James Comey’s son-in-law resigns as
federal prosecutor just minutes after
ex-FBI director’s indictment
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 9/26/2025 1:01:06 PM
James Comey’s son-in-law abruptly resigned from his gig as a federal prosecutor Thursday — just minutes after the ex-FBI director was indicted by a federal grand jury. Troy Edwards Jr. quit his position as a senior national security prosecutor within the Eastern District of Virginia, which is the same office now prosecuting his father-in-law. In a one-sentence resignation letter addressed to new US Attorney Lindsey Halligan, Edwards said he was leaving “to uphold my oath to the Constitution and the country.”

Erika Kirk made her first appearance on "The Charlie Kirk Show" following his assassination as she recited her late husband's famed catch phrase and revealed that there's literally a treasure trove of never-before-seen content.
On Friday, Kirk's widow said that Charlie left her and his team at Turning Point USA the "blueprint" running past 2030 and made it clear his radio show and foundation are going nowhere after he was murdered on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on September 10. It starts at the 1:39:44 minute mark
Iranian state media on Friday announced the regime in Tehran has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Russia’s state nuclear corporation, Rosatom, to build four nuclear power plants in Iran.
The deal is valued at roughly $25 billion.
Russia’s state-run Tass news agency said on Friday that the four nuclear power plants will all be part of one facility, the Hormoz Nuclear Power Plant in the southern Iranian province of Hormozgan.
The company that manages the Hormoz plant said the first of the four nuclear power units to be constructed with Russian assistance will be commissioned by 2031.
Police are investigating after an apparent death threat was daubed onto the wall of a Turin railway station during an hours-long occupation of the interchange by anti-Israel activists, the latest manifestation in a days-long action by Antifa and other left-wing groups in support of Palestine.
The Prime Minister of Italy Giorgia Meloni said she was honoured to be compared with assassinated political activist Charlie Kirk after Palestine protesters wrote “Meloni: Come Kirk” [‘Meloni: Like Kirk’] on the wall of Torino Porta Susa station in Turin.
The threat is particularly insidious given Italy’s long history of political violence including the ‘Years of Lead‘,

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned California on Friday that his department would withhold hundreds of millions of dollars in federal highway funding from California if it continues issuing commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) to illegal aliens and other ineligible foreigners.
Duffy's threat stems from an emergency rule the Department of Transportation rolled out imposing stricter rules on states regarding CDLs, prohibiting them from issuing the licenses to foreigners unless they hold employment-based visas and can pass a federal immigration status check. The rule came in response to an ongoing audit that revealed "a catastrophic pattern of states issuing licenses illegally to foreign drivers"—particularly in California—

The grand jury that indicted ex-FBI Director James Comey for lying to Congress rejected one count brought by the Justice Department, allowing the ex-bureau chief to dodge a false statement charge over his claim that he did not recall a CIA referral memo on Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign plan to tie Donald Trump to Russia.
Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 public report revealed that “the Intelligence Community received the Clinton Plan intelligence in late July 2016.” This intelligence related to an alleged plan by the Clinton campaign to attempt to link Trump to Russia and Vladimir Putin in an effort to distract from her private email server scandal.

Another illegal alien who was given a commercial driver's license in California, a violation of federal laws and regulations, caused a major car crash.
"Dalilah Coleman’s life was forever changed when an illegal alien driving an 18-wheeler slammed into her and her family. The crash resulted in her inability to walk, talk, eat orally, or attend kindergarten as planned. She was in a coma for three weeks and required six months of hospital treatment before her family could bring her home. On June 20, 2024, Partap Singh—an illegal alien from India—caused a multi-car pileup while driving a commercial 18-wheeler in the Sanctuary State of California.
United States Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) has revealed that a number of American companies are abusing the H-1B visa program to fill diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) jobs. The revelation is especially egregious as some progressive political figures have justified DEI programs and employment as a means to lift up so-called “marginalized” ethnic minority Americans. “This is outrageous. Some U.S. companies are using H-1B visas to staff their DEI offices,” Sen. Schmitt wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “I’ve reviewed numerous examples of hospitals, universities and other employers hiring foreign H-1B workers as DEI bureaucrats. I’m urging USCIS [U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services] to work with us

Amazon has agreed to pay $2.5 billion to settle FTC allegations that the company “tricked and trapped” consumers into signing up for Prime memberships and hindered their attempts to cancel the subscription. FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson said, “The Trump-Vance FTC is committed to fighting back when companies try to cheat ordinary Americans out of their hard-earned pay.”
CNBC reports that Amazon has reached a $2.5 billion settlement with the FTC over allegations that the company engaged in deceptive practices related to its Prime subscription program. The settlement, announced on Thursday, comes just three days into the trial between Amazon and the FTC in a Seattle federal court.
Millions of dollars sent to Barack Obama’s foundation has ended up being donated to a progressive fund that supported anti-Israel groups, accused of setting up encampments at Ivy League universities, according to public documents.
Donations to The Obama Foundation, set up by the former president to build a 19-acre campus including a museum, athletic facility and fruit and vegetable gardens in Chicago, totalling $2 million were instead sent on to Tides Foundation in 2022 and 2023, according to their latest available federal tax filings.
The cash was earmarked to “support local organizations that are working to reduce violence in communities,” according to the nonprofit’s filings.
A trio of rising Democratic Party stars are slated to speak at an anti-Israel convention this week alongside a deep roster of Hamas sympathizers and anti-Semites.
Michigan Senate candidate and former CNN contributor Abdul El-Sayed (D.), Rep. Ro Khanna (D., Calif.), and Michigan lieutenant governor Garlin Gilchrist (D.) are listed in the lineup for ArabCon, an event hosted by the American-Arab Discrimination Committee (ADC) in Dearborn, Mich., a majority-Muslim town dubbed "America’s Jihad Capital" because so many of its city and religious leaders have sided with Hamas against the United States and Israel.
All three of the Democrats are running—or likely running, in Khanna’s case—for prominent political offices.

274 Agents in J6 Crowd – Demands to

President Trump calls attention to recent FBI admissions that around 250 FBI agents were placed in the crowd during January 6, 2021, protests. The purpose and premise of the FBI operation remains sketchy.
(Snip) FBI had secretly placed, against all Rules, Regulations, Protocols, and Standards, 274 FBI Agents into the Crowd just prior to, and during, the January 6th Hoax. This is different from what Director Christopher Wray stated, over and over again! That’s right, as it now turns out, FBI Agents were at, and in, the January 6th Protest, probably acting as Agitators (snip)
I want to know who each and every one of these so-called “Agents” are,
Kamala Harris’s book 107 Days confirms two truths: Joe Biden never should have sought re-election and she did not belong on a national ticket.
Biden was snared by Father Time and hubris. The 46th president was not the transformational figure he saw in the mirror. More than half the US rated him a failure. “People hate Joe Biden,” Harris quotes David Plouffe, her senior strategist and an Obama White House veteran, as saying.
What’s unstated is that Harris was never a vote-magnet.
The pain of a government shutdown won’t just be political: Millions of low-income women and children could be left hungry as soon as next week if congressional Democrats and the White House do not come to a deal.
The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children will soon run out of funding. If they don’t cut a deal to keep the government open, a senior White House official told RealClearPolitics, “Democrats would be turning their back on WIC recipients.”
Called WIC for short, the program provides vouchers for healthy food to low-income pregnant and postpartum women,

In a chilling social media post, FBI Director Kash Patel described how Wednesday’s sniper at a Dallas ICE facility gathered intelligence online for the ambush that left one ICE detainee dead and two seriously injured. Authorities say suspected killer Joshua Jahn, 29, committed suicide after the ambush.
While retracing Jahn’s movements and writings, the FBI found he reviewed a document that listed Dallas DHS locations, and he “searched apps that tracked the presence of ICE agents.” Marcos Charles, the ICE executive associate director for enforcement and removal operations, confirmed the gunman utilized these apps to carry out the attack.

The State Department announced Friday that it will revoke the visa of Colombian President Gustavo Petro after he called on US troops to “disobey” President Trump during a New York City protest with controversial Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters.
“Earlier today, Colombian president [Gustavo Petro] stood on a NYC street and urged US soldiers to disobey orders and incite violence,” the State Department posted on X. We will revoke Petro’s visa due to his reckless and incendiary actions.” Petro, who was in town for the United Nations General Assembly, got on a bullhorn outside the UN’s headquarters-
Vindictive former FBI Director James Comey’s power trip is finally over as he has learned the “rule of law” he so often speaks of applies to him too.
A federal grand jury has indicted Comey for obstructing a congressional investigation into the disclosure of sensitive information and with making false statements to the federal government, according to a DOJ statement. The false statements charge carries a penalty of up to five years in prison, which means Comey may be fitted for the prison jumpsuit he so dearly wanted to see President Donald Trump wear.

A stranger in a “Darth Vader-like mask” repeatedly punched and stabbed a 26-year-old woman in the back in an unprovoked attack inside Brooklyn’s Prospect Park last week, sources said – leaving the victim “angry” that she has to worry for her safety in the city.
Avery Catherine Lorio – a dietician originally from Arkansas by way of California — told cops she was jogging on South Lake Drive near the tennis courts inside the iconic greenspace around 5:15 a.m. on Sept. 17 when the menace approached her, slugged her multiple times and plunged something into her back, the sources said.
On September 14 in The Media, Charlie Kirk and guns, I engaged in a bit of informed speculation about the reported Mauser 98 rifle alleged to have been used in the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I also suggested that if the assassin had never fired the rifle, if it was not properly zeroed for him, it’s likely hitting Kirk in the neck was an indication that he nearly missed. This assumes the killer was aiming for a chest or head shot.
Now we know the rifle was a Mauser 98, apparently “sporterized” by adding a modern polymer stock and what appears to be a relatively low-powered, inexpensive scope.
Ukrainian sources confirm that the country was only able to survive Russia’s original onslaught, when the world expected Kyiv to fall in days, because President Donald Trump had provided it with Javelin missiles in his first term.
Now he can end the war by arming Ukraine with game-changing Tomahawk long-range missiles and other munitions.
Reportedly, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky made that ask in his Tuesday sitdown with Trump. Trump now says Ukraine can win the war and retake land captured by Russia — perhaps even Crimea, which President Barack Obama passively let Vladimir Putin seize in 2014.
