Embattled former FBI Director James Comey on Sunday called on the legion of Deep State prosecutors to “hang on” until Trump leaves office.

Comey appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday to trash the Trump Administration as he awaits his trial.

This is Comey’s third media appearance since a grand jury from the Eastern District of North Carolina indicted him on two felony counts:

COUNT ONE: Knowingly and willfully make a threat to take the life of, and to inflict bodily harm upon, the President of the United States;

COUNT TWO: knowingly and willfully did transmit in interstate and foreign commerce a communication that contained a threat to kill the President, Donald J. Trump

James Comey has insisted that he is innocent.

On Sunday, Comey told the legion of Deep State prosecutors to “hang on” for 2 and a half more years so they can rebuild the Justice Department.

“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,” Comey said.

“I’m urging them, hang on two and a half years, and then we can rebuild these institutions,” Comey added.

WATCH:

Comey’s call to the Deep State prosecutors comes after former CIA Director John Brennan admitted there is a “legion” of operatives in the DOJ and CIA resisting Trump’s orders.

“There’s still a legion of professionals in the law enforcement environment, Department of Justice, as well as the CIA and other places,” Brennan said last week to MSNOW host Nicolle Wallace.

“The ones who are refusing to follow politically motivated prosecutions, those who are refusing to support any type of political activities in the part of the Trump administration that are inconsistent with the authorities, the responsibilities of the intelligence community, law enforcement community, and Department of Justice,” Brennan confidently said to Nicolle Wallace.

“So, we have to rely on these individuals to stand up to their professional responsibilities and also to courts, to the judges…” Brennan said.

They don’t even hide it anymore.
