JUDGE DISMISSES Comey & Letitia James Cases: HUGE Blow to Trump's Political Prosecution - FIVE MINUTE NEWS
The federal judiciary delivered a stunning rebuke to the executive branch on Monday. A federal judge DISMISSED all criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, definitively siding with their claims of political motivation.
The Impact: This ruling is seen as a powerful illustration of the judicial branch challenging the executive branch’s use of prosecutorial power, heavily supporting the defendants' claims that the actions were politically motivated. It's a major check on the power of the Presidency. - 11/25/2025.
