The report says Comey violated both FBI policy and his employment agreement by not turning over some memos when he was fired and later by leaking details of the memos to the media.
But the report also discloses that the FBI has declined to prosecute Comey for these violations, and — notably — it says there is “no evidence” that he or his attorneys leaked classified information.
That last point is key, because Trump has accused Comey of exactly that, and repeatedly — at least 10 times over two years, according to a review of Trump’s comments.
“He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted,” he tweeted April on April 13, 2018.
“He leaked classified information,” Trump told Sean Hannity in March of this year.
“Well, if somebody in our team leaked classified information, it would be years in jail.”
