Back in July of 2016, many who watched James Comey addressing the sins of Hillary Clinton, but then proclaiming that no one would move to prosecute her, were shocked beyond belief.
It seems that former FBI Director Comey assumed the role of prosecutor, which is certainly not in the job description of FBI Director.

Former FBI Assistant Directors Weigh In On Comey’s Firing
Three former assistant directors of the FBI joined Fox News Tuesday night to share their thoughts on President Donald Trump’s decision to fire James Comey.
All three thought Comey had it coming, and some were glad to see it happen.
Former FBI Assistant Directors James Kallstrom, Bill Gavin and Ron Hosko all thought Comey sealed his fate after his July 5 press conference in which he assumed the role of a prosecutor and recommended no charges against Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state.
“I’m glad it happened,” Kallstrom said of Comey’s firing. “I think Jim Comey way back almost a year ago kind of forgot he was the FBI director.”
“Jim Comey danced with the devil, and later on down the road talked about this great investigation the FBI conducted,” he said.
“Of course, they had no subpoena power, they couldn’t compel any investigation or search warrants. They had to beg people to look at things. The interview of Hillary Clinton, in my view, was a sham.”
Comey “threw the FBI under the bus, and the reputation of the FBI under the bus,” Kallstrom added. “That’s what I am very mad about and have been very mad about for a long time.”
Gavin said Comey’s firing was “something that had to happen.”
“Jim Comey is a bright guy, he’s an ethical guy, but the bottom line is when he made a prosecutive opinion in an investigative matter he made a mistake,” he added.
“We all make mistakes in life — this was a big one that was obvious to everyone.” – source
I do wonder why it took this much time for President Trump to fire Comey. But as the saying goes, “Better late than never.”
Now I pray that our president will focus his attention on the Muslim Brotherhood members who still populate many branches of our government. The MB is illegal in Egypt. How much more should our president discern the danger in allowing these terrorists to remain in their positions.
Obama placed them there strategically. Trump needs to remove all of them strategically.
