INTRODUCTION
Count One of the indictment seeks to punish Mr. Comey for seconds of testimony he
gave in response to compound and ambiguous questioning. But longstanding principles of
criminal law make clear that the government cannot prove a violation of 18 U.S.C. ยง 1001(a)(2)
unless it establishes that the defendant gave false answers to precise questions. Here, the indictment conspicuously omits the lengthy, confusing questions that prompted Mr. Comey's testimony. Specifically, after speaking for more than a minute, Senator Ted Cruz asked Mr.
Comey to recall statements he had made three years earlier and to simultaneously address
statements that Senator Cruz incorrectly claimed were made by Andrew McCabe, the former Deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI. In doing so, Senator Cruz never indicated that he wanted Mr. Comey to address the statements or activities of any person except for Mr. McCabe. Viewed in context, Senator Cruz's questions cannot form the basis for a violation of Section 1001(a)(2) because they were fundamentally ambiguous. And, regardless, Mr. Comey's answers to them were literally true.
Count One thus must be dismissed under
Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 12(b)(3)(A). Count Two should be dismissed for the same
reason to the extent it rests on those same alleged false statements, and for the independent
reason that it deprives Mr. Comey of his right to notice of the charge against him.

The government produced more than 85,000 pages of discovery that include, among other
things, some (but not all) of the materials obtained from wide-ranging FBI investigations across
different districts and numerous articles, some of which quote Mr. Richman by name. The
voluminous discovery provides no greater clarity to Mr. Comey for any aspect of Count One.

Lindsey the Insurance Lawyer did not provide Comey all the case files for the earlier investigations.

ICE continues to make false reports to the CPD to harass people, including elected officials. This is a crime. Mayor Johnson and Governor Pritzker need to set up clear instructions to demand clear information by 911 dispatchers and cops, and then prosecute criminal acts by ICE.

Please note what happened here. By challenging Trump to pause his terror raids for Halloween, Pritzker forced Kristi Noem to come out *for* continuing to traumatize kids. Polarizing these debates draws attention/forces MAGA depravity into the light.

Trump Creates Another Hero Myth About Himself, This Time Making His Aides Sound Like Fools The president now claims that staff at his own agencies couldnโ€™t figure out where new revenues are coming from until he told them to โ€œcheck the tariff shelf.โ€

NEW -- Usually Trump's "sir" stories just have beefy grown men crying because of their gratitude for him.

This one one instead makes his own staff in the WH, at Treasury, at USTR and at Customs sound like ignorant fools who know nothing about their jobs.

More big news: the Senate just passed my bipartisan resolution to end Trump's global tariffs. This is a huge win and shows how unpopular Trump's tariffs really are. Now it's time for Mike Johnson to abandon his 6 week vacation and get this passed in the House.

The fraudster known as Dr. Phil has LOST his bankruptcy case - a judge has ordered the proceeding to switch to a Chapter 7 (versus Chapter 11), which is LIQUIDATION. Deleting incriminating texts, plundering the company's worth - he's always been a charlatan; it's now confirmed.
