Comey was the director of a large, complex bureaucracy not the chief investigator of this or any other inquiry/investigation by the bureau.

The investigation is ongoing and is not now suddenly delayed or derailed or diluted by a change of directors.

The one sure way to ensure impeachment proceedings would be if president Trump were now to interfere in any way with this investigation and he and his team understand this.

And if you think Washington leaks now, just wait if Trump were to be stupid enough to interfere in FBI probes.

Being fire proof by using the specious excuse of an interminable investigation may be convenient to Comey but it is inconvenient to the president, the AG and most GOP congressmen who want him gone and for that matter most Democratic congressmen who until this week wanted him gone too and secretly still do.

Trump is picking the senior executive team he deems most capable, reliable and trustworthy in judgement.  

The left should stop sabotaging the process.
