WASHINGTON — President Trump told Russian officials in the Oval Office this month that firing the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, had relieved “great pressure” on him, according to a document summarizing the meeting.

“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

Mr. Trump added, “I’m not under investigation.”

The conversation, during a May 10 meeting — the day after he fired Mr. Comey — reinforces the notion that the president dismissed him primarily because of the bureau’s investigation into possible collusion between Mr. Trump’s campaign and Russian operatives. Mr. Trump said as much in one televised interview, but the White House has offered changing justifications for the firing.

The comments represented an extraordinary moment in the investigation, which centers in part on the administration’s contacts with Russian officials: A day after firing the man leading that inquiry, Mr. Trump disparaged him — to Russian officials.

If the President is lucky, the leaker will be the same person fingered in the campaign Russian connection....he can fire him and kill two huge birds with one stone

One thing I am curious about is how this could have been leaked. It was my understanding that only the president and the Russians were present for this meeting.

But Z will tell you the Russians were not involved if we can get him away from searching his plumbing.

Exactly! Just ignore the wacky pitch at the end.

Former FBI assistant director, James Kallstrom, total destroys James Comey and the rest of the FBI in this shocking interview. Kallston talks about how James Comey intentionally allowed the terrorist organization Muslim brotherhood to infiltrate the white house the rest of the US

I hope there are no trials, no impeachment either. But pretending the media made this up is wishful thinking.

The Prez may well be the greatest media manipulator in history (at least tied with the kardashians) so when he cries like a baby about unfair fake stuff, it is more manipulation. I suspect that he is the yuuugest leaker of all, trying to set up trails that lead nowhere etc. But there are so many non leak direct quotes and stuff piling up that, like Watergate, it could be two years to sort through.

But the foreign connections are absolutely real, we should be proud a free press reported these facts. It's a case of if they led to influence or those that had them just happened to be stupid and not reported the facts...which has definitely happened on the record and unnecessarily raises red flags.

If a cover up is happening, or has happened, those red flags will be flashing wildly.

Let's let the system work before we hang anyone or denounce the media in blind support. It's what we all claim makes us the best nation evah, now we get to prove it.

On Monday while President Obama was taking part in a global nuclear security summit in South Korea, he was caught on tape asking for Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for "space." "This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility," Obama implored. Obama assured the departing Russian President he will have the "flexibility" required to deal with missile defense issues after the 2012 presidential election.



Nobody gave 2 $hits about it then.
