Conservative commentator Benny Johnson ripped into former FBI director James Comey during Monday’s Finnerty, telling viewers that Comey’s conduct demands scrutiny and accountability as the Justice Department’s probes continue to swirl. The segment made plain what hardworking Americans already know: the deep-state players who targeted President Trump for political reasons must be exposed, not protected by media theater.
Johnson didn’t mince words, echoing long-held conservative outrage by painting Comey as a serially self-serving figure and calling out the kind of charm-and-faux-sincerity routine that has long set off alarms on the right. That language — calling Comey a “pathological liar” and a creepy, calculating presence — isn’t new to critics who watched his 2016 and post‑2016 behavior, and it captures why so many Americans have never trusted him.
The timing could not be more significant: News reports and conservative shows have noted that federal probes touching Comey and his circle are now public, and many on the right smell vindication after years of being smeared for questioning the Russia hoax. If the Justice Department is serious about equal application of the law, these aren’t press stunts — they’re a chance to finally get to the truth and hold accountable those who weaponized federal power.
Americans remember the irregularities: FISA abuses, the Clinton email fiasco, leaks and memos that skirted policy and neutral law enforcement. Conservatives have long argued that these weren’t mere mistakes but a pattern of behavior that favored partisan outcomes, and it’s past time someone in power answered for it rather than lecturing the rest of us about civility.
This moment calls for real results, not cable-news preening. Patriots should cheer when investigators follow evidence and close cases quickly and fairly, but they should also demand transparency — no secrecy, no political cover, and no soft landings for the people who treated the FBI like a political club. The country needs justice, not a rerun of the same swampy excuses that let Comey and his allies walk away for years.
