Comey’s attorney told the judge he has plans to bring 4 separate motions to dismiss the case, on 4 separate grounds.
selective and vindictive prosecution
Lindsey Halligan was not properly appointed as the US attorney, so she has no authority to charge the case.
Abuse of grand jury, i.e. the indictment is invalid because the Halligan violated the very loose rules that exist when presenting the case to the grand jury.
outrageous government conduct. Who knows what that is.
I was surprised he didn’t move to dismiss right there at the arraignment for failure to state an offense.
The prosecutors said they have a bunch of classified evidence they have to sort through. The judge did not like that. There’s no reason for anything to be classified in this case. Comey’s alleged lie was in public to Congress on CSPAN. And he was talking about unclassified stuff.
So this classified documents stuff seems to be a delaying tactic, because these guys have no idea what they’re going to do with discovery. And I’ve heard that eastern district of VA is called the “rocket docket” because the judges like to move fast. They don’t like delays.
sensationalist clickbait headline. sounds like theyre going to try and do a ‘logical’ defense even though it will probably be a kangaroo court whose only goal is revenge on behalf of the rapist, trump.
Comey didn’t force Clinton to ignore the rust belt and ignore the demands of voters on the fence about her. Clinton is the only person that caused Clinton to lose. And it was her pied piper strategy that resulted in billions of free advertising for Trump.
I think it’s this? Not positive. It might be that they haven’t been told what they’re charged with too.
“My family and I have known for years that there are costs for standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn’t imagine ourselves living any other way,” he said in a video posted to social media last month.
“We will not live on our knees and you shouldn’t either.”
What’s the “scorched earth” part of this? I read the article but I guess it went over my head.

We should start referring to trump as a therapist.

“Another motion will be also filed challenging the legality of prosecutor Lindsay Halligan.”
In other words
“Your case is invalid and the person bringing the case isn’t qualified.”
Ha! Using the law. Those scheming MAGAts are bound to admit defeat now!
The Daily Beast writes quite exaggerated, clickbaity headlines
Hyperbole to whitewash over the facts that Comey helped Trump get elected the first time.
Comey didn’t force Clinton to ignore the rust belt and ignore the demands of voters on the fence about her. Clinton is the only person that caused Clinton to lose. And it was her pied piper strategy that resulted in billions of free advertising for Trump.
fucking Daily beat off.
