James Comey, the former FBI director (now a self-help guru), has bestowed his latest wisdom upon the world. Speaking to current FBI agents, he offered a groundbreaking strategy for dealing with the return of Donald Trump: sleep, love, laugh and exercise. That’s right, folks. The man who once ran the nation’s top law enforcement agency now sounds like he’s crafting a mindfulness retreat.

Comey’s advice suggests that FBI agents should brace themselves for another Trump term by embracing self-care. Of course, this is classic Comey – always positioning himself as the noble warrior against the supposed villainy of Trump. Never mind his messy history of the botched handling of Clinton’s emails, the Steele dossier debacle, or the little issue of FISA abuse.
Comey is on the job to remind agents that when faced with political inconvenience, the best thing to do is practice their deep breathing and maybe enjoy a nice rom-com and not to let the “darkness of bad people steal the joy of public service.”
One has to wonder though…If a former FBI director is telling agents how to emotionally endure a Trump presidency, does that mean they’re expecting (or planning) another round of deep-state shenanigans – and need to rest up for it?
If so, at least his pals know the formula for resisting evil. Maybe next time, he’ll even publish a coloring book for stressed-out federal agents.
