"Former FBI director James Comey who Trump considers one of his worst enemies has been charged with making false statements and obstruction of justice, the president announced on social media. The charges were filed less than a week after Trump issued an extraordinary public reprimand of Attorney General Pam Bondi to force the prosecution of his most detested adversaries. If found guilty, Comey faces up to five years in prison on those charges."
"Trump's announcement of the charges against his nemesis uses the same vindictive language he employed several days ago in his scolding of Bondi. After describing Comey as one of the worst human beings ever to walk the United States and corrupt former FBI director, he states that a grand jury has indicted him for multiple illegal and illicit acts. He has been so bad for our Country for so long, and now he is beginning to have to answer for his crimes against our Country."
Donald Trump announced on social media that James Comey has been charged with making false statements and obstruction of justice. The charges were filed less than a week after Trump reprimanded Attorney General Pam Bondi to force prosecution of his adversaries. If convicted, Comey faces up to five years in prison. Comey declared his innocence and expressed confidence in the federal judicial system in a video message. Trump used vindictive language, describing Comey as one of the worst human beings and a corrupt former FBI director, and said a grand jury indicted him for multiple illegal acts. Bondi wrote that no one is above the law and that the indictment reflects the Department of Justice's commitment to holding those who abuse power accountable.
