In Georgia, DOJ celebrates its 26th courtroom loss in the battle to steal state voter rolls. An Arizona appeals court overturned a manslaughter sentence because of an absolutely bonkers use of AI. A judge in DC Superior Court dismissed vandalism charges against Olympic canoeist David Hearn with prejudice. The Justice Department filed an ethics complaint against almost every judge in the District of Minnesota for talking to the New York Times about what it was like to have their orders blatantly disregarded day after day. A judge in Washington ruled that the president has no power to fire US Attorneys installed by judges when there is an unfilled vacancy. The three hat dance is so back, baby! DOOFUS OF THE DAY: Revisionist historian Geoff Shepard, a former Nixon aide, is making the rounds at DOJ pitching his hot take: "Watergate As Lawfare." The WSJ reports that there's an appetite inside the Justice Department for the theory that all those guys who went to jail for Nixon were persecuted victims. MAIN SHOW: JGG v. Trump, the first major case where the Trump DOJ defied a court order, sending hundreds of men to CECOT in El Salvador, is back at the DC Circuit. This week, the entire court sitting en banc, heard oral argument on the issue of whether Judge James Boasberg has the power to do anything about flagrant contempt of his rulings. Audio here! SUBSCRIBER BONUS: The US Supreme Court, via a 6-3 shadow docket order, stayed two lower court rulings prohibiting the administration from deporting immigrants to third countries without due process, without notice or the opportunity to raise a credible fear or torture or persecution. The New York Times reported that the administration was unable to comply with the court's order to stop, so it immediately ran to the Supreme Court for help, which it got. US v.

I dropped another H-1B investigation, once again revealing a body shop with questionable business practices. I confronted the business owner of Global Star IT Serve LLC and asked him why he wasn't paying his employee, then he slammed the door in my face and his wife called the cops. But I brought even more receipts that you didn't see in the main investigation, which shows just how bad things got. My H-1B work is making it all the way to the top. During my visit to the White House, I spoke with DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin, and he said he's familiar with my work. The Trump administration has been working overtime to repair the damage the Biden regime did to this country. I sat down with Attorney General Todd Blanche to discuss how he's undoing Biden's weaponization of the Justice Department and whether there are consequences on the way for the people who carried out Biden's dirty work.► Watch my newest H-1B investigation here: https://youtu.be/CVO8cVmvbcc ► Catch up on my H-1B visa investigations: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkJEwf2wliqrtNlYs9D78nmE_Gnja_PpC ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area. ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1 Timestamps: 00:00 - Inside My Latest H-1B Investigation 16:41 - Taking H-1B Fraud to the Top 33:31 - Repairing the Damage Biden Did Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Managing Editor Tyler McBrien and Senior Editors Anna Bower and Michael Feinberg to talk through the week's big news in national security, including:“Third Country's the Charm.” On Tuesday, the Supreme Court cleared the way—for the third time—for the Trump administration to resume deporting migrants to “third countries” with which they have no connection, staying a lower court ruling that found the policy unlawful and agreeing to hear the case on the merits in December. The decision comes days after the administration quietly flew a group of Somali men—some with no criminal records, who had been held at Guantánamo Bay for a month after being told their plane was only stopping in Cuba to refuel—to Mogadishu, on a flight that departed hours after an appeals court made clear the third-country removal policy was blocked. It also comes as lower courts are increasingly finding the administration in contempt for violating their orders in deportation cases, and as the full D.C. Circuit weighs whether Judge James Boasberg can continue his contempt inquiry into last year's Alien Enemies Act flights. What does this pattern tell us about the administration's relationship with the courts? And how far it is willing to push its immigration agenda?“Here Comes the Bribe.” Last week, ProPublica revealed that, by late 2024, FBI anti-corruption agents believed they had enough evidence to seek a sweeping bribery investigation stemming from a defense contractor's illegal donations to Maine Senator Susan Collins and other members of Congress—only for the probe to die when the Trump administration gutted the FBI and Justice Department units that handle public corruption cases. Collins denies any wrongdoing and has called the contractor a liar, but the story has become a central issue in her tight reelection race. It's also just the latest in a string of stories raising questions about public integrity in and around the Trump administration, from the Putin-linked Russian oligarch that secretly bankrolled Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding, to the Kash Patel- and Todd Blanche-studded wedding of former U.S. Attorney Alina Habba to a Turkish businessman with close ties to the Erdoğan government—with mixed martial arts manager Abdelaziz Ali, a former FBI source and suspected double agent, in attendance. What does the Collins story tell us about what happens when no one is minding the store on public corruption? And how worried should we be about who is buying access to the president's inner circle?“Manufactured Content.” President Trump escalated his war on the press this month, banning CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House and having the Secret Service seize their reporters' press passes over what he described as years of unfair coverage. A federal judge has since temporarily ordered their access restored, finding the ban likely violated their due process rights. But the White House isn't just restricting who gets to tell its story—it's also paying to tell its own, launching a series of taxpayer-funded TV ads that feature President Trump and closely track his campaign messaging, including one nearly identical to a 2024 campaign spot, just weeks before the midterms. The White House insists these are merely public service announcements. Is the administration breaking longstanding norms in an effort to take control of the narrative?

Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that the Justice Department must expedite processing of most of Democracy Defenders Fund's FOIA requests concerning Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and DOJ's handling of the Epstein files. DDF had sought records including Epstein and Maxwell investigative files mentioning Donald Trump or Mar-a-Lago, communications among senior DOJ officials such as Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, records discussing how Trump references in the files were handled, calendars and meeting materials, and documents identifying Epstein associates, visitors and flight-log passengers. The judge found that the requests qualified for expedited treatment under DOJ regulations because the Epstein files were plainly a matter of “widespread and exceptional media interest” and because there were legitimate questions about government integrity affecting public confidence. She granted expedited processing in full for DDF's July 22, 2025 request and for most of its July 28 requests, while narrowing portions that had sought records involving virtually any DOJ official to the specific senior officials actually identified in the requests.The court did, however, reject DDF's separate argument that it qualified for expedited processing under FOIA's statutory “compelling need” provision. Kollar-Kotelly found that DDF had not shown it was primarily an information-dissemination organization, concluding that its principal activities were litigation and advocacy rather than journalism or publishing. That distinction did not undo the more important practical result: DOJ still has to move the Epstein-related requests to the front of the line under its own expedited-processing regulation. The September 30, 2026 ruling therefore amounted to a substantial transparency victory for DDF, forcing faster DOJ action on records concerning the government's handling of Epstein materials while stopping short of granting every legal theory DDF advanced.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.dcd.284000.28.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This Day in Legal History: The Integration of Ole MissOn September 30, 1962, James Meredith, a Black Air Force veteran, was escorted onto the campus of the University of Mississippi by federal marshals to enroll under a federal court order. The university had rejected him for no reason other than his race. The Fifth Circuit ordered him admitted, and Justice Hugo Black refused to let that order be delayed. Mississippi's governor, Ross Barnett, personally blocked Meredith's registration anyway. The federal appeals court held him in contempt.After nightfall on the 30th, a crowd of students, locals, and segregationists attacked the roughly 120 marshals guarding Meredith. That night President Kennedy went on national television to explain why the federal government would enforce the order, the address today's opening quote comes from. The riot killed two people, including a French journalist, and injured hundreds. It took thousands of federal troops to end it. The next morning, Meredith registered.Listeners may remember we covered Little Rock earlier this month. Ole Miss is the same principle five years later: a federal court order is binding, even on a state determined to resist it, and the federal government will enforce it. The Constitution's guarantees mean what courts say they mean, and a governor doesn't get to veto them. That idea of judicial orders as binding law, not suggestions, has come up again and again on this show this month.The Supreme Court has let the administration resume deporting migrants to so-called third countries: nations that aren't named in their removal orders and that many of them have no connection to. In a brief order, with the three liberal justices objecting, the Court paused a February ruling by a federal district judge. That ruling required immigration authorities to give people more due process before sending them to a third country, and a federal appeals court had largely upheld it earlier this month. The administration says it has used the policy to deport tens of thousands of people to Mexico and to countries in Africa and Latin America, often after their home countries refused to take them back. The legal issue is notice and an opportunity to be heard. The challengers argue that if the government plans to send someone to a country where they may face persecution or torture, due process and the Convention Against Torture require that the person be told where they're going and get a real chance to object first. The government's position is that it has broad authority over removals and that lower courts overstepped. The Court also agreed to hear the case in full in December, and it asked the parties to brief several questions: whether the lower courts had jurisdiction at all, whether they could order nationwide relief, and whether the policy violates due process or the torture convention. Those first two questions matter well beyond immigration, because they go to the reach of federal judges' power over executive policy. For now, the deportations resume while those questions are decided. As with the SAVE voter-verification order last week, the emergency docket has put the risk of error on the people affected while the case is pending.Supreme Court lets Trump resume third-country deportations | Reuters · NPR · CBS NewsFormer special counsel Jack Smith testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee at a hearing its Republican chairman, Chuck Grassley, titled an oversight hearing into Smith's “abuse of authority.” Smith brought the two federal criminal cases against Donald Trump: one over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, and one over his handling of classified documents after his first term. Both cases were dismissed after Trump won the 2024 election. Grassley accused Smith of “rampant abuse of authority and political targeting” funded by taxpayers. Smith defended the investigations as based on evidence and Justice Department policy, not politics. He told senators he would not be silenced by “continued threats of prosecution,” and he condemned the firing and vilification of the agents and prosecutors who worked for him. Live coverage also reported him saying his investigation had shown, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Trump engaged in serious crimes. Here's the legal significance. A special counsel operates under Justice Department regulations designed to give some independence in politically sensitive investigations. When a former prosecutor faces open talk of prosecution for his own charging decisions, and his former staff are fired, the concern is less about Smith himself than about future prosecutors. Every prosecutor considering a case against a powerful person will now know that the charging decision itself can bring personal and professional consequences. Congress does have legitimate oversight power over the Justice Department. But oversight turning into retaliation is exactly what Justice Department independence norms are supposed to prevent. The hearing is another sign of how politicized federal prosecution has become.Former Trump prosecutor Jack Smith faces Senate hearing over abuse of authority accusations | Reuters · NBC News · CNNAnd finally, in my column for Bloomberg Tax this week, I take on one of the most common arguments against California's proposed wealth tax. Proposition 40 would impose a one-time 5% levy on the net worth of Californians who were billionaires at the start of this year. Opponents warn that a tax on the ultra-rich will eventually trickle down to ordinary households. My response is that ordinary households already pay a recurring tax on their largest store of wealth. It's called the property tax. Think about how it works: the government values an asset you own, applies a rate to that value, and bills you every year simply for continuing to own it. That's a tax on a stock of wealth, not on income. I ran some back-of-the-envelope numbers using Tax Foundation and Federal Reserve data. The national effective property tax rate on owner-occupied homes was about 0.91% in 2022. The median primary residence was worth about $323,000, and median housing equity was about $200,000. That works out to a property tax bill of roughly $2,900 a year, or close to 1.5% of the typical homeowner's actual equity, every year. And unlike Proposition 40, the property tax doesn't subtract your mortgage. It's charged on the full assessed value, so with a big mortgage, a nominal 1% rate can equal 5% or more of your real equity. The billionaire's wealth tax would be calculated on assets minus debts, which is more lenient on that point. My conclusion is that many homeowners would gladly trade their recurring 1.5% for a one-time 5%. So the real question isn't whether taxing wealth is acceptable in principle. It's why our appetite for it changes so much depending on what kind of wealth it is and who owns it. I'm not saying Proposition 40 is well designed. Valuing private company shares is much harder than valuing a house, and billionaires can move in a way houses can't. If the objection is really to the size and one-time structure, the better debate is whether a recurring, lower-rate tax, say 1% a year above a very high threshold, would be workable.

In this episode of the 47 Morning Update w Ben Ferguson, Ben examines the Southern California daycare fraud case, the Justice Department's broader enforcement efforts, and what these investigations reveal about alleged abuse of taxpayer-funded programs. He discusses recent actions involving pandemic loan fraud, health care fraud prosecutions, efforts to recover lost funds, and the administration's stated goal of making fraud enforcement a government-wide priority. A federal crackdown in Southern California has led to charges against 12 individuals accused of fraudulently collecting more than $10 million in taxpayer-funded child care subsidies. Federal prosecutors allege that licensed home daycare operators submitted false attendance records, claimed payments for services never provided, and collected funds intended to help low-income families access child care. The case highlights a broader push by the Trump administration and the Department of Justice to target fraud across multiple government programs, from child care subsidies to pandemic-era relief loans and health care reimbursements. Investigators say they used surveillance, travel records, bank data, and other evidence to test whether taxpayer-funded services were actually being delivered. Topics Covered: The Southern California home daycare fraud investigation Allegations involving more than $10 million in child care subsidies Surveillance and border-crossing records used by investigators Nationwide enforcement actions targeting pandemic loan fraud DOJ health care fraud prosecutions involving billions in alleged losses Trump administration efforts to expand federal fraud enforcement Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith tells the Senate Judiciary Committee his investigation proved 'beyond reasonable doubt' that President Donald Trump engaged in 'serious crimes,' but some Republicans on the committee accuse him of weaponizing the Justice Department when he sought records of their phone calls with the President after the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol Building; President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson meet with the CEOs of technology companies at the White House to discuss the future, and any government or voluntary limitations, of AI (Artificial Intelligence), while the President says he will officially rename it SI (Super Intelligence) by Executive Order; Trump Administration unveils an AI-powered website, America.gov, designed to be a one-stop-shop for dealing with the federal government and a replacement for the current tens of thousands of government websites; Trump Administration's ban on $1 billion worth of Canadian goods goes into effect, covering dairy products, alcoholic beverages and motor vehicles; Second annual Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Summit is held in Washington, DC; New British Prime Minister Andy Burnham speaks to his first Labour Party Conference about getting the government more involved in delivering vital services to the British people.

Pam Bondi's handling of the Epstein files became a major source of controversy after she publicly raised expectations that the Justice Department was about to deliver significant new transparency, only for the initial February 2025 release to consist largely of material that had already been publicly reported or leaked. Bondi then revealed that the FBI's New York field office had thousands of additional pages that had not initially been turned over to her and ordered the bureau to produce everything. The situation became even more politically damaging when the Justice Department and FBI issued a July 2025 memo saying their review had found no incriminating “client list,” no credible evidence that Epstein had blackmailed prominent people and no evidence sufficient to open investigations into uncharged third parties. That conclusion clashed sharply with the expectations Bondi herself had helped create, including her earlier statement that an Epstein “client list” was sitting on her desk for review.Critics in Congress, the media and even within the administration accused Bondi and the Justice Department of trying to close the book on Epstein rather than aggressively pursue the unanswered questions surrounding his network. The July memo explicitly said that “no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted,” a position that generated enough backlash that the issue continued through lawsuits, congressional scrutiny and eventually the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which forced a much larger release of records. Courts later noted the widespread controversy over the department's reversal on disclosure, and the House Oversight Committee eventually moved to subpoena Bondi over DOJ's handling of the files. Bondi and the department defended their work as an exhaustive review constrained by victim privacy, sealed records and the absence of evidence supporting new prosecutions, but the sequence of promises, limited releases, contradictory messaging and the attempt to declare the review essentially finished left her handling of the Epstein matter under sustained scrutiny.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the new curfews taking effect and the congressional hearing featuring former special counsel Jack Smith. Brett focuses on the growing scrutiny surrounding Smith and the Justice Department’s investigations into President Donald Trump, including the search of Mar-a-Lago. He argues that Smith and other federal officials should be held accountable for their actions and questions the motives behind the investigations targeting Trump Beth Troutman from Good Morning BT is also here for this episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Beth talk about AI, Flock cameras, privacy and the growing role of technology in everyday life. Beth shares her concerns about the surveillance capabilities of Flock cameras and the potential consequences of inaccurate license-plate data, while also discussing her bigger concerns about AI and its impact on human critical thinking, empathy and independence. The conversation also touches on how technology has changed privacy, from home security cameras and smart glasses to the loss of the carefree experiences people once enjoyed without everything being recorded or posted online. Beth also shares what she and the Good Morning BT team have coming up, including conversations with a cybersecurity expert and political analyst Scott Huffman.

The BBC story covered a Walmart patent for an internet-connected shopping trolley capable of tracking items, displaying information, and potentially simplifying checkout. It was an example of how major retailers were experimenting with smart-store technology, although a patent filing alone did not guarantee the system would ultimately be deployed in stores. Kurt Olsen, a prominent figure in efforts to challenge the 2020 election results, has resigned from the Justice Department. He had been working in the Southern District of Florida on a high-profile investigation targeting Obama- and Biden-era officials, a probe that has not yet resulted in charges.

Judge Timothy Kelly - a Trump appointee - has ruled that Trump violated the Constitutional rights of reporters from CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, when he revoked their press credentials in violation of their due process rights.

Judge Emmet Sullivan denied the Justice Department's request for a partial stay of his September 16 order requiring Todd Blanche, in his official capacity as acting attorney general, to begin reviewing and producing foreign-language materials that could fall under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Sullivan ruled that Blanche's motion could be denied on procedural grounds alone because the government failed to comply with a local rule requiring lawyers to confer with opposing counsel before filing a nondispositive motion. The court noted that the government filed the stay request late on September 18 and asked for an expedited ruling by September 21 without first notifying Katie Phang's attorneys. Sullivan rejected the government's suggestion that the consultation requirement might not technically apply and said the failure to follow the rule was sufficient reason to deny the motion.Sullivan went further, making clear that even if the procedural violation were ignored, he would still deny the government's request on the merits for the reasons laid out in his earlier preliminary-injunction ruling. At the same time, the judge temporarily paused the specific September 24 deadline requiring the government to begin the foreign-language review, giving Blanche an opportunity to seek a stay directly from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Once the appeals court rules on that forthcoming request, both sides must file a joint notice within three days recommending how the case should proceed. The result was therefore a loss for the government at the district-court level, but with a short temporary reprieve while it takes the dispute to the appeals court.to contat me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.dcd.291779.49.0.pdf

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) and Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) run a football-heavy show, and this week it's all about the optics.After Dan's flag-football coaching debut, which ended with a hard lesson about the forward-pass rule, they start with Josh Jacobs. A Wisconsin judge denied the victim's request to permanently seal the evidence in his case, including surveillance video, and left any release to local police. Jacobs is still on the Commissioner Exempt List. Mike and Dan get into why a player of his caliber doesn't end up there by accident, why the video may matter more than the plea, and what the NFL learned from Ray Rice.Next, Antonio Brown goes from a second-degree attempted murder charge (up to 30 years, with a 20-year mandatory minimum) to an expected no-contest plea to aggravated assault, with probation and adjudication withheld. Dan explains why AB's Stand Your Ground defense looked shaky, and how the victim's forgiveness helped produce "a deal he couldn't refuse."Dan checks in on his futures (the Bills are now –260 to win the AFC East) and makes the case for a new one: the Giants over 6.5 wins, a bet on John Harbaugh's track record.Then the PR block. Gable Steveson, a –2500 favorite, was knocked out in 12 seconds at UFC 331 after his opponent spent fight week bringing up a 2019 allegation. Steveson's follow-up statement may be one of the worst the show has covered, down to citing his own attorney's investigation as proof. Plus: Arch Manning's apology tour after he called an AI-doctored video of Steve Sarkisian and Holly Rowe "hilarious," and Sean Strickland's car-crash concussion post, which moved the UFC futures market (including Dan's Imavov ticket) before Strickland showed up training the next day.On the way out, Mike flags two things to watch: the Justice Department's criminal probe in the Eastern District of New York into the Kawhi Leonard endorsement deals, and the NFL memo barring ex-LSU hopefuls Zxavian Harris and Dae'Quan Wright from signing for the 2026 season. Finally, the Protect College Sports Act heads to a final Senate vote on Monday. The guys cover the "Lane Kiffin rule," a revenue-share cap that more than doubles, the lack of employee status or collective bargaining, and Dan's theory that the NCAA's eligibility chaos may have been the plan all along.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?

The Justice Department is planning to dispatch a widening network of poll monitors on Election Day in what it calls the “biggest DOJ election observer effort ‘in history”. Meanwhile, new records reviewed by CNN suggest that several DOJ monitors deployed during this year's primaries previously helped challenge Trump's 2020 election loss. We examine how state election officials are responding amid plans by the RNC to scrutinize voting machines. --- Guest: Gabe Cohen, CNN Correspondent Host: David Rind Producer: Paola Ortiz Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on the Stay Tuned with Preet podcast, Danny Meyer, renowned restaurateur and founder of Shake Shack and Union Square Hospitality Group, joins Preet to discuss his new book, What Could Possibly Go Right? The Essential Journey to Scale an Enduring Culture. Through personal stories and many metaphors, Meyer shares the most important lessons he's learned from opening, closing, and reopening restaurants across New York City, including why it's so important not to fear failure. Meyer also explains what drew him to hospitality in the first place and why fomenting the culture of his restaurants matters just as much, if not more, than the food being served. Finally, Meyer shares why he believes “no tax on tips” will actually widen the wage gap, and why the United States is unlikely to ever do away with tipping at restaurants. At the end of the episode, Preet answers listener questions about the Justice Department's efforts to revive its criminal case against former FBI Director Jim Comey. Plus, Preet's thoughts on civil disobedience. In the bonus for Insiders, Meyer shares his takes on competitiveness and what it's like to dine at his own restaurants.
