Former FBI Director James Comey is expecting to be indicted for lying to Congress, according to multiple reports.
Comey has been a staunch critic of Donald Trump‘s administration since the president fired him in 2017.
Sources tell MSNBC that he will be indicted in the ‘coming days’ – though the extent of the charges are unclear.
The Justice Department and FBI did not immediately respond to the Daily Mail’s request for comment.
Trump appointed Lindsey Halligan as acting US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia earlier this month and she is already preparing for two high profile indictments.
Her jurisdiction is the same district where Comey’s fellow Trump rival and New York Attorney General Letitia James is being investigated for a 2023 home purchase in Virginia.
Halligan, 36, served as the White House senior associate staff secretary before taking on her new role.
Meanwhile, Trump and his administration has been laying the groundwork to go after Comey and other political enemies ever since coming back into office for a second term.
