How was this man the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation? That’s the only question that one should ask after watching this truly bizarre video on Substack, where he laments that President Trump met with Vladimir Putin last Friday, and that Mr. Trump is still president. That’s a very poor choice of words, given that this man shared a pro-assassination post on his Instagram account.

The video was about how Swift inspires Comey to deal with living in Trump’s America or something. Senior Trump officials also responded and rightly mocked the video.
I will repeat what I have said many times: there is something fundamentally off about Comey.pic.twitter.com/ax9ZRKkw8b

I mean, what fresh hell is this? Trump has truly broken the minds of a lot of people, but it’s all the right people. Maybe he's having some fun since indictments over Russiagate seem likely.
