The president used Twitter to lash out at James Comey, Democrats and the media.

  • Trump again took aim at former FBI director James B. Comey this morning, tweeting that Comey might have secretly released even more information than he has already admitted to doing. “I believe the James Comey leaks will be far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible. Totally illegal? Very 'cowardly!'"
    Here's the truth:
    1. Comey didn’t “leak” anything. Comey’s memorandum of his conversation with Trump – which he then gave to a friend -- was his own. It was not a public document. It’s not possible to “leak” your own notes.
    2. Comey did nothing illegal. His memorandum did not contain classified information. It's not illegal to share with the public personal conversations one has with a president.
    3. This entire Trump (and right-wing) spin is a blatant effort to divert attention from the evidence Comey gave of Trump’s efforts to stop an investigation into the possible roles of Trump aides in colluding with Russian operatives in interfering in the 2016 election. Obstruction of justice is illegal, and is grounds for impeachment.
    4. Tragically, we have a president who cares more about protecting himself than about protecting America from Russian meddling in our elections.
    What do you think?

The first dance.
The toasts.
The cake-cutting.
The… surprise appearance by the president of the United States?
He reportedly crashed two events just this weekend.
