The FBI is considering carrying out a “showy” arrest and perp walk of the agency’s now-indicted ex-Director James Comey, and has suspended an agent who refused to participate in the plan, three sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.
Ray refused to participate in this plan, believing it would be inappropriate and highly unusual for a white-collar defendant like Comey, according to the source. He was then suspended for insubordination.
The FBI is now actively working to put together a team to arrest Comey between now and his court appearance on Thursday, but other FBI supervisors have also refused to cooperate, said a source knowledgeable about the conversions and a law enforcement source familiar with the situation. The expectation is that the FBI will eventually find somebody.
Let it happen, it will backfire mightily.
Remember Luigi’s peep walk, with all the cops, and Adams, and that Sociopathic Oligarch Nepo-Baby Police Commissioner? They thought that it would make them look powerful, and instead, it made them look scared and cowardly, while he looked perfectly unperturbed. One caption I saw said: “Christ led to his crucifixion by Roman Centurions.” Not exactly the message they thought they were sending.
So let them try, they’ll just fuck it up, and look incompetent, as usual.
It’s not the same thing. Most people love Luigi so the perp walk did nothing except show how shitty cops are.
No-one gives a shit about Comey. Democrats hate him because he undermined Hillary and basically lead to Trump part one.
Republicans hate him because he didn’t gargle Trumps nuts with enthusiasm.
It’s the same shit as Bolton. What Trump is doing is wrong and despicable. At the same time Bolton and Comey are pieces of shit…
They’ll still fuck it up. I wouldn’t be surprised if the judge dismissed it at the first appearance.
I love that people are pushing back, all over the government. The DoJ, who usually gets grand jury indictments 98% of the time, can’t indict their ham sandwiches.
These scumbags are jackals, and the more they try to overstep their bounds, and fail, the more the citizens see them for the weak dummies that they really are.
Eventually we’ll have enough, and we’ll force them to stop. And they will stop, because at their core, they are extreme cowards, trying to cover it with bluster. Once they see that we’re all onto them, and we’re now angry enough to crush them ruthlessly, then they’ll surrender, and start begging for mercy, which they will never receive.
The next chance we get, we won’t make the mistake of expecting them to acting in good faith. We will just start prosecuting and imprisoning anyone who is a national security threat.
Save the perp walk for the one who needs it.
And this fixes the economy how? And this helps lower the price of gas, groceries, and housing how? And this stops the war in Ukraine how? And this stops the genocide in Gaza how? And this gets the Epstein files released how?
This is how Trumpy pwoves how stwong he is.
More red meat for the clown show. Trump’s handlers are stirring the pot so hard they might make a water spout.
Ray refused to participate in this plan, believing it would be inappropriate and highly unusual for a white-collar defendant like Comey, according to the source. He was then suspended for insubordination.
So it’s fine to parade a person around after an arrest for political reasons so long as they’re a lower-class peasant.
Even when the FBI does the right thing they do it for the wrong reasons.
Of everyone this administration is victimizing, this is one man I do not care about.
If he was the only person they were persecuting, I would probably feel a lot differently.
So while I’m very sad for what this means for our country, I do find a little pleasure in watching an unjust persecution of someone who at least deserves bad things happening to them, because he is in large part to blame for this.
Truly a bittersweet taste of irony.
Perp walks shouldn’t be a thing in the first place. At it’s best it’s bullshit theater to drum up sentiment that someone is guilty pretrial
They’re dealing with this with Luigi right now between the perp walks and politics involved there’s a non zero chance they get at least a mistrial.
I just don’t understand Comey’s inexplicable resistance to imperial norms…
These people are all fucking LARPers that have no clue what their agencies are supposed to actually do. It’s fucking embarrassing.
Embarrassing, dangerous, destructive, expensive, and shameful.
Leadership at all alphabet agencies have been compromised.

Buddy,
“oh look how tough we are, we’re attacking our former allies, this is the left actually”
The FBI has always been the Secret Police. Their just upset that their regularly scheduled program is being run against one of their own. Damage to FBI morale, leadership, and ability are good actually. Do the CIA next.
@MicroWave This overreach is likely to backfire
