- π A new report indicates federal prosecutors found evidence that former FBI Director James Comey authorized the leaking of classified information to reporters before the 2016 election.
- π FBI memos sent to the Senate and House Judiciary Committees reportedly show Comey's top lieutenants were aware of and involved in these leaks.
- π« Despite the evidence, multiple prosecutors declined to bring criminal charges against Comey.
Allegations of a "Protection Racket"
- π‘οΈ John Solomon describes the situation as a "protection racket" where wrongdoing by Democrats or their allies in government is allegedly covered up.
- π£οΈ Comey had previously testified that he and his lieutenants were not leaking, a claim contradicted by the discovered evidence.
- ποΈ The Justice Department, under the Trump administration, reportedly knew Comey's testimony was false, as they had evidence of Comey authorizing leaks through his chief of staff.
Potential Criminality and Statutes of Limitations
- βοΈ Leaking classified information without authorization is criminal, and statutes like the Internal Security Act of 1950 have a 10-year statute of limitations for such leaks.
- π΅οΈ Cash Patel initiated a criminal case investigating the weaponization of government over the last 10 years, viewing it as an ongoing conspiracy to protect Democrats and violate the civil liberties of Republicans.
- π The statute of limitations for conspiracy does not apply, offering potential avenues for prosecution.
Similarities to Other Investigations
- π§ The investigation into Comey's leaks parallels the investigation into Hillary Clinton's misuse of private email for government business.
- βοΈ Documents suggest Comey's chief of staff used private email to facilitate an unauthorized leak to the media, mirroring the actions investigated in the Clinton case.
- π« The US attorney's office in Washington reportedly declined to pursue the emails related to this incident, another instance of alleged political leniency.
