The Justice Department ’s indictment of former FBI Director James Comey last week marked the start of what President Donald Trump and his allies say will be a broader reckoning for figures who, in their view, abused government power to target him during and after his first term.
Just days before the charges were filed, Trump took to Truth Social, urging Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute Comey, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA), and New York Attorney General Letitia James (D). The next day, Comey was indicted on two felony counts: making false statements and obstructing a congressional investigation.
