FOX News legal expert Gregg Jarrett tore into controversial fired FBI Director James Comey on Sunday.
Gregg Jarrett tore into Comey and his lawyer for their flimsy threats.
Jarrett first went after crooked Andrew McCabe.
If it is true that McCabe gave false and misleading statements to the IG, he should be charged criminally under 18 USC 1001. If he was under oath, as the AG statement alleges, he should be charged with perjury under 18 USC 1621. Losing his job is the least of McCabe’s concerns.

Then Gregg Jarrett turned his attention to fired FBI Director James Comey.
As for Comey, he appears to have stolen government documents, a crime under 18 USC 641. If any were classified (as Grassley seems to believe), it’s a crime under 18 USC 1924 (and probably 793). Deceiving the FISA court and concealing evidence? That’s 6 different felonies.

Gregg Jarrett once again pointed out that Comey could be charged with six crimes.
If Comey cleared Cinton for political reasons (as evidence suggests) that’s obstruction of justice. If he gave false testimony to Congress, well…you know. I could go all day long on Comey. Looking forward to his work of fiction with the pretentious, self-righteous title.

Finally, Gregg Jarrett points out that Comey and his lawyer know he broke the law or they would have filed a lawsuit by now.
Comey’s lawyer said his client has been defamed by Trump. So why hasn’t he sued? The reason is obvious. Truth is a defense to defamation. If Comey didn’t commit crimes and lie then he would file a lawsuit. His failure to do so indicates he knows what he did broke several laws.
