Trump’s Epstein Files Blockade Crumbling as More Republicans Back Release
In a recent decision, Cummings has ordered the Department of Justice to identify, within one week, all immigrants arrested by federal agents who lack deportation orders or criminal records. These individuals, numbering among the 615 arrested, would then be released on a $1,500 bond, with the government prohibited from pursuing voluntary removal documents during this period. The ruling comes amidst concerns over the detainees’ processing and potential security risks. Cummings allowed the government time to vet the detainees, ordering a status report to be submitted by the end of November, effectively serving as a rebuke of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration efforts in the Chicago area.
