It’s shaping up as a fight between what now is known to have been the weaponization of the federal government against Donald Trump by Democrats, and claims that Trump now is weaponizing the government against those who participated in the now-debunked “Russiagate” conspiracy theory Democrats launched against him during his first campaign.

The trigger is a federal indictment of ex-FBI chief James Comey for obstruction and lying.

He was, of course, a key player in the Russiagate lies, having had his FBI launch an investigation of Trump and his campaign during 2016 based on the wild claims that he was conspiring with Russia, a fabrication that Barack Obama had been told was being assembled by failed Democrat presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton.

Comey posted on social media his claim to innocence which focused more on blaming Trump, and boasting about how he and his family were “standing up to Donald Trump.”

But social media pointed out how even going to social media to make statements was banned for Donald Trump when the Democrat weaponization was at its most aggressive.

And social media pointed out the multiple lawfare cases against Trump and dozens of others, assembled by the Democrat power structure at the time.

Kash Patel, the current FBI chief, said the bureau under his management is just calling “the balls and strikes.”

He said claims of politicization – now – are “wildly false” and come “from the same bankrupt media…”

Some of the evidence in the case already is in the public record, including on video:

GOP members of Congress suggested it was about time.

President Trump, who long has been calling for prosecutions over the Russiagate conspiracy theory and the lies it involved, was blunt, “Whether you Corrupt James Comey or not, and I can’t imagine too many peple liking him, HE LIED! It is not a complex lie, it’s very simple, but IMPORTANT one. There is no way he can explain his way out of it. He is a Dirty Cop, and always has beren, but he was just assigned a Crooked Joe Biden appointed Judge, so he’s off to a very good start. Nevertheless, words are words, and he wasn’t hedging or in dispute. He was very positive, there was no dbout in his mind about what he said, or meant by saying it. He left himself ZERO margin of error on a big and important answer to a question. He just got unexpectedly caught. …”

Democrats lined up with the claims that it is a “malicious prosecution.”

Democrat Sen. Mark Warner said, “This kind of interference is a dangerous abuse of power. By ousting a respected, independent prosecutor and replacing him with a partisan loyalist, Trump is undermining one of the most important U.S. Attorney’s offices in the country and eroding the rule of law itself.”
