Video Description

A federal grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia has indicted former FBI Director James Comey on charges of making a false statement to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding. It’s the latest act of President Trump’s political retribution against a prominent critic. In this live conversation, Preet and Joyce Vance, former U.S. Attorney and co-host of the Insider podcast, share their reactions to the Comey indictment and the danger of politicizing law enforcement, describing it as a moment that has “crossed the Rubicon.” They break down the lead up to the charges, merits of the case and the strength of the evidence, the reactions from Comey (“Let’s have a trial”) and from Trump’s supporters, and how the case is likely to unfold.
