Watergate, which also occurred in June exactly 45 years ago, fades away.
On Thursday, bars in many US cities broadcast live hearings in the Senate with James Komi.
Since the hearings were scheduled for 10 am local time, on that occasion the bars opened earlier than usual and offered their guests branded cocktails Covfefe, KGB with kalua, ginger and brandy, Impeachment with peach schnapps and mint liqueur, poured vodka five Dollars, served sandwiches "FBI", as well as the morning "Komi-coffee".
Characteristically, not a single tweet from Trump before the hearing began. Hidden.
"Do you have any doubts that Russia tried to interfere in the elections?".
"No," answered James Komi.
"Do you have any doubts that Russia is behind the invasion of the files of voters?".
"No," replied the Komi.
Komi stated that he began to keep notes of his private conversations with Trump, since he decided that later he could use them "not only for his defense, but also for the defense of the FBI".
James Komi at the hearings on the US Senate Intelligence Committee directly accused Donald Trump of lying and slandering the FBI, stressing that Trump slandered the FBI and himself, claiming that the bureau was not coping with its work: "It was a lie, direct and simple" , - Komi summed up.
According to Komi, Trump's explanation about the reasons for his dismissal embarrassed him, since the president had repeatedly assured him that he was doing an excellent job:.
"I was very much embarrassed when I learned from TV news that the president fired me because of an investigation involving Russia. It seemed to me pointless ".
Komi stressed that his dismissal was connected with this investigation:.
"Yes, I think so, because I saw how the president talked about this on television".
During the hearings, Komi also said that "at least several hundred, and perhaps thousands of organizations in the US were attacked by Russian hackers during the presidential election campaign".
According to him, he learned about the massive attempts of hacking hackers connected with Russia in late summer 2015:.
"It was a massive campaign, the goals of which were government, government-close and non-governmental organizations".
Answering the questions, James Komi stressed that "Russia's interference in the presidential elections was a long-term, strategic policy".
The US intelligence services accuse Russia of organizing a campaign to intervene in the election of the US president, some of which were cyber attacks, as confirmed by James Komi during the hearings.
In fact, James Komi on Thursday launched the Trump impeachment procedure.
Komi was beyond praise. He put on a crown of thorns, a weak, truth-telling.
This is what will do the "cool" pepper Trump.
In time to get out of the game can only great masters, to whom Trump clearly does not belong.
In the diagram: Americans are more likely to trust James Komi about the Russian intervention in the presidential election than Donald Trump.
