The trial for ex FBI Director and beach seashell formation enthusiast James Comey isn’t scheduled to take place until early January, but events are unfolding behind the scenes that could force changes to the defense team.

Here’s the full post from Herridge:
New Move By Federal Prosecutors Against Comey Legal Team
Lead Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald May Have Conflict That Disqualifies Him
Federal Prosecutors Cite 2019 DOJ Watchdog Report That Found Comey Leaked to Fitzgerald
The Inspector General concluded Fitzgerald received multiple Comey memos about his meetings with President Trump, including at least one memo containing classified information.
“This fact raises a question of conflict and disqualification for current lead defense counsel.
Some of the communications in the potentially protected material (evidence Comey Indictment) are from the same time as the focus of the DOJ OIG report.”
This whole thing reeks to high heaven.
Well Well Well. The Plot Thickens. In these Documents it proves that Comeys Lead Council was in fact a perpetrator in the Crimes Committed by Comey & Others. Which Could & Should Lead to his Disqualification in this Case https://t.co/rkn86if6yh

Comey leaked to one of his lead attorneys which should disqualify that attorney from representing him. https://t.co/Pt5tkTZJVq

The Federalist’s Sean Davis explained the game Comey likes to play:
Comey, who is under federal indictment for criminal leaking, leaked classified memos to Fitzgerald in 2017. Fitzgerald is a fact witness in this trial, as are a number of other Comey attorneys.

“This is a long-time tactic of Comey’s: he hires attorneys he leaks to, then pretends they can’t be questioned because of attorney-client privilege. He did the same illegal arrangement with Daniel Richman.”
But we’re supposed to believe these same people are just beacons of integrity and the real problem is Trump.
I thought attorney-client privilege stopped being a thing when they went after Trumps lawyers?

Maybe Comey’s hoping the “rules” are different this time around. He might be surprised.
