Federal courts all over the country are recognizing that Trumps DOJ is not deserving of the presumption of regularity typically given to the government. They see that they are lying, liars that lie a lot.
Comey motion for grand jury material ruling:
VIII. Conclusion
The Court recognizes that the relief sought by the defense is rarely granted. However, the record points to a disturbing pattern of profound investigative missteps, missteps that led an FBI agent and a prosecutor to potentially undermine the integrity of the grand jury proceeding. Therefore, in this case, "the Court has before it a rare example of a criminal defendant who can actually make a 'particularized and factually based' showing that grounds exist to support the proposition that irregularities may have occurred in the grand jury proceedings and may justify the dismissal of one or more counts of the indictment." See Naegele, 474 F. Supp. 2d at 10 (citations omitted).
Accordingly, the defense request for all grand jury materials is granted.
ENTERED this 17th day of November 2025.
