The Comey resources request

The New York Times and several other outlets reported Wednesday that Comey, just before he was fired, had asked the Justice Department’s Rosenstein for more funding and personnel for the Russia intelligence probe. But when Comey’s deputy got to Capitol Hill the next day, he denied there was any need for more resources.

"I believe we have the adequate resources to do it and I know that we have resourced that investigation adequately," FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe told lawmakers.

McCabe said the FBI, if it needed more resources, wouldn’t even go to the Justice Department but instead to Congress. ““We don’t typically request resources for an individual case,” he explained.

He even went further to assure Congress that nothing - from resources to political pressure - was interfering in the Russia probe.

“There has been no effort to impede our investigation to date,” McCabe said.

Justice and congressional officials told Circa that that Comey never asked for more money for the probe but may have observed the FBI had to wait a long time for a deputy attorney general to be confirmed and appointed to help oversee the probe from the Justice Department’s side.

But that’s a big factual difference from the original reports.

The New York Times didn't return a call Friday seeking comment on whether it stood by the story.
