James Comey to the People ‘Down Below’ of the DoJ: ‘Hang On,’ ‘Two-and-a-Half-Years and Then We Can Rebuild These Institutions’

EXCERPT:

WELKER: “Do you have confidence in the Justice Department to serve the people of this country right now?"
COMEY: "I do not, looked at from the top level. The people running it, if you’re bragging about forcing out career prosecutors and agents because the president doesn’t like a lawful investigation they conducted, something is seriously broken at the top. But I have great confidence in the people down below who are just trying to hang on. And I’m urging them, hang on. Two and a half years, and then we can rebuild these institutions. But we need good people in those roles. America does."
