Mike Quigley: Trump’s Far More Concerned with His ‘Political and Legal Security’ than Nat’l Security

EXCERPT:

QUIGLEY: “I can’t speak for Christopher Wray. We’re reminded that that is the White House appointment for the F.B.I. I think he needs to do — continue to do what he’s doing, which is spell out the inaccuracies of the memo. I can tell you, from my knowledge of the testimony that’s taken place over the last year, that there are inaccuracies in the memo. When you compare their four-page memo to the minority’s ten-page memo, it’s clear that this was fast and loose with little regard for the facts. It’s a desperate attempt. It is illustrative of the fact that the President is far more concerned with his political and legal security, and he's got help from Congress. He’s far more concerned about that than he is about our national security. It wasn’t just the F.B.I. The Justice Department said that this is extraordinarily reckless, to release the majority’s document. So apparently none of that matters to them. The only thing that matters is protecting the President.”
