Former FBI Director James Comey’s Private Memos on President Trump Conversations Contained Classified Material

IMAGINE THAT, FBI DIRECTOR COMELY BROKE THE VERY RULES HE WAS CHARGED TO INVESTIGATE HILLARY CLINTON … BOY SCOUT, EH?

From The Hill comes the following bombshell that should be filling up today’s news cycle if we had a fair and balanced media. According to interviews with officials familiar with the documents, former FBI director James Comey’s private memos he wrote regarding conversations he had with President Donald Trump have been determined to contain classified information. According to The Daily Caller, four of the documents have been marked by the FBI as containing information classified as both “Confidential” and “Secret.”

More than half of the memos former FBI chief James Comey wrote as personal recollections of his conversations with President Trump about the Russia investigation have been determined to contain classified information, according to interviews with officials familiar with the documents.

This revelation raises the possibility that Comey broke his own agency’s rules and ignored the same security protocol that he publicly criticized Hillary Clinton for in the waning days of the 2016 presidential election.

Comey testified last month he considered the memos to be personal documents and that he shared at least one of them with a Columbia University lawyer friend. He asked that lawyer to leak information from one memo to the news media in hopes of increasing pressure to get a special prosecutor named in the Russia case after Comey was fired as FBI director.

[...]

But when the seven memos Comey wrote regarding his nine conversations with Trump about Russia earlier this year were shown to Congress in recent days, the FBI claimed all were, in fact, deemed to be government documents.

While the Comey memos have been previously reported, this is the first time there has been a number connected to the amount of the memos the ex-FBI chief wrote.

Four of the memos had markings making clear they contained information classified at the “secret” or “confidential” level, according to officials directly familiar with the matter.

Oh the irony and maybe we can begin to understand why Comey took the position he did with regards to Hillary Clinton’s private email server and emails. Maybe Comey does the same thing. It certainly appears that he did when it comes to meetings he had with Donald Trump. Just how many more CYA memos does he have just like this that would only have seen the light of day if he needed to play a “trump” card?

It is not clear whether Comey as director signed the same agreement as his agents, but the contract is considered the official policy of the bureau. It was also unclear when the documents were shown to Congress whether the information deemed “secret” or “confidential” was classified at the time Comey wrote the memos or determined so afterwards, the sources said.

Congressional investigators had already begun examining whether Comey’s creation, storage and sharing of the memos violated FBI rules, but the revelation that four of the seven memos included some sort of classified information opens a new door of inquiry into whether classified information was mishandled, improperly stored or improperly shared.

Ironically, that was the same issue the FBI investigated in 2015-16 under Comey about Clinton’s private email server, where as secretary of State she and top aides moved classified information through insecure channels.

Sean Hannity 7/7/17 – Laura Ingraham Discusses Trump-Putin Meeting at G20 Summit … Sec of State Tillerson Explains What was Said about Election Hacking (VIDEO)

ONCE AGAIN THE LEFT AND MS HAS EGG ON THEIR FACE AS TRUMP CONFRONTS PUTIN ABOUT ELECTION HACKING …

According to US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, not only did President Donald Trump discuss the Russian election hacking with President Putin, Trump opened the 2 hour meeting with that topic. Tillerson said that Trump pressed Putin on the Russian hacking on numerous occasions. Putin denied any such involvement on the part of Russian in the hacking of the 2016 US elections.

This should put an end once and for all that Trump colluded with the Russians in the 2016 presidential elections and the ridiculous allegations from the LEFT and the liberal MSM.

After President Trump & Putin Finally Meet … After 2 Hours the US and Russia Reach Syria Cease-Fire Deal

THIS IS WHAT UNITED STATES PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP LOOKS LIKE …

It is what everyone was anticipating from the G20 Summit in Hamburg, Germany, the meeting between American President Donald J. Trump and Russian President Putin.  Following a 2 hours meeting between President Trump and Putin in which many important topics were discussed, agreement was reached Friday on a cease-fire in southwest Syria. According to the AP, the cease-fire goes into effect Sunday at noon Damascus time.

The United States and Russia struck an agreement Friday on a cease-fire in southwest Syria, crowning President Donald Trump’s first meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. It is the first U.S.-Russian effort under Trump’s presidency to stem Syria’s six-year civil war.

The cease-fire goes into effect Sunday at noon Damascus time, according to U.S. officials and the Jordanian government, which is also involved in the deal.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who accompanied Trump in his meeting with Putin, said the understanding is designed to reduce violence in an area of Syria near Jordan’s border that is critical to the U.S. ally’s security.

It’s a “very complicated part of the Syrian battlefield,” Tillerson told reporters after the U.S. and Russian leaders met for more than 2 hours on the sidelines of a global summit in Hamburg, Germany.

Of the agreement, he said, “I think this is our first indication of the U.S. and Russia being able to work together in Syria.”

From The Washington Examiner:

President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin sat down Friday for more than two hours at the G-20 summit in Hamburg, Germany, for their first face-to-face meeting since Trump took office.

“Putin and I have been discussing various things, and I think it has gone very well,” Trump said before their lengthy conversation began.

“We’ve had some very, very good talks. We’re going to have a talk now, and obviously, that will continue,” Trump said ahead of the meeting, which had been scheduled to last just 30 minutes. “But we look forward to a lot of very positive things happening for Russia, for the United States and for everybody concerned and it’s an honor to be with you.”

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson joined Trump for the closed-door meeting. Putin brought his foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, to the meeting as well.

Sadly, all the whiners on the LEFT can bitch about is the fact that Trump said it was an honor to meet Putin.

Trump, a Republican who called it an “honor” to meet with the Russian president, drew swift criticism from Democrats at home, who accused him of dismissing U.S. intelligence and giving Putin’s denial, reiterated on Friday, of Russian interference too much weight.

Gutfeld From The FIVE Comments on President Donald Trump’s Speech in Poland (VIDEO)

GUTFELD NAILS ANALYSIS OF TRUMP’S SPEECH …

Watch the video below, Greg Gutfeld from The FIVE absolutely nails the analysis on his take of President Donald Trump’s speech in Poland. His take on social progressives is spot on and the notion that the LEFT refuses to listen to the words of Donald Trump that make so much sense, because they cannot get past the fact that Trump is saying them. The LEFT called Trump’s speech an alt-right manifesto. Really? The battle for freedom against whether it be Nazi Germany, communist Russia or radical Islam is alt-right? Oh yeah, and the freedom and God thing just drove the LEFT crazy. And the LEFT wonders why they can’t win elections in the Unite States? Listen to the comments of poor Juan Williams. What a fool he has become.

What a novel concept, read the transcript of the speech without knowing who said it. Instead the Left provided ridiculous and negative comments. Many of whom  probably never even listened to the speech. Or did so with their socialist, uber-lib filters.

Charles Krauthammer Says Trump’s Warsaw Speech was his Best and Reaganesque (VIDEO)

KRAUTHAMMER PRAISES TRUMP …

Syndicated columnist and Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer, an individual who is hardly pro-Trump, had nothing but praise for President Donald Trump’s speech in Poland. Krauthammer stated, Trump was praising The West, not just the United States. Krauthammer went on to say that Trump’s speech was one of the most anti-Russian speech since Ronald Reagan. Krauthammer went on to sy that Trump savaged Russia for their past actions against the Poles, the 40 years of Soviet occupation and present day. Thus dispelling the notion of Democrats and the LEFT that Trump is in bed with Putin and Russia. The images and words make that almost impossible to believe.

Sorry, the LEFT is going to have a hard time spinning this speech to the common sense people of the United States and the world.
