In 2004 James Comey was the Deputy AG who was named Acting AG while AG John Ashcroft was hospitalized.

In his capacity as Acting AG, Comey refused to sign off on GWB's warrantless wiretapping program because he felt it was unlawful and unconstitutional.

Ashcroft, and the head of the FBI at the time backed Comey, and all three threatened to resign in protest.

Bush had no choice but to back down.

No one was fired.

What has that to do with Comey violating his position by shooting off his mouth usurping the role of prosecutors?? Also what has that to do with his two immediate supervisors deciding he is incompetent?? You keep ignoring the fact that he was fired for cause. Get your head out of the sand and look at what actually happened!!! His mouth and actions got him fired and you choose to ignore that fact!!! Why???? There also is the fact that your biased irresponsible hatred of Trump makes you blind to reality about him.
