President Trump told reporters Friday that “I think there will be others” after former FBI Director James Comey was indicted a day earlier on charges of lying to Congress and obstruction of justice.
“It’s not a list, but I think there’ll be others. I mean, they’re corrupt,” Trump said as he headed to the Ryder Cup golf tournament on Long Island.
AP“These were corrupt radical left Democrats, because Comey, essentially, was a Dem — he’s worse than a Democrat. I would say the Democrats are better than Comey.
“But no, there will be others. Look, that’s my opinion. They weaponized the Justice Department like nobody in history. What they’ve done is terrible … frankly, I hope there are others.”
Last weekend, the president publicly urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute the ex-FBI boss, along with Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte referred Schiff and James to the Department of Justice over allegations of mortgage fraud earlier this year.
Both listed multiple properties as their primary residences on loan documents, which could have given them more favorable mortgage rates.

Grand juries have been convened in both the James and Schiff cases, but the panels have declined to indict either official.

A source familiar with the deliberations over the two cases noted that the probe of the California senator’s residence in Maryland resulted in a recommendation against prosecution.
It’s unclear whether such a memo was authored for the James case before Eastern District of Virginia US Attorney Erik Siebert resigned last week, purportedly under pressure from the Trump administration to bring charges against the Empire State AG.

That probe, codenamed Arctic Haze, unearthed further information about classified disclosures possibly involving ex-FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe, ex-FBI chief of staff James Rybicki and ex-FBI general counsel James Baker.
The leaks appeared in several news stories in 2017 and disclosed classified information — some of which was relayed to a New York Times reporter by Columbia Law School professor Daniel Richman, a longtime Comey friend.
Comey testified in June 2017, one month after Trump fired him, that he had leaked memos to Richman about his interactions with the 45th president.
Other leaked files detailed the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server to send and receive classified information while secretary of state.
Documents on Arctic Haze were recently declassified by FBI Director Kash Patel, who also recovered other damning records related to Russigate in “burn bags” at the FBI’s Washington Field Office shortly after starting on the job.
Mike Davis, a lawyer and close Trump ally, told The Post Friday that he expects a superseding indictment in the Eastern District of Virginia that may target others involved in the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign.
