Comey says he is 'innocent' when he is on tape lying to congress.
Comey knew that the Russian collusion story was not true, yet pursued Trump anyway!?!?!? For years. No qualms about it.
Tracking and spying on a sitting president.
He says that he is heartbroken at what DOJ has become.
I think that what HE did at DOJ was heartbreaking.
He says "The president cannot use the DOJ to target political opponents". Yet, Comey himself did it for YEARS! And Biden continued it under Christopher Ray,
He says he believe in an independent judiciary. What he did is anything but that, he actually avoided charging Hillary for use of server and went after Trump to get the heat off of her.( that is my 'sobhouse-like' opinion, but everything else I just typed is fact).


So thank you for the warning.

As I read the story Trump 8and by proxy Bondi) needed a person willing to go for him at all. The more seasoned prosecutirs (having at least one case under their belt) wouldn't take it.

Now a judge has found that the choice was of the prosecutor was not allowed under the rules (this will go up to the Supreme Court for sure, so no need to cry "victory" too fast). So no reason to cry "victory" BUT will the president appoint (and the Senate approve) of a procesutor for the district that will take up the case?

There's a saying something like "Dogs don't bark at parked cars"

Most people view Comey as a parked car. He has no power or oversight. He is out to pasture and writing crime novels now. If he did a real crime, fine, punish him for that, but it's not worth a newspaper headline. You'll notice there's no one "defending" him because there's nothing there. He's parked.

But MAGA is barking, loudly. They all seem to still view him as a threat. Why? Because he threatens dear leader's authority. He dared to question Trump once. He must go down or Trump might be a weaker fascist than they thought.

They need something to keep their mind off Epstein and Trump's switch with Mamdani.

Trump revealing that he has no real position on anything, other than possibly making money may he a bit unsettling for the faithful.

Not my area, I do not know. Who knows what little nugget in the Rules of Procedure people like Marauder will pull out of nowhere, but it will be sent up to SCOTUS. It was a techno glitch, wrong lawyer, so the merits will be decided when the case gets back on track..
Victory? The only person saying that is Comey... 😆 Shows how stupid he is, I'd assumed he was a lawyer.
Curious???? WHY, oh why, does not one lib step up and find fault with his lying under oath Congress? Y'all are no worse than you were with watching Hillary's physical rage, destroying govt property, and felonies , obstructing the process, the server, all bad, yet you just watch and say nothing. Ask Sue why she says all this about Trump but not a word about Hillary, and now picks up a new flag defending perjury of Comey.
I would hate for sue to lose credibility on the forum
