James Comey Subpoenaed in Anti-Trump Grand Conspiracy' Case: Axios
"The Trump administration's grand conspiracy theory posits that Democratic officials bent the rules, broke the law and lied under oath to investigate, prosecute and otherwise undermine Trump from his election in 2016 through his federal indictments in 2023. The Comey subpoena, issued last week, relates to his alleged role in the drafting of a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) concerning Russia's election interference that favored Trump."
"Because Ms. Halligan had no lawful authority to present the indictment, I will grant Mr. Comey's motion and dismiss the indictment without prejudice, wrote Currie. Halligan had secured an indictment against Comey on two charges, making false statements to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding, shortly after Trump inadvertently posted the following message, apparently addressed to Attorney General Pam Bondi, on Truth Social."
James Comey received a subpoena as part of a grand conspiracy investigation overseen by District Court Judge Aileen Cannon. The case involves allegations that Democratic officials bent rules, broke laws, and lied under oath to investigate and prosecute Trump from 2016 through 2023. Comey's subpoena specifically concerns his alleged involvement in drafting a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment about Russian election interference favoring Trump. Previous charges against Comey in Virginia were dismissed in November because U.S. attorney Lindsey Halligan lacked lawful authority to present the indictment. The original charges included making false statements to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding.
