We are once again reminded that the President of the United States knows things we don\u2019t know.\u00a0 Most people ignored a public comment by Donald Trump recently:<\/p>\n

\u201coh, well, did he fight back?\u00a0 You fight back, Oh it\u2019s obstruction.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I watched a panel on CNN, accidently, for about five minutes while working out at the club.\u00a0 I learned about this comment by Trump from Jeffrey Tobin.\u00a0 Tobin has been one of the fiercest critics of Trump.\u00a0 In May 2017, Tobin exploded with outrage because Trump fired James Comey:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/trump-says-he-would-speak-to-mueller-under-oath-in-russia-investigation\/2018\/01\/24\/edb33750-015a-11e8-8acf-ad2991367d9d_story.html?utm_term=.5eb39bbcb926<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201ca grotesque abuse of power by the president of the United States.\u00a0 This is the kind of thing that goes on in non-democracies.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Last night Tobin was clearly shocked when he reflected on this comment by Trump.\u00a0 It was like he understood, for the first time, that Trump has a legitimate point.\u00a0 The liberal left is quick to believe anything that fits within their narrative.\u00a0 In May 2017, James Comey was the shining knight trying to deal with an irresponsible president.\u00a0 Tobin probably believed there had been collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.\u00a0 Today, even Jeffrey Tobin would not attempt to defend that narrative.\u00a0 Instead Tobin is confronted with mounting evidence that James Comey was Director of an FBI that was trying to overthrow a U.S. President.\u00a0 The only real question is whether Comey was complicit or was\u00a0merely incompetent.\u00a0 All the things being documented by the numerous investigations took place while Comey was in charge.\u00a0 Trump not only had a right to fire Comey, he may have had a duty to fire Comey.<\/p>\n

We do not know what information Trump\u00a0had available when he fired Comey.\u00a0 He only mentioned the letters from Rosenstein and Sessions supporting his decision. \u00a0There is a lot we don\u2019t know and a lot we will never.\u00a0 We do know this.\u00a0 Trump said he was justified because he was fighting back.\u00a0 He said he was looking forward to talking, under oath, with Robert Mueller. In most cases, this type of interview is a perjury trap because the Special Counsel knows things you don\u2019t know.\u00a0 But this time the opposite may be true.\u00a0 Trump may know things that Mueller doesn\u2019t know.\u00a0 He may have documentation Mueller has never seen.<\/p>\n

We know that the FBI is desperately pleading to see the memo from Nunes.\u00a0 This means the FBI does NOT <\/strong>know what information is in those House Intelligence Committee files.\u00a0 Assistant Attorney General Stephan Boyd said: \u201cIndeed, we do not understand why the committee would possibly seek to disclose classified and law enforcement sensitive information without first consulting with the relevant members of the intelligence community.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The response from the House Intelligence committee was that they cannot trust the FBI.\u00a0 The FBI has been stonewalling congress on numerous requests for documents for months and just recently said they had accidentally failed to preserve thousands of critical text messages. \u00a0If news reports are accurate, someone found those messages almost instantly when Attorney General Jeff Sessions ordered an investigation.<\/p>\n

The are always three sides to every political story.\u00a0 The Republican version of events, the Democratic version of events, and the truth.\u00a0 This time we know who is trying to release information and who is trying to block the release of information.\u00a0 That should be a gigantic hint over who has facts supporting their case and who does not.<\/p>\n
