Attorney General Pam Bondi’s own staff fume at James Comey indictment: ‘Worst abuses in DOJ history’

Staffers under Attorney General Pam Bondi have branded the indictment of former FBI director James Comey one of the “worst abuses” in the Justice Department’s history, according to a report.

Comey, who led the FBI from 2013 until 2017 when President Donald Trump fired him, is accused of making false statements and obstructing a congressional proceeding in September 2020, according to Thursday’s indictment. He’s denied any wrongdoing. If convicted, he could face up to five years behind bars.
