Really sounded like he had his choice of reasons for dismissal here. Pick a number any number.

Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Lol I'm shocked these clowns could pass the bar.
Reminder that fascists don't usually bother adhering to the rule of law.
In this case, they tried to weaponize the law against an enemy and it didn’t work.
Let’s see what they do next. Do they drop it? Does he suddenly fall down some stairs or shoot himself in the back of the head three times? Basically, are they wannabe fascists or the real thing?
I think Comey is basically free and clear after this, as his charges were close to the statute of limitations upon filing iirc, for Letitia James' charges I'm not sure on the details.
Nobody is ever safe under fascism.
From what I heard there were a lot more problems with the indictment than the illegal appointment. Just for starters, the indictment signed by the jury foreperson was never actually shown to the grand jury or voted on in the form it was signed. Which would mean the indictment was never actually valid. Also, there's strong evidence that they illegally used privileged information in the grand jury hearing.
This is what you get when you appoint someone who is not qualified for the job.
This indictment was insane. It had multiple problems that made it illegal. It was never actually passed by a grand jury, it was never presented in its final form to a grand jury and it was sought by someone without the legal authority to call a grand jury for an indictment.
