Former White House Special Counsel Ty Cobb expressed skepticism about the legal merits of the case against James Comey, citing a narrow grand jury vote and the high bar for conviction. Cobb, speaking on "Face the Nation," described actions against individuals like Comey and targets of investigations as "wholly unconstitutional and authoritarian." He believes former President Trump is attempting to "rewrite history" and use the Justice Department to prosecute perceived enemies, warning that those targeted are in "real danger." Cobb also criticized Republican lawmakers for their perceived inaction and cowardice in checking presidential power.
