Ted Slone @tedslone.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Mixed feelings about the Comey indictment. On one hand, he is more responsible than anyone aside from maybe Putin for Trump's election in 2016, and I will never forgive him for that. On the other hand, this is obviously politically motivated prosecution and is the shit that happens in dictatorships. 030
