Matt Taibbi on Jim Comey: “Think of the National Security Implications of Implying that Your Own President is a Spy for a Foreign Country!… You Cannot Let That Go On”

Investigative journalist Matt Taibbi joined Jesse Watters on Friday night to discuss the James Comey indictments.

Taibbi blasted Comey for leaking false documents to the leftist press accusing President Trump of being a Russian spy. This was something Comey KNEW was factually incorrect and yet he took these actions to take down a sitting US President.

The criminal charges against Comey are much more serious than what the media is reporting!

In a previous time in American history Comey would be hung for treason.

Matt Taibbi: “People have to remember what is the substance of these lies? What were they for? These news stories that were put out there that were leaked to the press, the thrust of them was that Donald Trump was under the throes of a foreign government. He was a Russian agent.

Think of the national security implications of implying that your own president is a spy for a foreign country.

Would that be tolerated in any normal country?

You cannot let that go on. You can’t have an FBI director doing these kinds of things and engaging these sorts of manipulations and lying to Congress about it and getting away with it.”

Jesse Watters: Yeah, he basically framed him as a traitor. What’s the punishment for treason? We all know what that is. I mean, this is the worst thing you can possibly do…

Matt Taibbi: One thing I think we’ve learned during the Russiagate period is that James Comey has a peculiar vanity that I think is often his undoing.

He often thinks that he’s being clever when he’s not. He often thinks that he’s showing tremendous rectitude when he’s actually looking like a phony on television.

The more exposure that he gets for himself, I think actually the more it will redound to Trump’s benefit.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s good if he’s on television more during this period.

School District Superintendent Raked in MILLIONS Before ICE Arrest

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts after allegedly fleeing when agents arrived to enforce a deportation order. 

Roberts, originally from Guyana, has been under a final deportation order since May 2024. Despite that order, he continued to lead Iowa’s largest school district until his arrest this week.

What makes this case even more alarming is not only that Roberts remained in office unlawfully, but that he was paid handsomely for doing so. 

His current base salary exceeded $180,000 per year, and district officials were preparing to raise his base pay to $270,000. Over the course of his tenure, that means Roberts could have earned millions of dollars in taxpayer money while residing in the country illegally.

The district released a short statement claiming they had “no information” about the circumstances of his arrest. That explanation does not change the facts. 

Federal records make clear that Roberts was under orders of removal. Yet the school board allowed him to remain in charge, responsible for nearly 30,000 students and one of the state’s largest budgets.

This is not the first controversy involving Roberts. He was previously detained in connection with carrying a firearm, though authorities never provided full details. That earlier incident was first noted in reports months ago, but new information about his contract and salary has raised the level of concern. 

Parents and taxpayers now have to ask: how was an individual under deportation orders allowed not only to keep his job but to receive a six-figure salary funded by public money?

The political response has been predictable. Protests are already being organized to defend Roberts, portraying him as the victim rather than the perpetrator. That narrative ignores a basic truth. 

A superintendent facing deportation should not be rewarded with a salary approaching $200,000, nor should a school board prepare to give him an even larger raise.

Families deserve better than a system that treats lawbreaking as a minor administrative detail.

YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS UP: One of Comey’s “Criminal” Leaks Was to His Current Attorney Fitzgerald

You just can’t make this stuff up.  In 2019 we presented an inventory of Comey’s “criminal” leaks.  One person on the list was Comey’s friend Patrick Fitzgerald who is now representing Comey in his case. 

“Dirty Cop” Jim Comey was fired from his position as FBI Director in 2017.  On Thursday night Comey was charged with two crimes.

Comey is a dirty cop who went after President Trump in an effort to remove him from office.  Comey, Barack Obama, John Brennan, James Clapper, Andrew Weissmann and many more were accomplices in this attempted coup.  To this date, they have not been held accountable for this historic, unprecedented and massive crime on the American people.

Comey was FBI Director and was fired.  He also was found leaking documents in an effort to bring down President Trump.  We believed these leaks were criminal based on the information below.

Regardless, who would ever imagine the FBI Director in this country leaking documents to the press to bring down a duly elected President who did nothing wrong?

In 2019 we listed the known leaks that Comey made to the press.  His current attorney was involved in criminal leaks which Comey has yet to be charged for.

In Comey’s current case where he is charged with two crimes he filed with the court a document identifying his attorney as Patrick Fitzgerald.

FBI Brass Fires More Than 15 Agents Photographed Kneeling During George Floyd Protests and Riots in DC

The FBI raided the home of the former President of the United States over made-up offenses.  This is the same President whom the FBI attempted to prevent from winning the 2016 Election and then attempted to remove from office with the Russiagate scam during his first term.

FBI leaders from the corrupt Obama/Biden Administration hired a Russian and others and used their made-up information to attempt to remove President Trump from office during his first term.

At least 14 FBI whistleblowers in 2022 approached Rep. Jim Jordan with allegations of misconduct and abuse within the bureau under Christopher Wray’s leadership.

Rep. Jordan received information at that time about retaliation against at least one whistleblower and a ‘purge’ of conservative employees.

Jim Jordan said security clearances of conservative employees were being revoked as punishment.

In September 2022, insiders at the FBI told The Washington Times that the agency is becoming more political by putting liberal agents in charge through promotions and punishing or firing agents who support conservative causes.

Beware How The Climate Crusade ‘Partners’ With The Media And ‘Educates’ The Courts

Do you ever wonder why mainstream news stories seem so one-sided in their “climate change” coverage, promoting the most radical theories while ridiculing so-called “climate deniers?” Similarly, have you ever pondered how judges who are not scientists or climate experts render opinions favorable to the climate cult while citing scientific “facts” and “evidence” to bolster their verdicts?

For decades, CBS News – the storied broadcast home of icons like Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite – was long regarded as the gold standard for television journalism. The “Tiffany Network’s” reporting might sometimes be controversial, but it was always considered deeply researched and proudly independent. CBS News prided itself on its unassailable integrity – “And that’s the way it is,” Cronkite assured us every evening when he signed off.

When it comes to reporting on climate news, those days are gone. For some climate-related stories, CBS News has of late been partnering with Climate Central, a nonprofit that bills itself as “policy-neutral” and “independent,” but acknowledges on its on website that it “uses science, big data, and technology to generate thousands of local storylines and compelling visuals that make climate change personal and show what can be done about it. We address climate science, sea level rise, extreme weather, energy, and related topics.”

In early September Fox News reported, “Last month, CBS News published a story about melting glaciers that also aired on ‘Sunday Morning.’ Ben Tracy was the correspondent on the segment, with his byline at the top of the article. A disclaimer at the bottom read, ‘Story produced by Chris Spinder, in partnership with Climate Central. Editor: Chris Jolly.’” Fox News noted that another CBS News article in July, “also tied to an on-air segment with Tracy, included the disclaimer that the story was ‘produced in partnership with Climate Central.’”

In fact, Tracy and Spinder “work for Climate Central. Only Jolly is a current CBS News staffer, according to his LinkedIn page.” So much for fair, balanced and independent journalism.

On its website, Climate Central boasts of its influence on news organizations, noting that through its “Partnership Journalism” program, it “contributes data, science and data reporting, editing and guidance to joint features coverage informed by new climate data.” The site provides links to page after page of “news” stories on which it has “partnered,” ranging from alternative energy outlets to traditional news agencies.

Prince Andrew Mentioned in More Epstein Documents, Flying in the ‘Lolita Express’ and Getting ‘Massages’

Disgraced ‘Randy Andy’ is in a tight spot – again.

Another week, another Jeffrey Epstein-related scandal involving the Duke of York, Prince Andrew.

After days filled with scandals involving his live-in ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, that led her to lose patronage in 7 charities, now Andrew is back to the spotlight.

Documents released by the US House Oversight Committee show that he has enjoyed luxury travel on Epstein’s private jet, the ‘Lolita Express’, and documents reveal he had ‘massages’ paid for.

Andrew as a listed passenger on a flight from Teterboro, New Jersey, to Palm Beach in Florida, along with Ghislaine Maxwell and two redacted names – presumably victims.

Daily Mail reported:

“The flight is documented to have taken place on May 12, 2000 and the name Andrew appears again in the flight logs on May 16, 2002.

He was also documented to have enjoyed a $200 massage, including exercise and yoga. The massage sessions Epstein frequently partook in at his Palm Beach home became notoriously used to abuse minors and young girls, forcing them into sex acts.

Several of his victims have testified that they were paid around $200 per massage session.”

Rep. Mikie Sherrill, NJ Gubernatorial Candidate, Excluded from Her Naval Academy Graduation Due to Past Cheating Incident

A new report reveals that far-left New Jersey gubernatorial candidate Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) was blocked from walking with her graduating class at the US Naval Academy (USNA) after being caught up in a cheating scandal.

According to records obtained by The New Jersey Globe, Sherrill’s name “was not included on the commencement program during the May 25, 1994, ceremony.

Despite the USNA’s honor code, the congresswoman said she was barred because she would not “rat out” classmates involved in the scandal.

Per The New Jersey Globe:

“I didn’t turn in some of my classmates, so I didn’t walk, but graduated and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy, serving for nearly ten years with the highest level of distinction and honor,” Sherrill said.

And, despite Sherrill making both her military service and her attendance at the Academy a cornerstone of her campaign, she has declined to allow the public to inspect any disciplinary records.

However, the Sherrill campaign rejected a request that she permit public inspection of any disciplinary records from her time at the academy.  Only Sherrill could authorize the release of those sealed records.

The report comes as the gubernatorial race tightens against her opponent, Republican Jack Ciattarelli.

REPORT: Disgraced Former FBI Director James Comey Expected to SURRENDER Today, Friday Morning

On Thursday evening, the Department of Justice finally dropped the hammer on one of the most crooked swamp creatures in American history.

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey was indicted on two felony charges: making false statements and obstruction of justice.

A grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia returned two counts against Comey, just days after President Trump demanded that his DOJ act “now” to hold Comey and other corrupt operatives accountable.

James Comey built his career on dishonesty and abuse of power. He repeatedly lied to Congress and the FISA court to secure illegal warrants against President Trump and his allies during the hoax “Russiagate” witch hunt.

Comey knew as early as 2016 that the Steele Dossier was fabricated opposition research, yet he used it anyway to weaponize the FBI against a sitting President.

For years, he operated as a partisan hitman inside the Bureau, greenlighting lawless spying operations and leaking strategically to the press to damage Trump.

Lisa Cook Tells Supreme Court There Will Be Market “Chaos And Disruption” If She Is Fired

What do you do when you are highly underqualified for your job, which you plagiarized to get in the first place, and on top of it all you broke the law and now your current boss doesn’t want you any more? Well, you sue of course… and if that doesn’t work, you claim that the world will end if you are let go. 

Yes, that’s the traditional flowchart for government DEI hires, it’s also what Fed governor Lisa Cook is doing as she fights tooth and nail to say on at the Fed.

Fed Governor Lisa Cook’s attorneys urged the US Supreme Court to let her stay on the job while she fights President Donald Trump’s attempt to fire her, warning that even her temporary removal risks “chaos and disruption” in financial markets.

Granting the Justice Department’s request to allow Trump to immediately oust her “would sound the death knell for the central-bank independence that has helped make the United States’ economy the strongest in the world,” her lawyers wrote in a brief filed Thursday.

Or maybe just keep your client from breaking the law? Of course, since that’s impossible, you go straight to the apocalypse that will follow should Trump get to say his favorite phrase.

In her brief, Cook’s lawyers claim that Trump should have no authority to fire her, and that as of 2023, “only 12 nations with central banks allow the removal of central-bank board members at the executive’s discretion for policy reasons or for no reason at all.” Those 12 nations are Bangladesh, Chile, China, Comoros, Iran, Kazakhstan, Laos, Morocco, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkmenistan, and Vietnam.

Well, the US will make it 13. 

The DOJ has asked the Supreme Court to let Trump remove Cook, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, who has continued serving in her post since late August when Trump announced he would remove her due to mortgage fraud allegations that she’s denied.

The Supreme Court set a fast schedule for written briefs in the case but hasn’t signaled precisely when it intends to rule.

HYPOCRITE ALERT: Sen. Blumenthal Defends James Comey After Trump DOJ Finally Indicts the Corrupt Ex-FBI Boss — Admits Democrats Are Now Writing Legislation to Block Prosecutions of Their Allies

Democrat Senator Richard Blumenthal, who infamously lied about serving in Vietnam, is going all-in as a radical activist on behalf of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey, who was just indicted by President Trump’s Department of Justice.

The very same Blumenthal who gleefully celebrated when Joe Biden’s weaponized DOJ tried to throw President Trump behind bars for the rest of his natural life is suddenly clutching his pearls over “malicious prosecution.”

During his CNN appearance with Erin Burnett, Blumenthal openly bragged about his plans to interfere with the DOJ’s case against Comey.

Blumenthal admitted that Senate Democrats are drafting legislation to give “remedies and rights” to political operatives like Comey who face prosecution, claiming America is on the “way to tyranny” because Trump’s DOJ dared to indict a Democrat’s ally.

Erin Burnett:
I want to ask you, in this context, what can you do right now as a Democratic senator about this?

Blumenthal:
“I can ask questions of the Department of Justice, which we will do. We can support colleagues and others on the Republican side who may be inclined—I hope they will be—to draw a line here and protest. Obviously, I have no role in court. I was a prosecutor for four and a half years as U.S. attorney in Connecticut. I also was attorney general for 20 years.

The most consequential decisions I made were whether to charge someone, because nobody ever fully recovers from those charges. A lot of people believe that an acquittal just means there was some technical issue.

I think it’s important to encourage the private bar to step up. Donald Trump made deals with a number of the major law firms in the country. They’ve got to rip them apart and say, enough is enough.

I would encourage attorneys in the Department of Justice to stand up for their conviction and conscience, as Eric Siebert did. He’s the U.S. attorney who resigned rather than bring those charges.

As a member of the United States Senate, I’m going to go to the floor of the Senate, I’m going to go to committee meetings, I’m going to speak privately, I’m going to protest, and I am going to seek legislation—we’re formulating it right now—that may well prevent some of this perversion of justice.

We are writing legislation that will give remedies and rights to people who are victims of malicious prosecution. We have to provide safeguards, because we’ve clearly seen how the ordinary norms are defined by this autocratic president. We’re on the way to tyranny if we’re permitted to go forward.”
