And an indictment now for James Comey, the former FBI director who spent so long abusing his power and by extension the American people, now facing an indictment of his own. Yesterday, the Eastern District of Virginia successfully securing two counts from a grand jury against James Comey. And I want to share the actual counts with you here, see if we can't take a look at the paperwork. Perhaps we can stare at it together. In this, we find false statements being made within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the United States Government. Honor. About September 30, 2020 in the Eastern District of Virginia, the defendant, James Comey did willfully and knowingly make a materially false, fictitious and fraudulent statement in a matter within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch. In other words, lied to Congress by falsely stating to a US Senator that was Ted Cruz during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that he, James Comey, hadn't authorized somebody else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports regarding an FBI investigation concerning what the indictment refers to as Person one. That statement was false because James Comey then and there knew he in fact had authorized Person 3 to serve as an anonymous source in news reports regarding an FBI investigation concerning person won. That was all in violation of the law. Additionally, this document goes on to say that count two, here he also is guilty of obstruction, according allegedly guilty of an obstruction of a congressional proceeding. Quote, on or abound September 30th of 2020 in the Eastern District of Virginia, the defendant, James Comey, did corruptly endeavor to influence, obstruct, and impede the due, proper exercise of the power of inquiry under which an investigation was being had before the Senate Judiciary Committee by making false and misleading statements before that committee. Ooh, this is. I need you to think about this for a moment and how wonderful and how thoughtful this prosecution is. Look at this. He. They say that he did this in the Eastern District of Virginia in the Eastern District of Virginia. Now, how is it that you can testify before, before Congress and do something in the Eastern District of Virginia? Aha. Here's what happened in 2020. I played the clips for you yesterday on this program. James Comey was testifying remotely. This was. This was September of 2020. Remember, Congress was taking remote testimony at this point because of COVID And so Comey was in the Eastern District of Virginia when he gave his testimony. So we get to bypass a D.C. grand jury process in order to go after Comey, because guess where he did this? It was remote testimony. Remote testimony. This is so thoughtful and so wonderful and so excellent that the Trump administration was able to do this. You know, the D.C. grand jury process by now not going to work out. And the reason for that is because that grand jury totally rigged those grand juries. Completely rigged. Earlier this year, we had multiple assaults on federal law enforcement officers in the District of Columbia caught on tape. D.C. grand juries are not prosecuting. They're just letting it happen because they're Democrats and they don't in any way want Democrats who are protesting the Trump administration, including by assaulting federal law enforcement, to be held accountable. So this had to get outside of D.C. and I told you, I want to Say, months ago to keep an eye on Virginia. Virginia is a space in where. Where this can happen. And guess where it's happening now. The Eastern District of Virginia. But, boy, this was. This was not an easy fight. And you saw the pieces of this spill out over the weekend, because the Eastern District of Virginia, we remember we had a different guy, Eric Seibert, who was the U.S. attorney going into last weekend of the Eastern District. And that guy was endorsed by Mark Warner. He was endorsed by Tim Kaine, and he's been refusing to prosecute Letitia James. By the way, stay on guard, Letitia James. This is probably coming for you, too. And he was refusing to prosecute James Comey. And the game that these guys have been playing is we didn't have enough evidence. We just didn't have enough evidence to support a prosecution, so we couldn't carry it forward. That's bullshit. And we know that it was bullshit. And the way we know is not merely that President Trump and the Justice Department has a much better US Attorney in there now, Lindsey Halligan, doing the job, but we know because the grand jury actually agreed on two of the counts. Now, there was a third count, reportedly, that the grand jury considered and didn't bring against James Comey, but they did move forward with two of the three counts. And that's because the grand jury felt there was sufficient evidence for a majority of the grand jurors to vote for it, to support it. And now it moves forward. And now what does that mean for James Comey? Comey gets it. Comey now gets the treatment that he so gleefully tried to serve to all these members of the Trump administration that he and the rest of these lefties imposed on the Trump administration. And I'll tell you right away, you know, last night, as this was breaking, I posted on social media that it was happening. I'm like, look at this. James Comey's being indicted. It's finally happening. And I instantly got some responses from some people, you know, just people who care about the country and things like, you know, there's a lot of naysaying out there. People are very pessimistic. No matter what happens, they get pessimistic. And I get it. You have every reason to. To be cynical. But stuff like, oh, who cares? He's never gonna serve a day in jail anyway. Nothing ever happens. Blah, blah, blah. Well, hold on a second. First of all, nothing ever happens. The guy's just been indicted. This is the Trump administration doing what we elected them to do, which is to hold people Like James Comey accountable. One, two. I just want you to remember how much the process is the punishment. Think about what it takes in order to fight back against the vast resources of the federal government. We know this because we saw how many Trump officials go through this, how many people in Donald Trump's orbit, how many January 6th defendants. Every dollar that James Comey has to spend defending himself now is a dollar that he's gonna spend in absolute misery. And he earned it. He earned it. So the idea that nothing is happening to James Comey. Comey is already garbage. Something big is happening to James Comey. His life is being upended by this, rightfully so. It's long overdue. And now he's got to deal with at least a very small part of what he imposed on a lot of other people. He's got to live with the pain of this process. And you ask anybody, ask anybody who's been on the receiving end of a federal government prosecution. Just think about it. I just want you to back up for a second and think about what that means. The federal government has a bottomless pit of resources with which to go after you. Endless resources. Massive amounts of Prosecutors, investigators, the FBI, the United States Department of Justice, the U.S. attorneys, all coming after you with unlimited resources, unlimited investigative of tools and abilities. They can interview anybody. They can go absolutely haywire on you. What do you have? If you're James Comey, what do you have? Well, you got whatever money's in your bank account, however you secured that money, you got the money you're gonna spend on your lawyers. Obviously you've got the media throwing in with you here. James Comey's got an unusual advantage there. But beyond that, he's resource starved relative to the government. This is gonna be a slog for him. That is not gonna leave him in any way unscathed. Now he's gonna go through it. And again, well deserved, Very well deserved. Now, the reaction to all of this is, has been, has been interesting to watch, some of the great reactions to it. First and foremost, you get the, the, the U.S. attorney General Pam Bondi coming out with a statement immediately on this subject saying, rightfully so, ladies and gentlemen, nobody is above the law. Nobody is above the law. Today's indictment 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. Nobody's above the law. Isn't it nice to hear somebody say that legitimately? Isn't that nice to hear somebody use that expression? To accurately depict somebody who deserves a prosecution and not a persecution. What a breath of fresh air that is. Meanwhile, FBI Director Cash Patel, who occupies the position that James Comey once unfortunately held, he too is reacting to all of this. He said today your FBI took another step in its promise of full accountability. For far too long previous corrupt leadership, James Comey and their enablers weaponized federal law enforcement, damaging once proud institutions and severely eroding public trust. Every day we continue the fight to earn that trust back. And under my leadership, this FBI will confront the problem head on. Nowhere was this politicization of law enforcement more blatant than than during the Russiagate hoax. A disgraceful chapter in history that we continue to investigate and expose. Everyone, especially those in positions of power, will be held to account no matter their purge. No one is above the law. Nobody. James Comey, not above the law. And then our friend Dan Bongino. Look, there's no secret to this audience. This audience is dialed as dialed in on this subject as you can possibly be. There's a reason that Dan Bongino decided to go to the FBI, that he decided to change every aspect of his life to be a part of this mission. There's a reason for that. There's a reason that he has stayed in the FBI. No matter how much drama is being reported on the outside, whatever infighting people claim is going on, there's a reason that he's dealing with this headache day in and day out inside of that agency. And it's not because he thinks that that mission is going to be fruitless. It's not because he thinks that at the end of this, nothing is going to happen. It's because he truly believes sincerely in his heart based on all of the evidence in front of him. I think he. I think he would refer to that as receipts, all the receipts that he's seeing that accountability is achievable. And yesterday is clear evidence of that accountability. James Comey indicted. Here's Dan Bongino's reaction. When Director Patel and I took on our leadership positions in the FBI, we promised the American people accountability. Promises matter. He posted that at 7pm I'll remind you, that was Eastern time. 6. It was the 6pm Eastern hour last night when this news broke that James Comey is being indicted. Dan is there for a reason, and this is clearly that reason. This is one of those huge reasons that he's decided to stay in that job and to do it so well. So that's the update there. Now, what I would like to see Is the same thing. You'd like to see the perp walk, right, Justin? We want to see perp walks. Uh, we'll see. The media is reporting today that the Comey thing is going to be. He just. He. He goes to the court himself or something. But wouldn't it be nice to get this image, you know, some handcuffs And I've got an idea, Justin. What if it was Dan? What if Dan just strapped the handcuffs on this guy and dragged him in for this? You know, could you imagine it? I could imagine it. I love the AI photo we have, by the way. Dan is somehow taller than James Comey. Comey's like, you know, 40ft tall. They're going to need to strap a couple pairs of handcuffs together to bring them in. But. But, yeah, no, wouldn't that be great? That would be awesome. And. And I'd venture a guess that. That Dan would be very eager to volunteer to do this particular job. It would be wonderful. Would be wonderful. At any rate, just remember, it is true. Yes. Somebody said in the chat, thanks for the reminder about the process being the punishment. The process is the punishment. No question about this. Also, a conviction and a sentence would be a punishment. To be clear, there's no question yet this thing should ride to the bloody end and that he should be convicted at the end of this. That's, of course, the pursuit of justice. We need all of that. But I'm just saying, don't discount the value in securing what the left was so eager to secure over and over and over again, which is the, the humiliation, the bankrupting, the. The destruction of their political opponents. I mean, come on, guys, just remember what the left subjected the President of the United States to. Just remember what they put him through. And think about, for. For a moment. I want you to pause on the what they put him through. They put Donald J. Trump through every prosecution imaginable. They went to every district where Democrats control the whole game, and they threw the weight of every government they could at him, whether it was Fulton County, Georgia, or the District attorney in Manhattan or the State of New York or the federal government. And paneling a grand jury in Washington, D.C. under Jack Smith. They threw everything they could at him. And why did they do that chat? Why did. In the midst of a heated election, going into this 2024 election, did the left throw every prosecution imaginable at the man whose mug shot I'm now displaying on your screen? Rumble.com. vince, for those of you who want to see it, why did they do that? The answer was to prevent this from happening. The last thing the left wanted is the man that they had taken out returning. The last thing they wanted was this guy being in a position to hold them accountable. And he's back. He's back now, and he is in charge of the executive branch. And, yes, that includes the United States Department of Justice. The left is making a big deal out of the fact that President Trump keeps noticing all of this, that he says out loud that these people should be brought to justice. How dare you say that. How dare he? Why wouldn't he? He lived through it. He was the victim of malicious and invented prosecutions, in other words, persecutions. Why wouldn't the victim of those crimes, who's now in a position to do something about it, be very attentive to the prosecutions of the people who went out of their way to hurt our justice system, to undermine our Constitution and to hurt the rest of us. President Trump is. Has been elected for a whole bunch of reasons, and this is clearly one of them. So now he's back. Now he's back and they're prosecuting this guy. Um, we've got. That is James Comey. We've got a lot of reactions pouring in. I just shared with you some of the good guys, but next I want to share with you some of the bad guys to include James Comey himself. Comey, as is his custom, of course, because he is really a teenage girl trapped in an overgrown man's body. He recorded a selfie video for this occasion and shared it, complete with a ring light and everything. He. He framed it up and he wanted to share a selfie video with you. So we'll do that in just a moment. We'll mock it and we'll talk a little bit more about all of the other people who are reacting. There's a particular senator with a pencil neck who's very much sweating right now about all of this. He didn't think that any of this would ever happen. And, man, I'm glad it did. I'm so glad it did. A lot more ahead on this edition of Vince. Hey, fall is planting season. You know, fall is planting season.
