Man, first the pinkos at Cato produce a chart showing right-wing violence is much more prevalent than left-wing, and now the woke antifa National Review is claiming the Comey Indictment is invalid!
National Review — Was Lindsey Halligan Validly Appointed as United States Attorney?
That doesn’t mean that the president can’t temporarily fill the office with a pick of his own. As a 2003 OLC opinion by yours truly explains, the Vacancies Reform Act is a separate source of authority. But while there are many individuals whom Trump could have appointed as “acting” United States Attorney pursuant to the Vacancies Reform Act, Halligan doesn’t qualify: She isn’t serving as a Senate-confirmed officer in another position, and she hadn’t been in the Department of Justice at all, much less for the 90 days required.
(This article also references Mational Review — The Indictment Against Comey Should Be Dismissed, on the substance of the indictment.)
Cato, September 11, 2025 — Politically Motivated Violence Is Rare in the United States
Left-wing terrorists murdered 65 people, or about 2 percent of the total.
