The Brian Lehrer Show | May 10, 2017
David Sanger, chief Washington correspondent for The New York Times, reports on President Trump's firing of FBI Director James Comey, and then Jerrold Nadler, U.S. Representative (NY-10), weighs in and callers share their thoughts.
"The White House thought the cascade of Democrats criticizing Comey shielded them from backlash of firing Comey," says @SangerNYT.

"The investigated fired the investigator and that’s going to cause a real crisis of confidence," says @RepJerryNadler.

@RepJerryNadler cites that President Trump has fired Sally Yates, Preet Bharara and now James Comey as an effort to "thwart investigation." https://t.co/FTWR5zGlFX
