Pam Bondi's Own DOJ Staff Explode at Indicting James Comey: 'Worst Abuse'

Source: The Daily Beast

Attorney General Pam Bondi is feeling the heat after Donald Trump’s revenge indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.

Insiders within the department have been speaking out after the DOJ announced on Thursday that Comey had been charged with obstructing a congressional investigation and making false statements. One source told MSNBC it was “among the worst abuses in DOJ history.”

“The Comey indictment is among the worst abuses in DOJ history,” sources told MSNBC Justice and Intelligence Correspondent Ken Dilanian. “Shocking,” the sources added. “It’s hard to overstate how big a moment this is.”

Comey has denied the allegations, posting on Instagram on Thursday, “My family and I have known for years there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump. But we couldn’t imagine ourselves living any other ways. We will not live on our knees. And you shouldn’t either.”

The ONLY difference between the "inner circle" of female members in Trump's CABAL, and Crack Whores is:

There are things the Crack Whores won't do,............. for ANY amount of money.................

And all of them prove it every day........Bondi, Leavitt, Noem, Boebert, Gabbard, Lake, Loeffler, MTG, Mace, etc etc etc

When a law firm is violating the Rules of Professional Conduct as a matter of policy, any lawyer in that firm that does not resign is complicit.
