[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Comey's FBI, I still have hope I can trust them after this:

The FBI rejected a recent White House request to publicly knock down media reports about communications between Donald Trump's associates and Russians known to US intelligence during the 2016 presidential campaign, multiple US officials briefed on the matter tell CNN.

[b]White House officials had sought the help of the bureau and other agencies investigating the Russia matter to say that the reports were wrong and that there had been no contacts, the officials said.[/b] The reports of the contacts were first published by The New York Times and CNN on February 14.
The direct communications between the White House and the FBI were unusual because of decade-old restrictions on such contacts. Such a request from the White House is a violation of procedures that limit communications with the FBI on pending investigations.

The clueless people at the White House probably didn't even know they weren't supposed to communicate directly with the FBI.[/quote]

The contacts in questions are between Russia and WH. 
FBI refused to say that there were none.
Can we infer that they have enough evidence to suggest that there [i]probably[/i] were?[/quote]

The contacts between Priebus and the FBI regarding an ongoing investigation are a breach of protocol and strongly suggest an effort on the part of the WH to use the FBI for a partisan political purpose.  I'm confident that Chaffetz and Issa will be issuing subpoenas any minute, right?
