Maurene Comey wasn’t the only Comey who had a bad week … her father James Comey might face criminal prosecution in connection with the 2016 Russia gate scandal.
Here’s the deal … on Friday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard dropped a bombshell report alleging the Obama administration manipulated intelligence related to Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Gabbard was spitting fire in her statement … accusing former Obama officials of engaging in a “treasonous conspiracy” — adding said her office was turning over evidence to the DOJ for possible criminal referrals.
She’s name-checking some guys who were at the highest reaches of government at the time … include former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director Comey.
Gabbard said in a statement that she was forwarding the vast amount of records collected to the DOJ “to deliver the accountability that President Trump, his family, and the American people deserve.”
A whole bunch of people got up in arms online … and, they got #arrestObama trending on X — not the first time that’s been called for by internet trolls, to be fair.
The update was met with skepticism by others … since it’s coming at the same time as the Trump Admin is getting skewered for its handling of the alleged Epstein files.
As for Maurene … she’s outside the federal government looking in at this point — ’cause the Justice Department let her go after she and her cohorts weren’t able to get a jury to convict Diddy on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
Looks like the Comeys headaches aren’t over just yet … stay tuned.
