WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former FBI Director James Comey asked a federal judge on Thursday to quash a congressional subpoena from Republicans on the U.S. House Judiciary Committee who are trying to compel him to testify behind closed doors about his decision-making ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
The unusual filing in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia came after Comey had previously told Republican lawmakers he would only agree to testify if the hearing were open to the public.
===================================================
The Republicans are trying to use their last days in power in the House to try to destroy Comey's value as a future witness in obstruction of justice charges against Trump. Here is his answer in this court filing: “Mr. Comey asks this court’s intervention not to avoid giving testimony but to prevent the joint committee from using the pretext of a closed interview to peddle a distorted, partisan political narrative,” the filing said.

Allow Comey two hearings, one public and every question he won't answer for classified reasons have a second closed door hearing where he answers all questions. Problem solved.
Why two hearings?
My post explained that, did you not understand ??
People in public hearings simply decline to answer questions about confidential information.

Exactly, in a closed door hearing he can't refuse to answer the question short of pleading the 5th.
Why two hearings?
The Republicans are trying to play petty last minute games to try to shield the Crook-in-Chief from his just deserts.
Why two hearings?
In a closed hearing the republicans can later claim he said this and that. In a public hearing the entire world will be able to hear the TRUTH. I support Comey and Lynch's requests to have public hearings.
Why all the secrecy behind closed doors republicans???
hanger4 - like most trumpsters - want 2 hearings because if Comey refuses to answer the questions in a public hearing, they can hold a closed hearing and then falsely tell the media that comey was a liar, un patriotic , a hillary supporter blah blah blah.
It's a clever trick - but Comey is sticking to his guns.
I will have new respect for Comey if he goes public and announces that he RESIGNED from trump's republican party. And hopefully a few decent republicans (sadly there are a handful out there) will follow.
So come on Colin Powell and Ana Navarro. You still have a shred of decency. RESIGN from trump's republican party and give trump another oppportunity to go on a twitter rant.

Isn't it delicious to see all these (former) republicans turn against the republican party - all because the current republican party is putting the interests of trump before the party and definitely before the country?
History will not be kind to trump or the republicans that constantly kissed his orange butt.

Don't wet your pants now, but Comey is not Republican - he's Independent since 2016.
I didn't take a poll among all the kids, but I'm pretty sure that at least my four daughters, probably all five of my kids, wanted Hillary Clinton to be the first woman president," Comey said in an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos.
So THIS is why Nunes keeps opposing and obstructing the Mueller investigation. I guess this explains why almost ALL the republicans have been opposing and obstructing the investigation.
They are ALL in it together. Time to start measuring all the republicans for orange jump suits.
I am sure Cheney would be happy to water board his criminal mates.
