Moments after the news broke late Tuesday that President Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey, a top Senate Democrat called for Comey to be immediately called to publicly testify.

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), who sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee currently investigating the connections between Trump’s presidential campaign and the Russian government, noted that Comey was in the midst of leading his own investigation into that same matter at the time of his dismissal.

  1. Comey needs to spill the beans and reveal the Russian connection to the Drumpf Crime Family.

  2. Wyden knows what Comey has to say.

    Do it!

    Good catch. And if Burr pulls a Nunes and Stonewalls, Warner needs to call him out publicly.

  4. Let the leaking begin in earnest… Comey is an asshole, but he has real allies.

  5. Why? I mean, he’s not going to say anything…

    I watched Yates testify yesterday, and she refused to say anything related to classified information related to ongoing investigations… ironically, the same thing Comey would say. I mean, except that one time the dickhead.

    But he sure as hell isn’t going to say anything now… especially since he’s possibly facing perjury and election tampering charges…
