#1 Stores are running out of popcorn, brown liquor, and nose plugs. Depending on your location. Noise canceling earphones may be helpful if you live near DC.

#4  Not well done, Mr. President. Fire people to their face.

Normally I agree. I believe the disrespect was intended.
Should have passed over McCabe as well.

Let's not let perfection become the enemy of just good enough. POTUS got the ball on the green from the Tee and sunk the 9 foot putt. More please, and faster. The 'swamp' contains many more like Comey and some will certainly not learn from the example.

#7 A brief skim of the headlines indicates that this is the end of democracy, a coup, an outbreak of smallpox, grounds for impeachment, the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor, a Constitutional crisis, and the return of Nixon. I might have to have an extra cup of coffee.

#8 The real story is how the FBI has bungled (and in several cases, enabled) every domestic terrorism attack under this clown's watch.

America is safer with Clouseau Comey off the case.

#9 Fire the IRS Director next please. And I don't care whether you do it face to face or by carrier pigeon.

I suspect, as per business as usual for D.C., that there was a leak to the media.

#12 What's gone unreported is Trump played this during the phone call: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJxCdh1Ps48

#13 My first thought as well, a leak. Perhaps narrowing the leak suspects?

#14 Not well done, Mr. President. Fire people to their face.

During WWII too many casualties for an officer performing death notifications, they used Western Union. Nothing sent a chill down a loved one's back than to see the Western Union kid on the block.

Actually, with the Deep State at war with Trump, its what they all deserve in the end when it comes time.

#15 When the "deep state" consists of lefty left-overs from previous administrations and a bureaucracy largely made up of Democrat voters, swamp-draining goes slowly and is difficult. Couple that with governmental unions and you have a extremely difficult task.
