Justice has been served. The karma train has stopped at the FBI/Comey station.

For the Comey/FBI gang bang of Hillary Clinton right before the 2016 presidential election.
The first woman in American history to receive the presidential nomination of a major
political party.

Comey and the FBI created a Frankenstein by throwing the election to Trump.
Now they are shocked the monster has turned on them.

I tend to think their outrage about the trumpies not releasing the Epstein files is that it’s affecting their content on their shows. It’s not about morals, it’s their bottom line $$$ audience engagement. The internet troll administration is in full swing.

And he NEVER forgives being humiliated. He has gone after every prosecutor with the moral courage to stand up to him and charge him for his crimes.

I'd call him a mad dog, but even a mad dog has more common sense and reasoning ability.

Those who bring such evil on the planet deserve harsh consequences.

I consider a great justice has been done.

But I understand it is not rule of law strictly speaking.

Mussolini was hung by his toes at the end of WWII
Not legal but it was justice.

Comey's only crime is being on Trump's enemies list. You have your grievances against Comey (grievances I share), which have nothing to do with breaking the law. So do Trump and Maga. Neither is better than the other. Next is JB Pritzker. That is the extension of what you are sanctioning here. Trump doesn't like him either.

All of us who care about the constitution and rule of law should be very concerned about this. You are a smart person with a good heart. I believe if you think about this logically, you will see that your reasons are not consistent with the law. If we put every person we didn't like in prison, the country would be a Nazi hellhole. That is in fact Trump's goal. Democrats should not be going along with his agenda.

Of course I am concerned about the fascist dictatorship destroying our country.

And I cannot feel one bit sorry for one of the enablers who put the most
evil president in US history into the White House.

Karmic bit Comey on the ass.
He deserves it.

Pandora’s box was opened that day Comey announced he was reopening the investigation into Hillary.

Thanks a lot Comey for helping to overthrow our democracy.

Now if only his daughter would release whatever files she has on the investigations she was working on before being illegally fired from her job.

...but as Lincoln said, become accustomed to bondage, then prepare your own limbs for that.

You can't credibly rail against Trump for prosecuting his political enemies while cheering on the prosecution of your own.

So many things like this which should be self-evident, need to be revived and said again and over again to remind and keep us from the folly of our own political zeal.

Hitler caused the death of 85 million people in WWII.
His death was not a tragedy, it was the end of one of the most evil men in history.

James Comey used his power to deliberately lie about a good woman to throw the election
to a ruthless brutal psychopath. This psychopath killed one million Americans
during Covid, and will not kill many more world wide with funding cuts, anti health
stance, and other devious plots.

James Comey did this to himself. He aligned himself with a serial killer who
has now gone after him. I have no sympathy whatsoever.
