James Comey To Be Indicted Says … MSNBC? And CNN?

Posted • September 24, 2025: Former FBI Director James Comey is expected to be indicted in the coming days. “Three sources familiar tell MSNBC former FBI Director James Comey is expected to be indicted in the coming days.” About time. Let’s jump right into the clips. First up, we have MSNBC. Just to focus on that clip for a moment, the charge would be lying to congress and/or perjury. (The difference is whether or not Comey was sworn in before he spoke.) According to them it stems from testimony before Congress in September of 2020. The statute of limitations is for five years and it is about to expire. A little Googling tells us that he testified on September 30, 2020 about the Trump-Russia investigation, so that seems to set the deadline. Annoyingly, they cut off before they discuss what specific lies he might have allegedly told. After that, we have this clip from CNN: And CNN confirms MSNBC's reporting that James Comey expects an indictment from the Department of Justice to come soon.

Of course, some of their analysis is fair, noting that an indictment is far, far from proof of guilt, or talking about the danger of lawfare. But it’s funny, we don’t recall CNN making these points when Trump was indicted four times right in time for maximum interference with the election cycle. Somehow all that caution they are sounding right now was thrown to the wind when Trump was indicted. Ultimately, if the indictment happens and it is as described, they will have to prove that Comey made a false statement of material fact that he knew to be false at the time he made it. So, for instance, it is a complete defense to say someone lied to him, and he was duped—because it is not lying or perjury unless you knew it was false. And yes, that is true even if the person was stupid to have been duped. —— You just hate to see it. 😭 James Comey. The guy who weaponized the FBI against Trump. The guy who leaked, lied, and covered for Hillary. Now he’s finally about to face an indictment. Took long enough. ⚡️ (…)
