ALEXANDRIA, VA — At his arraignment on charges of making false statements and obstruction, former FBI Director James Comey produced a letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials testifying to the fact that he's totally innocent.
At his highly publicized hearing in a Virginia federal courtroom, Comey produced the letter as evidence to show that these trusted members of the intelligence community were just as confident in his innocence as they were in the fall of 2020 that Hunter Biden's laptop was a Russian misinformation operation.
"This is rock-solid proof of my innocence," Comey told the court as he held up the letter. "If the country has learned anything over the last five years, it's that our intelligence officials are above reproach and would never mislead anyone or be blatantly dishonest. That is why the court should take this letter as a clear and definitive sign that I am in no way guilty of any of the crimes with which I have been charged. It's got signatures and everything. Totally innocent."
The media described the letter as a "bombshell" that sealed Comey's defense against the charges. "There's nothing more concrete than former U.S. intelligence officials," said one reporter. "The intelligence community has never shown itself to be anything less than completely forthright, principled, and altruistic. The people who signed this letter would never lie. About anything. And Mr. Comey would never falsify anything to provide cover for himself. We've never seen any evidence of that. Ever."
At publishing time, Comey had helpfully offered to personally lead the investigation into whether or not he committed any crimes.

Those 51 just became co-conspirators.
Didn’t we all?
The Bee is not America’s Newspaper of Record for nothing. Let’s think of the fact that the Bee is on target way more than the NYT.
But in my defense, I'm old enough to remember during Clinton's presidency, it was common for Bill and Hill to say, "My administration has thoroughly investigated these allegations and have determined that I am completely innocent!"
And then the Fake News Media would come out and say, "The Clinton administration has thoroughly investigated these allegations and have determined that the Clintons are totally innocent!"
Stung by the BEE again!
lol
now to pull out that stinger...
LOL... Perjury is still perjury... You can have a million signatures, but the facts are the facts... Comey lied under oath. Period!
I'd have to see if Taylor Swift signed, if she did, that could influence the jury. /s
I think John Semmens is in the same boat. lol
They likely said that he has “all the classic earmarks” of innocence. Plausible deniability maintained.
