Anxious to see FBI Director James Comey retire? According to the man himself, you're going to have to wait:
The FBI director has no plans to leave the post before the end of his 10-year term. "You're stuck with me for about 6 1/2 years," James Comey said at a cyber conference in Boston on Wednesday, urging conference organizers to invite him to speak again.
In recent days, NPR and other news outlets have reported Comey pressed the Justice Department without success to issue a public denial of President Trump's tweet that the FBI and President Barack Obama wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said this week that Trump still has confidence in Comey's ability to lead the FBI. Comey, who served as deputy U.S. attorney general under President George W. Bush and who was named FBI director by Obama, has demonstrated a nearly unique ability to draw critics from both ends of the political spectrum.

It's not that I think he's done even a half decent job, or kept away from politics, or followed the law. It's just that judging from the other appointments his likely replacement would be worse.

I'm not sure they could get worse, and if they can I welcome it!! This implosion of government might just be what we need to wake people the fuck up. Especially the people who work for these agencies...

And put in a real patriot, Rudy Guiliani [crooksandliars.com]!
He'd certainly fit right in.
