    US judge has dismissed criminal charges against former FBI Director
    James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, ruling that the prosecutor who brought the charges was unlawfully appointed.

    Judge Cameron Currie said that Lindsey Halligan, who was handpicked by
    Trump to bring the charges against two of his political adversaries, was
    never eligible to assume the post.

    Both Comey and James have maintained their innocence and described the prosecutions as political in nature.

    In response to the ruling, the White House told the BBC: "The facts of
    the indictments against Comey and James have not changed and this will
    not be the final word on this matter."

    The Justice Department plans to appeal the dismissal of the cases.

    Not to mention this person has no business being a US attorney.
    Trump put up a totally incompetent person again! The case is
    wild, Halligan screwed the case during the grand jury and then
    lied about it multiple times to the judge.
