In a last-minute effort to save Hillary Clinton’s bid for the White House, Barack Obama’s chief adviser, Valerie Jarrett, has urged the president to fire FBI Director James Comey, according to a source close to Jarrett.

Obama and Jarrett are furious with Comey for reopening the FBI’s investigation of Hillary’s emails just 11 days before the presidential election. They blame Comey for Hillary’s alarming slide in the polls.

“Valerie argued that Comey was interfering deliberately in the election process and had to be stopped,” the source said. “The president said he was worried about the consequences of taking such an action — the tsunami of outrage that would come his way, and possibly become a major footnote, or worse, in the history of his presidency.

Obie and the Lizard Woman can pound sand as far as I am concerned.

And there is a very good reason they want Comey out.

Obama is distancing himself as fast as he can from the scourge of the wikleaks because his fingerprints are all over them and Comey is shining a beacon spotlight all over them.

Obama is sweating.  Not as much as Hillary just yet, but give it just a few more hours.
