Date: October 18th, 2025 9:35 PM Author: mustard multi-colored stead I don't think Trump wins any conservatives for the simple fact that the states themselves oppose this. Virtually every statute we have on this seems to assume that if the POTUS is commanding the National Guard within a state, the governor of that state has asked for help. No one in Congress ever imagined a scenario where the governor is saying "we don't need help" but the POTUS is deploying the NG in that state (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5787602&forum_id=2Reputation#49358728) |

Date: October 20th, 2025 11:11 PM Author: Crystalline comical pisswyrm I think he's guilty by how difficult the actual paragraph refuting the facts is to parse.
It seems to me he's arguing that - even though Cruz in that line of questioning asks if Comey ever authorized leaks about Trump - Comey's response was that he stands by his statements in 2017 - but those 2017 statements were about leaks about Hilary
It seems like Comey is sort of ceding that he authorized leaks about Trump, but is arguing in the Cruz exchange that he never lied about it, because he just spoke in riddles that actually referred to Hillary.
Is that right?
---------
The indictment focuses on testimony that Mr. Comey gave in response to questioning by Senator Ted Cruz at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. See Oversight of the Crossfire Hurricane Investigation: Day 3, Hearing Before the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary, 116th Cong. (Sept. 30, 2020), During that hearing, Senator Cruz described how, during 2017 testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Mr. Comey had denied “ever authoriz[ing] someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports about the Trump investigation or the Clinton Administration.” Excerpt of Transcript of Oversight of the Crossfire Hurricane Investigation: Day 3, Hearing Before the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary, 116th Cong., at 11 (Sept. 30 2020) (“Crossfire Hurricane Oversight Transcript”), Exhibit C. Senator Cruz then asserted that Andrew McCabe, who previously served as Mr. Comey’s Deputy Director of the FBI, “publicly and repeatedly stated that he leaked information to the Wall Street Journal and that [Mr. Comey was] directly aware of it, and that [Mr. Comey] directly authorized it.” Id. Senator Cruz asked Mr. Comey “[w]ho’s telling the truth?” Mr. Comey responded: “I can only speak to my testimony,” and “I stand by . . . the testimony you summarized that I gave in May of 2017.” Id. Senator Cruz followed up by asking: “So, your testimony is you’ve never authorized anyone to leak. And Mr. McCabe when if he says contrary, is not telling the truth, is that correct?” Id. In response, Mr. Comey stated: “Again, I’m not going to characterize [McCabe’s] testimony, but mine is the same today.” Id. The indictment misstates the exchange between Senator Cruz and Mr. Comey. Senator Cruz asked Mr. Comey to affirm or deny prior testimony that he authorized “someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports about . . . the Clinton Administration.” But Hillary Clinton was not elected, and Senator Grassley’s original questioning in 2017 related to the “Clinton investigation.” See FBI Oversight Transcript at 5, Exhibit B. The indictment nonetheless mischaracterizes Mr. Comey as stating that he “had not ‘authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports’ regarding an FBI investigation concerning PERSON 1,” ECF No. 1 at 1 (emphasis added). Thus, the indictment replaces Senator Cruz’s reference to the “Clinton Administration” with a reference to “PERSON 1” (Hillary Clinton) and misleadingly attributes statements to Mr. Comey that he did not in fact make during his September 30, 2020, testimony. 8
Further, the indictment omits Senator Cruz’s words that explicitly narrow the focus of his questions to Mr. McCabe and misleadingly implies that the questioning related to Mr. Richman. In fact, Mr. Comey’s September 2020 exchange with Senator Cruz made no reference whatsoever to Mr. Richman, who ultimately appears in the indictment as PERSON 3. Instead, the context of the exchange confirms that Senator Cruz was asking about leaks by Mr. McCabe—indeed, Senator Cruz asked Mr. Comey whether he or Mr. McCabe was “telling the truth.” In other words, the indictment presents an inaccurate description of the testimony at the heart of this case.

Date: October 21st, 2025 11:55 AM Author: Crystalline comical pisswyrm To me, if he did leak, then this statement below is a lie. It's cutesie to then argue this statement wasn't meant to say that he never leaked the Trump investigation:
"So, your testimony is you’ve never authorized anyone to leak. And Mr. McCabe when if he says contrary, is not telling the truth, is that correct?” Id. In response, Mr. Comey stated: “Again, I’m not going to characterize [McCabe’s] testimony, but mine is the same today.” |

You said yourself: “It seems to me he's arguing that - even though Cruz in that line of questioning asks if Comey ever authorized leaks about Trump - Comey's response was that he stands by his statements in 2017 - but those 2017 statements were about leaks about Hilary” (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5787602&forum_id=2Reputation#49363952) |
|
Date: October 21st, 2025 12:57 PM Author: Crystalline comical pisswyrm If Cruise says "Do you say today that you never leaked information about the Trump investigation"
And Comey responds "I stand by my September 5, 2022 statements."
But his September 5, 2022 statements were about his statements about sandwiches - isn't that sort of a lie?
Also, seems in this case his lawyers are reverse engineering this to not be a lie, and in the moment Comey probably thought he was saying he never leaked info about Trump. |

as to my "?", isn't the issue whether he lied to congress about leaking and not whether leaking is itself illegal? |

Date: October 21st, 2025 8:58 PM Author: aphrodisiac light people who are hurt yes but if you read this subthread the quotemo is conceding that they don’t even have him on lying
anyway this is all academic since this case is getting dismissed on a pretrial motion
also Trump’s ID lawyer US atty is going to be disqualified:
https://x.com/kyledcheney/status/1980725171142168668?s=46
but I think Comey would rather win on his selective/vindictive prosecution motion so the charges get dismissed with prejudice |

Which means Cruz is a shitty cross-examiner. Just because a witness doesn't answer your question doesn't mean the witness lied.
Cruz: "Have you ever authorized classified information to be leaked to the Press?"
You: "I stand by my previous statement from July 1, 2022"
July 1, 2022 statement: "Goddamn I love a nice hard, veiny penis in my mouth!"
You didn't lie. You simply didn't answer the question and Cruz sucks at getting a clear answer. |

The charge against Comey is that he lied to Congress about authorizing someone to disclose information about the Clinton Investigation to the Press.
Not, did Comey leak memos about Trump trying to force him to drop the Flynn investigation.
