    EXCERPT:

    GOHMERT: "I did point out, though, that the day Comey testified that there was no evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia, that would have been a day he could have fired Mueller. Mueller knew it and that’s why Mueller leaked out that night that he was now investigating the President for obstruction of justice. Mueller intentionally did that so that then if the President fired Mueller, it would be — he would be accused of another Saturday night massacre, being Nixonian and all that. I said, 'You can’t fire Mueller because of his manipulation, but you have got to appoint someone who can investigate.' I mean, Comey leaked, he admitted to one leak, but when you go back and look at the guy that wrote this story he admitted to, Schmidt with the 'New York Times,' and you can just Google and Bing that and you start seeing the relationship between things that were leaked by groups where Comey was likely the leaker, you find out Comey has likely been leaking many things, some may be crime, some not, certainly breaches of ethics by the FBI director. But the relationship, as 'The Washingtonian' reported in 2013, between Mueller and Comey is so tight. They were forged under steel. Comey believed Mueller was the only guy he could ever trust that would be there with him through thick and thin and Mueller, therefore, is completely disqualified from being able to investigate anything in which Comey is involved as a witness. So the President needs to appoint another special counsel just to be investigating Comey’s leak."
