Former FBI Director James Comey will testify this Thursday in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Comey was fired last month by President Trump, and the hearing will ask why? Some speculate that Comey was pushing too hard on the Russia investigation and Trump wanted to get rid of him. Trump says Comey simply was not doing a good job. The answers at this hearing will shed some light on why Comey was fired, what the progress is on any investigations into ties with Russia, and if Trump was aware of any wrongdoing during the election process.
Comey has claimed that Trump told him to back off of a Russia investigation and that Trump repeatedly asked if he was under investigation. Comey would even try to hide from Trump to avoid having to talk about the investigation. Hopefully, the hearing will clear up more about the investigations and Comey’s interactions with the President. Tune in Thursday at 10 AM Eastern to ABC, CBS, and NBC to watch the testimony.
