The release of the redacted affidavit in FBI raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate ordered to be made public by noon on Friday

U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart has scheduled a deadline for the U.S. Justice Department to release the redacted version of the affidavit used in the Aug. 8 early morning raid of former U.S. President Donald Trump’s private home, Mar-a-Lago in Florida.

The move—ordering the Justice Department to unseal and make public the redacted version of the affidavit—comes after an in-person hearing last week regarding the unsealing of FBI records related to the unprecedented and highly controversial raid of former President Trump’s private beach club.

During the hearing, the Judge heard requests from the Department of Justice and an attorney representing media outlets about the possibility of unsealing the raid affidavit.

Trump and his team have maintained that the FBI raid was unjustified and that in the interest of transparency, federal investigators should release the affidavit.

However, the DOJ has already previously said it will not make the affidavit public because it concerns “highly sensitive information about witnesses.”

Now the Judge says the redacted version the DOJ has submitted to the court must be made public by noon on Friday.

US pressures Ukraine to accept a peace plan risking territory loss amid ongoing conflict with Russia.

The United States is pressuring Ukraine to accept a peace plan that would see the country surrender territory and military equipment as part of a negotiated settlement with Russia. The proposal has sparked concern within Kyiv over the potential loss of sovereignty and long-term security.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy is in Turkey discussing this plan, which may also involve cuts to Ukraine’s armed forces. His visit comes as Washington intensifies efforts under the Trump administration to secure an end to the conflict, despite fears the terms could undermine Ukraine’s national interests.

As Russian forces continue their aggressive campaign, holding roughly 19% of Ukrainian territory, Zelenskiy is attempting to revive peace talks before winter further complicates the frontline. The stakes remain high as the geopolitical landscape shifts.

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.

The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.

Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.

Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
