6:05Now PlayingJames Comey’s testimony that he’s giving to Congress Thursday has been released and it has some interesting parts to it. John Iadarola, Ana Kasparian, and Amberia Allen, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you how Trump demanded Comey’s loyalty and told him that he was never with hookers in Russia. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Fired FBI Director James B. Comey said President Trump told him at the White House “I need loyalty, I expect loyalty” in their private White House dinner conversation in January, according to written remarks from Comey offering a vivid preview of his testimony Thursday before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
In seven remarkable pages of prepared testimony, Comey describes a president obsessed with loyalty and publicly clearing his name amid an FBI investigation of his associates, and the FBI director’s growing unease with the nature of the demands being made of him in their private conversations.
Since firing Comey last month, the president has denied reports that he sought a pledge of loyalty from the FBI director amid a Justice Department probe into possible coordination between Trump associates and Russian operatives. Comey’s written remarks do support another Trump claim — that the FBI director repeatedly assured the president that he was not personally under investigation.”
