Comey to teach ethical leadership course at College of William & Mary
Source: Politico
Former FBI Director James Comey is joining the faculty at his alma mater, the College of William & Mary, and will teach a course on ethical leadership starting this fall, the school announced Friday morning.
I am thrilled to have the chance to engage with William & Mary students about a vital topic ethical leadership, Comey said in a statement. Ethical leaders lead by seeing above the short term, above the urgent or the partisan, and with a higher loyalty to lasting values, most importantly to the truth.
Building and maintaining that kind of leadership, in both the private sector and government, is the challenge of our time, Comey said. There is no better place to teach and learn about it than the W&M Washington Program.
Comey was dismissed from his role at the FBI in May 2017, at the start of an investigation into the possible collusion between the Trump administration and Russia to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. The Russia probe is now spearheaded by special counsel Robert Mueller.

As ironic as it can get.

(23,159 posts)The way he acted with regard to Clinton is totally unethical, calling her very careless with classified information when that was absolutely not the truth. I'm glad he stood up to drumpf, but he is no paragon of virtue. Clinton would have won if he hadn't deliberately thrown the race to drumpf by coming up with that bogus lie just before the election.

(58,785 posts)We all know he used his power as director of the FBI to throw the election to the Republicans. We know he did it fully aware that Putin was doing the same thing.
Details of possible derelictions of duty, violations of duty, etc. are not investigated. Just one for instance, the DNC did not know the Russians were in their computers while the FBI watched for weeks.
We don't know if if Comey was colluding with others, and I am suspecting American right-wing blocs, through the election years. But possible involvement of the head of the FBI in seditious activities, and possibly treason, needs to be ruled out.
And just think what a great educational opportunity that would be for students.

There is still much to be revealed about all aspects of traitorous Russo-American activities during 2015 and 2016. I predict this will be one of those as-yet-unrevealed stories.
I've seen nothing to change my opinion that Comey got torpedoed by a cadre of FBI NYC Field Office traitors. I still think the man was one of the most ethical people in American public service. The only one who definitely stands above him is Bobby Three-Sticks.
