Judge Dismisses Comey, James Indictments
The Spin
Anti-Trump narrative
Trump's revenge prosecutions against his political enemies have finally been exposed as lawless power grabs. By rushing to bring the case against Comey, which itself showed the political nature of the case, the president installed a completely unqualified loyalist to prosecute critics after career prosecutors refused. Trump circumvented constitutional requirements and weaponized the justice system.
Pro-Trump narrative
These prosecutions were absolutely legitimate cases derailed by legal technicalities. A Clinton-appointed judge dismissed valid indictments against two vocal Trump critics on procedural grounds, allowing them to escape accountability for serious charges, ironically including fraud, which James falsely accused Trump of doing. Once appealed, these criminals will be indicted again.
