TheView Comey is out of his element in the muck of untruth, exploitation and corrupted souls.

Good for him ! It's time someone says no to those clowns

To the entire trump family

Leaker Comey afraid of leaks,A friend of former FBI director James Comey who leaked sensitive FBI memos to The New York Times in the wake of Comey’s firing in 2017 now claims to be Comey’s personal attorney

TheView Scared? 🧣🧣

He wants to testify publicly so he won’t have to answer classified information.

TheView How is this fellow still walking free on our great country’s streets?

wsbtv And he knows the Subpoena will go away when his corrupt Democrats take control. Sad day for our Republic.

Just four more weeks and the Dems will take the house back. Hold in there Comey!

he said he would be more then happy to testify now he wants to back out. Too much evidence against him and he won't win.

Libra5405 He is just a crook who doesn't want to testify under oath. He is full of lies and hot air. Remember he was all for testifying in front of the House with cameras.

He just wants an open forum so he can refuse to answer questions on the basis of classified information. What a weak man.

BCharlote He demands to be on TV.

Democrats promised long term employment if he covered all their crimes

If comey was smart he would show proof that lynch and higher democrats got him to do their dirty work cover ups

Fbi lovers comey staff

Didn't loretta lynch meeting with bill Clinton start the whole cover up comey boss lynch

TheView He must be scare of something.

What a surprise. I don’t know what he’s worried about. . . He already lied through his teeth to them and wasn’t even prosecuted or sent to jail. Clearly, there is a two-tiered Justice system in this country. 🙄

TheView Seems like Comey still paying for his mistake. His own party wants to prosecute him over and over again.

TheView Comeyismyhomey

closed doors are for communist governments and dictatorships. this is a DEMOCRACY, Donnie. KeepItInTheOpen

Comey is trying to hide that fact that he is a DIRTY COP. HOW DARE HE TALK ABOUT LEAKING - HE & ADAM SCHIFF ARE THE BIGGEST LEAKERS OF ALL. THEN THERE IS THE FACT THAT HE TOOK GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS HOME - IN ESSENCE STOLE THEM.

He forgets that the House has oversight AUTHORITY over the FBI. By law. He does not set the rules, or set conditions. Simply put, when they call he is required by law to appear.

TheView Done ski! Haha! The man who’s lied in front of congress, leaked and was the lead on SpyGate is worried about leaks? I think he’s more worried about the Military Tribunals coming soon. D5

Wasn’t he fired already! No news.

Comey wants a PUBLIC hearing. Republicans want it behind closed doors so they can control what we know. Facts matter people read.

Repubs want a private committee hearing, he wants a public meeting. Good for him, keeping it public will prevent the lies from the corrupt committee after the hearing.

-ONE💯😂😂😂

Comey is scared 🤣

Sounds like someone just doesn't want to go before Congress again while he is under oath.. might be some embarrassing or awkward questions he might not want asked. Of course he could just do like every other person in the last 2 years and plead the fifth

He’s a swamp rat trying to run from the fire.

Well, of course he did. Sorry Jimmie you don't get a free ride any longer.

Panic time.

If you did nothing wrong what is your challenge? And when you subpoena someone did they have the same challenge? NO

Good strategy....just wait until Democrats take over!

Such an arrogant a--

Trump = written answers only, and preferably written by someone who doesn't default to using crayons. For all comey 's faults (why the ***k did you reopen the Hillary email converstion when you did), he invites an open hearing and can handle complete sentences and thoughts.

Seems like that could take a little time. 😁

Smart move, history proves much about this future.

he was SO WORRIED about Hillary's email he made sure that Trump had every advantage before election. Are we supposed to feel sorry for comey?

Scared little man

see: what is good for the goose is not good for the gander...

Stalling until the Dems take over.

what is he so afraid of?

Crook

James Comey drops legal challenge to Congressional GOP subpoena to testify about 2016 investigationsFormer FBI Director James Comey said on Sunday that he's has dropped a legal challenge to a Republican-led effort to compel his testimony before Congress. They’ll reneg instantly. Doesn’t matter. They are done in Jan. and they know it. This is just flailing talk-radio-driven desperation by the party who was fired for doing just this kind of crap. 'As part of a new agreement with the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee, lawmakers have agreed to release a full transcript of Comey's testimony within 24 hours.' Let's make sure to hold them to that. Sorry Jimmy... the challenge was useless in the first place. This Congress is gone in 2 months. Save your saliva.

Comey Lawyer rips house GOP: 'Indisputable' Mueller more effectiveIn an exclusive interview, former FBI Director James Comey’s lawyer joins Ari Melber ahead of Comey’s testimony before a House GOP Committee this week. Attorney David Kelly tells Melber that the GOP wanted to hear Comey’s testimony in a closed session, but to “prevent” his words from being “twisted” and used for a predetermined “political narrative” they have ensured the full hearing transcript will be released to the public. Kelly also notes that it is “indisputable” that Special Counsel Mueller has proven much more effective that House Republicans in his investigation. AriMelber Comey is a primadonna fraud. Hiding from the truth by wanting a 5 min turn table in front the cameras. Get your a$$ in the hot seat chump. AriMelber Excellent excellent AriMelber

Comey Challenges House GOP Subpoena in CourtIn what both defendants and plaintiffs acknowledged was an unprecedented case, lawyers for James Comey went to court Friday to challenge a subpoena ordering the former FBI director to testify before Congress next week. And they’re correct. So everytime Comey said he couldn't give an answer in an open session of Congressional hearings he was lying cause he thinks Congress is supposed to conduct all business in the open! Comey and his lawyers are all liars! The GOP is running a protection racket for the Trump family. They want Comey behind closed doors so they can undermine Mueller's investigation. Trump's lawyers probably fed them questions. You have to wonder what they get in return.
