As a matter of law, executors have a fiduciary duty to not waste estate funds, so they must have found her credible enough to pay.

All over the country, AI donors are paying off politicians to sell out our communities to data center development. Florida’s voters see it for the scam it is. See what really happens when a data center comes to your backyard.

Postpartum care saves lives, and after years of working to get this done, I was proud to sign legislation to expand postpartum coverage from 60 days to a full year. Thanks to our work, more than 16,000 moms will have access to the healthcare they need when they need it this year.
Graphic that reads: expanded postpartum coverage will help over 16,000 Wisconsin women this year.

NEWS: Federal judge in Georgia quashes DOJ grand jury subpoena seeking information about election workers who volunteered or worked during the 2020 election in Fulton County. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
IV.
CONCLUSION
The subpoena power of the Grand Jury is broad, but it is not absolute. If it
were, the Supreme Court could simply say so, which it has not. Given the low need
for the subpoenaed information and the highly burdensome nature of the disclosure
of the same, the Subpoena is unreasonable and must be quashed pursuant to Federal
Rule of Criminal Procedure 17(a)(2).
Based on the foregoing, Fulton County's Motion to Quash Grandy Jury
Subpoena [Doc. 1] is GRANTED and the United States of America's Cross-Motion
27
Case 1:26-cv-02777-WMR
Document 37 Filed 07/07/26
Page 28 of 28
to Enforce Grand Jury Subpoena [Doc. 10] is DENIED. Accordingly, the Subpoena
(Subpoena No. 2026R00350-01) [Doc. 1-1] is QUASHED and Fulton County is
under no obligation to comply. Fulton County's request [Doc. 34] for access to the
materials included in United States' Motion for In Camera Review [Doc. 32] is
TERMINATED AS MOOT. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED TO
TERMINATE this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 7th day of July, 2026.

As I've said, any new laws must be made "self-executing" to the extent possible, not requiring action by Congress or the courts. Also like @asharangappa.bsky.social's idea for a 4th branch of government, to house the agencies and functions (like DOJ) that should be immune from executive meddling.
