A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership by James B. ComeyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I expected this to be an insider's The Emperor Wears No Clothes account rushed into print, which would have been fine with me. Maybe rushed, but certainly much broader in scope. Comey's long career in federal law enforcement allows him to relate details on the Martha Stewart insider trading desk, the showdown at John Ashcroft's hospital bed over the STELLAR WIND surveillance program—a massive NSA effort authorized by President George W. Bush after 9/11—and more. This also includes Comey's history in fighting the mafia under Rudolph Giuliani. This includes conversations with "Sammy the Bull" Gravano which allows Comey to compare the mafia organizational style of demanded loyalty with the famous personal loyalty demand from Trump.
