    Trump tells his AG to punish his political enemies and now James Comey is being indicted.


    WASHINGTON, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Former FBI Director James Comey is expected to be indicted in the Eastern District of Virginia in the coming days, MSNBC reported on Wednesday, citing three sources.
    "The full extent of the charges being prepared against Comey is unclear, but the sources believe that at least one element of the indictment—if it goes forward--will accuse him of lying to Congress during his testimony on September 30, 2020 about whether he authorized a leak of information," a MSNBC reporter wrote on X.

    I don't know if he's guilty or not (he probably is though), but I can tell you he has acted guilty as hell for years now! He brought shame upon the FBI -- very much damaged the integrity of the organization. And he very likely contributed to the Deep State's coup efforts against Trump with the Russian collusion farce.


    GOOD DAY

    The funniest part about MAGATs crying about Comey is they pretend comey didnt hand Trump his first term on a silver platter..he went against all FBI protocol to release that letter 2 weeks before the election that the fbi was still investigating Clinton. Everyone at the fbi/Doj told him what he was doing was wrong and tilted the election for Trump.

    MAGAts are just so sincerely clueless that its sad. Trump is president in no small part because of Comey

    Well good luck to them. It is some petty revenge, but if they can prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt to a jury, I'm down.

    If Trump thinks that getting a conviction will somehow rehabilitate his reputation, he is sadly mistaken.

    I haven't seen the charges, yet. If Comey broke the law, then I'm okay holding him accountable.

    Given that perjury is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison, qualifying as a "serious" offense requiring a jury unless waived (which is rare) that is where this will head.

    With the state of the union and pettiness on both sides being at an all time high a conviction is unlikely unless the DOJ can get a jury of twelve republicans.

    It would be hard to prove juror negligence in this matter as well as in most cases, a judge cannot compel a juror to reveal their reasoning or the specifics of the jury's deliberations. Legal rules strongly protect the privacy of jury deliberations to ensure jurors feel free to speak their minds without fear of harassment or public scrutiny.
    .
    This trial would basically be for show as is all things related to Trump.

    I believe this has already played out a couple of times in DC already.

    and a grand jury pool that absolutely hates their guts.

    I'm okay holding anyone accountable if they committed a crime.

    Misdemeanor crime that was charged as a felony for the first time in history... a misdemeanor crime that Trump had no involvement in (accounting bookkeeping)... and that has historically resulted in a small fine. Deep blue jury pool, super liberal judge, and a prosecutor who ran on "getting Trump" before any crime was investigated. That's your 34 felonies. Miscarriage of justice. Ironically, from a political standpoint, Trump was helped tremendously by all the lawfare. It rallied Republicans around him. What a massive backfire for liberals!

    Voters knew better than to penalize Trump for the Democrats' weaponization of the justice system.


    GOOD DAY
