This is nothing like what we heard at the White House press briefing this week.
President Obama appears to have thrown James Comey under the bus after promising he wouldn’t be “meddling” in the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton’s emails.

“Well, you know, I’ve made a very deliberate effort to make sure that I don’t look like I’m meddling in what are supposed to be independent processes for making these assessments,” the president told NowThis News in an interview published Wednesday marking his first public comments since Comey announced a new review of information connected to Clinton.

.@CNN reporting that President Obama says Comey is guilty of innuendo and releasing incomplete information…and criticizes leaks from FBI.

Do you really want to go there Mr. President? https://t.co/KAgkmlV03i

“I do think that there is a norm that when there are investigations, we don’t operate on innuendo,” Obama said, just days after the White House said he would defend Comey’s integrity.
So much for the White House remaining “neutral”. https://t.co/AmG1hv0MZv

I’m old enough to remember when the White House defended Comey’s integrity.
Was that just Monday?https://t.co/KP1wDjzg87 https://t.co/JDxfW0zw8R

@Neoavatara @PardesSeleh There are so many twists, I can’t keep up.

@KirstenPowers @CNN If so, POTUS needs to make up his mind. He previously said FBI and Comey just doing their jobs.

With Election Day looming, the president is now singing a different tune in a complete lack of self-awareness.
The same Obama who declared before the FBI investigation concluded that Clinton emails didnt harm national security? https://t.co/R2mqcfzKcZ

@dryheevz @thehill Let’s not forget his inaugural glory with ‘the police acting stupidly’ ending in ‘the beer summit’ UGGGH!

@stephenfhayes has anyone asked Obama abt all this on HIS watch, HIS Admin, His SoS, His AG, His DOJ? How He get a pass for such corruption?
— mcbob (@mcbob) November 2, 2016
@thehill We do however, break open sealed divorce records and get Harry Reid to make up lies about my opponents. Oh, and use the IRS.

@KirstenPowers @allahpundit @CNN this is a guy who politicized the IRS lecturing others for politicizing the agencies. LOL, nope.

Twitter users were also happy to educate Obama on the correct meaning of the word “innuendo.”
Did the president mention that the complete information was destroyed by Hillary Clinton? https://t.co/NSQ0fkaoEw

We don’t exactly consider #Wikileaks #PodestaEmails or FBI files obtained via FOIA innuendo!!! https://t.co/WLwx4H8yPB

@Holden114 @redsteeze He’s right. The Democrats operate on straight up lies.
