flag Former FBI Director James Comey charged with lying to Congress over 2020 testimony; his team claims political retaliation by Trump.

flag Former FBI Director James Comey faces federal charges for allegedly lying to Congress and obstructing a proceeding over his 2020 testimony, with his legal team seeking dismissal, claiming the prosecution was politically driven by former President Donald Trump to retaliate for Comey’s public criticisms. flag They allege Trump pressured the Justice Department, forced the resignation of a career prosecutor, and installed White House aide Lindsey Halligan—lacking prosecutorial experience—as interim U.S. Attorney, who indicted Comey just before the statute of limitations expired. flag Comey’s lawyers argue the case violates due process and equal protection, calling it vindictive and unconstitutional. flag Prosecutors have sought to disqualify Comey’s lead attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald, over alleged media leaks from 2017, a claim his team denies, saying it’s an attempt to undermine his defense. flag The case remains pending before U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff.
