Blumenthal: Firing Comey ‘Raises Specter of a Cover-up and We Face a Looming Constitutional Crisis’

‘— Because of the loss of trust and confidence in our justice system’

BLUMENTHAL: "We heard it most authoritatively from the deputy director of the FBI, but whatever his faults may be, Director Comey is a professional prosecutor. And I may have disagreed with him, and I did on a number of occasion, but firing him raises specter of a cover-up and we face a looming constitutional crisis because of the loss of trust and confidence in our justice system."
