EXCLUSIVE: Kelly called Comey to express anger over firing, sources say
Shimon Prokupecz

Washington (CNN)New White House chief of staff John Kelly was so upset with how President Donald Trump handled the firing of FBI Director James Comey that Kelly called Comey afterward and said he was considering resigning, according to two sources familiar with a conversation between Kelly and Comey.

Both sources cautioned that it was unclear how serious Kelly, then the secretary of homeland security, was about resigning himself.
"John was angry and hurt by what he saw and the way (Comey) was treated," one of the sources said.

Comey learned of his dismissal on May 9 from televisions tuned to the news as he was addressing the workforce at the FBI office in Los Angeles, law enforcement sources said at the time. Comey made a joke about it to lighten the mood and called his office to get confirmation.

Comey, who took Kelly's call while traveling back from Los Angeles to Washington, responded to Kelly by telling him not to resign, one of the sources said.

The sources said Comey and Kelly are not close friends but that they had a professional relationship and a deep mutual respect for each other.

Comey declined to comment for this story. The White House and the Department of Homeland Security have not responded to requests for comment.

Trump announced Friday that Kelly would replace Reince Priebus as chief of staff, the latest in a series of staff moves aiming to reset the White House's communications and agenda efforts.

A permanent replacement for Comey as FBI director is expected soon when the full Senate votes on the nomination of Christopher Wray, who cleared the judiciary committee with unanimous support.

my brother and i think Trump has been too clever for his own good. he has surrounded himself with military men. one consequence of this is that he is surrounded by MILITARY MEN. Men of HIGH Integrity. Men who have fought for this country. MEN WHO DON'T PUT UP WITH FOOLS. if these guys smell something bad they will fix it.

I think he thinks he's surrounding himself like Putin or Kim gives him protection when I'm sure all of those generals think he's man boy

Fake news from the leader of that tabloid garbage.

"according to two sources familiar with a conversation between Kelly and Comey"

For over a year every "bombshell" report from the corrupt liberal media has never had an actual source,, a document or any evidence yet.
The discredited Fake news (formally known as CNN) Nielsen ratings are circling the drain but the lefties actually believe their crap.

Suckers.

???? Are you really that out of touch with how the Media gets its information. Just like the police use informants...so does the media....that doesn't make it fake that protects people from people like you doing violence to them because they shine the light on what you'd prefer to be left in the dark...

Grow up open your eyes...Why would you protect Donald Trump when you can have a real Republican in the office if he's removed. The man isn't qualified...Being a loud @$$hole doesn't take any intelligence...

Coming from a loser I'll give your post it's due and flush it down the toilet.

No actual sources, no documents, no evidence shows a clear pattern of lying to advance their political agenda.
Or are you that f'n stupid you can understand corruption when it is clear?

Not to worry son.
You have plenty of other losers here to cry with.

No, you missed his point. As long as you are talking, we are hearing from a loudmouth. YOU , and only you, need to STFU.

Hope this helps, but I am not optimistic.

Since the leaks have slowed to a dribble its time to make things up I guess. Looking back, Ivanka, Jared, Eric, Don Jr, Pres. Trump, Spicer, Barron, and Melania were beaten up pretty badly in the press. All except for one person who I dont recall reading anything negative about. I guess appearing on CNN first confirmed for me.

I hope President Trumps Senior ops team finds the stability they need to focus on the agenda now.

Yes, stability is surely needed and missed in that dump. Thanks for clarifying that. Also, I'd like to point out and save this quote from Mule. Here he acknowledges that he is indeed a "loud a$$hole".

if you don't like hearing from "a loud @$$hole" then just STFU son.

How bout that? Goober admits Trump built an unstable White House, and Mule calls himself a loud a$$hole, all in the same thread!
