Comey writing book on how DOJ has 'strayed' under Trump

Jim Comey is coming out with a new book, but the fired FBI director’s tome won’t be an October surprise.

Published by Flatiron Books, Saving Justice: Truth, Transparency, and Trust has an expected release date of Jan. 12, 2021, about a week before Inauguration Day. According to its Amazon description, Comey “uses his long career in federal law enforcement to explore issues of justice and fairness in the U.S. justice system” and “he knows better than most just what a force for good the U.S. justice system can be, and how far afield it has strayed during the Trump Presidency.”

“Comey shows just how essential it is to pursue the primacy of truth for federal law enforcement,” the description adds. “ Saving Justice is gracefully written and honestly told, a clarion call for a return to fairness and equity in the law.”

Comey has come under renewed scrutiny in recent weeks as the credibility of British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s anti-Trump dossier, which the FBI relied heavily on to justify surveilling Trump campaign associate Carter Page, has increasingly been criticized.

During the Trump Presidency? Yeah, chasing false accusations, but my real bet is that it had already strayed by Ruby Ridge, Waco, and a host of other incidents in which innocent people were pursued and entrapped. That straying started under Daddy Bush, and has been going on ever since. Funny how far afield you can get when your heading is just a degree off, over time.

Comey's trying to become a major fiction writer. How well did his first novel sell?

You know his book sales are driven by Democrat donor pockets and available (cheap) warehouse space.
