- New Mexico sued the Todd Blanche-led Department of Justice on Wednesday, alleging it has withheld unredacted files related to Zorro Ranch.
- The lawsuit claims the refusal violates the Administrative Procedure Act and the state’s sovereign authority, and asks a court to grant access to the materials.
- The state says federal prosecutors told it to pause the investigation in 2019, while the inquiry was reopened in February 2026 and has continued to face resistance.
- The Justice Department says victim privacy and existing protective orders bar blanket disclosure of identifying information, but it remains available to assist within the law.
Their delay is actively hurting our criminal investigation and delaying justice Epstein survivors deserve.— Raúl Torrez, New Mexico Attorney General, in a statement about the Zorro Ranch investigation (Epstein case).

- Tass, citing court information, reported that the Supreme Court had received a challenge to Yabloko’s election registration, allegedly filed by Alexey Zhuravlyov of Rodina.
- The Central Election Commission unexpectedly approved Yabloko in late July for the parliamentary vote planned for September 18–20, with the party standing as the only political force openly opposing Russia’s war against Ukraine.
- Party leader Nikolai Rybakov initially said Yabloko had not received the case, accused Zhuravlyov of making defamatory statements and announced legal action by the party.
- Yabloko rejected appeals from prominent opposition figures in exile and said their backing could, under current conditions, result in the party being barred from the election.
We will continue to run a fair and honest election campaign — for a ceasefire agreement, diplomacy, the achievement of peace, for freedom, for human rights and a life without fear.— Nikolai Rybakow, chairman of the opposition party Jabloko, wrote this on Telegram, distancing the party from calls by exiled opposition while emphasizing a fair campaign.

- Capital One said in a court filing submitted over the weekend that the accounts closed in 2021 showed activity with characteristics of possible money laundering.
- One of Trump’s financial holding companies filed the lawsuit shortly after his second inauguration; Trump alleges political motives connected to Jan. 6, while Capital One seeks dismissal.
- Before the closure, Trump held more than 300 Capital One accounts for various businesses, including a golf course and a winery, and had banked there for more than a decade.
- The bank said its anti-money-laundering team analyzed the activity for months and gave the plaintiffs several months, along with extensions, to find new banking services, which they did.

- The proposed FIFA Forward Enterprise was intended to manage the commercial and operational sides of competitions, including the men's and women's World Cups, with 20% to be sold to private investors.
- UEFA said its member nations would boycott FIFA events, while CONCACAF rejected the plan, the AFC called for an urgent governance review and CONMEBOL sought additional information.
- The plans led to the resignation of senior adviser Carlos Cordeiro, while FIFA chief operating officer Kevin Lamour portrayed the initiative as being driven by one person.
- Infantino said he intended to reunite the parties involved in the coming days and weeks, while the AFC welcomed the withdrawal and called for consultation and dialogue with football bodies.
This was an outrageous suggestion. The idea that it could even be brought forward shows that, in my view, (Infantino) is the wrong man to lead the organisation.— Andy Burnham, UK Prime Minister, said on Friday in response to FIFA's private-investment proposal for the World Cup.

- Op-Fortitude and Simon Afram say they spent more than $45 million, while the lawsuit suggests production took about seven years.
- According to the complaint, Op-Fortitude gave Netflix an unencrypted digital copy on June 16, and a Netflix executive reported several office drives stolen nine days later.
- The plaintiffs estimate the film’s potential break-even point at $112.5 million and seek at least $105 million, plus interest and other damages.
- Netflix disputes bearing the risk of loss for a film delivered without industry-standard safeguards and says it has so far seen no evidence that the film leaked.
We have declined to share anything about our ongoing investigation with the law firm representing Simon Afram, given their hostile attempts to extort money from Netflix over this situation — including immediately demanding $165 million for the film rather than work with us in good faith.— Netflix spokesperson, statement to Rolling Stone about the Fortitude lawsuit

- President Donald Trump attacked Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) on Friday morning because Cornyn opposes Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general over the fund.
- Cornyn lost the Texas Republican primary to Trump-backed Ken Paxton, and Trump threatened on July 30 to withdraw Blanche’s nomination until Cornyn and Thom Tillis leave office.
- An IRS settlement granted Trump and his family immunity from tax audits and created the fund, which could pay Americans deemed to have been unfairly targeted by the government.
- Tillis said later Friday morning on X that he and Cornyn were working with Blanche to end the fund, but his confirmation had stalled because a personal presidential adviser would not amend the settlement.
