Ousted FBI Director James Comey is expected to be the keynote speaker at Howard University’s opening convocation this fall, and give additional lectures throughout the school year.
The university announced Wednesday that Comey would be the Gwendolyn S. and Colbert I. King Endowed Chair in Public Policy for the 2017-2018 school year, through which he will facilitate lectures.
“His expertise and understanding of the challenges we continue to face today will go a long way in sparking rich discussion and advancing meaningful debates across campus,” President Wayne A.I. Frederick said in a statement.
President Donald Trump abruptly fired Comey from his role as FBI director earlier this year. Comey later testified before Congress that Trump had asked him to pledge his loyalty and to quash an FBI probe into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Yeah, who cares about this…
Watch this instead!
Trump: I always knew that Comey is Black. That is why he went after The Crooked and Me. He is Obama’s pet.
Am I the only one who sees a gigantic irony in the guy whose craptastic handling of the fucking email nothingburger lead directly to the election of the nation’s most openly racist President in at least a century now lecturing at a historically black college? I hope Howard isn’t paying him much.
Yes, I know that Comey may yet play a pivotal role in bringing Trump to justice, but he played a major role in putting him in the White House in the first place. He’s got a huge amount of expiation to carry out before I’m going to cut him any slack whatsoever.
We live in a world where logic is twisted like a pretzel
Maybe they want him for basketball team???
