DOJ advises U.S. Attorney Offices to prepare for potential criminal investigations as thousands plan to join nationwide 'No Kings' protests against Trump administration policies on Saturday.

The U.S. Justice Department said on Thursday that it has filed a lawsuit against New York state, challenging state policies that blocked immigration officials from arresting individuals at or near New York courthouses.

Including those two, the Justice Department has fired 17 people who worked on former Special Counsel Jack Smith's team prosecuting Trump since he returned to power in January.

The federal investigation comes after “information” that the state government used affirmative action in their employment practices.

Trump has said without evidence that the Justice Dept. misused prosecutorial resources against him during the Biden administration.

A Justice Department memo to US immigration judges noted that they can rapidly grant case dismissals, meaning that immigrants will not be able to respond in court.

That includes two monuments in California created by former President Joe Biden at the request of Native American tribes.

The U.S. Justice Department will restart enforcement of the decades-old law outlawing foreign bribery, with a scaled-down approach aimed at reducing burdens on U.S. companies, according to a memo and remarks by a top official.

Nearly a dozen of the government's most seasoned lawyers have been relegated to what they refer to as the Justice Dept. rubber room.
