Comey’s Biden appointed judge has glaring conflicts of interest but he won’t recuse himself. This case is over before it starts!
The judge assigned to Comey’s case is a Biden judge who is absolutely totally conflicted but he is making no mention of recusing himself.
Judge Nachmanoff has personal conflicts with Comey. Michael Nachmanoff, the federal judge presiding over former FBI Director James Comey’s criminal trial, shares a legal history with Comey that raises questions about judicial impartiality.
Nachmanoff clerked for Judge Leonie Brinkema in the Eastern District of Virginia from 1995 to 1996, when Brinkema was overseeing the Zacarias Moussaoui terrorism trial linked to the 9/11 attacks.
James Comey, as Unit Chief of the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division, was deeply involved in investigating and prosecuting Moussaoui. Given the sensitive nature of the case, Nachmanoff likely accessed classified, high-level information and had professional proximity to Comey’s team. This connection suggests more than a casual relationship and highlights the need to consider potential conflicts of interest as Nachmanoff oversees Comey’s prosecution.
Nachmanoff advanced from his clerkship to private practice, federal public defense, magistrate judge, and finally a U.S. District Judge appointed by President Biden. There is no public record of direct employment by Comey, but their intertwined roles in national security cases are significant to judicial fairness.
Given that Comey is actively seeking to remove the prosecuting attorney from his case, it raises a reasonable question of whether a new judge should be assigned as well. The high level of coordination and close professional involvement between Judge Nachmanoff—who clerked during the Zacarias Moussaoui trial central to Comey’s FBI work—and the complexities of this current prosecution present a glaring conflict of interest. Considering Comey’s extensive interactions with the legal system and the deeply personal animus he has expressed toward the President of the United States, it is of the utmost importance that the presiding judge be fully capable of impartially understanding both the legal and personal dimensions motivating Comey’s actions, including why he faces charges of lying under oath on two felony counts.
Reassigning this case to avoid any questions of partiality would strengthen public confidence in the fairness and integrity of the judicial process. (See the following sources)

In addition to the relationship with Comey, Judge Nachamanoff has a relationship with Barack Obama that would lead a man of integrity recuse himself from this incredibly significant case. Here is the relationship:
BREAKING: The father of the Biden-appointed judge hearing the Comey case–Michael Nachmanoff–was a friend and fellow traveler of Obama’s communist father. He gave $7,500+ to Obama/DSCC/DCCC/DNC, records show.
The judge will arraign Comey Oct 9 at 10 AM at Alexandria courthouse.

And the Biden judge was backed by the corrupt Virginia Senators Warner and Kaine.

Biden Judge Michael Nachmanoff should recuse himself now due to his many conflicts of interest. This would be the right thing to do which tells us a lot about this judge and the direction this case is going.
