Tim Kaine

attorney.

An article in the National Review, hardly a liberal publication earlier this week, said you can't put a new interim in to do your bidding once the 120-day period has passed.

So I think the Comey attorneys have an awful lot of grounds to get this thing thrown out.

Look, I've had major differences in the past with Jim Comey that I don't want to really get into.

But the guy's entitled to the rule of law.

He's entitled to fairness.

He's entitled not to be victimized by a clearly trumped up political persecution.

And so I'm going to do everything I can as the senator for this state to make sure that Donald Trump doesn't pervert our two U.S.

attorney's offices publicly.

who have had a high standard for integrity for many, many decades, that he doesn't pervert them and turn them into engines of political persecution.

Well, I will tell you, I think Pam Bondi did a very important psychological reveal in the statement that she put out tonight.

If she felt that there was rock solid evidence to indict Jim Comey, she wouldn't have finished her official statement with the line, we will follow the facts in this case.

You know, that's what you do if you're like an investigating officer, right?

or even a prosecutor to decide whether to indict somebody.

You don't indict somebody and then say, well, now we got to figure out what the facts tell us.

She has shown her whole card and kind of revealed that she has deep ambivalence about what Trump is ordering her to do.

She's genuflecting to the boss rather than showing the independence that Americans have come to expect from an attorney general.

That was no indication of your guilty conscience.

I'm deeply worried about it, Jen.

I have worked with this office.
