Pam Bondi and the Department of Justice filed a motion claiming federal courts lack jurisdiction to enforce the Epstein Transparency Act, a federal law passed almost unanimously by Congress and signed by President Donald Trump. Representatives Thomas Massie and Ro Connor drafted the Epstein Transparency Act to compel the DOJ to release the Epstein files, but less than 1% have been released and the DOJ is a month past deadline. The motion argues federal judges cannot enforce federal laws, prompting backlash from supporters including podcaster Shawn Ryan who previously endorsed Trump and JD Vance during the 2024 election.
A federal judge in Minneapolis issued an order restricting ICE operations against peaceful protesters. ICE agents can no longer pepper spray or arrest peaceful protesters who are not actively impeding their actions. The judge's order aims to stop ICE from targeting demonstrators in Minneapolis.
Former Democratic Montana Senator John Tester endorsed an independent candidate for his Senate seat and stated the Democratic Party was the biggest roadblock to his candidacy. Tester called the Democratic Party absolute poison to his Senate campaigns in Montana. The DNC currently has only 20% of the cash on hand compared to the RNC, with even Democrats refusing to donate after years of ineffectiveness from the Democratic National Committee.
