While the rest of the "free" world will likely be glued to their screens to wait for the "smoking gun" during former FBI Director Jim Comey"s testimony on Thursday, AP reports that President Donald Trump appears unphased - scheduling a speech addressing religious conservatives at the same time as Comey speaks.
The Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” conference announced Tuesday that the president had agreed to address the annual gathering Thursday.
Faith and Freedom spokesman Lance Lemmonds says the president is expected to speak at 12:30 p.m. EDT.
Comey is scheduled to testify Thursday before the Senate intelligence committee beginning at 10 a.m. that day.
His appearance will mark Comey’s first public comments since he was abruptly fired by the president last month.
Other speakers expected to address the Faith and Freedom event are Vice President Mike Pence, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
Additionally, and perhaps not surprisingly, President Trump will be busy doing something else...
I"m told by two WH sources that Pres. Trump does not plan to put down Twitter on Thursday. May live tweet if he feels the need to respond.

Thursday is going to be busy for sure.
