After Comey Learns From Trump That There Are No Tapes The Disgraced Former Head of FBI Runs To NY Times & Now a Supposed Bombshell Is About To Drop

I’d love if Comey made some asinine  lies up and Trump said, “huhhh, look at this. There seems to be a few tapes after all.”

With Ominous Tweet, Comey Pal Suggests Bombshell Story Is Soon To Drop

DC– A longtime friend of James Comey is teasing what could be a bombshell story about the former FBI director and his interactions with President Trump.

Benjamin Wittes, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, posted an ominous message on Twitter on Friday: “TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK.”

The lawyer, who blogs at Lawfare, has posted similar messages in the past just before major stories in the ongoing Trump-Comey saga hit The New York Times.

Wittes wrote on Twitter that the upcoming story could be published later Friday or on Monday. The heads-up comes a day after Trump revealed that he was bluffing last month when he suggested that he had recorded his conversations with Comey.

May 16 appears to be his first time Wittes previewed Comey stories.

Hours after Wittes posted the foreboding message that day, The Times published a shocking story: “Comey Memo Says Trump Asked Him To End Flynn Investigation.”

  1. i posted ab out that last night. possibly Trump might just maybe have a few recordings from somewhere not from him maybe.

    One never knows.But if i were to bet, comey is screwed

  2. What Bad_Brad said. Trump said something like- There may be tapes but he’s not sure.
    So what’s the bombshell? Comey’s writing a book? Whatever he had to say he could have said when he was testifying.

  3. Each of Comey’s leaks is a separate Felony. Open and shut. Did you leak? Prison.

    Arrest him already. In his recent words,
    “Squeeze him and flip him”.

    The coup plotters have to be locked up before they succeed.

  4. Well, you gots you some scotch tapes, some duct tapes, some masking tapes, some electrical tapes, some video tapes, some painters tape, some barbecued tapes, some boiled tapes, some fried tapes, some package tapes… mama knows how to cook some tapes….

  5. If Trump really did ask Comey to end the Flynn investigation (which I doubt), then Comey was insubordinate for not ending it – the president has the authority order the end of any investigation being conducted by the DOJ. It is a part of the Executive branch of the government
    The next time a leak happens from Muller’s team Trump should fire everybody including Muller and announce the end of the special counsel – if the DOJ cannot investigate without leaking then they have no business doing so
    If the Dems do not like that then their only recourse is impeachment – good luck making that happen as minority party

  6. The problem is that Comey and whomever can make up as many lies as they want. Abdul Mohammed Brennan and Crapper can make up anything they want. Leakers can tell the NYT or Washington Post anything and “journalists” can make up leaks and “anonymous sources”. The question is what is the administration going to do about it? What are Congressional Republicans going to do about it? So far, the answer is “nothing”.

  7. Well well well….Didn’t Comey get fired 3000 miles away from his office? I would bet this is a preemptive head fake for him. Whatever dirt he says he has on Trump is nothing compared to what Trump must have on him.

  8. Benjamin Witte thought he was being a big wit by quoting Shakespeare except the dimwit got it wrong.

    Macbeth Act 4 Scene 1
    SECOND WITCH
    By the pricking of my thumbs,
    Something wicked this way comes.
    Open, locks,
    Whoever knocks.

    Pricking not twitching you twit.

  9. I do not believe Trump mentioned whether the DOJ had any tapes. There was some speculation that among Comey’s computer files he had recordings. The president wouldn’t be the one to search that and, not being a lawyer, he may prefer to stay an arm’s length from all that mess.

  10. Trump is playing Comey like the violin. Trump never said he DIDN’T have tapes either, my dude, and yet here you are, committing a felony and most likely lying your narrow ass off. No matter the outcome, Comey is screwed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  11. Sorry to let the cat out of the bag early Jim…
    Trump eats the crust on the bread first, then the sammich.
    He also gets bread crumbs all in the butter when making toast.
    He also does not, I repeat, does not, use all three sea shells when using the bathroom.

  12. Reminds me of an episode of “Pinks”. A guy baits his opponent into racing against him and his insanely fast car by popping the trunk, fidgeting around a bit, and pulling out a nitrous tank. His opponent, now thinking the odds are more in his favor, agrees to race.

    Of course, his opponent loses, because his car didn’t use nitrous to begin with: he just happened to have a tank in his trunk.

  13. Comey has that smug smirk of Billy Drago’s Frank Nitty in The Untouchables.
    So smugly overconfident he taunts Elliot Ness with “And your friend died screamin’ like a stuck Irish pig. You think about that when I beat the rap.”
    And a moment later Nitty goes flying off the rooftop.

    Every new Comey-NYT leak is a new felony.
    Arrest him, already.
    Rooftop exit optional.
