>> We don t know ░░░░░░░░ when the next explosive ░░░░░░░░ day will be for ░░░░░░░░ Trump Administration but if ░░░░░░░░ means anything it s ░░░░░░░░ more than a day ░░░░░░░░ two away That s ░░░░░░░░ fast and furiously devastatingly ░░░░░░░░ news stories are being ░░░░░░░░ by The Washington Post ░░░░░░░░ The New York Times ░░░░░░░░ the Trump Administration There ░░░░░░░░ a massive news day ░░░░░░░░ has now been schedule ░░░░░░░░ for next month some ░░░░░░░░ after Memorial Day That ░░░░░░░░ when the Senate intelligence ░░░░░░░░ will hear public testimony ░░░░░░░░ the Donald Trump fired ░░░░░░░░ director James Comey James ░░░░░░░░ was invited to testify ░░░░░░░░ the Senate Judiciary Committee ░░░░░░░░ but he declined The ░░░░░░░░ Committee issued a bipartisan ░░░░░░░░ from Republican chairman Chuck ░░░░░░░░ and the democratic senator ░░░░░░░░ Feinstein senior Democrat on ░░░░░░░░ committee saying we re ░░░░░░░░ disappointed in James Comey ░░░░░░░░ decision not to testify ░░░░░░░░ before the Judiciary Committee ░░░░░░░░ is no reason he ░░░░░░░░ t testify before both ░░░░░░░░ intelligence and judiciary committees ░░░░░░░░ that s true James ░░░░░░░░ could testify to both ░░░░░░░░ So why isn t ░░░░░░░░ Why is he picking ░░░░░░░░ Senate intelligence committee over ░░░░░░░░ Senate Judiciary Committee Which ░░░░░░░░ has jurisdiction over the ░░░░░░░░ and the Justice Department ░░░░░░░░ reason is the Senate ░░░░░░░░ Committee is frequently a ░░░░░░░░ circus compared to the ░░░░░░░░ intelligence committee The Senate ░░░░░░░░ Committee has 20 members ░░░░░░░░ intelligence committee has only ░░░░░░░░ That means there are ░░░░░░░░ Republicans on the Senate ░░░░░░░░ Committee and only eight ░░░░░░░░ on the Senate intelligence ░░░░░░░░ The Senate Judiciary Committee ░░░░░░░░ a large group of ░░░░░░░░ senators who don t ░░░░░░░░ to focus on the ░░░░░░░░ issues that James Comey ░░░░░░░░ there to testify about ░░░░░░░░ Comey knows that Ted ░░░░░░░░ on the Senate Judiciary ░░░░░░░░ and John Cornyn and ░░░░░░░░ hatch on the Judiciary ░░░░░░░░ and Chuck Grassley on ░░░░░░░░ Judiciary Committee and senator ░░░░░░░░ of Louisiana on the ░░░░░░░░ Committee would once again ░░░░░░░░ push whatever Trump talking ░░░░░░░░ they think will work ░░░░░░░░ day Ted Cruz is ░░░░░░░░ on the intelligence committee ░░░░░░░░ Grassley is not on ░░░░░░░░ intelligence committee John Cornyn ░░░░░░░░ The only Republican who ░░░░░░░░ also on the intelligence ░░░░░░░░ So James Comey has ░░░░░░░░ at the membership of ░░░░░░░░ committees Judiciary Committee and ░░░░░░░░ intelligence committee And he ░░░░░░░░ decided to go with ░░░░░░░░ looks to him like ░░░░░░░░ committee with more intelligence ░░░░░░░░ James Comey knows that ░░░░░░░░ his case testifying once ░░░░░░░░ these matters is the ░░░░░░░░ effective and the most ░░░░░░░░ way for him to ░░░░░░░░ his story James Comey ░░░░░░░░ that he has a ░░░░░░░░ to the investigation that ░░░░░░░░ going on a responsibility ░░░░░░░░ the public and a ░░░░░░░░ to the Senate And ░░░░░░░░ it might be fun ░░░░░░░░ us to listen to ░░░░░░░░ tell his story over ░░░░░░░░ over again James Comey ░░░░░░░░ that the investigation will ░░░░░░░░ best served if he ░░░░░░░░ his story once in ░░░░░░░░ clear and efficient way ░░░░░░░░ then steps off the ░░░░░░░░ and lets the investigation ░░░░░░░░ When he testifies it ░░░░░░░░ possible that we will ░░░░░░░░ access to his notes ░░░░░░░░ notes that James Comey ░░░░░░░░ of his conversations with ░░░░░░░░ president notes that we ░░░░░░░░ contain stunningly incriminating quotes ░░░░░░░░ the president We also ░░░░░░░░ know that the investigation ░░░░░░░░ soon be collecting some ░░░░░░░░ incriminating notes taken in ░░░░░░░░ Oval Office by the ░░░░░░░░ Administration quoting what the ░░░░░░░░ said to Russian officials ░░░░░░░░ the Oval Office about ░░░░░░░░ firing of FBI director ░░░░░░░░ Comey The New York ░░░░░░░░ reports today that the ░░░░░░░░ told the Russian ambassador ░░░░░░░░ the Russian foreign minister ░░░░░░░░ quote firing the FBI ░░░░░░░░ James B Comey had ░░░░░░░░ great pressure on him ░░░░░░░░ to a deputy summarized ░░░░░░░░ the meeting I just ░░░░░░░░ the head of the ░░░░░░░░ He was crazy a ░░░░░░░░ nut job Mr Trump ░░░░░░░░ according to the document ░░░░░░░░ was read to The ░░░░░░░░ York Times by an ░░░░░░░░ official I faced great ░░░░░░░░ because of Russia That ░░░░░░░░ taken off Mr Trump ░░░░░░░░ I m not under ░░░░░░░░ Once again not to ░░░░░░░░ outdone by The New ░░░░░░░░ Times the Washington Post ░░░░░░░░ late today quote the ░░░░░░░░ enforcement investigation into possible ░░░░░░░░ between Russia and the ░░░░░░░░ campaign has identified a ░░░░░░░░ White House official as ░░░░░░░░ significant person of interest ░░░░░░░░ that the probe is ░░░░░░░░ into the highest levels ░░░░░░░░ government according to familiar ░░░░░░░░ the matter The senior ░░░░░░░░ House adviser under scrutiny ░░░░░░░░ investigators is someone close ░░░░░░░░ the president according to ░░░░░░░░ people who would not ░░░░░░░░ identify the official The ░░░░░░░░ Post also reports today ░░░░░░░░ quote the revelation comes ░░░░░░░░ the investigation appears to ░░░░░░░░ entering a more overtly ░░░░░░░░ phase with investigators shifting ░░░░░░░░ work that has remained ░░░░░░░░ hidden from the public ░░░░░░░░ conducting interviews and using ░░░░░░░░ grand jury to issue ░░░░░░░░ The intensity of the ░░░░░░░░ is expected to accelerate ░░░░░░░░ the coming weeks people ░░░░░░░░ So this story that ░░░░░░░░ been moving as fast ░░░░░░░░ we thought it could ░░░░░░░░ going to accelerate according ░░░░░░░░ that report And now ░░░░░░░░ reports that President Trump ░░░░░░░░ told several people that ░░░░░░░░ regrets firing his national ░░░░░░░░ adviser Michael Flynn I ░░░░░░░░ kind of stunned one ░░░░░░░░ said I asked him ░░░░░░░░ fired him already What ░░░░░░░░ you going to do?”
