Trump: Yates either lying or grossly incompetent

Source: The Hill

“It is not possible she could have known so little about Dirty Cop James Comey (and others) from her high position in the Department of 'Justice,'" the president tweeted early Thursday. “The political Crime of the Century, and she had no idea what they were doing?”

Yates told the committee that the FBI, under the leadership of then-Director James Comey, in January 2017 interviewed incoming national security adviser Michael Flynn without her authorization or advanced knowledge.

LYING AND INCOMPETENCE on his mantle right now is always accusing others of lying and incompetence. That’s why he’s the champion.

Yes, Donald, your mal-administration has been the worst political crime of the past 75 years.

You just can't handle the truth!
