The chief judge in DC federal court just ordered the Trump administration to "facilitate" the return back to the USA for any of the willing 137 Venezuelans it improperly sent to the Salvadoran gulag last year. The feds have *a month* to get this going.

"Per FBI policy, if an evidence item remains undisposed, the investigative case file must remain open." Wait, that sounds recursive. Does that mean the FBI destroys all evidence to close a case file? Huh?
