I get that Republicans must support their party leader, but come on... Saying the public needs to "suck it up and move on" is terrible. There needs to be an investigation and reasoning found behind his firing. The government must be held accountable to it's actions. Without being held accountable, the government can do whatever it wants and is basically a dictatorship.

I'm not going to act like electoral colleges are fair, but if we do voting based on numbers, that is also not fair. 2nd, we live in a republic.
Doesn't it seem funny that Trump fired the guy who was, at least partially, to thank for his win? I don't know, it just seems a little odd to me.

Yet Trump fires Comey for being too tough on her all of a sudden and you want to call out the Democrats for being hipocrites. So in your mind Liberal Democrats have corner the market on being hypocrital. Hmm? 😕

love the haircut + tshirt serial killer combo look
I would recommend now to get the balance in the news you should go watch" still report number 1618" it will explain the letter written by the man who recommended terminating the director ...
the guy gives me nightmares
Do one on the Census Director quitting.
Basically everyone is a hypocrite.
just to let you guys know, there was a us general on BBC radio 4 that explains all, oh and its a US general. Maybe you shoul listern and use the interview in a redo of this vid.
what's the role of the FBI director? sounds like firing Comey isn't really going to stop the FBI from investigate trump's relation with russia, so i don't understand what trump thinks this firing will do to impede on the FBI investigation.
Love VMs video production, reporting, writing etc., but whats the deal with the scan line overlay? Is it necessary? Many of the recent clips included in the video are of no better quality than the archived footage and I doubt most people need an additional reminder of it's age. Why not leave it unaltered? If anything it's easier to look at, at least to my brain.
I’ve always wondered what happened to Fred from old KZread. I never would have guessed he was now Vox’s senior political analyst.
No mention of whom suggested for Comey for resign nor the letter that was sent to him?
Well if he couldn't find a reason to charge Hilary, then he would definitely not find a thing on Trump.
Probably sponsoring his show the apprentice
I find dismissals necessary in cases where there is no confidence in the ability to continue the job duties or have violated the office by using power to aid him or herself or others.
Question: what's up with the emails. I just wanted to be informed on what was so bad about the emails. Can I legally delete emails. Please answer
