James Comey Indicted for Lying to Congress and Obstructing Trump-Russia Probe Investigation

James Comey, once hailed as a “guardian of democracy” by the Left, is now heading to federal court this time as a criminal defendant.

The disgraced former FBI Director is set to be arraigned Wednesday morning in the Eastern District of Virginia, after being indicted on two felony counts: making false statements to Congress and obstructing a congressional investigation tied to the Trump-Russia witch hunt.

Comey is accused of deliberately misleading Congress during his 2020 testimony about the FBI’s now-infamous “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation the same baseless probe that tormented President Donald Trump for years and falsely painted him as a Kremlin agent.

According to the indictment:

• Comey lied about authorizing FBI personnel to act as anonymous sources to the media — a claim prosecutors say is demonstrably false.

• He also obstructed a congressional proceeding by withholding key information about the FBI’s handling of classified material and its coordination with external operatives.

• The charges stem from the DOJ's long-running investigation into whether Comey abused his power to undermine a sitting president.

Attorney General Pam Bondi made it clear. “No one is above the law… This indictment reflects the Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse power accountable.”

Even FBI Director Kash Patel appointed to clean up the agency after its Russiagate disgrace weighed in forcefully:

“Previous corrupt leadership weaponized federal law enforcement… Comey’s indictment is just the beginning. We’re still investigating how deeply this politicization ran.”

This all comes as new reports reveal former CIA Director John Brennan is also under criminal investigation in connection with the Clinton-linked origins of the Trump-Russia hoax.

The so-called “Crossfire Hurricane” probe, launched in 2016 under Comey’s leadership, was supposed to be a legitimate counterintelligence operation. But in reality, it became a partisan tool fueled by the Clinton campaign and Democrat operatives seeking to delegitimize Donald Trump before he even took office.

Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 report exposed what millions of Americans already suspected:

• The FBI ignored clear intelligence that Hillary Clinton’s team was behind efforts to manipulate the Bureau for political gain.

• The FBI rushed to investigate Trump while turning a blind eye to credible evidence against Clinton.

• Durham concluded that the FBI "failed to act on what should have been... a clear warning sign" of political weaponization.

Let’s not forget: the Mueller investigation, which stemmed directly from Comey’s actions, found no evidence of collusion between Trump and Russia after 22 months and $32 million in taxpayer dollars.

Yet for years, Comey smugly positioned himself as a paragon of virtue while pushing a false narrative that tore the country apart.

Now he wants the public to believe he’s the victim. “My heart is broken for the Department of Justice,” Comey said in a video posted after the indictment, blaming Trump and portraying himself as a martyr for "standing up" to the former president.

But Americans aren’t buying it. The only thing Comey stood up for was his own career and a corrupt political agenda.

This indictment is long overdue. And if justice is to mean anything, it must apply equally even to the self-righteous bureaucrats who once weaponized the very system they were trusted to uphold.
