This is a reckoning of James Comey’s own making — and Dems for weaponizing justice system first
NY Post ^ | 09/28/2025 | Miranda Devine

Posted on 09/28/2025 11:45:12 PM PDT by know.your.why

In the wake of James Comey’s indictment, Democrats like Richard Blumenthal and Eric Swalwell are issuing dark warnings with a straight face that “what goes around comes around” and that anyone who cooperates with Donald Trump’s “vengeance prosecutions” will face retribution when Dems are back in charge.

But their threats fall on deaf ears because they started it. Democrats long ago weaponized the justice system against their political opponents.

Let us count the ways.

On Joe Biden’s watch, Trump faced four separate indictments with 88 criminal charges; more than 1,500 Trump supporters were arrested and over-prosecuted in the J6 investigation; Trump advisers Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro were jailed for contempt of Nancy Pelosi’s J6 star chamber; Trump adviser Roger Stone was arrested at dawn in a heavy-handed SWAT raid; Comey entrapped Trump National Security Advisor Gen. Michael Flynn; the DOJ, FBI and IRS covered up Biden corruption and jailed whistleblowers Gal Luft and Alexander Smirnov. To name a few.

Conservatives of every stripe were under legal assault. The FBI spied on school board meetings and Catholics at Latin Mass.

FBI agents were subjected to politically motivated loyalty tests to weed out those suspected of supporting Trump.

They kicked this party off. And enough crap about being “the bigger person”. We’ve been fighting with one hand tied behind our backs for long enough. We tried being reasonable, and it got us shot, stabbed, indicted and murdered. I can’t speak for anyone else. But I’m done being a victim.

Miranda Devine is a true patriot and has the heart of a lioness.
ALSO according to Daniel Flynn the FBI was never able to produce the 302 that showed he was "lying".

The “302” to this day, has still never been found or seen by me

Where are the J6 tapes? Thousands of cell phones recorded the event, not to mention the governments own security cameras. Where’s the footage?

Looks like we are at the point where every outgoing president will have to give himself and his entire administration a preemptive pardon.

“And enough crap about being “the bigger person”.”

Exactly. Sometimes, 2 wrongs DO make a right. They have to take their own medicine.

We also need not to forget the general weaponization of government, ah la Operation Chokepoint:

I am confident that when they created the FDIC. they did not have in mind harrassing disfavored businesses.

done being a victim.

The Democrats set all of the apparatus up and put in in motion using deception and lies for motivation. Now that they are not in charge, they are suffering a change of direction that is now purposefully fueled by truth.
