The Department of Justice has indicted former FBI director James Comey, the first in a series of potential charges against Trump critics after the US president demanded that the attorney general launch swift prosecutions against his political enemies.
“No one is above the law,” attorney general Pam Bondi wrote on X. “[It] reflects this Department of Justice’s commitment to holding those who abuse positions of power accountable for misleading the American people. We will follow the facts in this case.”
