ABC News: James Comey and Letitia James Prosecutor Alleged to Be Unfit to Be an Attorney

Now that New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI Director James Comey have been indicted, it's time for the Left to find some way to shield them. ABC News got an email from a "watchdog group" that claims the Justice Department prosecutor picked to lead those criminal cases is unfit to be an attorney.

James and Comey are unfit to be walking free. Let's see what bait ABC News fell for:

The progressive watchdog group Campaign for Accountability filed a complaint against Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan on Tuesday and requested that the state bars in Florida and Virginia initiate investigations into her conduct. 

The complaint alleges that Halligan repeatedly violated the professional and ethical rules that govern the legal profession, including by making false statements and by bringing cases that are unsupported by probable cause. 

"Weaponizing the DOJ to prosecute the president's enemies could destroy the democratic principles at the foundation of our Constitution," the complaint said. "Ms. Halligan's active participation in this course of action is an abuse of her governmental authority and is prejudicial to the administration of justice, adversely reflecting on her fitness as a lawyer."

Why didn't we hear from this Campaign for Accountability when the Justice Department was weaponized against Donald Trump?

Some editor saw the press release sent out by the Campaign for Accountability and said, "Yes, let's reprint this."

Why, when you can sit at your desk and cut and paste a press release from a progressive "watchdog group"?
