FBI director James Comey sacked by Trump :

Quote:Mr Comey had been leading an inquiry into alleged links between the Trump election campaign and Russia.

President Trump said in a letter to Mr Comey that "you are not able to effectively lead the Bureau".

My own assumption on this is that Trump wants to get his own man in the FBI so that he can get the above said allegations whitewashed and buried. wouldn't surprise me if that makes the Senate finally snap and impose the impeachment process.
Clearly this presidency is making the USA a laughing stock on it's own, and Trump himself looking more like a man losing his marbles as each day passes. It's like watching the "Madness of King George" being played out in real life

According to the Washington Post, President Trumphas divulged classified code information to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador in a White House meeting last week.

^ He was already likely to be forced to hand over any tapes of his Comey meetings and this is likely to lead to a swift demand for any tapes of his Russian meeting. Of course we can't be certain yet if it's true but unfortunately it does have the ring of truth to it based on his past behaviour.

^ Allegedly, the information wasn't just 'code word' classified (the absolute highest level of secret, so secret not even some members of the government and security services would have access), but it was also information supplied by a trusted partner state, and they did not give permission to pass it on to Russia, so are likely to be super pissed and think twice about sharing future intelligence.

If that is true, he has probably just made America a little less safe.

What would happen if Donald Trump were impeached?

It seems that Comey made notes of his meeting with Trump and he was asked to drop the investigation into Flynn.

Trump is holed below the waterline. It's only a matter of time now.

Just been watching a bit of CNN news on Sky channel 506, from what i can gather according to CNN, Comey has been making notes of all of has meetings with trump, it also mentioned that Comey or the FBI had been asked by Trump or some one connected to trump if they would jail or bring charges against the press for the reporting of leaks. the FBI declined .

^^ So, Trump thinks it ok for him to leak information, but he wants Journalists who tell the world that he leaked info locked up?

Think the glue from his syrup is being absorbed through his skin Just shows how bad politics is when the most powerful man in the world is a Bawbag
