The 10 Glaring Flaws with the Comey Indictment

1 Materiality.
2 Falsity.
3 Vagueness of the Question.
4 Richman’s Status.
5 Very Weak Evidence.
6 Halligan Appointment Legality
7 Prosecutors’ Memo.
8 Halligan in the Grand Jury.
9 Staffing.

10 Trump’s Role. The most conspicuous feature of this case is Trump’s demand for prosecution. He replaced a U.S. Attorney who refused to pursue meritless prosecutions, installed Halligan soon thereafter, and told aides to indict long before a coherent theory emerged. Trump’s personal vendetta looms over the entire case.
