Key Discussion Points & Insights

2. Judge Dismisses Charges Against James Comey & Letitia James
-
[03:36] John Solomon: Charges dismissed due to improper appointment of the prosecutor, Lindsay Halligan, meaning indictments could be brought again.

-
[03:36] James Comey: Responds, suggesting political motivations:
- "I'm grateful that the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence and incompetence..."
- "...a message has to be sent that the president of the United States cannot use the Department of Justice to target his political enemies."

- Highlights high energy costs, pipeline issues, and Governor Newsom’s focus on “green” policy despite consumer pain.
