Comey Demands He Keep Sensitive Material in His Own Possession

[excalibur]

This demand will tell us a lot about the trial judge.

It is loony, but there it is.

The court should deny it, if they don't the government will appeal.

This who Comey thinks he is, above all law.

​

The latest filings in the Comey case reveal a battle over whether he should be allowed to keep sensitive discovery materials. Lindsey Halligan argues he should only be allowed to review them under supervision. Comey, hilariously, wants to keep them in his own possession, notwithstanding that this whole case is about him leaking to the media. Even better, his filing today claims that because he was FBI Director and a U.S. Attorney, he can be trusted.​

Comey should be in prison solitary confinement while he awaits trial

Sounds to me like his house should be raided, materials recovered, and he be confined till trial.

I read this yesterday and I almost but a gut laughing. Wasn't it the FBI who raided Mara Lago with guns blazing and going through Melania's underwear because Trump supposedly kept classified documents and refused to return them? The hypocrisy is astounding.

 

[Marener]

I don’t know why you don’t want him to keep the materials. If he leaks it, you can file even more charges.

Is the 4th amendment one of those rights that you’re okay with trampling on?

In his case I'll allow it.

 

[Marener]

That’s what a fascist would say.

There was no supposedly about it.

Trump did steal and keep classified documents.

He lied about it repeatedly in the face of evidence.

He defied a subpoena.

Nothing supposedly about it.

But this is a very typical Trumpster attempt at false equivalency.

Why?

What documents are we talking about?

Has anyone asked for them.?

Is there a subpoena?

For that matter, where is the evidence that Halligan claims she based her case on?

They won’t provide it.

Which is why this Comey trope was planted. To create a false equivilancy talking point for Trumpsters to repeat to each other. And to hide the obvious fact that this is a political show trial, and nothing more.

And Comey is doing the same thing and yet you claim his indictment is just Trump getting back at his enemies.

 

[TimFitz]

Comey is obviously not doing the same thing. Your claim is false (yet again)

In fact, it is the DoJ that is refusing to turn over its evidence.

This is what you get when you get your “news” from X posts.

Yes, they are very ok with that. This time next year they would have just Gitmo'd him.

Produce evidence.

You won’t, because you can’t.

It’s a made up X post and you fell for it (yet again),

had you actually read the whole thing, instead of seconding the OP’s absolutely false claim that these imaginary documents are in Comey’s home, you would know that the real subject is the DoJ’s weak excuse for trying to hide its lack of evidence.

of, course, the rest of your fellow Trumpsters fell for it too.

Comey himself said he was keeping classified documents. How much more proof do you need?

Your claim isn’t even supported by anything.

You’re lying. You made it up.

I think he's going to try to flee the country. Probably to Russia or China.

LOL. Comey said it. Why do I need support on top of that?
