a back-burn, taking out fuel.

As for Comey, he betrayed his office and our nation, and whenever I hear the right may go after him I smile. The FBI's behavior regarding the 2015-2016 election season couldn't take much direct scrutiny without exploding into flames.

Know thy enemy right? They are basically saying Comey/Mueller engaged in a systemic effort to enable sexual harrassment at the FBI. It's not credible but does it matter?

there are enough RWers at the FBI that some would be willing to support this accusation that it was not a good atmosphere for women.

After all, if they're holding the anonymous accusers to the same high standard as with Al Franken, what are they waiting for?

Who are sick of being sexually assaulted, harassed and demeaned and then being blamed for it.
