The decision by President Donald Trump’s Justice Department to push for the indictment of former FBI director James Comey is unlikely to result in a conviction, Fox News legal expert Andrew McCarthy has said.
Comey, whom Trump fired in May 2017, was indicted by a grand jury Thursday on charges of making a false statement to Congress and obstructing its proceedings, relating to testimony he gave to the Senate Judiciary Committee in September 2020 about the bureau’s investigation into Trump’s alleged ties to Russia four years earlier.
