Well, when you report things on time you get fired anyway and painted as a disgruntled employee. I would suspect the timing is all in the relationships. All Comey would have to say is "I was following Trump's orders" and most people would think that's just fine, right?

If it was a sting, he really shouldn't be casually talking about it over lunch.
Sting is probably not the right word, but it makes no sense to resign if you have concerns. If you think Trump could compromise the next FBI head, resigning is the last thing you do.
I do think Wittes is underselling his relationship with Comey though. Which makes me wary.

Not familiar with Crowder. He comes off like a dickhead.
I like Ben however, and his analysis isn't bad, but if the vultures are in fact circling Kushner, it becomes harder to buy Trump was only thinking of himself.

The counter-swipe to the Russia "email" is interesting.
"Doesn't matter that it's fake. If it leaked, the damage would be done."
I don't necessarily disagree, but it says something the system can get subverted to this extent just by making some shit up.
It's a symptom of the political climate. Which is to say our democracy wouldn't be so vulnerable if we hadn't been so busy painting each side as evil incarnate for the past 25 years.

A nonprofit issues group is labeling James Comey a political “showboat” in a television ad set to air Thursday, the day the former FBI director testifies on Capitol Hill.
Channeling my inner Lenin, people have too much damn money when they're spending it to attack non-elected officials just for testifying in front of congress.
Prediction: Yet another nothing burger, but leaving enough crumbs to keep the conspiracy theorists engaged.

That's different. But yes Wittes outspokenness has been irking me. Simplest answer is hes using the opportunity to get traffic to his blog but otherwise i am suspicious of his motives.

I certainly wouldn't take it as gospel, and Wittes bothers me as well, but the article fits with the lack of dirt.
I'm not sure how much it matters, but I feel obligated to note this particular article wasn't written by Wittes.
