Two House GOP chairmen are pressing the Department of Justice (DOJ) for information about former FBI Director James Comey‘s friend who shared the contents of a Comey memo with the press.

Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (Va.) and Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy (S.C.) sent a letter to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein on Tuesday asking the DOJ to provide information about Daniel Richman, a law professor at Columbia University.

Goodlatte and Gowdy, who are conducting a joint investigation into FBI decision-making during the 2016 presidential election, asked the DOJ to provide by May 15 documents and information about Richman’s status at the FBI well as his handling of Comey’s memos.

They asked for a range of information about his involvement at the FBI, including any titles he had, his span of service at the bureau, his responsibilities, security clearance level status or statuses, who hired him, the degree of access he had to the FBI and DOJ, communications he had with other FBI officials, any reports or documents he produced, performance reviews as well as “any records that captured Richman’s entry and exit to FBI space.” read more

  1. They want the info to make sure there’s nothing that could implicate them in the oncoming storm while they continue to act like they were somewhere near Jupiter while all this was going on.

  2. I would also like to see the identities of the five wealthy donors that ponied-up $50 million dollars to pay for Fusion-Steele Dossier, “The Sequel”.

  3. Unless these “investigators” start showing some teeth by making arrests, showing some public perp walks, and generally acting like a law enforcement agency instead of a law evasion agency nothing is going to change.

  4. Bill, if the citizens expect the ruling class to turn control back to the people they’ll probably be waiting a long time. I don’t know that there’s any historical precedent for that happening (voluntarily).

    Right, never happen. That is why the rebels had to hire Washington to lead us in the killing of the “ruling Class”250 years ago.
    The only way the UNIPARTY will cede power is by fixin bayonets and spilling blood! BTW Had the rebels lost the rebellion I would not be here as my family were rebels. Death before dishonor means something real in my clan.
