Republicans plan to grill Comey, Clapper on possible perjury in Flynn case
|
[NYPOST] Senate Republicans are vowing to haul JamesThe spine of the FBI is the rule of law Comey
 The disgraced, except in his own mind, former head of the FBI...
and James Clapper back before Congress to ask which one committed perjury about briefing then-President Barack Obama
They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them ...
on Michael Flynn’s calls with Russia’s ambassador.
Continued from Page 6
Comey, the fired former FBI director, said in newly released congressional testimony that Clapper, the former US intelligence chief, briefed Obama. Clapper testified, however, that he did not.
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) told The Post, "You don’t have to be a senior at city college to realize one of them is lying. I think we ought to call them both back in and ask them: Which one of you guys is lying to Congress?"
"If you or I lie to Congress, it’s supposed to be a felony," Kennedy said.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham
...soft-spoken senator from South Carolina, former best buddy of John Maverick McCain. Since McCain's demise, Graham has become more outspoken, more Republican and more of a supporter of President Trump. The speech he gave in support of Brett Kavanaugh was downright manly and really cheesed off the Dems...
(R-SC) told The Post he plans to hold hearings about a Jan. 5, 2017, meeting in the Oval Office where Obama startled then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, who ran day-to-day operations at the Justice Department, by informing her about two December 2016 calls between Flynn, a campaign adviser and transition aide to incoming President Trump, and then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
"We’ll have hearings about the Jan. 5 meeting," Graham told The Post. Comey and Clapper "definitely" would be invited, he said.
Senate Majority Whip John Thune (R-SC) noted the Judiciary Committee’s role to The Post, saying that "these guys can’t seem to shoot straight. Clearly there were a lot of misstatements and everything else that need to be researched and further investigated."
Reps for Comey and Clapper — who are among the brass hats who tried to "unmask" Flynn’s identity during the Russia probe, according to a report by acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell — did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The FBI under Comey routinely bypassed Justice Department leaders, including in announcing a decision not to criminally charge Crooked Hillary Clinton
...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away. Politix is not one of her talents, but it's something she keeps trying to do...
for mishandling classified information.
