    “It appears that a mistake has been made. Please politely refrain from further mistakes. Another mistake, not good, please commit no further mistakes. It appears you just violated 3 of Comey’s constitutional rights, try not to do that again. You lied to the grand jury 5 times just there, mistakes happen…” ad nauseum

    Trying to lock Comey away so he can’t say “yeah that’s not the Epstein files” when the “Epstein files” are finally released.
