An attorney with a license to protect, a byline, and a working client list filed the first lawsuit anyone has ever brought to enforce the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Against the Justice Department. Alone. Judge Emmet Sullivan sided with her. Ordered the department to unredact key documents and publish a redaction log, and then declined to pause his own order so the government could appeal. #Epstein #Journalism #PressFreedom #Accountability #Law #Courts #News #USPolitics #FOIA 1/2

Prediction What #Trump will try to do:

Declare #National #Emergency
Limit accessible voting tools
Create a narrative of fraud (to contest unfavorable results in advance)

Even if the measures are blocked, litigations will last months. Even if the #Courts block Trump orders, a phase of chaos and controversy remain. Some Trump order will be temporarily in effect, awaiting legal courses and appeals. Trump will use the 'emergency' to contest or not recognize election results.
