Federal prosecutors have dropped a stunning rebuttal to James Comey’s motion to dismiss that includes a stack of internal documents and emails conservatives have long hoped would surface. The filing alleges personal messages and notes that, if what the government says is true, show the former FBI director not only aware of but engaged in directing off-the-books media contacts during the 2016 Clinton matter. For patriotic Americans tired of two-tier justice, seeing these records publicly filed is the kind of transparency our country desperately needs.
Among the most explosive items prosecutors cite are emails from 2016 exchanged with Daniel Richman and others that reference media outreach and an expectation that a Clinton victory would vindicate certain decisions. The documents reportedly include Comey using a burner account and writing that “some day they will figure it out” and musing about a “president-elect Clinton,” language that undercuts the image he cultivated on Capitol Hill. If an FBI director was quietly coordinating narratives through third parties, that isn’t mere bureaucratic misstep — it’s a betrayal of trust and the deliberate politicization of the nation’s top law enforcement agency.
The filing also points to what prosecutors call Exhibit 13, a handwritten page on FBI letterhead that allegedly reads like a dry run of the Russia-collusion storyline long pushed by friendly media. For years conservatives warned the Russia narrative was crafted and amplified, not organically uncovered, and this document — if authenticated — would confirm those warnings in black and white. This is the kind of documentary evidence that turns abstract suspicions into prosecutable facts, and it is precisely why men and women in public life must answer for their actions.
Make no mistake: Comey was already indicted on counts of making false statements and obstruction of a congressional proceeding, so we’re not watching theatrics; we’re watching the evidentiary backbone of a real criminal case take shape. The defense will predictably cry context and nuance, and liberal pundits will scream political revenge, but facts on paper are harder to spin than opinions on cable. The conservative plea is simple — don’t let Washington’s protective priesthood sweep this under the rug the way too many scandals were buried before.
Mainstream outlets that once lauded Comey are now squirming, and that’s no accident — the document trail hits the very institutions that paraded the Russia fairy tale to delegitimize a presidency. It’s time to stop treating intelligence agencies and national security institutions as untouchable arbiters of political truth. The American people deserve an FBI that serves the Constitution, not a factional apparatus that manufactures narratives to sway elections and careers.
We must also be honest about the politics here: the Department of Justice has been corrupted by partisan instincts for too long on both sides, and any prosecution must be handled with ironclad fairness. Conservatives who demand accountability for Comey should also insist on due process and refuse to descend into the same lawfare tactics we condemn when wielded by our opponents. If the evidence proves what prosecutors say, then hold him accountable; if it does not, admit the mistake and move on.
This moment is a test of whether America still means equal justice under law or whether the Deep State remains above accountability. Patriots should watch the Alexandria courthouse closely, demand transparency from the process, and hope a Northern Virginia jury finally forces the truth into daylight. If the documents prosecutors have presented are genuine, James Comey should face the consequences like any public servant who abused power — and the country will be stronger for it.
