Some Comey supporters actually think he was an FBI agent at some point before being named director - He was not. He's been a lawyer in and out of government for most of his career, and ironically, he may find himself barred for lying and leaking as FBI Director.

Somewhere between 200 and 9000 Americans remain in Afghanistan. The 200 number is the one preferred by the White House. The 9000 comes from what the White House said 9 days ago "Somewhere between 10 and 15k Americans remain" 6000 Americans were evacuated. 200 number is BS.
