James Comey’s testimony didn’t go as planned for the Trump pursuers in the mainstream media and in government.
But when Susan Collins questioned Comey, what he revealed may land him in hot water.
Collins asked Comey directly if he showed copies of his memos to anyone outside the Department of Justice.
Comey freely admitted he did.
He went on to claim that he took President Trump’s tweet about tapes of their conversations as a direction to leak his memos to the press via a friend at Columbia Law School.
Collins told Fox News she was “stunned by Mr. Comey’s answer.”
She said while she “assumed” it was some high-ranking official within the FBI, she “never would have guessed” that it was leaked by Comey himself.
She went on to say that Comey had made some “real mistakes in judgment, and this would qualify as one of them” in her book.
President Trump had some harsh words about it this morning:
Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication…and WOW, Comey is a leaker!

And now, reports are circulating that President Trump’s personal attorney plans to file a complaint early next week with the Department of Justice regarding the leaked memos.
What do you think will come from this?
Should Comey be investigated for leaking memos of his private conversations with the President?
