Dept. of Justice Says Comey Lied Under Oath About...wait for it....EMAILS

Department of Justice Issues Statement on Testimony of Former FBI Director James Comey
...In his testimony, Mr. Comey stated that he was “not *** aware of” “any kind of memorandum issued from the Attorney General or the Department of Justice to the FBI outlining the parameters of [the Attorney General’s] recusal.” However, on March 2, 2017, the Attorney General’s Chief of Staff sent the attached email specifically informing Mr. Comey and other relevant Department officials of the recusal and its parameters, and advising that each of them instruct their staff “not to brief the Attorney General *** about, or otherwise involve the Attorney General *** in, any such matters described.”



My my my Comey lied about the Dept. of Justice notifying him of AG Sessions recusal procedures. But why? Will the DOJ go after Comey now? They have him dead to rights lying.

Have Instagram? Russian Hackers Like It Too.
Hackers associated with the Russian government used Instagram to control malware used in attacks, according to a new report.
Researchers at Eset found that Turla, a well-known group believed to be affiliated with Russian intelligence, designed a malicious extension for the FireFox web browser to allow malware on a victim's computer to communicate with the hackers over the photo-sharing social network. 








Trump told Comey “he had nothing to do with Russia, had not been involved with hookers in Russia, and always assumed he was being recorded when in Russia.” I love that he denied being involved with hookers in Russia. Let me tell you, Bill Clinton must be laughing his ass off right now. - Jimmy Kimmel

Now, all in all, Comey says he spoke with Trump nine times in four months.
