Now, who is the most powerful person in the United States ? Not the United States President Donald Trump, but the FBI Director James Comey.

According to Bloomberg News reported on March 22, Komi 20 at the hearing for the first time confirmed at the hearing, the FBI is investigating the Russian government suspected of intervening in the US presidential election in 2016 allegations, the investigation began in July last year, the survey, including Trump Whether the members of the campaign team are associated with the Russian side. This means that, in a practical sense, the FBI Director Comey will decide whether the election of President Chuanpu is legal. Which makes Comey become the most powerful person in the United States.

What is the current embarrassing situation? Things have to start from the FBI start the month before the investigation. June 27, 2016, when the Minister of Justice Loretta Lynch in Arizona, Phoenix, an airport runway with Hillary Clinton's husband Bill Clinton secretly talked about 45 minutes. As the Ministry of Justice was investigating Hillary's "mail gate" incident, Lynch had to withdraw from the investigation process.

Lynch's exit allowed Comey to shoulder the dual duties of the "police" and "prosecutors". Since then, Comey first announced the findings for Hillary's "carelessness" but not enough to file a complaint, but on October 28, less than a week before the election vote, claiming that a new e-mail was found to restart the investigation. Since then, the so-called new mail has been confirmed to have nothing to do with the "mail gate" event. But Comey's actions have caused irreparable harm to Hillary's election.

After Trump came to power, the new Justice Minister Jeff Sessions was forced to withdraw from the Russian government's alleged interference in the US election because of improper ties with Russian officials. At this point, the withdrawal of two consecutive judicial ministers, making Comey in the United States has an extraordinary influence in the political arena.

Bloomberg pointed out that this situation is not only in the country governance is useless, that is, the FBI itself is no good. "After the end of the 20-day marathon hearing, but to the public to leave more questions.The incumbent president TRUMP is Comey's object of investigation, which of course is ironic, that help the general election to win the election of Democrats may eventually Congress submits enough tools to impeach Trump, and Washington can only blame ourselves for this troublesome situation.

手握川普政治前途 他才是美国最有权势之人？

眼下，谁是美国最有权势的人？不是美国总统唐纳德·川普，而是联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米。

据彭博社3月22日报道，科米20日在听证会上首次证实，联邦调查局正在调查关于俄罗斯政府涉嫌干预美国2016年总统选举的指控，相关调查从去年7月开始，调查范围包括川普的竞选团队成员是否与俄方存在关联。这意味着，从实际意义上来说，联邦调查局局长科米将决定当选总统川普是否合法。这使得科米成为美国最有权势的人。

当前这种尴尬的局面是如何造成的？事情还得从联邦调查局启动调查前一个月说起。2016年6月27日，时任司法部长洛蕾塔·林奇在亚利桑那州菲尼克斯市的一条机场跑道上与希拉里·克林顿的丈夫比尔·克林顿密谈了45分钟。由于当时司法部正在调查希拉里的“邮件门”事件，林奇不得不退出调查进程。

林奇的退出，使得科米肩负起“警察”和“检察官”的双重职责。此后，科米先是宣布调查结论为希拉里“粗心大意”但不足以提起控诉，却又在10月28日，距离大选投票日前不到一周之时，宣称发现了新邮件要重启调查。此后，所谓的新邮件被证实与“邮件门”事件无关。但科米的所作所为已经对希拉里的选情造成了无法挽回的伤害。

川普上台之后，新任司法部长杰夫·塞申斯因为与俄罗斯官员存在不当联系而被迫退出俄政府涉嫌干涉美国大选的调查。至此，连续两任司法部长的退出，使得科米在美国政坛拥有了异乎寻常的巨大影响力。

彭博社指出，现在这种局面不仅于国家治理无益，就是对联邦调查局自身来说也没有好处。“20日的马拉松听证会结束后，反而给民众留下更多疑问。现任总统川普是科米的调查对象，这当然令人感到讽刺，那个帮助川普赢得大选的民主党人可能最终会向国会提交足以弹劾川普的工具。对于眼前这种糟心局面，华盛顿只能怪责自己。”
