Commentary: Lieberman at FBI? Don’t Do It Donald

  by George Rasley, ConservativeHQ.com Editor President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions have been interviewing candidates to lead the FBI since the President fired Director James Comey last week. Speaking to reporters while meeting with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, Trump said he is “very close” to choosing a new FBI director to replace James Comey.

President Trump today said that he may make his decision about the new FBI Director as early as Friday,” the We the People Convention said in a statement on Thursday. Recent press reports indicate that Lieberman is currently the leading contender to replace James Comey as head of the FBI. “President Trump said Thursday that Joe Lieberman was his top choice to become FBI director, filling the slot left open after Trump fired James B. Comey, his previous FBI head, last week,” the Washington Post reported. “We trust that the rumors about extremely liberal former Senator Joe Lieberman being Trump’s top choice as the new FBI Director is just more fake news,” Zawistowski said, adding:…
