Comey agrees to testify in OPEN session before Senate intel committee

Take a shot for every question they'll bring up about Hillary and emails.

I doubt it. This is who most people want to hear from. It'll look like Mueller is trying to hide something.

True, and as other have said Mueller and Comey are close, so presumably he got the OK from Mueller before agreeing to it.

I certainly hope it happens. Should make for great entertainment.
 
Ok not to rain on the parade: how does this work? Isnt he going to not be able to answer a lot of questions as they would be tied to an on going investigation? Or does that not matter as he was fired, even though the matters that would be discussed would fall under the ongoing case?

America has far from redeemed itself, there is still the problem of racism, homophobes namely those who voted for this pos.
Well of course. But redemption for the majority of voters in regard to having Trump/co. in power. I was partially joking

This is a good thing.

We just want to fill in the dots
 
On one hand, I could see this interfering with the Mueller investigation.

On the other hand, I want as much damaging information public as possible.

Wouldn't surprise me if this is cancelled/postponed at the behest of Mueller if he feels it will cause harm to his investigation.

Or it is likely they already discussed this.
 
Yet even amid the stress of that time, Comey didn’t hesitate to force the issue of STELLAR WIND, standing up to the vice president. During one White House meeting, Comey said he couldn’t find a legal basis for the program.

“Others see it differently,” a scowling Cheney replied.

“The analysis is flawed—in fact, fatally flawed. No lawyer reading that could reasonably rely on it,” Comey said, his hand sweeping across the table dismissively.

Cheney’s counsel, the famously aggressive David Addington, standing in the back of the room, spoke up: “Well, I’m a lawyer,” he snapped, “and I did.”

Comey shot back, “No good lawyer.”

The room went silent.

Goddamn that ether burned so hot I felt it.

I was concerned Mueller doing his thing would clam up leaks to the press.

But today ALONE we have
- leaked rod Rosenstein cover my ass memo
- Israelis were yelling at us officials "what is this?"
- White House staff don't even resist NYT account of Oval Office meeting where trurmp says nut-job
- kushner person of interest in Russia probe
- White House staff said to be researching impeachment proceedings (hey google what is impeachment?)
- White House staff looking for legal move that would ban Mueller from looking at Kushner and ivanka.

ALL TODAY
 
It's not a game
I'm not a robot AI challenging you
I'm not a phantom
I'm in your face and
I'm here to see it through

Right before your eyes
Watch us multiply
Come to claim our rights - it's time

As our power grows
Tryin' to stop us shows
(You) Might as well go try'n stop time

So you know that we're out there
Swatting lies in the making
Can't move fast without breaking
Can't hold on or life won't change

And our voices ring out, yeah
Took the mask off to feel free
Fought it out in the debris
Now we know that life will change

Ain't it a shame
I'm not a figment of your ailing old mind
I'm just as real as
I'm just as dangerous
As you, so know you'll find

A taste of your own meds
Fire in every breath
Fire inside your head, your heart

And as your crippled brain
Tries to fight in vain
Your empire will fall apart

And you'll know we were out there
Swatted lies in the making
Your empire for the taking
Can't hold on or life won't change

And our voices rang out, here
Took the mask off to feel free
Fought it out in the debris
Now we know that life will change

Stooge republicans will just ask dumb deflecting/unrelated questions again, as they do in each of these hearings.

Still must-watch TV, but I am a bit concerned Comey might make a small mistake or something in his statements that will allow the republicans to try and jump all over it and push the perspective that he is not reliable in his accounts. That's what the republicans will be probing for most likely. Aside from bringing up stupid shit like Hillary's emails.
