Federal Court Orders Are Why Biden Didn’t Release Epstein Files

The reason that Joe Biden did not make the Epstein files public while he was president is straightforward; Federal judges sealed them to protect victims and because the law requires it. Until those judges lift the seals, no president can release those documents no matter who is named in them.

82 Year Old Legal Permanent U.S. Resident Taken By ICE At Green Card Appointment - Matt Mikalatos Substack

When Luis Leon arrived at his green card appointment, he was handcuffed by ICE and taken away.  His family couldn't find him for a full month.  The family called local prisons, hospitals, and even morgues but couldn’t find anyone who knew where Luis was.

Luis Leon came to the US 38 years ago. He had been tortured in his native Chile by the administration of the dictator Augusto Pinochet. The US gave him political asylum and he came legally to the United States in 1987.

In June he lost his wallet, which had his green card in it. Luis and his wife made an appointment to get it replaced, but when they arrived for the appointment, Luis was handcuffed by ICE and taken away.

His family couldn’t find him for a full month.  The family called local prisons, hospitals, and even morgues but couldn’t find anyone who knew where Luis was.

A relative in Chile called the family recently to let them know that 82-year-old Luis was now in a hospital in Guatemala; apparently deported to that country by the US government, though ICE still won’t even confirm that Luis showed up for his green card replacement appointment, let alone that they had him in custody and deported him.
