James Comey keeps Tweeting like a man with an immunity deal.
Or he could be channeling his inner WWE villain.
All should appreciate the FBI speaking up. I wish more of our leaders would. But take heart: American history shows that, in the long run, weasels and liars never hold the field, so long as good people stand up. Not a lot of schools or streets named for Joe McCarthy.

Whatever the genesis, he’s getting his tall ass kicked all over Twitter with his poor man’s Norman Rockwell literary shtick.
We haven’t seen this type of vicious public reviews for the FBI since the late Joan Rivers panned J. Edgar Hoover’s dress collection on E! TV’s Fashion Police.
Looking forward to the FBI speaking up during their sentencing hearings. https://t.co/jDZ79Qpufy

The place where you worked for a decade, and where all FBI agents in Washington work now, is named after J. Edgar Hoover, and a sign honoring him sits in front of that building https://t.co/6lrpAlZcCS https://t.co/n7PPea581z

IIRC, Joe McCarthy spun fevered conspiracy theories about Russians controlling the government. https://t.co/3AXDdOtm6V

It’s cool how James Comey just gets to pretend he’s a great guy now. https://t.co/2WMxrBTKXc

There won’t be a single street, school, or thruway named for you either. The #Comey name might only be a prosecutorial file with things like #perjury #FBICorruption #ObstructionOfJustice Just think you could share a cell with so may of your friends

No, Mr. Comey. America needs its top law enforcement agency and the Department of Justice to cease being tools for political parties to use in the middle of key elections. It needs the FBI to go after people, no matter what their last name is, when they CLEARLY break the law.

Why the F is James Comey tweeting about how Sen Joe McCarthy is not at all respected after Comey & his FBI took McCarthyism & used it as an excuse to stage a coup? Did you forget who you are Jim?

I wonder if @Comey is trolling or he is diabolical: McCarthy could have only dreamt of have had in his disposal the tools @Comey deployed in his RUSSIA scare. I mean, how does exposing a McCarthy/worse than Nixon type Russia vendetta/political spying amount to being McCarthy? pic.twitter.com/uJc43V3lmt
