More misleading reporting seeped out of the mainstream media today. A week after Donald Trump fired James Comey, the New York Times published information about a supposed memo Comey had written previous to his termination. As reported, the memorandum suggested that Trump asked the FBI to halt the investigation into former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
If that were the case, Trump’s critics would have a decent argument of obstruction of justice. But as is always the case with the left-wing media, the headlines don’t quite match up with the facts.
Trump didn’t ask Comey to stop investigating Flynn. Instead, his quote, which was included in the New York Times’ piece, was much less objectionable. Of course, that didn’t stop them from pushing a misleading headline — and in news, few people see past the words at the top of the page.

See what Trump said to Comey on the next page:
It’s so glaringly obvious…..National Security experts say that the POTUS asking for some lenience from the FBI toward Flynn was obstruction. Did the President demand that the FBI back off? No. But the experts at the N.Y. Times & the Washington Post seem to think that they know everything there is about national security. They sure learned a lot over the span of a year or so. They did not think it was an offense of any kind when Hillary Clinton did all the things she did against this country FOR 4 YEARS as S.O.S. They also did not seem to think it was a big deal at all when Obastard said, more than once, that Hillary had done nothing wrong & had not put our national security in danger. Was HE obstructing justice? Sounds to me like he was.
Huge Lie! They never stop their lying attacks! But we the people understand what’s going on and simply ignore all their garbage! That’s why Trump was elected, we the people know the truth!
And Hillary didn’t…
BS
News media spreading more lies!
