The Department of Justice (DOJ) is contemplating filing fresh charges against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) following the dismissal of previous charges against them by a federal judge in November.
In late September, Comey faced charges for allegedly providing false statements to Congress and interfering with a congressional probe. Similarly, James was accused of bank fraud and giving false information to a financial institution in early October. Both individuals denied the allegations.
As reported by RedState, Judge Cameron McGowan Currie dismissed these cases, citing that Lindsey Halligan, the interim U.S. Attorney responsible for the charges, was appointed unconstitutionally.
This decision was unrelated to the evidence or arguments of the case. Nevertheless, Comey publicly proclaimed his innocence, stating, “I’m innocent.”
On the other hand, James responded with even greater enthusiasm, asserting, “I remain fearless in the face of these baseless charges as I continue fighting for New Yorkers every single day.”
James was even more celebratory in her remarks, stating, “I remain fearless in the face of these baseless charges as I continue fighting for New Yorkers every single day.”
But the victory laps for the duo may have been premature. Reuters is reporting that the DOJ “could seek new charges against Comey and James as soon as this week.”

Pass the Popcorn: Kash Patel Has Intriguing News About Comey Case and Those ‘Burn Bags’
CNN, citing sources familiar with the situation at the DOJ, reports that an indictment against Comey could be presented by the end of this week. At the same time, it’s less clear how swiftly James’ indictment might be presented.
Still, the outlet notes that “no matter what, prosecutors will likely present new indictments” against the pair to grand juries in the Eastern District of Virginia.
FBI Director Kash Patel, in an interview with the Epoch Times last week, signaled that while the DOJ was appealing the dismissal, Comey could still be facing “numerous options to proceed” in bringing him to justice.
“So we’re not done,” Patel predicted. “I would say stay tuned for right after Thanksgiving, and you’ll see multiple responses, in my opinion.”

Comey had insisted during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in September of 2020 that he had not “authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports” regarding the Trump Russia investigation.
His former deputy, Andrew McCabe, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) stated during the hearing, had “publicly and repeatedly stated that he leaked information to the Wall Street Journal and that you were directly aware of it and that you directly authorized it.”
Challenged with the question of who was lying based on those contradictions, Comey said he stands by his testimony that he had “never authorized anyone to leak.”
President Trump, speaking within hours of Comey’s initial indictment, claimed the disgraced former director got himself into trouble by making a false statement.
Comey and McCabe’s statements are irreconcilably contradictory.
Whoever is lying under oath is committing a federal crime — and that’s what Comey has been indicted for.

Meanwhile, James’ indictment centered on allegations of mortgage fraud, with evidence suggesting she made false or misleading statements in property records and loan applications.
