Comey will challenge ‘selective,’ ‘vindictive’ prosecution in NC case
Former FBI Director James Comey will argue that a federal criminal case against him in North Carolina should be dismissed because of “selective” and “vindictive” prosecution.
A former US deputy solicitor general with more than 100 arguments before the US Supreme Court is one of six new lawyers who have joined former FBI Director James Comey’s defense team in North Carolina.
The odd-year elections yielded precisely what all the warning signs of 2025 portended: a strong Democratic wave that crushed Republican nominees in the gubernatorial races of New Jersey and Virginia, gave Democrats their largest legislative majorities in decades in both states, delivered left-wing results in various ballot initiatives, and elected a hate monger as attorney...
The 4th US Circuit Court of Appeals will allow a whistleblower to proceed with her federal lawsuit against Acadia opioid treatment clinics in North Carolina. The Asheville clinic’s former assistant medical director accused the company of falsifying claims for federal government payments.
It is an error of the highest order to assume morality has nothing to do with economics. The stewardship of resources, seemingly spiritually devoid things like monetary policy, and the economic indicator called inflation are directly tied to our moral decisions as a nation and as individuals. For those of religious faith, as many here...
The recently rehabilitated Marjorie Taylor Greene and a few other fringy figures have floated the idea of a national dissolution, or divorce, with Republicans and Democrats ensconced within their own national boundaries. While we are manifestly a divided nation, such a separation is impractical for many reasons, including the necessity of an integrated national defense. And...
The newly created Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, as part of the House Judiciary Committee, held its first hearing Thursday to investigate discrimination by the federal government and social media platforms against conservatives and others.
Growing up undercover Persian is one of the most surprising things for people after getting to know me. I was raised Persian since around five-years-old. My step-father is from Iran and married my mother. Daily, I experienced the Persian Iranian culture through the food, language, music, holidays, and people. It blended in well with my life as...
Are the ’70s back? Hopefully not the fashion, but I’ll take the music. Tube socks with short shorts are a bad look for most people. Yet the world would be a better place if we listened to a little more “Saturday Night Fever” and Yacht Rock. Two things I had hoped we’d never relive from...
The so-called mainstream media, consumed with COVID and Ukraine, continue to either discount or downright ignore the Durham report and a recent court filing, which, pending an investigation, could have huge ramifications for Democrats and the Biden administration. U.S. Sen. Thom Tillis, a North Carolina Republican, is crying foul. “The recent revelations of the Durham...
We’re winning in Afghanistan. That was the mantra, what they told us. Never entirely true. Some of it, maybe. Many of us in the U.S. were admittedly oblivious to the realities that Taliban fighters still maintained strongholds in the mountains, that ferocious attacks on allied military bases and outposts continued. Suicide bombings, car bombings. Winning? ...
When I reflect on the “Greatest Generation,” I’m always amazed at the selflessness which characterized them. Men and women stood tall, rolled up their sleeves — and fought in Europe and the Pacific, saving the world from tyranny. They knew the stakes, they understood their mission in combat or back home, and fought or worked...
