BREAKING: DC Circuit upholds district court order blocking IRS from sharing tax return information with ICE. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Before: MILLETT, PILLARD and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge PILLARD.
PILLARD, Circuit Judge:
After the Watergate scandal exposed executive branch abuses of U.S. taxpayers' information to harass the Administration's enemies, Congress enacted a prohibition against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sharing tax return information with any other federal agency unless the requesting agency meets stringent conditions. In response to requests from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), in the summer of 2025, the IRS developed a specialized procedure for disclosing return information. The procedure failed to ensure that ICE's requests complied with statutory requirements. The IRS nonetheless began using the procedure to disclose tens of thousands of records.
Several groups sued. The IRS had turned over more than 47,000 records by the time the district court stayed the IRS from using the new procedure and preliminarily enjoined further disclosures without notice to the court. We affirm.

It’s the late 1800s. The American Industrial Revolution is in full swing. Many people were working 12 hour days, 7 days a week in demanding and dangerous jobs for very little pay. Outrage over these conditions led to a march in New York City in September of 1882.

Usually reporters get leaks FROM the White House -- but at Fox News, a reporter appears to have leaked TO the White House. That's according to @oliverdarcy.bsky.social's explanation of the sudden Maria Bartiromo erasure by the Murdochs
Status has learned that Bartiromo's termination stems from an incident, which has not previously been reported, that occurred in July. After Trump delivered his unhinged prime time speech in which he pushed more conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, this time making a number of allegations against China, I am told that Fox News issued guidance to senior employees instructing them to steer clear of giving credence to Trump's delusional claims. I'm told that the guidance was issued in writing. Indeed, the day after Trump's prime time address, Fox News conspicuously avoided covering the debunked claims the president had pushed. The lack of coverage raised eyebrows among media observers at the time. It also appears to have caught the attention of the White House. It's unclear whether Trump or someone at the White House inquired with Bartiromo about the lack of coverage. But ultimately Bartiromo spilled the secret, Status has learned, divulging to the White House that Trump's speech had received scant coverage on the channel because network bosses had ordered it so. I'm even told the text message in which Fox News brass offered their guidance was shared by Bartiromo with the White House. In doing sO. Bartiromo not only effectively betrayed her employer, but also disclosed confidential company information, violating the terms of her employment agreement.
