Concerns are rising within the Justice Department regarding the potential indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, possibly as early as Thursday. Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly has reservations, despite pressure from President Trump who demands prosecution of political opponents. A memo from attorneys in the Eastern District of Virginia outlines their concerns about the case, which centers on alleged false statements Comey made during congressional testimony. While Trump urges swift action, some view the pursuit of charges against Comey as politically motivated, mirroring the prosecutions Trump himself faced.
