They fired an agent because he wasn’t into perp walk, pep-talk authoritarian.

>The source told CBS News that leadership asked for “large, beefy” agents to conduct an arrest of Comey “in full kit,” including Kevlar vests and exterior wear emblazoned with the FBI logo. It was suggested that a supervisory special agent in the violent crimes division of the FBI’s Washington Field Office would be able to put together the kinds of agents who fit the bill, the source said.
>The agent, however, refused to participate in this plan, believing it would be inappropriate and highly unusual for a white-collar defendant like Comey, according to the source. He was then suspended for insubordination.
>The FBI is now actively working to put together a team to arrest Comey between now and his court appearance on Thursday, but other FBI supervisors have also refused to cooperate, said a source knowledgeable about the conversations and a law enforcement source familiar with the situation. The expectation is that the FBI will eventually find somebody.

It’s worth noting that they didn’t perp walk Trump because there were concerns about ‘propriety’.
Seems like a historic mistake, now.

A clown show is all this administration can produce. Remember that sad pathetic military parade Trump threw a tantrum over to waste taxpayer dollars on?
This is what you get when you put a Convicted Criminal in Charge who’s prior claim to fame is yelling ‘You’re Fired’ on a reality tv show, and ‘Grab them by the pussy’ on Access Hollywood…

It would add to the defense’s case for vindictive prosecution.

I feel like they’re intentionally trying to fuck up cases that had no grounds to begin with so that they can say “Oh look, the judiciary is corrupt, better just skip those evil people siding with the dissidents and let the president decide people’s fates directly”

Comey isn’t my favorite guy but this is bullshit.
not_a_moogle on
Comey hasn’t even committed a crime worth arresting. His warrent said its because he lied under oath. Without giving any details about what the lie was.
Anyone with a badge that claims to uphold law and order should refuse to arrest him.
And anyone that does go through with this arrest and perp walk has made it clear, that its about retribution and being authoritarian, and suppressing American freedom.

Surely he has some ties to important people still?
From the looks of things the “deep state” and this idea the intel community runs everything seem to have been a myth.

Stop the stupid theatrics. He’d willingly turn himself in. The case is weak and off to a terrible start. If he is guilty, so be it. It’ll happen and he will have a sentence. Until then, let people do their job without pressure and remember, innocent until proven guilty

FIVE YEARS after ONE sentence in front of a senator. And this nothingburger of a case will be tossed out next week. Disbar Lindsey Halligan for ramming this through.

Must be some of that performative Kabuki theatre Trump mentioned a few years back.

We’ll need military police to arrest Trump. Saying “the FBI is on the case ” is no longer a comfort.

Is this like…. Let summarize; shall we?
FBI agent: “I took oath, to the Constitution..”

a perp walk would be cool. we could then see how very smol FBI agents are and how tall and big Comey actually is. (he’s 6’8″)

They care more about appearances than anything else. How pathetic.

What kills me is that Trump’s SC nominees and some prospective cabinet members, eventually confirmed, could actually be charged with what Comey is accused of.

This case will be dismissed even before anything ever happens.

We have military leadership resigning. We have FBI Agents refusing to be involved.
Keep in mind these are people who are typically very on board with many fucked up things.
So for them to not be on board with this administrations goals and objectives it should be a major indicator that what’s happening is way beyond acceptable. Forget legal, we rose below that bar long ago.

“I stand by my previous testimony.”
That’s the lie he’s accused of telling. Not sure how that could possibly be a lie.

This will only serve to create more sympathy for Comey, more opposition for Trump, and help shine a light on the fascist takeover for those who still have their heads up their butts.
Ok-disaster2022 on
Remember Republicans you tu can be pero walked because you had enough of Trump’s bullshit and finally grew a backbone well after the time when it could matter.
This isn’t about the rule of law this is about Trump weaponizing the FBI to attack his detractors for personal reasons n

The FBI is as evil as the mafia. This is no surprise. A lack of integrity is a must to work for the FBI. They have no problem physically harming who they perceive as enemies, without regard to the law.
Prestigious-Car-4877 on
I really could not care less about what happens with this asshole. He gave us Trump.
But he’s a test to see how far they can go with the whole retribution concept. If his illegal “punishment” is accepted by the public they’ll move onto people like Schiff or AOC.
