Jake and the Judge
-
- Judge, your analysis of last Friday’s Trump-Putin summit in Alaska and the Monday EU/NATO gathering at the White House?
- A federal appeals court in San Francisco granted the Trump administration an emergency stay, halting a lower-court order that preserved Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 60,000 immigrants from Honduras, Nicaragua and Nepal.
- The National TPS Alliance, which represents people with TPS in the U.S., as well as those from Honduras, Nicaragua and Nepal who challenged the decision to terminate TPS, argue the action was unlawful and at least partially motivated by racial bias.
- A third federal judge has denied a motion from the Justice Department to release grand jury materials connected to the Jeffrey Epstein case, calling them a "diversion."
- S. District Judge Richard M. Berman denied the request in a 14-page decision published Wednesday.
- While it's rare for the government to seek the unsealing of grand jury materials, Berman wrote that there were about 70 pages of Epstein grand jury materials – compared to 100,000 pages in possession of the government.
- Federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C., will no longer slap people with felony charges for possession of rifles or shotguns in the nation's capital, according to U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro.
- The change means federal prosecutors will not seek charges under the D.C. law that made it illegal to carry rifles or shotguns in the district, except in limited cases for permit holders.
- Under the new policy, the U.S. attorney's office will continue to bring charges when a person is accused of using a shotgun or rifle in a violent crime or has a criminal record that prohibits them from possessing a firearm. The new policy also covers large-capacity magazines, but it does not include handguns. (Fox News)

- Why Is Rep. Carlos Giménez shielding a Defense Dept contractor operating under Cuban military oversight?
- These revelations are sending shockwaves through Miami’s anti-Cuban regime establishment.
- Earlier this week, Roger Stone released an exclusive report that shocked Miami’s Cuban diaspora, exposing Florida Congressman Carlos Giménez’s deliberate silence regarding Crowley Maritime Corporation — a Florida-based Department of Defense contractor conducting cargo and freight operations at Cuba’s Mariel port under the direct supervision of the Cuban military.
- Crowley Maritime, a DoD contractor holding $2.3 billion in Defense Freight Transportation Services (DFTS) contracts and $343 million in Maritime Prepositioning Force (MPF) contracts, has operated in Cuba since 2001 under authorization from the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Its operations in Cuba, where the Castro regime military collaborates with
- China, Russia, and Iran, risk espionage, especially given Chinese intelligence facilities near Havana.
