James Comey’s dismissal reeks of Russian coverup

- LETTERS LETTERS@USATODAY.COM

President Trump’s firing of FBI Director

James Comey for his “unfair” treatment of Hillary Clinton’s case could be a smokescree­n. He may have just wanted to remove Comey because he was leading an investigat­ion to determine whether Trump’s campaign associates conspired with Russia to interfere with the U.S. presidenti­al election. Whatever the reason may be for Comey’s dismissal, it is indeed a “ding-dong the witch is dead” moment for Hillary Clinton. JoAnn Lee Frank Clearwater, Fla.

With the firing of FBI Director Comey in the

middle of an investigat­ion of Russian connection­s with President Trump’s campaign, has the president crossed the line into obstructio­n of justice? If so, we may be seeing the seeds for impeachmen­t of Trump. Robert Tormey Escondido, Calif.
