President Trump Lashes Out at Comey Following Release of DOJ IG Report
by Cristina Laila August 29, 2019 
President Trump on Thursday afternoon reacted to the Inspector General’s report on James Comey’s mishandling of his memos, including classified information.
The IG report concluded that Comey “set a dangerous example for the over 35,000 current FBI employees,” but Barr declined prosecution.
Trump lashed out at Comey and asserted he should be ashamed of himself.
“Perhaps never in the history of our Country has someone been more thoroughly disgraced and excoriated than James Comey in the just released Inspector General’s Report. He should be ashamed of himself!” Trump said in a tweet.

The DOJ Inspector General released a report on James Comey Thursday morning on his mishandling of memos he drafted stemming from nine conversations he had with President Trump.
Although it was determined that Comey violated FBI policies pertaining to retention, handling and dissemination of FBI records and information, Barr declined prosecution.
Comey used his personal scanner and private email account to send his attorneys four different memos, two of which contained classified information.
Comey used his personal printer to generate two paper copies of Memo # 2 (contained classified information) and he told investigators that he put one of the copies in his personal safe at home where he stored other personal, family-related items.
Comey told investigators that his Trump-hating, pussy-hat-wearing wife had access to the safe, but at the time she supposedly didn’t know where he kept the key. Right.
Shortly after the IG report was released, he taunted critics, including President Trump in a pair of tweets.
Comey said he was “defamed” and added that he was owed an apology.
DOJ IG "found no evidence that Comey or his attorneys released any of the classified information contained in any of the memos to members of the media." I don’t need a public apology from those who defamed me, but a quick message with a “sorry we lied about you” would be nice.

Comey then hit Trump in his second tweet.
And to all those who’ve spent two years talking about me “going to jail” or being a “liar and a leaker”—ask yourselves why you still trust people who gave you bad info for so long, including the president.
