Lieberman emerges as front-runner for FBI post
Joe Lieberman, the former Democratic vice-presidential nominee, is the front-runner to be named FBI director, according to several White House officials and advisers.
Senior administration officials have told others in the last 12 hours that Trump is expected to pick Lieberman to replace FBI director James Comey, who was abruptly fired by Trump last week.
A person familiar with Wednesday’s meeting said Trump bonded with Lieberman, and the president left leaning towards the former Connecticut senator, who retired in 2013. Trump has not signaled otherwise that anyone else is the favorite, aides said, and has told one adviser he wants to make an announcement before he leaves Friday on his first foreign trip.
Trump told reporters Thursday afternoon “we’re very close to an FBI director” and that the pick would be announced soon. When asked whether Lieberman was among the finalists, he replied yes.

Gotta hand it to him. Trump’s gonna get even no matter what. He drops…or at least threatens to drop… this double/triple agent Dem who has always known on which side his own personal bread is buttered on the FBI and then steps onto Air Force One and flies away.
Can you imagine what a nasty little hustler like this could do to the FBI???!!! First of all, if there any honest and intelligent people left in the FBI they would all tender their resignations and get out while the getting is good. Meanwhile, Lieberman would hustle, tunnel and politic his way into making the FBI totally useless in any political investigation. Trump didn’t even need to ask for Lieberman’s personal loyalty. He was probably too busy trying to fend him off from unzipping the presidential pants even before coffee was served.
Joe Lieberman.
I thought we were through with him.
But NOOOOOoooo…
Here he is again, as groveling and two-faced as he was when he last disappeared.
Disgusting!!!
AG
P.S. I’ll bet he tied his red tie too long just to impress The Man.
