DOJ Fires James Comey’s Daughter Who Worked on Epstein Case

Comey was on the team that brought sex trafficking charges against Epstein, and he later killed himself in jail while awaiting trial.

Comey has also handled other high-profile cases, including the prosecution of Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Comey’s firing comes after several recent dismissals of other career Justice Department officials.

In dismissal letters, Bondi has routinely cited the second article of the Constitution, which establishes the presidency, as the authority for the removal.

Comey’s father has also had run-ins with the Trump administration.

James Comey was fired as FBI director under the first Trump administration and has since been a vocal critic of the president.

He recently came under scrutiny after sharing a photo of seashells arranged to read 86-47. While the White House claimed the message could be viewed as a threat on Trump’s life, others noted the term originated in the hospitality industry, where it can refer to booting a customer or running out of a particular item.

The New York Times reported that the Secret Service followed the former FBI director and tracked the location of his cellphone in the days after his post.
