Just me, desperately trying to keep a lid on the cynical panic I've been in since the After Days began (circa 2016). Name's Emily. Nice to meet you

Now we learn from Reps of both parties who saw the unredacted Epstein files today that Trump, Bondi, & Blanche are covering up the absolute worst things in the Epstein files to protect the wealthy, powerful and politically connected. DOJ is being run by criminal co-conspirators.

Bannon knows too much about Trump and Epstein, so Blanche is taking very good care of him to keep him quiet just like with Maxwell. Blanche is the lynchpin- he has assumed full authority given to him by Trump to protect the worst of the worst.

Ghislaine Maxwell got into jail for engaging in pedophilia and sex trafficking.

Ghislaine Maxwell hopes to get out of jail by engaging in extortion.

I'm beginning to get the impression that Ghislaine Maxwell enjoys criming.

Judge blocks enforcement of Californiaโ€™s law banning masks for ICE agents But the judge also turned down the federal governmentโ€™s request to block another California law aimed at abuses in immigration enforcement.

JUST IN: Judge Christina Snyder (Clinton/CACD) blocks enforcement of CA law banning federal immigration agents from wearing masks, but will allow enforcement of another CA law requiring law enforcement to display name or badge numbers. w/ @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

Dear Ms. Wolfe,
Petitioner-Appellee Rรผmeysa ร–ztรผrk submits this Rule 28(j) letter to advise the Court that on January 29, 2026, the immigration court held that the Department of Homeland Security had not met its burden of proving removability, and the immigration court thereby terminated removal proceedings against Ms. ร–ztรผrk.' This development underscores the dangers of the government's interpretation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Under the government's view, it could punitively detain any noncitizen in retaliation for her speech for many months, so long as it simultaneously institutes removal proceedingsโ€”no matter how unmeritoriousโ€”all without any federal court review of the lawfulness of detention at any time.
To be clear, the termination of Ms. ร–ztรผrk's removal proceedings does not moot her habeas case. (By contrast, as Ms. ร–ztรผrk has argued, this appeal is moot.
Br. 18-20.) Without habeas jurisdiction and the bail order that is currently in place, any government appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals would again subject Ms. ร–ztรผrk to re-detention. See 8 C.F.R. ยง 1003.6(a). For that reason, she continues to suffer the threat of continuing "now-or-never" First and Fifth Amendment harms.
Br. in Opp. 55-57.

Congressional Access to Alien Detention Facilities - Ratification of Access Policy and Use of Appropriations for Enforcement
On January 8, 2026, I issued a new policy directing that requests by Members of Congress to visit an ICE facility be submitted at least seven days in advance of the visit.' On February 2, 2026, in Neguse v. ICE, a judge in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia temporarily enjoined DHS from enforcing that policy or otherwise requiring any plaintiff to provide advance notice before conducting oversight visits for a period of 14 days.?
The court concluded that DHS's policy remains inconsistent with Section 527(b) of the Department's appropriation. It is odd that the court issued this decision given the appropriation containing Section 527(b) lapsed on January 31, 2026. As a result of the lapse, Section 527 is not currently in effect. Therefore, as of this date, I am issuing this new policy that is identical in substance to the January 8 access policy. The General Counsel will provide further guidance regarding the effective date of this policy in light of the court's order.
' This updated policy-issued as a result of the case against ICE-was directed to ICE. Neither CBP nor its policy has been involved in the case to date. In light of today's decision, however, I am also issuing that policy as to CBP.

BREAKING: On February 2, Sec. Noem issued a memo asserting the lapse in appropriations for DHS meant there is no Sec. 527 โ€” the provision protecting congressional oversight visits to immigration detention facilities โ€” and she was issuing a new (third) policy requiring seven-day notice for visits.
