Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted by a federal grand jury, an extraordinary escalation in President Donald Trump’s effort to prosecute his political enemies.

No one is above the law.” That was what Attorney General Pam Bondi said this week following the announcement that former FBI Director James Comey had been indicted for making a false statement to Congress and obstruction in a criminal case.

On Friday, Trump described Comey as a “Dirty Cop,” claiming: “Whether you like Corrupt James Comey or not, and I can’t imagine too many people liking him, HE LIED! It is not a complex lie, it’s a very simple, but IMPORTANT one.”

In a memo this week, prosecutors in Virginia recommended against potential plans by the new U.S. attorney there to charge ex-FBI Director James Comey, sources say.
