It is now well established that the FBI has become thoroughly and possibly irreparably corrupt and politicized, serving as a thuggish arm of the Leftist establishment rather than any kind of law enforcement agency. Its decline accelerated during the tenure of the intensely partisan Leftist apparatchik James Comey as FBI director, but in the six years since Donald Trump removed Comey from office amid a storm of controversy, the lanky corruptocrat has shown not the slightest hint of introspection, much less regret. Instead, he just went on MSNBC to warn that a new Trump administration could see the president weaponizing the justice system. Well, Comey certainly knows all about weaponizing federal agencies for partisan purposes.
Former Biden explainer and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki said to Comey, “You’ve said that Trump poses a near-existential threat to the rule of law, and, and this is something, similar language, that I hear privately from national security officials, some people you and I both know, who will say this, privately, about what a second term could mean. But tell me a little bit about the specifics of what he could try to do. What do you mean by that?”

The question was ridiculous, and the whole scenario was a charade. Now that the Russian Collusion hoax has been definitively exposed and the Democrats’ Jan. 6 “insurrection” scenario has been discredited, Psaki should have been asking Comey about the contempt for the rule of law of his Leftist friends and colleagues, not of Donald Trump. But for that, Psaki would have to be a genuine journalist, not a flack for the Leftist establishment playing the role of a journalist in order to fool gullible MSNBC viewers and throw red meat to the committed ideologues among their tiny audience.
Comey answered: “Well, think about what four years of a retribution presidency might look like. He could order the investigation and prosecution of individuals who he sees as enemies — I’m sure I’m on the enemies list — because the president constitutionally does oversee the Executive Branch entirely, which includes the Department of Justice, prosecutors and investigators. And so he could commission, direct, that individuals be pursued. He could also direct all kinds of other conduct that people would maybe take to court to try to stop, but who enforces court orders? Mostly the United States marshals service, which is in — part of the executive branch, and reports to the president. And so President Trump could say, ‘I don’t care what the Supreme Court says or these district judges say, I’m tellin’ the marshals service, Don’t enforce the court order.’”
Comey added that Trump’s nefarious powers to prosecute those who have destroyed our federal agencies and turned them into organs of authoritarian deep-state Leftism were going to be difficult to combat, because they were rooted in a flaw of the document that Leftists everywhere hate with burning intensity: the U.S. Constitution. “And so, our Constitution really does give a rogue president, which is what this would be, tremendous power to destroy,” he said. “And so that’s why I’m trying to warn people. Given the way he said he intends to operate if he’s reelected, this will be something we could never have imagined. Again, it seems like science fiction in a way, but it’s what another four years of Donald Trump really promises, which is why — people criticize CNN for their town hall; I want people to stare at the threat that we’re facing and understand that they cannot take the next election off.”
Hey, that’s a terrific point, Comey. I, too, want people to stare at the threat we’re facing and understand that they cannot take the next election off. If the American people want to see the threat that we’re facing and understand why the next election is so very important, all they have to do is take a look not at Donald Trump, but at James Comey. This sinister, hypocritical, and self-righteous party comrade has done damage to the FBI and the Justice Department that may never be repaired, and now he is afraid that Trump might hold him and his henchmen accountable. Note that he made it clear that, in the nightmare scenario he sketched out for Psaki, everything Trump might do would be constitutional. Leftists have made their disdain for the Constitution clear for years. Now Comey is impugning before it gets used against someone like… James Comey.
“ Well, think about what four years of a retribution presidency might look like.”
Err, I think the world knows what it looks like already.
Douglas Mackey certainly knows what it looks like.
The vindictive & petty scumbags in the DOJ decided the effective campaigner for Trump in 2016 was to be found guilty of something.
They then engineered backwards to find something, or invent anything to screw over an honest little guy. (They twisted a 1909 law like a pretzel & tried Mackey before a leftist jury.)
The same bullshit was done to Dinesh D’Souza under the B. Hussein’s administration. His technical infraction was campaign donations – also done by Rosie O’Donnell who wasn’t prosecuted (even though she tried to hide it from a search engine.)
Hence his real “crime” was his DVD documentary on Hillary.
The message is simple; keep your mouths shut, or else.
(Comey will be showing his virtue by voting for a grifting, retarded, serial liar in the employee of the CCP.)
The Constitution would never be used against him. It would be used for the American people. Only criminals would have to worry
Good point.
What does the left always say about illegal government intrusion/surveillance? “if you are not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about”
So what is the Super Patriot worrying over?
I didn’t know horseshiite could be piled 6’8″ high. Live and learn, I guess.
So, rogue F.B.I. operative James Comey fears a legal reckoning for his treachery. The thought of President Trump’s F.B.I. kicking down his door has left Comey sleepless. Ahhhh… Payback’s a female dog!
The money quote:
‘If Trump is elected he might weaponize the justice system against us just as we weaponized it against him.’
Oh say it ain’t so. Not the law. That’s unheard of. Only the Leftists can use the law for their own purposes.
It simply proves that Leftists just aren’t that bright.
I am really shocked that you would feel that way, Jim!
Comey better find some opaque black out drapes in Congress to hide behind.
When Comey left the FBI, he was hired to teach ethics. That is like hiring Jeffrey Dahmer to teach cooking.
LOL. Good one! I can’t stop laughing.
Marxist projection. They are afraid Trump will do to them what they did to him. Amazing.
Comey and the rest of the ilk collectively known as the Democratic Party are the people the founder’s warned us about. They have neither integrity or the commitment to the Constitution and rule of law. Time to take out the trash now or lose the nation to the statists. Can’t go the route we are on much longer.
Oh No-NOT the Constitution! Worse than Holy Water for that scumbag!
Washington is being run by an illegitimate regime, a crime syndicate, that make up its own rules and disregards the rule of law, and the constitution and that says it all! Most professors like Jonathan Hurley and Allan Dershowitz know what this takeover of the US government has done to the country, turning it into a Banana Republic, and they have commented on many shows about what’s going on.
This exchange between James Comey and Jen Psaki demonstrates that the totalitarian bureaucrats in the Deep State are terrified. If Donald Trump is elected in 2024, many if not most of the high ranking Deep State operatives in the federal bureaucracy (DOJ, FBI, DHS, et. a.) will be identified, removed, investigated, prosecuted and imprisoned. The Democrat Party and the American-raping globalists are going to rely heavily on state affiliated media and the corrupt federal courts to send Trump to his grave rather than to the White House. The utter terror felt by the left is evident by the ever growing savagery of the Democrat Party and its state affiliated media.
Indeed.
But honestly what can we, law abiding citizens, do in addition to being despair and commenting our frustrations in web sites that like one that let us write freely???
I see (and we all see) Canada, USA, and Europe going down the way Cuba & Venezuela did, while the population was left unprotected from criminals, with no recourses to Justice, their bank accounts & savings devalued 2000%, and ending up (whoever could) running away and leaving their own countries, and realizing now that THAT was only the beginning, since today ALL the so-called Free, Democratic, Western countries are becoming CUBA & VENEZUELA????
But Jimmy boy, that’s exactly what the Dems have done for the last 6 years.!!
Comey is setting the stage to enact another coup or worse against Trump, by establishing the pretense in advance- an “I told you so” for electing Trump.
Whine Whine Whine grow up sissy boy take the training wheels off your Go Cart
