The Daily Herold: September 26, 2025 – Comey Indicted, FBI Agents Revealed, and Shutdown Strategy

Jon Herold kicks off Friday’s Daily Herold with the bombshell indictment of former FBI Director James Comey on obstruction and false statement charges, asking why Durham ignored the same evidence years earlier. He walks through John Solomon’s reporting, the testimony of Comey’s inner circle, and why this could be the first domino in a larger accountability push. The show then digs into a newly released FBI after-action report exposing 274 agents deployed on January 6th, fueling questions about political bias and withheld evidence.

Jon also unpacks Trump’s latest executive actions, designating Antifa a domestic terror organization, issuing a new NSPM targeting organized political violence, and reasserting the death penalty in D.C., and connects them to a broader strategy that could tie into an overarching RICO case. The episode closes with speculation on the Pentagon’s unprecedented generals meeting at Quantico, looming government shutdown brinkmanship, and China’s conspicuous silence on Trump’s TikTok deal. With humor, sharp analysis, and first-principles thinking, Jon ties the week’s chaos into a clear narrative of corruption, lawfare, and strategy.
