I want to know why Trump felt now was the time to fire Comey.

This is going to hurt Trump imo. It's so blatant, especially after his twitter meltdown yesterday....there will be hell to pay.

The only thing Obama ever did for me was save my life.

Sally Yates is absolutely adorable. Thought she came off really good today. Trump, as usually, giant douche bag.

She did a great job. Trump's twitter account went into hyperspace today over this.

There were quite a few important things that came to light today. One of which was that multiple foreign (European) intelligence agencies warned the US about Trump's involvement with the Russians prior. We also learned that Obama warned Trump of Flynn, that he may be compromised, yet Trump hired him anyway. Even after Yates warned the new administration of Flynn's issues, it took an article from the Washington Post to finally let him go.

  Russia didn't make her avoid Wisconsin, Michigan or anywhere in PA outside of Philly.

First of all, she barely lost those states in the EC.

Secondly, Russians used data from their hacking expeditions to pinpoint specific demographics (ie, those rustbelt states) and then blast them with fake news, and fake social media accounts. Russia absolutely played a role, without a doubt.

It's interesting to me that the Russian hackers didn't have the same influence on French voters as they did on our voters.

They tried.

There is speculation that Macron may have been prepared for this:

Did Macron Outsmart Campaign Hackers?

While it's still too early to tell, so far the big document dump by hackers of the Macron campaign has not been damaging.
