Indictment of James Comey
On September 25, 2025, former FBI Director James Comey was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of making a false statement and obstructing a congressional investigation.
The indictment alleges that Comey lied to Congress in 2020 by denying he had authorized leaks of sensitive information to the media.
This action followed public calls for Comey’s prosecution from former President Donald Trump, leading to an indictment from a grand jury secured by Trump’s former personal lawyer, Lindsey Halligan.
Comey has denied the charges and stated he will fight them in court.
Departure of FBI personnel
On September 30, 2025, sources revealed that hundreds of FBI employees, including agents, were leaving the bureau as part of a government worker buyout program.
The same day, CBS News reported that nearly two dozen agents had also been fired in recent weeks.
These firings included agents who had been disciplined for taking a knee in 2020 during protests in Washington, D.C., following the murder of George Floyd.
End of partnership with Anti-Defamation League
On October 1, 2025, FBI Director Kash Patel announced that the FBI was cutting ties with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
This decision followed conservative criticism of the ADL for including murdered right-wing activist Charlie Kirk in a “Glossary of Extremism and Hate”.
The ADL later removed the glossary entirely.
