?I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go,? Mr. Trump told Mr. Comey, according to the memo. ?He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.?

Comey Memo Says Trump Asked Him to End Flynn Investigation | The New York Times

WASHINGTON ? President Trump asked the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, to shut down the federal investigation into Mr. Trump?s former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, in an Oval Office meeting in February, according to a memo that Mr. Comey wrote shortly after the meeting.

?I hope you can let this go,? the president told Mr. Comey, according to the memo.

The existence of Mr. Trump?s request is the clearest evidence that the president has tried to directly influence the Justice Department and F.B.I. investigation into links between Mr. Trump?s associates and Russia.

Mr. Comey wrote the memo detailing his conversation with the president immediately after the meeting, which took place the day after Mr. Flynn resigned, according to two people who read the memo. The memo was part of a paper trail Mr. Comey created documenting what he perceived as the president?s improper efforts to influence an ongoing investigation. An F.B.I. agent?s contemporaneous notes are widely held up in court as credible evidence of conversations.

Mr. Comey shared the existence of the memo with senior F.B.I. officials and close associates. The New York Times has not viewed a copy of the memo, which is unclassified, but one of Mr. Comey?s associates read parts of the memo to a Times reporter.

?I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go,? Mr. Trump told Mr. Comey, according to the memo. ?He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.?

Mr. Trump told Mr. Comey that Mr. Flynn had done nothing wrong, according to the memo.

Mr. Comey did not say anything to Mr. Trump about curtailing the investigation, only replying: ?I agree he is a good guy.?

In a statement, the White House denied the version of events in the memo.

?While the president has repeatedly expressed his view that General Flynn is a decent man who served and protected our country, the president has never asked Mr. Comey or anyone else to end any investigation, including any investigation involving General Flynn,? the statement said. ?The president has the utmost respect for our law enforcement agencies, and all investigations. This is not a truthful or accurate portrayal of the conversation between the president and Mr. Comey.?

In testimony to the Senate last week, the acting F.B.I. director, Andrew G. McCabe, said, ?There has been no effort to impede our investigation to date.?

A spokesman for the F.B.I. declined to comment.

Mr. Comey created similar memos ? including some that are classified ? about every phone call and meeting he had with the president, the two people said. It is unclear whether Mr. Comey told the Justice Department about the conversation or his memos.

Mr. Trump fired Mr. Comey last week. Trump administration officials have provided multiple, conflicting accounts of the reasoning behind Mr. Comey?s dismissal. Mr. Trump said in a television interview that one of the reasons was because he believed ?this Russia thing? was a ?made-up story.?

The Feb. 14 meeting took place just a day after Mr. Flynn was forced out of his job after it was revealed he had lied to Vice President Mike Pence about the nature of phone conversations he had had with the Russian ambassador to the United States.

Despite the conversation between Mr. Trump and Mr. Comey, the investigation of Mr. Flynn has proceeded. In Virginia, a federal grand jury has issued subpoenas in recent weeks for records related to Mr. Flynn. Part of the Flynn investigation is centered on his financial ties to Russia and Turkey.

Mr. Comey had been in the Oval Office that day with other senior national security officials for a terrorism threat briefing. When the meeting ended, Mr. Trump told those present ? including Mr. Pence and Attorney General Jeff Sessions ? to leave the room except for Mr. Comey.

Alone in the Oval Office, Mr. Trump began the discussion by condemning leaks to the news media, saying that Mr. Comey should consider putting reporters in prison for publishing classified information, according to one of Mr. Comey?s associates.

Impeachment Count 1: Obstruction of Justice.

If that is true and he told him to shut it down, its a big issue. Now is there any proof that. And do half of the American people give it any weight at all anymore. The media cried wolf so damn much, that when a serious thing actually comes up, it gets dismissed.

Trump is unfit and to stupid to be president. His ego gets in the way.

Any smart person would have surrounded themselves with people who know what they are doing and follow their advice. Instead he surrounds himself with loyal yes men who have no balls to tell him how it is!


Any smart person would spend the time in meetings and reading briefings, and try to learn as much as possible before shooting off at the mouth, but not Chump

Body language analysis shows Trump was being deceptive about Comey's firing and that he feared Comey.

The memo was written in February, is not classified and is in the investigation files.

Trump, and his administration are under FBI investigation and they can't comment on active invedtigations.

Like any other FBI agent, Comey took notes of every meeting & call with Trump.

"Mr. Comey created similar memos ? including some that are classified ? about every phone call and meeting he had with the president, the two people said."

Axeman

I sure hope Trump burns the city to the ground on his way out the door. I'd love to get the border wall funded as well. But his getting the supreme court seat was good enough for me. Burn the city down, and then give the reigns to Pence.

You do know that Republicans stalled Congress the last 6 years right? Democrats put in bill after bill to make tweaks to Obamacare and Republicans wanted it to fail and wouldnt let any bills through, because the current GOP is corrupt and it's party before country with them. In 2013 the border security funding bill was stalled and never passed oh and Republicans stalled for over a year to steal a supreme Court Justice.

Axeman

Ummmm, what does any of this have to do with burning down the whole city? You think the Democrats are except and heros. Fucking, please. They are all pure shit. The whole city is setup to rob the citizens blind. Nothing more, nothing less.

No no no no NO I don't think that at all. Politics is dirty and no politician is perfect or clean, on any side.

I'm just trying to point out if you've been frustrated at stuff not getting done the last 6 years, it has been a strategic move on the part of the current corrupt GOP leadership ( McConnell), as was holding over the SCOTUS nomination for a year.

Democrats could flip to being corrupt to the point of holding back legislation for 6 years, as well as a SCOTUS nomination too, to make something fail and make themselves look better.

I'm just saying if you're gonna burn something down start with cities in the South and the current GOP leadership in DC and see what happens, you might be surprised.

My respect for Mr. Comey just keeps going up, he wasn't afraid to piss off both sides to do what he thought was right at the time and as a result ended up on thin ice with whichever of the two dirtbags happened to win the election.

So he left a few little easter eggs ticking away in his files to speak for him should he get the sack.

Well played sir, well played. You took out one dirtbag before the election and made sure the other one wouldn't hold the big chair for very long.

The country owes you a debt that will probably never be acknowledged

Oh god no. They did 99.9% too much the past 6 years. I want the Federal government to take care of border security, national defense, and I'd be ok with Interstates, airports and the FAA. All the rest I'd love seen kicked down to State and local levels. Of course there is a zero chance that happens, but there is almost no limit to how little I want the government to do at the Federal level.

You don't seem to understand.. Pence is going bye bye so are many Republicans in Congress.. There won't be a "Trump's staff" when this finally hits.. The Russian money laundering is well rooted with-in the GOP it's much bigger than just Trump..

Axeman

Pence won't be going anywhere. Trump leaves, then Pence will be President until 2020. I am not misunderstanding anything.
