In his first TV interview since the Mueller report was released, former FBI Director James Comey told CBS News Wednesday morning that he disagrees with Attorney General William Barr, who thinks that "spying did occur" on the Trump campaign. "Yeah, I have no idea what he´s talking about," Comey said. "The FBI doesn´t spy. The FBI investigates. We investigated a very serious allegation that Americans might be hooked up with the Russian effort to attack our democracy. The Republicans need to breathe into a paper bag. “If we had confronted the same facts with a different candidate, say, a Democratic candidate

“.....a very serious allegation...”. From whom? Obama? Susan Rice? Nellie Ohr? Strzok and Page when they weren’t texting and sexting? Speaking of which, Hillary and Huma?
Since Comey has publically stated that there was an allegation that someone in Trump’s campaign “hooked up to the Russian effort”, there has to be a paper trail of the accusation and not just Comey’s usually false comment to fawning CBS interviewers. Will AG Barr look for this “predicate”?
As to CBS bootlicks, “None of the three CBS anchors asked Comey about the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation -- the Steele dossier, the apparent attempt to set up George Papadopoulos, and the FISA warrant on Carter Page – all of which happened on Comey’s watch and all of which Attorney General Barr is now looking into.”

Of course they spy.. they have paid under-cover informants who spy on the inside of operations being investigated. They´re spying. What the heck? Does Comey think we´re stoopit!?

Noooo. And the FBI doesn’t use trumped-up charges to surround and kill American citizens either. Uhh, Ruby Ridge and Waco Texas notwithstanding.

I think Comey is the one who needs to breathe into a paper bag. And I bet he is.

I thought someone named Comey signed off on a FISA warrant to spy on Carter Page.

The FBI has been stinking corrupt for decades now. They need a thorough cleansing from top to the bottom. Maybe the first thing is to get rid of the form 302, the one that allows the agent to lie and color a case in any way he/she wants to do so.

Comey would be better served by quieting down, getting off his soapbox...

They tap phones. They set people up for crimes they didn´t commit. They frame people. They perform perjury traps when they can´t get you for anything else. They blackmail people into committing perjury against other innocent people. They take innocent circumstances, without the whole story and trash their victims. Then they use that information to lie to judges to obtain warrants to make it all look legal. They withhold exculpatory evidence. They find out information and pass it along to reporters and political opponents.
Thank God they don´t spy.

Comey doesn´t realize it but he just admitted that in fact this investigation was PARTISAN. Why do only REPUBLICANS need to breathe into a paper bag?
Why not EVERYONE, Jim? Hmmmm?

Both Comey and Brennan are running scared. They know what they did. They know who they did it with. They know what is coming. Both will likely be wearing Orange before the end of the year.

Sorry Jimmy yea you did. And don´t think by inventing a different term for spying that you didn´t spy and are not now telling a lie.

Didn´t the New York Times say they did? Or is this just semantics, like the meaning of "is?"

When you wiretap someone´s phone, when you hack into someone´s computer, when you obtain a person´s contacts, all of those things are spying, plain and simple. Ask James Rosen if he was spied on? Ask Sharyl Atchison is she was spied on? Both will tell you the FBI spied on them. No one has been held accountable for it either. How many other Americans did the Obama justice dept. spy on without warrants, huh Jim?

Mr. Comey really needs to be in prison. And, despite his BS semantic games, Yes, the FBI did spy on candidate Trump and on President Trump.
And they did it criminally, fraudulently, with malice aforethought, and in collusion with the CIA and the DoJ.
Prison cells for all of them.

So, why didn´t you advise the candidate that low-level campaign workers, may be infiltrating the campaign?
And, when exactly did you start this investigation, Jim?

#15, not they do not "tap phones". That is not needed today.
ALL phone calls are effectively "tapped" and stored. The actual voice content is REPORTEDLY (might even be true) kept by the service providers and requires a court order to hear (or corruption), and the NSA ´only´ keeps the ´which phone called which phone, when and how long´ info.
Then, even after the fact, the NSA database of all emails, all phone calls, all internet posts (even this one) is searchable by ´properly authorized investigators´ - or any Dem political hack who worked for Obama.

This overgrown dwarf has lied for decades. He would not know the truth if it hit him in the face.
Frothing at the mouth with his pomposity you should go back and check out what he did for Lockheed and how well he was paid off.
