It has been less than a week since a prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia was removed office and replaced by President Donald Trump's loyalist, Lindsey Halligan. Now, that same district is expected to announce the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, MSNBC reported on Wednesday.

Legal analysts had a debate over how Comey could be indicted in Virginia after accusations he lied to Congress during 2020 testimony on Russia's interference in the 2016 election. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro has jurisdiction over D.C.

President Donald Trump raged at "deranged radical leftists" in a new Truth Social post on Wednesday after a shooting at an immigration facility in Dallas left two detainees dead and another one injured.

Earlier in the day, gunman Joshua Jahn opened fire at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas. Bullets were found at the scene containing phrases that seemed "anti-ICE in nature," according to official statements.

A federal judge in Rhode Island has declared that President Donald Trump's policy of requiring states to cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as a condition of receiving disaster relief from the Federal Emergency Management Agency is illegal and unconstitutional.

Then he went out of his way to throw a broadside at the Supreme Court in anticipation of it arbitrarily blocking the ruling.

FBI Director Kash Patel posted a photo of bullets he claimed were from the alleged shooter in Dallas, Texas, after an unmarked ICE van was fired on Wednesday morning. The photo showed that the phrase "Anti-ICE" was written on a bullet, leading to several questions from those who have noticed the lack of reliability from Patel in the past.

Several noted that a true anti-ICE activist would likely not write "anti-ICE" and use other more popular phrases repeated by protesters, such "abolish ICE."

Just as the 2016 campaign was beginning, JD Vance was texting his roommate his fears that Donald Trump could be "America's Hitler." Now, Vance is demanding that people stop using the word "Nazi" to attack those on the far right.

As Vance said in North Carolina on Wednesday, "If you want to stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi."

The Department of Homeland Security is backing down after right-leaning podcaster Theo Von unleashed public fury on them.

Von accused DHS of pilfering his image for its own social media promotion without permission, NOTUS reported.

President Donald Trump's Justice Department is expected to announce the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey this week, MSNBC's Ken Dilanian and Carol Leonnig reported Wednesday.

"Former FBI Director James Comey, for years the target of President Trump’s ire, is expected to be indicted in the coming days in the Eastern District of Virginia, where a prosecutor who opposed bringing the case was recently fired, three sources familiar with the matter told MSNBC," wrote Dilanian on X.

The Department of Justice retracted a letter that suggested an FBI agent who worked on the Sandy Hook school shooting case was being investigated as retribution for lawsuits against conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

The letter from Ed Martin, director of the DOJ's Weaponization Working Group, implied that FBI agent William Aldenberg was being scrutinized because the families of Sandy Hook victims sued Jones. Aldenberg was a plaintiff in that lawsuit.

Vice President J.D. Vance argued that the government's threats to take action against ABC and its affiliates over Jimmy Kimmel amounted to "the FCC commissioner making a joke."

During an event in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Wednesday, a reporter suggested that FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr had put "pressure" on Disney to take Kimmel off the air following his remarks about the murder of Charlie Kirk.

Even some of President Donald Trump's own close advisers, from the beginning, have had no confidence in his intelligence or sense, biographer Michael Wolff told the Daily Beast's "Inside Trump's Head" podcast Wednesday.

Specifically, Wolff said, Trump's medically unsupported announcement that the administration blames Tylenol use during pregnancy for autism — something even his own Medicaid administrator, Dr. Mehmet Oz, doesn't seem to believe — reminded Wolff of a conversation he had right after the 2016 election with Trump's then-adviser, Sam Nunberg.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) faced backlash after he downplayed President Donald Trump's efforts to silence late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.

During a Wednesday interview on CNBC, host Andrew Ross Sorkin pressed Jordan about comments Trump made after Kimmel returned from his suspension following remarks about Charlie Kirk's murderer.
