Today's headlines: The DOJ has been granted an appeal saying that they cannot continue to review the 100 classified documents that they seized in Mar-a-Lago; Raymond Dearie has separately ordered Trump lawyers to back up Trump’s claims on record that the FBI lied about seized documents. The writer that stated that Trump raped her, E. Jean Carroll, plans to use a new law to prove it. Ginni Thomas, Clarence Thomas’s wife, has come to an agreement with the January 6th House committee to voluntarily testify in the coming weeks. The House has passed a bill to prevent efforts to subvert presidential election results. Anti-Government protests have exploded this week across dozens of cities in Iran, all initially sparked by the death of a woman named Mahsa Amini, a 22 year old who died in police custody. Finally for this week, a strict ban on most abortions in Indiana has been struck down after being in effect for just a week.
