The Justice Department has brought a third criminal case against former FBI Director James Comey, charging him with leaking classified information about government surveillance techniques to The New York Times in 2016.
The Dept of Justice has unsealed a superseding ‘information’ filing with the court that was originally sealed on October 5th when it was filed with the court. The criminal information was filed October 5th because the ten-year statute of limitations was close (event date October 5, 2016) and the DOJ wanted to toll the statute, permitting prosecution of James Comey. {SEE pdf HERE} Comey is notified about potential charges stemming from the information as filed.
Former FBI Director James Comey and his attorneys were notified by the DOJ on October 9, 2016, that an information had been filed on October 5th. Lawyers representing James Comey then asked the court to dismiss the case; however, in the DOJ response to the Comey motion the details of the violation are laid out {SEE pdf and Attachments Here}.
The Court records unsealed yesterday show federal prosecutors filed two felony charges against Comey October 5th in connection with a media leak. The charges stem from a Times article about Yahoo adapting its spam filter to accommodate surveillance requests from the FBI.
Whether the indictment succeeds or not (dual-justice DC trial issue), former FBI Director James Comey is going to have to pay money to defend himself.
WASHINGTON, Oct 26 (Reuters) – The US Justice Department is attempting to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey for a third time, the latest case accusing him of sharing sensitive national security information in 2016, according to court documents made public on Monday.
The case was revealed in a court document known as a “criminal information” that the Justice Department said it filed to stop the 10-year statute of limitations on the offense from expiring earlier this month.
The document filed in Washington federal court charges Comey with transmitting and conspiring to transmit national defense information. It alleges he shared classified information with a reporter from the New York Times in October 2016.
Comey said in a video on Instagram that “they’re back again” and referenced the Justice Department, but did not provide further details. “I’m still innocent,” he added. Comey’s lawyers have already asked a judge to dismiss the case, arguing it is legally improper.
“I think he’s a dirty cop,” President Donald Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, when asked about Comey. “I don’t know much about it,” he said.
The new case adds to the legal fights facing Comey, whom the Justice Department has already charged twice, accusing him of lying to Congress about media leaks and threatening Trump in a social media post. A judge dismissed the false statements case, while the threats case remains pending. (read more)
One there should never ever be a statute of limitations when it comes to any crook in the government or District Of Criminals (DC) Agencies included.
Just like all other DS rats you know there is a massive pool of shysters who will gladly fight for this criminal for free.
The Clowns In Action have many on the payroll at the ready like Zaid
Few, if any, would put this up for a vote. Maybe a freshman congressman would be bold enough to see who likes/dislikes the idea. Those that vote against would have a large target on their back, guilty of something or not. Most likely, they would be protecting themselves or somebody else.
I have always endorsed the trite saying, ”If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” With alleged criminals like Comey, this is what must be done. That man is smug and arrogant thinking he is ”above the law.” Well, the law needs to cut him down to size so that he isn’t.
Yes, just keep dragging him through another legal knothole and make him spend his own money to defend himself. Remember: “the process is the penalty”.
He legal fees are being covered by the DC machine.
I do not understand what is taking so long to hold people accountable. It is frustrating and discouraging.
Lawyers have F-ed everything up, we need Legal Reform, it’s ridiculous.
“Justice delayed is Justice denied” – that’s not just a slogan that’s a social scientific law.
Hillary Clinton started this sh!t as soon as Bill got in the White House.
Her answer to established science was always “so what.”
Hillary Clinton is as dumb as it gets – always wrong but never in doubt!
That crowd also famously said that the process is the punishment.
Don’t forget the J U D G E S !!!!!!
Pam Bondi was a horrible choice for AG.
I’m not sure Kash Patel at FBI is much better. Crimes outside the DC bubble and Fed Agencies are getting investigated and prosecuted. Inside the beltway, same old same old.
Tick tock, the second term of the greatest president of my lifetime is going to end way too soon.
What was your grand idea, to have Comey and the rest of the gang indicted only to have a Biden or Obama judge toss the case? A huge part of the challenge has been remaking the courts. You can’t just start indicting people when you’re dealing with judges who practice
Lawfare.
While there is still time : DITCH THUNE
I would suggest it is b/c we have been not yet put Nayib Bukele’s (El Salvador) method into effect, I.E
(paraphrazed) ” destroying a corrupt judicial is the first order of business in order to reclaim a free country”
It’s mostly to run out the clock on the Statute of Limitations while hoping a dem takes the White House.
1) Obamagents within FBI slow-walk the investigation.
2) Obamagents within DoJ slow-walk making the case for a grand jury.
3) Obamagistrates declare the US Attorney improperly appointed which requires an appeal.
4) RINOs in the senate refuse to approve said USA, further delaying the case against their pal(s).
5) Obamagistrates issue rulings to eliminate evidence, testimony.
6) No DC jury will indict a dem or dem operative and no DC judge will sentence one to prison.

Great read…

She is truly awesome!😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Eventually Gomer Comey will end up in front of an unbiased Judge. Then he can cry victim while shelling out 100s of thousands in attorney fees
Sword of Damocles still
Hanging:
“ The DOJ has appealed [the Lindsey Halligan] ruling; oral arguments were heard last month but no decision yet.
[86 seashell] matter is pending before Judge Louise Flanagan.
From a GREAT 3 Stooges episode:
“Young man….you act as if the sword of Damocles is hanging above your head…”
How does it feel, James?
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW
Just keep the indictments up.
Indict him for being ugly while we’re at it.
The guys a total douch and he deserves to be destroyed.

I wonder what the Trump DOJ failed to do or include that will be grounds for tossing this into the growing trashcan of prosecution failures.
James Rybicki was Comey’s chief of staff.
So, we have Comey, Baker, and Rybicki working to correct the record. The motion to seal mentioned 1 of the reasons to seal was to ensure the safety of a cooperating witness. I’m not sure of that is boiler plate wording. There were 4 reasons given to seal.
Baker was clear by Durham. Comey is on the hot seat.
Maybe, James Rybicki is a government witness.
You may be a couple steps ahead of some readers here.

Posting what you know you know is essential.
Don’t hesitate to speculate, either.
Both are welcome as long as we know which is which.
Rotten to the core. Government agencies use ridiculous requirements to discourage Americans from applying. However many are hired who do not and cannot meet them. Promotions go to those loyal to their supervisors and agency and NOT to those loyal to their fellow citizens or country. Gatekeepers make sure of that. All decisions are top down. And all key positions are held by those who loathe Americans especially White Christian Americans.

Wishing tonight that William Shakespeare was here with us in these times. Not sure if he would write a comedy or a tragedy about the American government.
What a cast of characters to choose from! I’m not sure this is a Shakespeare quote from something but it sure fits the time we live in: ” Oh the tangled web we weave when at first we try to deceive.” Or something like that.
Hoping the web of sticky spider glue catches them all in its web.

But I’m gonna have to issue a warning here RI, sorry.
You need to be more inclusive. The only permitted spelling of The Bard these days is Sheikh Spee’ah.
Remember, words are violence and we must dilute and debase our culture and history to help poor asylum seekers and refugees to feel at home.
Your Sacks-On friend.

Don’t drop the soap when you’re in the showers, Jimbo !!!
Some have remarked their frustration but Todd Blanche has begun what Pam Bondy could (or would) never do. If we lose these midterms the retribution will be hell for all of us but outside of Trump, Vance and Hegseth, especially Blanche. We must VOTE & PRAY. This is urgent.
F this Crap Weasel, Comey. So disgusted with slow walking DOJ.
Well, Mr. Comey gets to experience the process being the penalty. He’s going to have to spend some of his $$ for more lawyers to defend himself against these new charges and D.C. lawyers aren’t cheap. Good – keep filing charges.
Above the law, treasonous actions abound, it was a coup, true justice would see many hang, yet the pretending prevails
The future of America is a great big question mark, who knows what the new normal will be
The reality of the present and recent past is not very reassuring
If not imprison, then at least bankrupt the House of Comey.
