President Donald Trump hinted at jail time for James Comey after the former FBI director admitted that he was wrong about the FBI’s spying on a Trump 2016 presidential campaign aide.

Comey and other intelligence community leaders claimed for years that the FBI’s applications to spy on the aide, Carter Page, were done correctly. But Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz shredded those claims in a report released last week, revealing 17 significant errors or omissions and additional errors made in following internal guidelines.
