WASHINGTON – Former FBI official Nikki Floris broke down in tears outside a federal courtroom Tuesday during a preliminary hearing on charges that she and another ex-bureau official lied to Congress about burying the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Floris was seen weeping in a courthouse hallway during a break in the probable cause hearing in the district court for Washington, DC.
She and fellow former FBI official, Bradley Benavides, self-surrendered last week and face up to five years in prison if convicted of lying to the House Judiciary Committee in 2023 about their involvement in discrediting stories about the troubled first son.
When a plot against the king or emperor fails the plotters usually get to enjoy the loss of their heads. All this broad is facing is five years in the slammer and she's crying about it. Look at what happened to Brutus.
She knew what she was doing was wrong, but she chose to do it because she thought the Democrats would be the winning side. She thought wrong and she has to pay for her crime, and it WAS a crime, no matter her motives.
So cry me a river, but it isn't and shouldn't matter. This chick deserves to be in prison. She attempted to subvert the elections - the bedrock of the American political system - and she made war on the truth. That cannot go unpunished.
Rest assured; if it had worked she would still be working for the government and she would be all smiles now. She is only unhappy because she got caught and is facing the penalty.
Unfortunately this is a D.C. judge and the two FBI agents are claiming they don't remember the multiple e-mails they shared discussing the case. Their attorney also characterized this as a witch hunt because Kash Patel ordered an agent to look for crimes - something unusual, since the FBI has been protecting its own for decades now.
So there is a real chance this pair will walk away free. But let us hope the judge throws the book at them. They lied to Congress. They lied to America. They were busy with the media concocting lies about the Hunter Biden laptop when they clearly knew better. A fair jury trial would convict them.
So bawl all you want little girl; you still belong in prison.
