There is a 7 page testimony on Senate website on what Comey is going to say up to a point.

Nothing new so far. It backs news stories in Washington Post and New York Times. But according to some US Attorney's they are coming out and saying someone who leaked that to them could be in serious trouble, if found out who they are, as they broke the law leaking that to them.

But asking for loyalty, Trump was his boss, nothing wrong with a boss asking for loyalty.

Comey told then President-Elect Trump he was not under personal FBI Investigation.

Trump did NOT order Flynn investigation to be closed, his words were, 'I hope you can let this go, let Flynn go, he is a good guy.' The word 'hope' was used twice. Big difference between hoping for something or ordering someone to do something.

Comey has to be very careful as he could implement himself into an indictment. How can he say he thought the president was attempting to obstruct justice without incriminating himself. Him sitting on the information and not reporting a potential case of obstruction to the Senate when he is bound by the duty to report such a thing so, could see Comey in trouble himself.

Months ago, scores of Democrats wanted Comey fired, but now he has been, it's a different story. Of course scores of Democrats and liberals screaming Obstruction, impeach etc etc. But they are simply being partisan.

We should see how it plays out later today.
