Judicial Watch announced today that the Justice Department is now comparing former FBI Director James Comey to WikiLeaks. After Comey was fired by President Trump on May 9, 2017, he gave the New York Times a February 14, 2017, memorandum written about a one-on-one conversation he had with President Trump regarding former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. Judicial Watch is asking a federal court to order the release of all Comeyâs unclassified memoranda about his one-on-one conversations with the president.
Comey testified under oath before the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence that he authored as many as nine such memos about his one-on-one conversations with President Trump. He also admitted, regarding the âFlynnâ memo, âI asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter [for The New York Times] ⊠I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel.â The New York Times published a report about the memo on May 16, 2017. Special Counsel Robert Mueller was appointed the following day.
