Trump rages at ‘dirty cop’ Comey after FBI chief’s indictment on federal charges

Before heading off for a day at the Ryder Cup, Donald Trump unleashed a string of angry Truth Social posts aimed at former FBI Director James Comey, who was indicted Thursday by newly appointed U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan on federal charges. Trump, who has long sought Comey’s prosecution, used the news to revive his claim that the former FBI chief lied to Congress—calling it a “very simple, but IMPORTANT” lie that couldn’t be explained away.

Trump also preemptively attacked the legal process by blasting U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff, appointed by President Joe Biden, who was assigned to oversee the case. Labeling Comey a “dirty cop” and “destroyer of lives,” Trump insisted his onetime nemesis must now “pay a very big price.” The tirade capped off with Trump in all-caps rage branding Comey a “DIRTY COP” as he sought to rally his supporters before a day of golf.
