Court Order Halts DHS's Bulk Voter Citizenship Checks via SAVE

A federal judge ordered DHS to roll back upgrades to the SAVE system that turned it into a bulk voter citizenship checker, leading to the disabling of bulk upload and partial SSN searches. Before the halt, SAVE had been used to screen more than 67 million registered voters, flagging thousands as noncitizens—many later found to be citizens. DHS has not clearly confirmed the shutdown of the expanded features, prompting concerns about evading the injunction.

OK AG urges Big 12 to suspend Brendan Sorsby despite court order

Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond urged the Big 12 to suspend Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby even though a court order has restored his eligibility after the NCAA deemed him permanently ineligible for extensive wagering; he argues the order applies to the NCAA, not the conference, and calls for sanctions if Texas Tech won’t act. Supporters say the court order stands unless reversed, so Sorsby remains eligible to play, while critics frame the move as political theatrics tied to broader debates over sports governance and antitrust considerations.

ICE re-detains Egyptian family days after release, bound for Egypt

An Egyptian family of six—Hayam El Gamal and her five children—was taken back into ICE custody days after their release from the Dilley, Texas detention facility. They were reportedly aboard a private jet in Denver headed for Egypt due to a court-order violation, according to their attorney. The family had spent about 10 months detained at Dilley, the longest such period for a family during Donald Trump’s second term, and their case has drawn national attention. El Gamal’s husband, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, was arrested in June 2025 in connection with Molotov cocktails used at a Gaza-hostage demonstration and faces federal hate-crime charges.
