Comey expects Trump to come after him again

The Hill -  Former FBI Director James Comey said Monday he expects he could face additional charges under the Trump administration after a federal judge dismissed the case against him.

Comey, who was facing charges for lying to Congress in 2020, called the case a “prosecution based on malevolence and incompetence and a reflection of what the Department of Justice has become under Donald Trump.”

“A message has to be sent that the president of the United States cannot use the Department of Justice to target his political enemies. I don’t care what your politics are, you have to see that as fundamentally un-American and a threat to the rule of law that keeps all of us free,” Comey said in a video he shared on Instagram.

“I know that Donald Trump will probably come after me again, and my attitude is going to be the same. I’m innocent, I am not afraid, and I believe in an independent federal judiciary.”
