→Grassley/Feinstein meeting with Comey
==Grassley/Feinstein meeting with Comey==
==Grassley/Feinstein meeting with Comey==
It's almost comical to read [http://bipartisanreport.com/2017/03/15/dianne-feinstein-emerges-from-james-comey-briefing-looking-mortified-video/ libs reviews of the Grassley/Feinstein-Comey meeting.] The truth is, this was a briefing in reverse. Comey needed advice how to handle questions on a FISA warrant for Flynn without perjuring himself in testimony before the House, which he doesn't ordinarily do. For this he turned to senior members of the Senate, respected in both parties, whom he'd worked well with over the years and there is a trusting bond. If any members of the House panel are dissatisfied with his testimony, they can turn to Grassley or Feinstein for a private briefing on the FISA law and need for secrecy. Hence, a bipartisan cover narrative is emerging, and secrecy around FISA preserved and intact.
