but not about the content but about the subliminal...

Comey's challenge of Lindsey Halligan is the latest bid to derail Trump's top prosecutors

The headline is intended to make it seem that there is some conspiracy of an ongoing effort to sabotage. When the facts are they are challenging the corrupt way unqualified prosecutors are being used for political ends. I vote for derailing corrupt efforts for sure...but the headline doesn't indicate that.
