In reply to the discussion: Whether we like James Comey or not is not the point [View all]Ocelot II
(127,434 posts)29. Exactly. I no longer give a single fuck about what Comey did wrt the 2016 election.
It's absolutely irrelevant to the present situation. Trump's persecution of him - and that's what it is, persecution disguised as prosecution - is outrageous and unconscionable, and it won't stop with Comey. If I were still practicing law I'd be tempted to volunteer to help represent him (not that he'd want me). Next up? Adam Schiff, George Soros? Maybe Jack Smith? This has to stop, right now, and I only hope Comey can sue those bastards in the Department of Absolutely No Justice Whatsoever for malicious prosecution.

I don't want to hear another damn thing about Comey's mishandling of the Clinton investigation.

Wasn't Jason Chaffetz the one who leaked Comey's "Hillary's emails" letter to the press?

Absolutely, we must stand up to tyranny. Free speech applies to all or to none.
