WASHINGTON — Former FBI director James Comey has been on the sidelines after his ouster, while his FBI led an investigation into possible co-ordination between Russia and the Trump campaign.

But a man long defined by his independent streak, willingness to buck protocol and even a flair for the dramatic could resurface to publicly defend himself against the attacks of President Donald Trump.

Former FBI Assistant Director Jim Yacone said of Comey: “He’s not shy, and he’s got a tremendous moral compass. Above all, he will want to see the truth come out.”
