Comment  BY December 22nd. The ESA (Endangered Species Act), is under threat. The current administration wants to repeal the blanket rule, which automatically gives the same protections to threatened species that endangered species receive, such as prohibiting the harming, killing, or trading of those species. Without the blanket rule, each species wanted or needed to be added to the ESA needs to be added  individually, which takes time, time threatened species might not have.

    UnJustified | Epstein Day Delayed

    The Department of Justice has announced that it will not be releasing all of the Epstein files as required by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but will instead release them on a rolling basis. Jack Smith testified for 8 hours behind closed doors in front of the House Judiciary Committee, saying that he amassed powerful evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump violated the law. Co-Deputy Director Dan Bongino says he will leave his position at the FBI next month. And the Department of Justice asks for more time to return Daniel Richman’s materials to him.
