Attorney General Announces Settlement with Gun Retailer Following Unlawful Sales

**TRENTON, NJ** – Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin announced that Point Blank Guns and Ammo LLC has reached a court-ordered settlement following a civil lawsuit. The lawsuit was a result of the store selling gun-related products to undercover investigators without verifying if the buyers could legally possess a firearm. This settlement is in accordance with the legislative requirements from July 2022 as per N.J.S.A. 2C:58-35.

The complaint, filed in November last year by Attorney General Platkin and the Statewide Affirmative Firearms Enforcement Office (SAFE), detailed two instances involving Point Blank. In March, the store sold a handgun ammunition magazine, and two months later, a 1,000-round case of .223 caliber ammunition, both to first-time buyers without demanding identification or permits.

Attorney General Platkin emphasized the importance of adhering to these laws to prevent unlawful practices that could lead to mass shootings. SAFE Director Ravi Ramanathan highlighted the need for gun stores to confirm that buyers can lawfully possess firearms. Both recognize that Point Blank has agreed to amend its practices.

Attorney General Announces Charges for Tesla Property Attacks

**WASHINGTON, D.C.** – Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced charges against three individuals accused of destructive acts targeting Tesla properties using Molotov cocktails.

According to Bondi, the defendants will face legal action for setting Tesla cars and charging stations on fire. The Attorney General emphasized the Department of Justice’s zero tolerance for what she termed acts of domestic terrorism against Tesla.

In detail, one defendant was apprehended after deploying approximately eight Molotov cocktails at a Tesla dealership in Salem, Oregon, while armed with a suppressed AR-15 rifle. A second defendant faced arrest in Loveland, Colorado, after an attempt to ignite Teslas; materials for further incendiary devices were also found in their possession.

Lastly, a third defendant in Charleston, South Carolina was accused of defacing Tesla charging stations with offensive messages about President Trump before setting them ablaze. Each defendant now confronts serious charges, entailing sentences of five to 20 years in prison.

Attorney General Dismisses DEI-Related Lawsuits

**Washington, D.C.** – This week, Attorney General Pam Bondi ordered the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division to dismiss several lawsuits concerning the hiring of police officers and firefighters across various jurisdictions nationwide. These legal actions, initiated by the previous administration, contested the fairness of using standard aptitude tests for selecting public safety candidates.

Attorney General Bondi emphasized the need for hiring based on skill and dedication to public safety rather than diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) quotas. The prior administration had identified statistical disparities in test results but lacked evidence of intentional discrimination.

The previous administration aimed to push cities towards DEI-based hiring practices, urging them to allocate substantial funds to compensate applicants with lower test scores. President Trump and Attorney General Bondi are working to eliminate unlawful discrimination while promoting merit-based opportunities, particularly for public safety personnel.

The dismissal signifies a move to eradicate illegal DEI preferences in both public and private sectors. Prioritizing merit in hiring decisions for fire and police departments is seen as critical to ensuring public safety.

Attorney General and FBI Release Epstein Files

**Washington, D.C.** – Attorney General Pamela Bondi, with support from the FBI, has declassified and released files associated with Jeffrey Epstein, who was convicted as a sex offender. These documents pertain to his exploitation of over 250 underage girls in his homes located in New York, Florida, and other places.

Attorney General Bondi stated that the release aligns with former President Trump’s commitment to transparency. This first phase includes files that have been leaked previously but never formally released by the U.S. Government.

FBI Director Kash Patel expressed the Bureau’s commitment to integrity and accountability in a new era. He emphasized that efforts will be made to uncover and disclose any hidden or missing documents related to Epstein, to be assessed and shared with the public.

Attorney General Bondi requested comprehensive files on Epstein, receiving only 200 pages initially. It was later revealed that thousands more pages are involved. The FBI has been tasked to provide the remaining documents by 8:00 AM on February 28. The Department plans to release the remaining files after review to protect victims’ identities.
