    GOP Senator Slams Trump Admin’s ‘Vindictive Prosecution’ of James Comey

    A senior Republican senator has sharply criticized the Justice Department’s prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey, breaking with the Trump administration and raising fresh questions about whether the case amounts to political retaliation.Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina said Sunday that he does not support what he called a “vindictive prosecution” of Comey, even as he reiterated harsh criticism of the former FBI chief. Tillis made the remarks during an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, pushing back against the administration’s handling of the case.Newsweek reached out to the White House on Sunday.Why It MattersTillis’ comments mark one of the most prominent instances of a Republican lawmaker publicly distancing himself from the Trump administration’s legal strategy against one of the president’s longtime adversaries. As a senior GOP senator, Tillis’ intervention underscores unease within parts of the president’s own party about the appearance of politicized prosecutions.The case against Comey has become a flashpoint in a broader debate over whether the Justice Department is being used to target Trump’s critics. President Donald Trump has repeatedly argued that his opponents have weaponized the legal system against him, while critics say the administration is now doing the same in return.What to KnowComey
