But this is circumstantial evidence. However clear the logic of it, direct evidence will be needed to make impeachment stick. So Schumer is a little premature. Right, but premature.

Cover up of what???? Comey has indicated to Trump a number of times that Trump is not the target of any investigation. And wishing doesn't make it so.

Not true. On March 20, Comey said under oath:

I have been authorized by the Department of Justice to confirm that the FBI, as part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia's efforts.


Last time I checked, Trump was associated with the Trump campaign.

...and Comey confirmed to Trump that Trump was not one of the individuals under investigation.

See? That wasn't that hard.

Nobody other than Trump has made that claim, including Comey. Your willingness to believe everything Trump, the most dishonest person ever to grace the American political stage, claims says a lot about your gullibility and aversion to reality and facts when it comes to all things Trump.

I remember you going out of your way to assert that it was "fake news" that the Trump/Russia connection was being investigated and later that it was also "fake news" that all the intelligence agencies agreed that Russia's efforts were intended to hurt Hillary and help Trump.

You seem to be trying to set yourself up as the Sean Spicer of this board, now that Kellyanne Conway has crawled back under her rock. Well, whaddya know? Your gal Kellyanne just peaked out from under her rock and said:

Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Trump, said in a combative television interview Wednesday morning that it is “inappropriate” to question the timing of Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James B. Comey.

Kinda like yer boy saying that Trump will not be questioned. I hope you like the company you keep, Whell.

Acting FBI director said under oath this morning he was not aware of this, and experts say it would be "highly unusual" for the FBI director to say any such thing during an ongoing investigation. IOW, it's just another in a long, long string of Trump lies. If you believe anything Trump says at this point, you are a complete fool. But we already knew that.

Trump told Sessions, in effect ~I want to fire Comey right now. Write me up some acceptable reasons.~

Anybody not corrupted or mentally enslaved by Trump knows what the real reason was.

What irony that trump was calling to throw crooked Hillary in jail....deflection anyone?

He's going to have the same problem Nixon had--you can't fire the senate.

Fortunately, with it's non-gerrymandered statewide districts, the Senate is not a dirty as the House.

This country is very close to a completion of the testing of it's Democracy, if not already finished. We shall see just how deep the love of absolute power verses truth and the will of the people in these current times.

Perhaps Watergate II could prevent us from Worldwar III...
