COMEY’S BLOCKBUSTER TESTIMONY: Former FBI director James Comey appeared before the Senate Intelligence Committee in a dramatic event that sent shockwaves through Washington even before it began. Here are some of the major takeways:
–ADMINISTRATION ‘LIES’: Comey accused the Trump administration of defaming him and telling “lies” in impassioned testimony before the committee. The White House’s shifting rationale for his dismissal “confused” the former director, he said, adding that it was the administration’s subsequent statements that the FBI was in “disarray” that moved him to speak. “The administration … chose to defame me and, more importantly, the FBI. … Those were lies, plain and simple.”
