BREAKINGBREAKING,
Comey, who was fired during Trump’s first term, has been accused of unlawfully divulging national security information
Published On ۲۶ Oct ۲۰۲۶
James Comey, the former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), is facing a third set of criminal charges under the administration of United States President Donald Trump.
On Monday, sealed documents came to light showing that the Trump administration accused Comey of two counts related to the unlawful dissemination of “information related to national defence”.
Comey, a high-profile Trump critic, has not been indicted in the case. He has denied any wrongdoing.
But it is the third time the Trump administration has sought to level a criminal case against the former FBI director since the president returned to office in January ۲۰۲۵.
In a video on the online platform Substack, Comey once again denounced the Trump administration’s attempts to prosecute him as a campaign of political retribution.
“Well, now they’re back again. it would almost be funny if it weren’t such an appalling abuse of the Department of Justice, one that we cannot become numb to,” Comey said.
“Nothing’s changed with me. I’m still innocent, and I’m still not afraid of these people, and I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.”
He also noted that Trump is only midway through his second term, and he hinted that he expects more criminal charges to come.
“The next couple years are going to be hard for all of us,” Comey added. “It’s really important that we stand straight and keep the faith in America.”
More details to come.
