* Mueller has notes from Reince Priebus that show Trump told his then COS that he wanted Comey to publicly clear him.

It's just my opinion, man. It's not like me and Jeff are buds, but we have spoken. My take is that he will do what he thinks is right even though I personally think he is wrong on many things."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

SLF.
I think he is deserving of respect and regard in that he acts consistant with his beliefs and is not one to acquiesce to authority even though that path would be much easier for him.
Your mileage may vary.
I used the term honorable. If that doesn't meet the criteria of your own lexicon, please feel free to replace with the word of your choosing."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

Great. Great news, the president didn't obstruct justice when firing Comey. Lets look at the actual obstruction laws
1. 18 USC 1503:*This ?omnibus? clause covers ?corruptly or?by any threatening letter or communication influenc[ing], or imped[ing] or endeavor[ing[ to influence, obstruct, or impede, the due administration of justice.?
But the clause also requires a pending judicial proceeding ? and as far as we are all aware, there is none. Furthermore, the Supreme Court is quite exacting on the application of this law ? a prosecutor would need to prove that Trump?s conduct materially impeded the investigation, which even Comey has said didn?t happen.
2. 18 USC 1512(c):*This provision of law covers anyone who ?obstructs, influences, or impedes an official proceeding, or attempts to do so.?
It is not clear that an FBI investigation is an ?official proceeding,? and proving intent is difficult in any case. And it?s not enough to show intent to violate the subsection ? you have to take a ?substantial step toward the accomplishment of that goal.?
3. 18 USC 1519:*This provision covers destroying evidence related to a federal investigation.
There are no accusations that Trump destroyed evidence. Unless Trump had tapes and destroyed them, the statue simply doesn?t apply.
So... what do you got on a collusion charge?

I kept getting registrations sent to my work address with two different spellings of my first name and one different middle initial. And my actual registration. It was 2004 - Kerry could have had an extra 3 votes.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
