I wonder if they'd have had a better time arguing that the government installing software agents on one's phone violates the *Third* Amendment. :-)

New development: last Saturday, a federal judge in Minnesota ruled that a forcible entry by ICE was unlawful and violated the Fourth Amendment because ICE agents did not have a *judicial* warrant. Let's see where this leads.

Can ICE Enter a Home To Make an Arrest With Only an Administrative Warrant? The Associated Press reports: Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge's warrant, memo says WASHINGTON (AP)…

What's the story here? Because it kinda seems like he's not running because Republicans invented a fake daycare scandal. Which makes no sense.

The Government responds that the Attorney General’s ratification was proper because she could have β€œpersonally obtain[ed] a new indictment” on October 31 β€œusing [the] grace period” set forth in 18 U.S.C. Β§ 3288. ECF No. 137 at 29. That statute provides in part:
Whenever an indictment or information charging a felony is dismissed for any reason after the period prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations has expired, a new indictment may be returned in the appropriate jurisdiction within six calendar months of the date of the dismissal of the indictment or information.
Generally, β€œ[t]he return of an indictment tolls the statute of limitations on the charges contained in the indictment.” United States v.

Judge Currie explained in a footnote why there is no six-month grace period in Comey's case.

250925 Fixed No Bill

Oddly enough, the final page of the second indictment is different, and has a different Halligan signature: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Docket Annotation – #3 in United States v. Comey (E.D. Va., 1:25-cr-00272) – CourtListener.com Report of a Grand Jury's Failure to Concur in an Indictment by USA as to James B. Comey, Jr. (jlan) (Entered: 09/25/2025)

It may help (or may not? idk) to notice that the two indictments handed to the judge have the same signature page. Page 2 of the final indictment (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...) is a photocopy of p. 4 of the initial one (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)

Is this significant?

Also, has anyone else noticed that the signature page (p.2) of the final indictment (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...) is LITERALLY A PHOTOCOPY of the signature page (p.4) of the original indictment (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)?

Hi @annabower.bsky.social β€” did you see this? Today Halligan filed a notice that claims that the two-count indictment was signed off by the full grand jury, thus contradicting her testimony from yesterday unless I'm mistaken.

Also, has anybody pointed out yet that the signature page (p.2) of the true bill (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...) is a literal photocopy of the sig page (p.4) of the "count 1 only" doc (storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...)?
This is where Vaala said, "It has your signature on it."

Hey @kenwhite.bsky.social β€” did you see that today Halligan filed a notice to the court to state that the full GJ *did* vote on the two-count indictment, in apparent contradiction to her testimony yesterday? How's *that* gonna fly?
