re: Comey indictment misquotes Comey. Bad form for a prosecution involving what was said.

You've already shown how bad at analysis you are. No need to keep digging that hole, brother.

So in 2022 he claimed what he said in 2017 was true, knowing what he said in 2017 was a lie, and you're saying that's not perjury?


Point to where in 2022 he said that his 2017 statement was true.

Strange that you attempt to be as well.

If he stands by the testimony he gave in 2017, you would have to twist yourself into double knots to make aperjury charge stick.

This is beyond American Samoa Law School stuff

Yeah - I agree with you.

Good criminal defense attorneys will/should take their time trying to find defects in the indictment, and this is one.

Had the SOL not run out the government could amend the indictment, but it has run out.

But, has Comey not already argued this? I would think this would be the first thing to bring up.

Perhaps they are stringing this along to further embarrass the Administration because the shite I saw today about the Grand Jury looks embarrassing as hell.

words have meaning. A jury would likely know what his words mean. Your mental gymnastics aside.


Where did you go to law school? Stick to digging ditches. Nothing wrong with that.

The question of perjury today seems to be if Comey was untruthful that he stands by his comments in 2017 though.
If that case is brought before a DC jury looking to acquit, Comey probably walks. If the jury is interested in justice being done, and if Comey lied in earlier testimony, then he'll go straight to jail.

This is almost assuredly the reason why.

This is political more than criminal and they're playing the game (and winning so far).

If they can get a big win early on it will hurt future prosecutions that can be spun as political vengeance as well.

Also it presents multiple avenues for appeal processes that can take years to run out the clock for a 2028 DEM victory (if he's worried). Trump laid out that playbook from the last admin pretty well.

No, I’m spot on and everyone knows it. The problem you have is that when you are retarded, you don’t know it. I’ve been trying to help you become aware of your mental challenges for years but you can’t seem to understand the extent of your difficulties. I’ll keep trying though because I care, maybe one day you’ll have a breakthrough

I don’t think that is what it is. Saying what he said in 2017 was truthful is a lie. “Standing by your testimony” is saying what you said was truthful. Nothing vicarious about it.

You sound like AUSA Haligan telling the grand jury they can look at evidence they weren't presented that will be totally strong at trial (allegedly)

Easy. “I stand by my testimony”. What do you think a jury would think that means?

The allegedly is the most important word in your post. Why was her statement redacted?

That's not what he said.

He said he stands by that testimony. Like I said earlier, if they can find a patriots.win account of his where he's like "Guys I totally don't believe in my 2017 testimony" then THAT would show his "I stand by" testimony was perjury (as he was lying about standing by it).

It was a shitty question by Cruz acting clever and a crafty response (that I doubt was extemporaneous) by Comey. I imagine this is why every other attorney ran from the case when that's all they had.

I'm assuming, and could be wrong, it involved GJ stuff that isn't fit for public consumption.

Which words, specifically or are you hoping ?

Trying to get past unprosecutable comments to now be prosecutable would be a helluva contortion for Bondi and her lap dog

I can assure you that I did not attend American Samoa University School of Law

I don't know. In the give in take in the other thread about the shocking Grand Jury lapses, I read the indictment again. Then, I looked at the transcript.

I can't believe that a high school journalism student, much less a federal prosecutor, would swear that "On this date the defendant said X," and then it turns out that the defendant did NOT say X on that date.
