Comey Breaks Silence After DOJ Fires His Daughter

James Comey warned of a “grave danger” to public trust in federal law enforcement after the Department of Justice fired his daughter, Maurene Comey, from her role as a prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York.

In a video posted to Substack on Sunday, the former FBI director whom Donald Trump fired for malfeasance during his first term reacted to his daughter’s dismissal last week, echoing a well-worn Democratic narrative that the president is relentlessly “hammering” the DOJ and undermining its independence.

Maurene Comey most recently led the prosecution of hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs and previously played a key role in the high-profile cases against Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, Newsweek reported.

The DOJ did not provide a reason for her dismissal. However, the timing—amid lingering controversy and growing suspicion over the handling of the Epstein investigation—has further fueled an already politically charged climate, Newsweek claimed.
