Comey sends farewell letter to select FBI staff - Matt_Crimson - 05-11-2017

(CNN) Former FBI Director James Comey, who was fired Tuesday by President Donald Trump, on Wednesday sent a letter to select FBI staff, friends and agents. Here is the text of that letter, which was obtained by CNN.
To all:
I have long believed that a President can fire an FBI Director for any reason, or for no reason at all. I'm not going to spend time on the decision or the way it was executed. I hope you won't either. It is done, and I will be fine, although I will miss you and the mission deeply.
I have said to you before that, in times of turbulence, the American people should see the FBI as a rock of competence, honesty, and independence. What makes leaving the FBI hard is the nature and quality of its people, who together make it that rock for America.
It is very hard to leave a group of people who are committed only to doing the right thing. My hope is that you will continue to live our values and the mission of protecting the American people and upholding the Constitution.
If you do that, you too will be sad when you leave, and the American people will be safer.
Working with you has been one of the great joys of my life. Thank you for that gift.
Jim Comey

I was thinking, "Now it's time to go make some money." Same thing.

Would've been more concise to say "I went after Clinton because I thought she would get rid of me. Lol, comey out!!1!!"

I thought we were supposed to move beyond all of this Comey non-sense. Why does anybody care everybody hated him? Motives don't matter the only thing that matters is who is next? Just one foot in front of the other.
