Given the accuracy of the NYTimes leaks it looks very likely it was Corney himself who leaked it to them. There were only two people in the room and only one person who knew that Corney would put in his statement - himself. If it was Corney it was someone close to him.
I don't see see how 'they' broke the law though. Corney's statements aren't classified.

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

The FBI Director should be non-partisan and his loyalty is to his office not the President.
That said the statement seems to reveal more of Trump's ego than it shows obstruction IMO.

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.

Of course but then so are the Republicans. If Clinton had won the election and fired Corney whilst he was still investigating the e-mails do you think that wouldn't have been a big scandal?

Comey just admitted he leaked the contents of his notes!
