Chicago – August 25, 2024
Former FBI Director James Comey has endorsed the Democratic presidential ticket, announcing on Friday that he supports Vice President Kamala Harris.
Comey expressed his belief that Harris represents a new dawn for America, stating, “Everyone who cares about the rule of law and America’s essential role in the world should vote for Harris and Walz. I will.” The endorsement comes amid longstanding tension between Comey and former President Donald Trump, who fired Comey in May 2017.
Comey has been vocal in his criticism of Trump, describing him as “morally unfit to be president.” Originally a Republican, Comey previously endorsed President Joe Biden during the 2020 Democratic primary, although Biden’s campaign initially did not fully embrace Comey’s support.
