Former FBI Director James Comey will appear for his arraignment in federal court on Thursday, October 9. Comey was charged with one count of making false statements and one count of obstruction of justice, related to Senate testimony he gave almost five years ago. The charges came just days after the president tapped his former defense lawyer and White House aide, Lindsey Halligan, to temporarily lead the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee allege Trump ousted the former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia because he would not charge Trump adversaries, like Comey. #comey #trump #virginia
