The Department of Justice has indicted James Comey for a second time, according to multiple reports on Tuesday, reopening a legal fight that appeared dead just months ago.
The new charges were not immediately disclosed, and officials have yet to confirm where the grand jury convened. The development was first reported by CNN, with additional confirmation from sources familiar with the matter.
Representatives for the Department of Justice declined to comment, leaving key questions unanswered about the scope and substance of the case. One of Comey’s defense attorneys from his earlier legal battle also declined to weigh in.

MUCH deserved
This clown was dogwhistling for one of his deranged followers to take out President Trump.
