Oh okay. It seemed to me that probably meant you were caught with nothing so now you're obfuscating because there are no facts to substantiate your claim. Whatever suits. Thanks for stopping
So what do you think about Trump admitting why he fired Comey?

As AG perhaps Garland knows a Nothingburger when he sees it.
You NEVER do.
You’re not paid to be objective or realistic. You’re just a talking points spouting machine.
A textbook case of obstruction of justice is hardly a nothingburger.

Or do you contend that a political leader can fire an investigator because that investigator is investigating him without risk of an obstruction of justice charge?

He can fire a crooked incompetent who also told him numerous times he was not under investigation.
Hmmmm

Mueller intentionally refused to opine on obstruction of justice charges because he wanted to be “fair to Trump” and leave that issue to the DOJ. Of course, Baghdad Barr and Trump then claimed that Mueller vindicated Trump on the obstruction of justice issues. An obscene lie, of course.
Yep, Barr rushed out with his false statement before the release of the report.
Of course, that also means that in no way would the Trump DOJ have properly handled a referral of Trump.

Actually, Trump confessed that he fired Comey because he was investigating him. Trump's actions were those of a guilty man. ha ha.

Trump: [A] lot of people say to me, 'How you survived is one of the most incredible things.' Don't forget, I fired Comey. Had I not fired Comey, you might not be talking to me right now about a beautiful book of four years at the White House. And we'll see about the future. The future's going to be very interesting. But I fired Comey, that whole group, and now that group is coming back again. I mean, it's not believable. It shouldn't be allowed to happen. It shouldn't be allowed to happen."

And Trump doing that was okay by you.
Firing someone? I thought we covered off on this years ago, the president can fire whomever whenever he pleases. Is that not correct?

And I believe just above we've established that there was no basis for concern based on the results of the Mueller report.

Further, when the Biden administration took office and they gave notice to all of the Trump admin leftovers that they were done, was that okay?
