Tomorrow, former FBI Director James Comey will be testifying before the Senate Intelligence Committee. Today, he released the text of his opening remarks. This generated some very funny tweets. Here are just a few…
The Cloud, the Hookers and the Grandfather Clock is my favorite C.S. Lewis novel. https://t.co/Grsb7BeWKt

All right, this part of the testimony is a little weird. pic.twitter.com/r5Ys7id5E1

My rule for gracious living: do not bring up hookers in a conversation with the FBI director unless he asks first.

In case I need to remind you of the general rule here, if you successfully combine sports and politics, you automatically earn tweet of the day
Hell if Comey wanted to be 6'8" and invisible he should have just joined the damn Knicks.

(If that tweet doesn’t strike you as hilarious, you might need to read Benjamin Wittes recounting what James Comey told him about meeting(s) with President Trump. This was also reported in the New York Times. Oh, and the Knicks suck. Sigh.)

Today, Michael Schmidt of the New York Times published a bombshell of an article about how President Trump asked James Comey to end the investigation into Michael Flynn. In chronological order, here are some relevant tweets, both funny and serious:
Imagine hitting 548 homers, making 11 All-Star teams, winning two MVPs and going down in history as the OTHER Mike Schmidt.

If Trump follows the Watergate script any more precisely, the Nixon library will be able to sue him for plagiarism.
