1. Comey lied when he said Jeff Sessions had not notified him of his recusal parameters. Sessions has already provided the email this morning showing that Comey was included on that.
2. Comey insinuated that Sessions recused himself over meetings with Russians, a matter which he could not speak further about in a public session. Sessions recused himself due to one reason only; there is a law that states that an AG has to recuse himself of investigations that deal with a campaign that you were an entity of.
3. Comey leaked the memo. This has several criminal violations tied to it, including theft of FBI property. Comey tried to hide behind the fact that he had scrubbed the memo of classified info, but the law does states its illegal regardless of classification. Also, private meetings with the president are almost always deemed classified unti lthe president declassifies it.
4. Comey lied about the reason he leaked the memo. He said it was in response to Trumps tweet. However, the memo details were being leaked and made public prior to the tweet. Trumps attorneys arefiling a complaint with the DA's IG on this matter.
5. Comey laid out an obstruction of justice case against Loretta Lynch, but failed to notify authorities that he was being pressured about the investigation, which is a crime. He also unilaterally ended the invesitgation himself, which is the basis for obstruction of justice now knowing that Lynch had told him to tap down the definition of the investigation, and Comey complied.
Here are some facts.
1.Comey's memos are his, and it is not illegal for him to released tham as he did.
2.Sessions was involved in having Comey fire. That was against the law since he was supposed to recused himself from the investigation about Russia.
3.Trump himself on NBC news said that he fired Comey because of the investigation against Russia. When he said that, a special investigation have come about which means Trump and Sessions have obstructed in the ongoing investigation against Russia and anybody have connections with it.
4.A lawyer from the Watergate scandal against Nixon, and one of Nixon's own lawyer who was busted said that this case is worst than Watergate which means Trump is on his way to being Impeached as President. There are several Republicans are leaning towards Impeaching Trump.
You misspelled "my opinions".

I just want to say that when I worked for the government, any memos relating to meetings I took were not my property and I could not do what I wanted with them.

It should also be noted that if it were not illegal for him to release them, then he would have went to the WaPo or NYT himself, instead of acting like a little turdnugget and finding someone else to do it.

David is like the other libs here. If it makes someone guilty that isn't Trump it's legal.
Hey Trump isn't being impeached. Loretta Lynch, Comey, and Clinton have committed more crimes in the past year than Trump has.
