The legacy newscasts were all over the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, labeling his prosecution as part of an alleged “political retribution” campaign by President Donald Trump. These outlets were nowhere to be seen, though, as the Eastern District of Virginia dropped a multiple-warhead filing that decimated those narratives.
As reported by John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy on Just the News:
Federal prosecutors revealed Monday they have unearthed a trove of personal emails showing then-FBI Director James Comey openly talked in the days before the 2016 election that he expected to be working soon for President-elect Hillary Clinton and was being kept apprised by a top FBI aide on efforts to anonymously provide information to the news media.
…
Monday's court filing also raised the possibility that prosecutors will argue Comey misled Congress about another element of his testimony, this involving whether he was aware of a U.S. intelligence intercept in summer 2016 indicating Clinton had approved a plan to smear Trump with the Russia allegations.
The court filing revealed prosecutors have specific handwritten notes — which were hidden in a secret room at the FBI — indicating Comey was aware of the intelligence.
