The expression may or may not have come from the restaurant industry, but it is urban slang for murdering someone and Tillis knows it - as did everyone else, which is why Comey did it in the first place.
I doubt Comey will be convicted on this but it will force him to either admit he lied about "finding" the shells or he will have to committ perjury. The more we can get him to talk the more likely it is he will dig a hole for himself.
OH, and he has to spend money and waste time defending himself. The process is the punishment.
In a gentler time I would abhor such tactics but now we have little choice. The aggressors set the rules of engagement in any war, and they have made it plain as day we are in a war. They chose to go here; we need to adapt their tactics. For decades we said we wanted to "be the bigger man" and avoided a tit-for-tat because we didn't want it to come to this. But it vame to this years ago and we are only fighting back now in kind.
Comey is guilty, even if it isn't much of a crime, and Comey was guilty of some really bad crimes he's never had to pay for. So I have no problem with going after him here. I just wish we would have gone after him much harder earlier.
The guy needs to go to prison. Until we start handing out long prison sentences to these people they will keep doing this sort of thing.

Certainly Comey is guilty of much more than "he sells sea shells by the sea shore." I can't figure why they're going after him for this penny-ante stuff. From the start, he was a lousy FBI head, and as soon as Trump showed up, Comey had it in for him. I'm sure they could find twenty things to indict Comey on.
