I believe this is the first court filing to cite WH chief of staff Susie Wiles' admission to Vanity Fair about President Trump's "score settling." It's used in support of Abrego Garcia's vindictive prosecution claim: www.courtlistener.com/docket/70476...

At least 20 people who have received clemency from President Trump so far this year were also forgiven of financial penalties totaling tens of millions of dollars.
Some of these offenders owed money to real-life victims of fraud.

Trump’s pardons wipe out payments to defrauded victims
In addition to clearing prison sentences, the president’s clemency actions have erased millions in restitution payments.

It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

We already knew Bill Clinton and other Dems were in the files. But we said release everything and let the chips fall. Congress passed a law to release everything. But DOJ decided to violate that law by cherry picking certain things while covering for Trump and his cronies.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.
