I was getting to that and yes I believe he did. :lol:  

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/may/18/james-comey-higher-ups-never-asked-halt-fbi-invest/

James Comey, just-fired FBI director, said in a Senate hearing earlier this month that he’s never been asked by higher-ups to back off an investigation for political reasons — and that doing so would’ve been an eyebrow-raising “big deal.”
The Q&A with Democrat Sen. Mazie Hirono didn’t name President Donald Trump’s name. But given the recent Comey memo, in which he asserted Trump tried to stop the FBI investigation of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, the under-oath testimony is an interesting consideration.
Here’s what was said, as noted by the Washington bureau chief for The Rebel media, Jack Posobiec, in a Twitter post.
First, Hirono askedComey: “So if the attorney general or senior officials at the Department of Justice opposes a specific investigation, can they halt that FBI investigation?
And Comey’s response: “In theory, yes.”
Hirono: “Has it happened?”

Comey: “Not in my experience. Because it would be a big deal to tell the FBI to stop doing something that — without an appropriate purpose. I mean where oftentimes they give us opinions that we don’t see a case there, and so you ought to stop investing resources in it. But I’m talking about a situation where we were told to stop something for a political reason, that would be a very big deal. It’s not happened in my experience.”

And how did Posobiec characterize that testimony?

 

He headlined his tweet this way: “Comey said under oath that Trump did not ask him to halt any investigation — 5/8/17 #ComeyMemo.”

Traders misinterpret a Comey video that they think clears Trump

  • Comey was asked in the video whether the attorney general or senior Justice Department officials have ever asked him to halt an investigation.
  • Conservative websites misconstrued the video to mean neither Trump nor anyone else had ever asked Comey to end a probe.
  • U.S. dollar spikes and stocks rise as the video circulates.

 

A video of ex-FBI Director James Comey testifying before Congress earlier this month has given some traders hope that President Donald Trump will avoid any allegations from Comey that the president may have tried to impede an FBI investigation. 

Those seeing exoneration from the video, which is being shared by various conservative sites and through social media, appear to be misinterpreting the question that Comey was asked by Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii. 

Here's the full exchange. Comey is never asked about Trump. He is asked about the U.S. attorney general or "senior officials" at the Justice Department:

Well, it really kind of depends what the definition of "is", is.

My favorite....

 

is (dot is) is the top-level domain for Iceland. The country code is derived from the first two letters of Ísland, which is the Icelandic word for Iceland. ... It was registered on December 11, 1986, making it one of the earliest ever domain registrations on the Internet.

His answer says it all.  The President is the head of the dept of Justice.   You are also ignoring the fact its a crime for him to not immediately report obstruction of justice.  

But I’m talking about a situation where we were told to stop something for a political reason, that would be a very big deal. It’s not happened in my experience.”
