About this episode
A federal grand jury has indicted former FBI Director James Comey on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice, a move sought by Trump's newly appointed prosecutor. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Comey repeatedly lied to Congress about leaks and surveillance of Trump's campaign, citing FISA abuses, the Russia probe, and the targeting of Michael Flynn through an illegal wiretap. Critics including Lindsey Graham contend Comey withheld exculpatory evidence about the Clinton campaign's role in fabricating Russiagate, undermining the rule of law. Jimmy frames the indictment as overdue accountability for Comey, while also warning that political prosecutions reflect deeper corruption in the U.S. justice system. Plus segments on Google's recent admission that the company caved to Biden administration demands to censor COVID related content and the recent embrace by U.S. government figures of former Al Qaeda leader and current Syria president Ahmed al-Sharaa. Also featuring Mike MacRae, John Kiriakou & Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Kamala Supporter!
