James Comey defended releasing his memos detailing conversations with President Donald Trump in a CNN town hall with Anderson Cooper.
Fox News can't say that Anderson Cooper wasent tough on Director Comey, He asked the tough questions and didn't just give him a free ride to bash President Trump, For that congratulations Mr Cooper.
Fox News can't say it honestly but it won't necessarily stop them from slamming this interview dishonestly. Fox doesn't seem all that concerned with fairness nor are they even concerned with reality for that matter but you give them a partisan pinata packed with pure bullshit and they will beat that thing all day long.
Bart Alder Point Taken, 🙂🇺🇸
Big Wasabi Pftt, Please.
Fox News, CNN, and James Comey are all evil and all acting like its a theater.
agreed. AC surprised me by his tough interrogation. he's still been one of my fav. interviewers and news guys ever. trumpists hate him because he was just as tough with kellyanne conway and other on Trump's staff, or because he's "fake news CNN." or just because they hate gay people. seriously, the insults i've seen.
He's an American hero as far as I'm concerned. The people who want to call him a leaker for exposing corruption are doing nothing but helping to protect that corruption.
You are a moron as far as I am concerned
Tony Vega don't mind the trumptards. Their cult leader will soon be impeached, and they'll scatter like rats
Exactly!
Tony Vega he would give his life defending someone who hates him in a new york minute. Republicans love evil men & hate good men. Has anyone read revalations? It's all in there.
He's a liar and a leaker. He admitted to leaking classified information. He lied to Congress and the public. Are you serious? Nearlt everyone hated Comey before he got fired.
Anderson’s aggressiveness and death stare was all of us. 🤣🤣. Coney held his own too.... great interview overall and worth watching.
Dear DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY my name is Elisa Nezello(ANUNNAKI) I live in Saint Petersburg Florida I just want you to know that you ARE one of the best things to happen to AMERICA...you are saving this great nation by speaking the truth. I LOVE who you are and represent. All my respect is for you.
DO YOU HAVE DEMENTIA DUMMY
Gotta say, he really doesn't sound like he's making this stuff up. Very well spoken.
Porno
+Trey D Comey himself defines - 'leaks are unauthorized disclosures'. So, what 'authority' did he have to leak AFTER he got fired? Oh yeah, I get it as long he says things against Trump. Until someone comes out and says Comey letter caused Hillary to lose. At that point I am sure you will be raging against Comey.
Mr Knowledge you're just a troll, and trump is your king of trolls. we get it. nobody takes you seriously.
he was the director of FBI . If you have that type of job you would speak like that too
Trey D Content matters more than appearance. If you're going to base your decision based on how well someone comes off like they are telling the truth, you're an easy person to be lied to. He had days and weeks to prepare for this interview. So would any person.
He strikes me as an honest man, just my impression. No need for anyone to reply to this with insults. It is just my opinion. The whole thing is such a convoluted mess that I wonder if we will ever know what really happened 🇺🇸
Big Wasabi Agreed trump is propaganda.
Karen Katz Like Comey said, take in as much information as possible and come to the best obtainable version of the truth. Add a dash of common sense and we can figure out what is likely the truth.
He broke the law, Karen. Don't be fooled by how he presents himself and how "sincere" his responses appear. Some of our worst criminals have similar talents. And, should you care to know what crimes he's committed, don't hesitate to ask me. :)
Jack J So what your saying is trump deserves to be in prison instead of a place of political power. Gotcha ;)
Jack, He broke no law. He's not a criminal but a patriot of democracy. The guy in the WH is nothing he projects to be for his adoring fans. He's the biggest hypocrite ever to be in American politics.
I like what Comey said at 29.10 a leader should have enough confidence to be humble. That’s an important test of any leader.
Two years later and I am still amazed at how Director Comey handled himself in that fire. If Trump were sitting there there's no escape.
Ummmmmmm
And since this airing and comments, historians. Source: I am a Master of Arts in Asia-Pacific Studies from the University of San Francisco. I also have a stint working as a “digital-ninja” in a multimillion dollar Marketing Firm, supervised and trained by Army PR and experts in marketing and PR. Come now. Trump is ridiculous.
He created that fire, along with hillary. He's about to be arrested. Firing comey was Trump's best accomplishment.
Man he is a beast!!! So intelligent!!! Hundred people asking different questions and answers patiently - wow!!!
NIN JAH haha nice one. Think of it as colloquial usage.
Srikara 1 well hes a lawyer but has bad judgement.The best thing is trump firing him.hes an idiot
Srikara 1 people with diminished mental ability think idiots are intelligent.
Have you not seen the overwhelming evidence that CNN is and for decades has been the leader of falsifying news. They actually got caught trying to make people believe they were in Baghdad in the first Gulf War while blue-screening the whole thing from the U.S. I have not researched this but judging by their past history, my money is on this whole thing, including the questions, being scripted and/or rehearsed. They even have the nerve to call this charade a "town hall"!? if you can't see this obvious, shameless, propaganda piece for what it is, I don't hold out a lot of hope for you. This is meant to sway public opinion before he gets indicted because public opinion is everything. The power of the people is everything. Don't let them divide the U.S. into two factions, this is an operation by the oligarchs that have corrupted our nation for decades. Dived and conquer; you will see this soon enough. You may not want to believe it but with age (usually) comes wisdom.
I am tired of Comey. He lacks a certain dignity by selling his book and justifying his actions. He needs to speak less and reflect more. For an FBI man, he doesn't seem aware of his motives as he's acting and only in hindsight.
If people think Comey is a liar then what the hell do they think of Spanky
Gooey 911 Delusional eh, please get help.
wow They know that spanky is a liar and corrupt deep down but soon enought the truth will come out and there will be no place to hide.
Any sane thinking person knows how dishonest Spanky is, He told you all what he is, he showed you all what he is, he showed you all how he thinks. If anyone ever bothered to look up his history that he you would have learnrd he got 5 deferments one for heel spurs, easy cure. Yhat he went into bankruptcy at least 5 times, casinos are big money makers, the house always wins. Most of the other casinos are still there. Lousy businessman. You would have learned that Trump University was a hard sell scam. You would have learned that he was laundering money in his casinos. Illegal activity. Then the fact that he never could keep his fly zipped, a chronic cheater and lier. Donald was schooled by a mafia family lawyer, and he wss raised around mafia people who his father did business with. You would have learned that his employees, the businesses he didn't bother to pay, his bills, the people he hurt. He didn't pay his lawyers either. You would have learned he doesn't pay his loans, and couldn't get loans from any American bank because he is known to be a bad risk. The trump base keeps saying that was years ago. Thats not true. He is actively still coning people. A person may change as they grow, but when your raised by a parent who tells you to say your family comes from Sweden, because it's not politically correct. He knows his father was arrested during the KKK march in New Jersey or New York, but refuses to admit it. If you bothered to go even further back you would have found out so much more. Character matters, honesty is the base of character in any leader. I'm not saying that our leaders are always perfect, but seriously I always felt that all of the presidents from beginning to end, did care about this country and many wanted to be good leader's. I never voted for Romney because he didn't want to be president, he wanted to be CEO of the American corporation, plus if your home states don't back you there is a reason, they know about the candidate. I can't say that Clinton was always honest. What I can say is what ive seen her do for children and families. She was and is a good administrator, she understands the way goverment works and she knows how to cross party lines to get things done. Sanders also understands how government works, he wants to see this country grow and be safe, he really isn't a socialist, but he has said that to mske a difference between himself and Clinton, who is part of Wall Street. You have free public schools, you have a police force a fire dept all paid for by yor tax dollars, so what is wrong with universal health care. Every industrialized country has lt. People go to Canada and Mexico for American manufactured drug's because its cheaper there than here. We have a lousy educational system because its been under funded since the 1980s. We eat processed food loaded with preservatives snd hormones and chemicals. We havent been keeping our infrastructure repaired and replaced, because we are always fighting war's and big business needs more tax breaks. There is no money for infrastructures. There is no money for basic universal health care, people have lost homes, because of the restrictions have been removed from banking not because they made a mistake when they baught them. Hannity owns 877 homes, because your home was sold cheap, Metuchen took a woman's home because she owed .27 cents. In the meantime Trump and his cronies are draining the gold in Fort Knox as fast as they can. We once had values in this country, we have not always held true to them but we are not perfect our leaders have not always been perfect, some good. Some bad and some down right corrupt. This President goes way beyound anything I've seen in 77 years. He has given away classified information to the Russians, he has weakened the FBI, CIA, NSA, the Justice Department, to protect himself, because he knows what he's done. He knows he's had plenty of shady dealings. He is afraid of whats going on in N.Y. and he should be.
Gooey 911 - Go back to your Alex Jones circle-jerk.
wow Best Potus ever --- screwed with the minds of our enemies with mere words.
I read A higher Loyalty. I can say, this man is amazing.
Amazing lmao? This pathetic man manipulated the election TWICE by announcing the details of an on-going investigation two times on Hillary Clinton, while keeping SECRET the on-going investigation against the Trump campaign. The Clinton investigation led to nothing. The Trump investigation led to multiple convictions, all pardoned. He put politics and personal convictions before morality and law.
DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY YOU ARE THE EPITOME OF TRUTH AND JUSTICE . AMERICA AND THIS ENTIRE PLANET NEEDS YOU.
Thank you, James Comey for standing up. I'm sure it hasn't been easy and we as Americans appreciate your loyalty to the American people. Respect and honor, /bow.

@get lost stupid asshole, the snake is in the white house, open your dirty eyes
Hard questions. Good answers.
This interview was revealing and needed.
Anderson Cooper: asks a question. James Comey: Please read my book.
My old grandpa ,god bless his soul used to tell me ,son never lie . if you lie once than you have to lie hundreds of times to cover your first lie it means you are building a wall full of lies to hide behind it, and someday that wall will crumble and you will be exposed .
Ebrat, so why you lie now?
Trump sucks. Ass
Ebra
I can ot afford to give you a thumbs-up or down, because what YOU have written in a language that I surmise is your original language is extremely ambiguous. It lacks an EXPLANATION necessary to clarify who is the LIAR. Since you are responding to this town hall meeting, please, make clear YOUR statement. Che cosa `e quello?
Excuse my typographical error. I meant to type the word CANNOT.
I had a 100 questions myself before i watched this interview, and i gotta admit he not only answered them satisfactorily but also made us walk through his thought process to show that there really wasn't anything else he could have done. In fact, even in hindsight and with a cool head, i can't still think of anything any moral person could have done differently. He has my respect.
I listen to this after I heard Trump's Thursday's Fox & Friends appearance, what a haunting contrast. I also found it interesting how people reacted to Comey admitted being a flawed person, almost as if flaws were of 'other' people. He seems to try to turn his flaws into something useful
Theirs a reason he was head of fbi and a lawyer, they know what to say and when.
+Kevin FanDelos TRUE WE as ppl must admit sins/wrongs/failings> WE made. Acceptance, I believe just does not apply to just AA,NA, AND OTHER SUPPORT GROUPS,BUT APPLIED TO US ALL AS PPL >while All this is going on in the world right now! Prayers! ☆comment
Yes Jim you will be held accountable
Thank you Director Comey. Its been awhile since I've been reminded and reasured that what I believe in is still alive and well . truth hope and goodness. and we will , in the end be better for what is happing at this moment.
I really think Comey is honest to a fault . ..people aren't used to seeing someone like this, so they make him out to be self serving, or they don't know what to make of him. ..I really think he's a philosophical, logical, thinking person with some humility. Today's world has no tolerance for someone like this.
serious. Are you "serious"? 🐑
He's a Legend in his own mind.
tammy Walsh-Ryan Yes... why do you ask? And your reference to a sheep is absurd. If anything, it's polarized people like yourself who stick to your side beyond any logic that are sheep.
Dan D No, he's above this simple, partisan garbage.
serious beyond any logic are a lot of people as well.
Comey's story never changes. No "he-ing and hawing" as my mom would say, just straight talk. Great interview Anderson!
While listening to Comey it seemed ominous that when asked the same questions in a Congressional testimony he answered with "I do not recall" over one hundred times in one four hour period.
mr comey did a awsome job and is to be well respected for his honesty, thank you sir and you deserve your job back with promotions
WHAT PLANET YOU LIVE ON , HE LIED AND LEAKED ITS BEEN PROVEN IG REPORT
Best season of House of Cards ever!
You couldn't write this stuff, truth is always stranger than fiction.
That's what I've been saying! The reboot of The Americans & House of Cards in a few years when this whole thing shakes out, wew lad. Gonna be some good TV.
Patchesmcgee123 IKR
U win the internet for the Day Patch!!!! Great comment.
+Patchesmcgee123 I got that sense right from season 2. Frank Underwood is Bill and his wife is the master manipulator who herself wanted to be 'king' by riding on the coattails of the husband. The author used several names, themes and situations that closely matched reality - only out of sequence - but close enough that anyone who is observant could tell. Frank's sec of state (supposed to be Obama - Hillary story), his manipulation of the black vote, 'getting ahead of the news cycle' manipulation of media, offing people ... just too numerous to list. The author is an insider or has close access to insiders. They say he spent time shadowing 2 congressmen to observe how things work in DC - yeah I believe that.... not!
Thank you, Mr. Cooper, for asking the difficult questions of EVERYONE instead of picking your favorites - real fair and balanced reporting. Good job!
M
What a honorable decent patriotic human being. I really admire him
So i guess he doesn't believe that there is a possibility that people in the government institutions could be susceptible to corruption
Did he say that?
@@xtbum3339 he constantly asserts that the integrity of the fbi, top levels of our government, intelligence agencies, and instutitons is beyond reproach, does he not?
@@thomasv5596 Pretty sure he didn't use those words. And I'm more inclined to believe Comey rather than a pathologically lying, POS traitor being aided and abetted by fellow repukes. Belongs in prison.
@@xtbum3339 no he didn't use those words, but he implies it. because he constantly says, "this president does not understand the damage he is doing, this is the "FBI", he is seriously damaging the credibility of the government institutions. " that he did say, repeatedly. Now am i to believe that the FBI is just to be trusted because james sanctimonious comey says it is ? Are we not allowed to question the fbi? because frankly i don't trust hardly anyone, especially people that say "oh trust me, we're 'the 'good guys' we're 'trustworthy'. Especially when so much information is coming to light of the shady stuff that they do, and have done. No i do not trust any government institution. You make up your mind, i make up mine. You sit there and listen to trump and think he's a bullshitter. I sit there and listen to him, and say this is a man that speaks the truth, that has no filter. And i think comey is just like obama, a holier than thou eloquent speaking, above reproach.. capable of doing no wrong, etc. In my life experience, i have come to believe that trump is the real deal, and comey is full of shit. but you come to your own conclusions, lets battle at the ballot box, and let democracy do its job.
@@thomasv5596 You say you don't trust anyone but you believe a POS traitor that's always saying "believe me"? Get real. And how do I block here? WTF
JAMES COMEY IS OUR VOICE FOR TRUTH AND REASON. JAMES COMEY IS AN AMERICAN PATRIOT. WE ARE PROUD OF HIM.
my murphy. 🐑
Mr. Comey, you are a lesson of integrity to the world...Thank you for your personal sacrifice in service of the truth for all the people in the globe. God bless you!
Great man! Watching frpm New Zealand.
Get over it.
Yo bro. I didn't know you were Yaede's brother. lol.Payback. Karma is a bitch.
If Mr. TRump showed and shows that he's reliable n'y being consistent, this would never happened.
"That's a great question" - James Comey
This is one honourable man
toofan123 he portrays himself as one.
Comey is a Nelson-Rockefeller-Era fraud who made his living on spying on American citizens.
Honourable ? Didn't he lie under oath to congress about the leak ?
I respect this man for so many reason.

“Comey Sings Like a Canary after Watching Clinton Hang” -By Michael Baxter - April 29, 2021 Disgraced former FBI Director and Deep State operative James Comey is singing like a canary to the military after being forced to watch Hillary Clinton’s neck snap at Guantanamo Bay on Monday night, Real Raw News has learned. Confidential sources involved in Trump’s mission to eradicate Deep State traitors told RRN that James Comey, who had been temporarily detained at Camp Lejeune, was brought to GITMO the morning of Clinton’s execution. Up until Monday night, Comey had refused a plea deal to testify against Deep State architect Barack Hussein Obama in exchange for spending the rest of his natural life at GITMO, as opposed to sharing Clinton’s fate. While detained at Camp Lejeune, Comey defiantly told jailors he would never betray Obama, who he heralded as a great man, and even invited them to torture him, saying he had been trained to withstand waterboarding, electric shock treatment, and even truth serum. Moreover, Comey told his captors he did not believe that the military had apprehended Clinton. “You can’t touch Hillary Clinton,” Comey purportedly said. “And you won’t get anything from me.” His tune changed late Monday night. “With military guard, Comey was sitting in a Humvee a few meters from the scaffolding. He was made to watch Clinton being marched up the steps and the noose placed around her neck. He saw the door open underneath her feet. He was seeing his potential future fate, but even that wasn’t enough to break him. With the hummer motor running and windows up, he probably couldn’t hear Clinton’s final words or Trump’s witty reply,” our source said. Comey, our source added, believed the military had manufactured a theatrical production to trick him into giving up the goods on Obama. He accused the military of using “freshman” scare tactics. He told his guard that U.S. intelligence agencies were well-versed in using lifelike mannequins to stage fake executions, often to wheedle confessions. Two hours later, Comey was taken to the GITMO medical building where Clinton’s shell, ashen and rigid with onset rigor mortis, lie naked on a stainless-steel table. “Comey was permitted to inspect the corpse and decide for himself if it was a dummy. Also, there were a pair of embalming machines in the room. Comey broke down almost immediately, dropping to his knees and crying out ‘what have you done,’ as the guard told him he’d be next unless he started talking,” our source said. “Fuck this. I’ll talk. I’ll tell them whatever they want to know,” Comey reportedly said. Our source said Comey started blabbing Tuesday morning, and that representatives of the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General’s Office have spent the last 48 hours taking his deposition. “I don’t know specifics on the deposition yet but hopefully soon. It’s likely he’s spilling the motherload on the Obamas. It’s only a matter of time now before Obama is brought before a military tribunal, the Biden puppet presidency collapses, and Donald J. Trump is reinaugurated,” our source said. “For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.” - Luke 8:17
@@honore1386 The comey rule lmao 😆 Do you always get your news from showtime or only when it matters with big things like your government. Comey is likely to be indicted soon!
Im so distracted by how cool James Comey's shoes are. They're so amazing.
Chris Evans move aside...this man is the true Captain America
Non jag is a waste-oid-idiot
COMEY, 2020, more honest and sincere then all of Trump's stooges combined.
Big Wasabi Agreed trump is propaganda.
Daun Demarco hahaha you liberals are such a endless source or amusement
Everyone has the right to his/her opinion so let me offer mine. *Anyone who really thinks or believes, that James Comey will be go down in History as an "Honest, Ethical, Good individual" as opposed to a Major Player in one of the Most Dark, Corrupt, & Dishonest Scenarios that This Nation's Government has ever experienced have been already sadly deceived & hypnotized by The Corporate Media Propaganda Machine. Time will reveal The Truth.*
СіթӉЄГ ZeroX Im guessing that English is not your first language, so although the wording is not precise, the idea you are sharing is spot on. You hit the bullseye directly in the middle. Comey will not wear well historically.
English is very much my first language. Apologies for my verbal awkwardness, but I am a stroke survivor. You should see the way I now attempt to ambulate my body, you would laugh your azz-off! However, as you have so eloquently pointed-out Ken, if the basic concept is solid & able to be understood, these days, that's all I can ask for. Sad, that even beset with a broken brain, the corruption is so obvious & crystal clear.
MOST PROFOUNDLY IMPRESSED BY COMEY , HIS HONESTY, INTEGRITY AND FORTHRIGHT MANNER IN WHICH HE ADDRESSED THE QUESTIONS GIVEN TO HIM .HIS ADMISSION TO HIS FLAWS AS A HUMAN BEING SHOWS STRENGTH OF CHARACTER ! VERY GOOD MAN AND PRIME CANDIDATE FOR NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE U.S. OF AMERICA !
I like both of these men. I think Anderson could have interrupted him less, but he was asking hard questions about a really sensitive situation, so i commend him for that. Also, I think comey is a class act. Its interesting seeing these two in almost adversarial roles, but they still obviously respect one another a great deal. This was a great watch.
We need more people like Comey among our leaders - honest, ethical, thoughtful, and cares about doing the right thing no matter the consequences.
bluedance lilly Are you being sarcastic??
I am loving reading James Comey's book. He's a surprising person. Surprising in a very good way.
15:00 We now know candidate Trump WAS a subject of FBI investigation. Funny how time reveals truth
Trump himself was not, his campaign was.
@@SuperBajack Because he never spoke or deals directly. Always through a fixer. Cohen. Guiliani.
For a reason.
Its funny how you tell a lie long enough it becomes truth
@@jamespullos8027 it doesn’t become the truth. It is a lie that becomes believed. I like where you are going though. It’s the “truthiness” issue. Had a deep and long conversation with an ex about this over the course of several years.
Thank you Anderson for asking Comey, necessary questions.
Something so steady and anchored about James Comey. Like Gary Cooper in the old movies, speaking the message that the water from the well of truth will sustain us. In these crazy times, this message is all the more important to remember.
He's a hero for exposing 2 rotten apples
Loryan Normally, I would agree with you but he should have “exposed” them at the same time. He handed Trump the election by not exposing that his campaign was under investigation. And what he said about Hillary was BS. He had more emails, said he had more emails... Why not read them first? It turns out there was no there, there. But the damage had been done at that point. People (including myself) was rolling their eyes like, ugh, really? Again? I voted for her anyway, but I would imagine people that were on the fence or didn’t like either of them, probably didn’t vote.
LORDY LORYAN, go get yourself the MIDOL!
He said it became a public suggestion to go after Hillary and she had already been investigated before Trump and the DNC allegations of cheating Bernie Sanders only made it worse. Trump is bad but his issues were fairly recent and had been skimmed since he was never a serious candidate till now. Plus he probably figured it'd be easier to Impeach Trump because he said Hillary's actions were risky, incompetent and suspicious but he couldn't gather enough evidence in time on her and he probably knew she'd get out of it and find away to pardon herself(like trumps trying to do) if elected so since he couldn't kill two birds with one stone he killed the predatory hawk and prepared to feed the perverted stork rat poison.
I don't take advice from Meth heads Joe. Get help man. I know Midol is on your mind but over dosing on drugs and being alcoholic heroin adicts doesn't need to be something that remains in your family line JoJo. Hope you beat the addiction
+Loryan 9 hours ago "He's a hero for exposing 2 rotten apples" as if at the same time before the 2016 election day. Otherwise, it's hard to say he is NOT political biased, not to mention his higher loyalty(to whom?). It seems like Xictator's selective anti-corruption movement, a power seizing movement disguised in anti-corruption; Or building the aircraft carrier in the name of we the common people's anti-consumption-of-public-funds-on-three-major-private-purposes(cars, banquets and overseas visits), which played by CCP and their public opinion guiders(舆情引导员,网评员) in the years between 2006-2007, the turning point of CCP's both internal and foreign affair policies. CCP's public opinion guiders said that we should build an aircraft carrier since CCP's officers spent 900 billion on consumption-of-public-funds-on-three-major-private-purposes every year. And after they finished the carrier, CCP's state running media intensively reported average persons' "aircraft carrier's style" to pretend It's people's will and It's a china characterize's peaceful rising(中国特色发展模式的和平崛起), which turns out to be a dictatorship after CCP started their great reform 40 years later.
Thank you for writing your book - I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it truly inspiring. You are one of my heroes !
HE TOTALLY FOOLED YOU!!!! Lol!!!
Very articulated. Very detailed. There's no interview with Trump that even come close to something like this.
Really like this guy, Comey. He's logical, rational, fair, and idealistic. He calls out both parties. We cannot normalize Trump's attack on our democratic institutions.
Leticia Mondragon . No the only reason he gave the conference about Hillary Clinton cause the New York office was going to expose Comey for slow walking and just going through the motions. The FBI headquarters slow Walked the new weiner emails found by New York office. That's a fact
Nice lady, seek the truth and you shall find it.
You mean the ones that amounted to nothing? Thanks.
The US is a Constitution Republic, not a democracy. Say the pledge of allegiance just once. We should not keep parroting democracy. It's ignorant.
Yeah he’s a good ACTOR. Acting like he’s intelligent, acting like he’s capable. In reality a blithering idiot that completely failed at his job and left with disgrace
Regardless of what he's done or your opinion of him, Comey obviously loves this country and the people he swore to protect. Good man.
You’re literally joking aren’t you? Like I hope you are trolling everyone right now.
Rozukimaru right, sure, and this planet is really a balloon
Yeah he loves this country is total crap he doesn't as a F.B.I. Director it's was his job to seek justice no matter who it May be against. Hillary Clinton negligently mishandled classified Intel by doing that she broke federal law and then she received a subpoena to handle ALL emails as her time as secretary of state and she then deleted 30000 Emails also known as tampering with evidence. He had her dead to rights and what did he do? He says no charges should be pursued so then we had a F.B.I. Director who did not pursue Justice and that is why he was fired. And he should be in jail for obstruction of justice.
Notice how this guy won’t say shit now
Comey is a crook, he has you fooled!
i have been hearing Mr Comey,s statements and testimonies,He is an honest man,sincere and loves his country and really wants to serve the country to protect and ensure every American is treated equally in fair way(He really sounds like true gentleman,love it).I salute you Sir..from India
I'm reading your book and I'm now at the last chapter. Truly amazing written piece and now I have a lot of respect for you sir. Bravo! 👏
"I really hope you read my book" x1,000
I think it was inappropriate for Trump to ask Comey to do a favor for him and Comey refused, Trump fired him.
He is a patriot.
nina choe. 🐑
I was blessed to be able to see him twice. ... during his speech in Miami and in Sarasota...I can't wait to see him again... DEAR DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY PLEASE COME TO SAINT PETERSBURG, FLORIDA AND TELL THE TRUTH TO THE TAMPA BAY AREA..
Comey, a man who couldn't remember anything during his hearing, has written a book. Who would have thunk it?
Yes, and because of that, I knew he was planning to write a book or a movie. That's what most people will do when they are planning to or are writing a book because if they tell everything, who will buy the book?
Wrong! Comey didn't answer some questions due to the ongoing Russian investigation during his congressional testimony. Also, this interview was devastating to Rosenstein, Trump and his toadies. In addition, keep this in mind, the Russian investigation began as a counter-intelligence investigation, and there was no mention of any of that in the Mueller Report. The FBI is no doubt sitting on a stockpile of damaging and prosecutorial evidence.
Trump allegedly wrote a book and he's an illiterate dunce and liar. He didn't even have the guts to be questioned by Mueller. Trump is a coward.
@@ciap.4701 There are two men who said he did not write that book, they did.
Most of the things Comey couldn't remember were precise details ("X and Y happened, but I don't remember exact words Z"), if he knew other people knew about stuff at a specific time (reasonable), or if Trump asked his opinion on intelligence matters (overwhelmingly unlikely but he can't say a full-on no). Also a lot of things the right tends to claim he didn't remember were just things he outright said he couldn't cover in an open hearing. The full transcript has been available for almost two years now, and you can quite easily search it for what you're saying is there. www.nytimes.com/2017/06/08/us/politics/senate-hearing-transcript.html Contrast, Trump's cronies have been failing to recall basic events and dealings we have email trails of them being enthusiastically involved in for days at a time.
America would be safer with Hero Comey
We'd be "safer" with a King too. Hes a liar and its only a matter of time he will be indicted. Only a fool or somneone who listens to CNN, to not beleive a grand jury has been assembled and an investigation has occured over his behavior. It has, and he's in trouble trouble trouble. We KNOW this. You wouldn't know this by watching obvious propaganda like this.
@@dannon2010 I didn't know that, can you tell me where I can read about it?
WILL you be saying that when the POS is indicted?
ARE YOU CRAZY?
can't decide which is funnier, the titles or the comments like yours.
Best interview with Comey yet!
I am not an American but I have been a journalist and I do follow world news critically. This town hall is a textbook example of how to ask questios and moderate a debate: fast paced , accurate and with no intervening ego from the moderator. Thank you, Anderson !
Comey is ten times the man Trump could ever hope to be
We need more people like this,thats been working for the government longer than TRUMP being in politics,how is it he got fired for investigation of Russia involvement in the elections,but look at what it's been happening,1 by1,they all falling.
Hundreds of times better man.
Maybe eve one hundred times.
NEVER! Comey is a traitor! He should e LOCKED UP! You should be questioning why??
Not today, Russia.@@Fitzge16
Won't be long now, house if cards starting to shake
Great man very honest
My Name is Jeff I guess you think Trump is a man of honesty?
My Name Is Jeff there you are again. You're not a very smart person, i just thought you should know
My Name is Jeff If I am a sheep to following facts and logic then I'm okay with that. I'll take that over being a sheep to Trump's absolute barrage of lies, corruption and narcissism. And you're correct, I think I'm a little above your pay grade.
Trevor Mcgraw As I understood it, he was saying that the actual term "collusion," is not written under federal law, so technically no, "collusion" is not a crime. But that is not what Mueller is investigating. "Collusion" is just a Trump/media term that everyone has jumped on. Mueller is investigating whether there was conspiration with a foreign government. Comey was really just addressing the semantics. But the crime is still very real.
Ha! Please! He is as honest as MCcabe. If Comey is honest, then there is evidences of Russian collusion.
He's been coherent, he gives straight answers! it doesn't sound to me that he's lying.. AT ALL!
hes from FBI he can fake the shit due to his knowledge of body language and other stuff. He wasnt director of FBI for nothing
he is head of the fbi they teach how to lie come on people.
Truth doesn`t change . Truth is a constant . Seek the truth , it`s out there . Comey`s truth doesn`t change
but he is a liar as any decent person can easily ascertain.
Cause your an idiot .
Thank God USA President has limited years in office!
Yes! Comey... Love your loyalty to the people.
Loyalty, do you mean deceiving, lying, and the manipulation of the facts ? James Comey is somebody I would ever associated with. But I can see you do !
“Comey Sings Like a Canary after Watching Clinton Hang” -By Michael Baxter - April 29, 2021 Disgraced former FBI Director and Deep State operative James Comey is singing like a canary to the military after being forced to watch Hillary Clinton’s neck snap at Guantanamo Bay on Monday night, Real Raw News has learned. Confidential sources involved in Trump’s mission to eradicate Deep State traitors told RRN that James Comey, who had been temporarily detained at Camp Lejeune, was brought to GITMO the morning of Clinton’s execution. Up until Monday night, Comey had refused a plea deal to testify against Deep State architect Barack Hussein Obama in exchange for spending the rest of his natural life at GITMO, as opposed to sharing Clinton’s fate. While detained at Camp Lejeune, Comey defiantly told jailors he would never betray Obama, who he heralded as a great man, and even invited them to torture him, saying he had been trained to withstand waterboarding, electric shock treatment, and even truth serum. Moreover, Comey told his captors he did not believe that the military had apprehended Clinton. “You can’t touch Hillary Clinton,” Comey purportedly said. “And you won’t get anything from me.” His tune changed late Monday night. “With military guard, Comey was sitting in a Humvee a few meters from the scaffolding. He was made to watch Clinton being marched up the steps and the noose placed around her neck. He saw the door open underneath her feet. He was seeing his potential future fate, but even that wasn’t enough to break him. With the hummer motor running and windows up, he probably couldn’t hear Clinton’s final words or Trump’s witty reply,” our source said. Comey, our source added, believed the military had manufactured a theatrical production to trick him into giving up the goods on Obama. He accused the military of using “freshman” scare tactics. He told his guard that U.S. intelligence agencies were well-versed in using lifelike mannequins to stage fake executions, often to wheedle confessions. Two hours later, Comey was taken to the GITMO medical building where Clinton’s shell, ashen and rigid with onset rigor mortis, lie naked on a stainless-steel table. “Comey was permitted to inspect the corpse and decide for himself if it was a dummy. Also, there were a pair of embalming machines in the room. Comey broke down almost immediately, dropping to his knees and crying out ‘what have you done,’ as the guard told him he’d be next unless he started talking,” our source said. “Fuck this. I’ll talk. I’ll tell them whatever they want to know,” Comey reportedly said. Our source said Comey started blabbing Tuesday morning, and that representatives of the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General’s Office have spent the last 48 hours taking his deposition. “I don’t know specifics on the deposition yet but hopefully soon. It’s likely he’s spilling the motherload on the Obamas. It’s only a matter of time now before Obama is brought before a military tribunal, the Biden puppet presidency collapses, and Donald J. Trump is reinaugurated,” our source said. “For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light.” - Luke 8:17
@@daisyfields4986 this the kind of shit you people are believing. Comey has not been arrested and Hillary is fine. As for you please stop watching fox and oan. I didn't think tall dumb ass could be s gullible. At this point its not Trump fault yell are racist peices of shit. Trump just bought it out. Yall are making being American embarrassing. Please stop and get back to some truth. Like all the criminal cases the man you pray to has going on. From fraud, tax evasion, election fraud. Stealing money from his supporters. Stealing money from his supporters are okay though. Yall deserve it
Comey, a man of substance and honour.
Bref It is sad that you have chosen to either not think for yourself, or exist on the surface of life. We live in a time that a huge percentage of the population lives on the surface so it would not be surprising at all. Any unbiased person who makes the slightest effort to research this matter and this man would never come to your conclusion.
sadly NO substance here!
Then why does most FBI think not??
He's a poc that thinks he runs sh!t and influence our elections - Hope he goes to Jail with the rest of the Brass
Mate, whats sad is that so many Americans have become so jaded they can't see a good man when they see one, instead they revere a man who by any measure brings shame to you all.
Well done. Honest and forthright.
Barbara J Thygerson You have been bamboozled. I don't mean to be rude to one of my elders, but it is sadly true.
Honest in what respect? If you don't mind my asking?
Okครับขอบคุณ 27/4/2018
Barbara J Thygerson ขอบคุณครับ
for elder sad you have not used your life experience to see whats happening. respecy you anyway
Fascinating - particularly his insights into Trump's lack of a sense of humour. You get the sense that something vital was left out or beaten out of Trump, leaving him lacking in humour, empathy and compassion. Comey comes across as an individual who possesses all of these virtues. Integrity personified.
Ok, whatever your thoughts are on Trump, Come is definitely not a person of integrity. He is a highly narcissistic person that thinks he knows better than anyone. He took it upon himself to be the arbiter of morality for the country. Think about how behaved himself during the 2016 election, when he was the head of the FBI, which is supposed to be an impolitical organization. He bypassed multiple organization policies because "he believed it was the right thing to do". He is basically an egoist that likes to smell his own farts, so self-righteous.
I hate to speak this way about any president but I have always wished President Trump would be more respectful of the office of the presidency, but I'm wandering if he has a character flaw like narcissism or narcissist sociopath.
Alex try apolitical not impolitical
REALLY , THEN WHY IS HE GOING TO JAIL
It meant a lot that comey did not have a name for him. It means that he shows respect to our article 2 of the constitution the powerful full office. Thank you sir. I hope you go far in your teaching
Wait..exposing corruption is considered a leak???wow really ppl??
LegendaryWolf Shirou whistle blowing is ethical leaking
LegendaryWolf Shirou aint that the truth! people beleive trumps and kremlin klan lies
Trump said he had "tapes". Comey ran away scared the truth would come out, so he told a friend to tell a story. (Comey claims they are from his memos, but they are really Comey's made up story).
vshah1010 yeah sure. Lol like im going to believe that. Trump already said he lied about his "tapes" wake up guy lol
+LegendaryWolf Shirou Well, Comey believed there were tapes. It's called bluffing. That was the reason for Comey giving his notes to a friend. Seems like Comey was scared of the truth coming out, so he had to tell his alternative story. I don't believe these so called "memos" are classified, and were just Comey's personal notes. However, it was a sleazy move by Comey. So, I don't believe the "leaking" of this "memo" was a crime. However, I do believe Comey has done other things which are a crime.
to remember a bullying incident 40 years later and still feel shame about it, says something good about this mans character.
It says that he has never dealt with his old demons!! Time to deal with past and live in the present in order to move on to the future!!
Or... Maybe it's all 3. dun dun dun..
No: it means he has a long memory and is quite vindictive. It also means he's a child in a man's body. And these "questions" are leading statements with an ascender to finish. NOT real questions.
Or it means he's a good actor!
+substrate001 are you referring to the chronichild dongy? the thinks with his little Peter Pan head boy NEVER had to grow up or grow a heart or a brain or a penis!
The more people who listen to this man, the better your country would be.
thank you comey
He’s so humble!! Love him....
You could be his pen pal while he's in the pen...
golly geee ya think it may be an act??????????????? hmmm
He strikes me as an Eddie Hascal type guy. Liar.
Anyone think that our dear leader can ever handle a town hall meeting like this??
that how low we should set our bar???
Cooper would shit his pants trying to get out his first question. But the thing is, there is no universe in which this would be worth Trump's time. He's not trying to sell a book. Comey is. This is an infomercial. Did you buy?
Rational Skeptic no I did not, I know he is trying to sell books but I think his willingness to face the criticism is what I admire.
He's hoping you admire it enough to buy his book. He doesn't care about criticism. Not that it was ever REAL criticism, anyway... just open-ended softball questions that he could explain by *referencing part of his book.*
While I think Comey is motivated to promote his book, any author would take up the opportunity to promote, I sincerely believe one of the primary motivations behind writing the book was to share his perspective and history which he felt would be beneficial to the country. Intent matters.
Great questions from the audience
Thank you, Anderson, for being impartial/unbiased because we just want the truth!
This kind of man should be the one to be the president of the United States, it is amazing how well he speaks how well he understands ethics and the core values of the United States of America.
The kind of man for sure but he, himself? Comey himself said he just doesn't feel he's cut out for that. But someone like him who feels confident about it? Yeah. At risk, I'll say: You're hoping for Bernie Sanders to run in 2020, then.
Eric Kauffmann It is amazing how easily you are conned.
Care to elaborate?
you wouldn't be able to follow it.
Comey is a leaker
Well handled Comey.. 👌
This guy should be in jail for interfering with a national election PERIOD
I agree. The leadership of the Trump campaign should be in jail for election fraud
Half way through and I can’t watch anymore. It’s clear that all these questions were filtered
That’s true :)
Good point.
Good Job Anderson great town hall . Looking at all this from another country I can't believe Trump gets away with bashing his own people .
what so cant u see the media and clowns like comey bashing the president. Cooper is a CIA hack and COmey is a partisan FBI hack.
shadowcat Do you have any idea at all just who Anderson Cooper actually is? Where he was trained prior to TV?
yes I do . Have a great day :D
This guy really gets humility.
Anderson, you repeated questions and gave the impression that you were irritated with Mr. Comey.
Orangeman Bad My illegal actions weren't illegal My illegal actions weren't illegal Orangeman Bad Muh-Russia Orangeman Bad Muh-Russia Orangeman Bad We weren't spying on a candidate Muh-Russia REEEEEEEEEE
Anderson. Why aren't you this aggressive with Trump?
Good question. Fair question. I was thinking the same.
he used up all his aggresivenes backstabbing a loyal friend because hes a fucking coward and greedy asshole who didnt want to loose his job. Better a friend.. yuk Cooper u disgust me
I don't get it , this scumbag help cover up crimes that clinton and obummer were involved in and so many comments here are kissing his ass ! Really ! The truth is coming out little by little and when the shit hits the fan and they start arresting these criminals for what they did it will make watergate pale in comparison! They almost got away with the biggest crime in history but thank god for whistle blowers who are patriots!
Devin Swain I'd imagine 45 would start yelling and swearing, like Nixon.
Christine Still He asks the questions other’s want to but don’t
I don't know if Comey was attempting to appear to do the right thing, or genuinely thought he was doing such - but regardless, sadly in this Trump era, we need more people who at least think about whatever the right thing is!
Yeah as long as they feel good about what they do, feelings are most important.
YEA LEAKING INFO
Comey, Declas Fisa, Hubber, Horowitz, pain is coming.
Patriots In Control
Can't wait to see these sellouts go down in flames.
Wow, now I really want to read his book. His point about an ethical leader is really profound and I'm going to keep it in mind in my personal life as well. External reference points are key.
An honorable man is fired ,unjustly, for no valid reason. And, someone says he should not defend himself? You are Kidding, right! This man is speaking the truth, against a bully who stole his career,
Right... and exactly the reason why President Liar is unrelentingly obsessed with him.
I am reading James Comey's most honorable book, "A Higher Loyalty". Every honest, respectful, sincere, considerate, thinking, human being should read this fantastically revealing work.
gag! Comey is a LEAKER!!!
I think Comey was brought up with impeccable moral values, but I think he bottled it when he said nothing about Loretta Lynch meeting Bill Clinton months before the election.
@Matthew Martin Rodgers wow u are so decieved
Bot
Is that comment a joke or are you that fucking stupid. No way , no one is that fucking stupid. Good joke! LOL
I read his book and I watched this program with a great deal of skepticism based upon my experience with the FBI back when it was run my J Edgar Hoover. But in the end I was massively impressed with the level of intelligence and commitment to integrity so much in evidence in everything Comey wrote and said. His firing as the Director of the FBI represents a massive loss to this country! That said I was both disappointed and relieved to hear Comey say that he had no political ambitions. Disappointed because we need people like him in politics, relieved because I fear that his level of honesty, intelligence, and integrity might be better utilized outside the sewer that Washington has become under the current president and Republican Party leadership!
Great great show.😁 like always.. .. when it's Anderson copper.😇😇😇😇 love this guys truthfullness!😊😇😁
I love his decisiveness in answering questions - something that has become too rare in politics and debates these days.
With all the criticism Comey is receiving, an obvious assertion has been overlooked he, (Comey) could be a better choice for commander in chief.
Miguel Salazar Absolutely. At least he was in the military (Marines) unlike Capt.Heelspurs
He is a great American Hero...He Sees people as individuals and not as a race. Makes me a Proud American!!!!
The man who changed the politics of a great nation
Good Stuff. Comey a man with high values
Bin Ren a War Criminal along With Muller Who Push The Iraq War Kill a Million People real Good Person ,Now Pushing a Cold War off a Conspiracy Theory Russia Did not hack the DNC or Podestas Emails It was a leak not a Hack.He let a Criminal off the Hook Hillary Clinton I'm a Independent With Common Sense and Russia Myth is BS and Comey is A Deep State Cock Sucker who is gettting Rich off This .
Hannity IQ's Love it
BRIAN BLAIR. It was during the presidency of Bush after 911 that the U.S. started bombing Iraq What are you talking about ?
Mr Knowledge If he leak classified materials he would be charge maybe watch the whole video
BNKNEAST So what do you think of the Orange Orangutan ?
I find it so funny that here he is held at such ridiculously high standards being interrogated about his actions while being honest, when you have someone in office who has done a million times worse things than any human and he is still given benefit out doubt
Like? Comey is about to be arrested. Here's a better interview where he has to answer under oath kzhead.info/sun/g75sgLaurpipd68/bejne.html
wow, someone's worried.
I like him. He comes across as genuine.
Lol he's about to be arrested. For basically being disingenuous.
