Washington Post's new headline is still wrong.
1. The release was not "huge."
2. DOJ missed the deadline to release all the files.

Forget about the nonsense stories like the Kennedy Center being renamed or whatever Bari Weiss is doing
At least 3,800 immigrant children were detained in 2025. Now, kids are not supposed to be kept more than 20 days
At least 1,300 of them have been held longer than 20 days-some for over 4 months

Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
