Comey Indictment Sparks Split, Homan Allegations

Former Trump confidant Michael Cohen told MSNBC he believes ex‑FBI Director James Comey is likely to be found guilty and claimed the DOJ possesses all of Comey’s communications, though Cohen is not considered a reliably credible source. Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb told CBS’ Face the Nation the indictment is “wholly unconstitutional,” saying he sees “no way in the world” Comey will be convicted and predicting the case could be dismissed before trial. Media coverage has amplified the split between pro‑ and anti‑Comey narratives, with pundits and former officials debating the legal sufficiency and political motives behind the charges. Separately, reporting alleges Trump’s border czar nominee Tom Homan accepted $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents in September 2024 in a recorded exchange, and that the investigation stalled and was closed after Trump appointees took over the Justice Department. Those allegations have prompted calls to reopen the probe and for Trump to release Epstein‑related files amid renewed accusations of partisan weaponization and cover‑ups tied to the Trump administration.
