"Fraud on the Court": Even as DOJ Drops $1.8B Settlement Fund, Judge Reopens Case over Collusion
After widespread bipartisan outcry, the Justice Department says it is permanently abandoning plans for a $1.776 billion "anti-weaponization" fund. Widely branded as a "slush fund," it was expected to reward President Donald Trump's supporters, including those who attacked the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The fund was announced in May as part of a settlement in Trump's personal lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax data. That case was recently reopened, after dozens of former federal judges filed a motion alleging that Trump's actions were "collusive." As Nancy Gertner, one of the judges who joined the motion, explains, "What happened in this case was, essentially, Trump was suing himself. There was no question that Trump was on both sides of the 'v.'" Gertner and her fellow judges are represented by attorney Matt Platkin, who says, "It is illegal for the president to ask for any IRS audit to be opened or closed. That is a federal crime."

Meet Bajun Mavalwalla, Veteran Convicted for ICE Protest in Unprecedented Use of Conspiracy Charges
A federal jury last week convicted three people on felony conspiracy charges over their involvement in an anti-ICE protest in Spokane, Washington, last June. The "Spokane Three" are awaiting sentencing and face up to six years in prison for conspiracy to impede or injure ICE officers. They had attempted to block the transfer of a group of detained immigrants by sitting in front of a bus. Six of the nine protesters originally charged took plea deals, but the Spokane Three decided to fight the charges.

"If I had taken a plea deal, it would have essentially been me lying and saying that I did something that I didn't do. I didn't assault anybody," says Bajun Mavalwalla, a U.S. military veteran and one of the Spokane Three.

"What we have here is a really large reach of the conspiracy statute," adds journalist and author Aaron Glantz, highlighting that no officers were hurt in the June protest. "What happened was a relatively minor demonstration."

Two Cuddly New VIPs Land in D.C. Amid Controversy Over ‘Panda Factories'
Smithsonian Zoo/Getty Images Washington welcomed two new VIPs—giant pandas Qing Bao and Bao Li— to the National Zoo Tuesday under the shadow of fresh allegations that China has been exploiting the panda-lending program for its own gain.

The bears arrived from China aboard special FedEx "Panda Express" plane, jetting 8,000 miles to become the newest stars in the zoo's 52-year panda program.

"It's been a long year without pandas," Laurie Thompson, a veteran panda keeper at the zoo who was part of a team that traveled with the bears, told The Washington Post. "We're excited to see the new guys, and we'll fall in love with them just like before."
