(26,060 posts)1. THIS needs to be the story
That degenerate donnie was trying to prevent this testimony and deflect from Yates. There is NO OTHER STORY.

(685 posts)3. he can't be the only
guy with knowledge. He was the director, but those involved in this still have their information about trump. Not sure why everyone is so excited, he fired the guy that made Hillary lose the elections. All information on trump that the FBI and other agencies dug up is still there.

and that open hearing tomorrow. Did they say anything about today's hearing?

(130,043 posts)9. Okay thanks!
EDIT: TPM is reporting about the open hearing (Thursday one) - http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/comey-to-no-longer-testify-before-senate-intelligence-committee
EDIT 1: Just looked at the Committee website and they took today's closed briefing off their schedule. Next closed briefing is tomorrow @ 1:30 pm. They still have him listed on their website for the open hearing but then obviously that is now deprecated (although there are a pile of other people scheduled for that hearing too).

(183,043 posts)7. I wouldn't expect much from him
He still has a legacy there. He also wants to show that he's a trustable guy to the private sector positions surely coming his way.
