WASHINGTON — President Trump asked the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, to shut down the federal investigation into Mr. Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, in an Oval Office meeting in February, according to a memo that Mr. Comey wrote shortly after the meeting.

“I hope you can let this go,” the president told Mr. Comey, according to the memo.

The existence of Mr. Trump’s request is the clearest evidence that the president has tried to directly influence the Justice Department and F.B.I. investigation into links between Mr. Trump’s associates and Russia.

You should be happy:  This might push the whole "Telling the Russians classified stuff in the Oval Office" back to page B1 or something.

I'd probably start there and then slowly modify my denial as more reporting comes in and the story is confirmed piece by piece.

Well since every story we have seen in the last week from Bezos' Blog to the NYSlime has been proven wrong, or at best wildly out of context I got no problem. You on the other hand drink whatever NeverTrump Koolaide the AMC lays in front of you.

Yeah, thinking about it, you know the high ups in the DOJ cleaned Comeys office out after his firing..so how does anyone other then someone very high up have access to his "notes"... Looks more and more like made up BS...

Unless scanned copies of the memos were filed in the FBI electronic case file system.  And/or Comey emailed copies to several of his FBI senior management.  Or had someone witness them.  He's no dummy; I'm sure he documented what happened and documented it well.

Sure.  If tapes exist and they contradict Comey's memo then I'm sure they'll get released.  I would want them to get released.

Of course, if Trump was just blowing smoke about "tapes"...
