According to sources, President Donald Trump privately vented about having a Comey work in his administration.
Comey, who prosecuted Jeffrey Epstein, was fired from the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office amid a public uproar over the attorney general's decision not to release additional files in the case.
The decision to dismiss Comey was delivered as the Justice Department faces renewed scrutiny over its handling of the sex offender's case.
Trump continues to face backlash from his MAGA supporters over his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. He's called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to release "whatever she thinks is credible," while saying he doesn't understand the interest in the case, calling it "sordid" but "boring."
