A flash flood warning is in effect until 6 a.m. for parts of South Central Texas , including the Hill Country and Southern Edwards Plateau.by MARIA TEDESCO | The National News DeskWASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 19: Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel appear during a news conference announcing the indictment of a former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding, charging him with murder and money laundering in connection to a drug trafficking organization at the Justice Department on November 19, 2025 in Washington, DC.
The Justice Department announced a fifteen-million-dollar reward for information leading to the arrest of Ryan James Wedding, the leader of a criminal drug organization who smuggled large quantities of cocaine through Colombia and Mexico for distribution in the United States and Canada. The National News Desk spoke with Former U.S. Attorney John P. Fishwick Jr., about comes next with the Epstein files. Former U.S. Attorney John P. Fishwick Jr. said the public will be "disappointed" in what the Department of Justice decides to release of the files. There's not going to be a huge unveiling of all the Epstein files." Fishwick told The National News Desk. The recent Epstein files saga all began with a discharge petition led by members of Congress. This eventually led to the bill swiftly moving through the House and the Senate and being signed into law by Trump. Despite the bill stating the files must be released by Trump within 30 days, Fishwick expects only some files to be released. I don't think that at the end of this 30-day period, we're going to get them all. I expect we'll get some of them. But I think a lot of it will not be produced," Fishwick said. Attorney General Pam Bondi told reporters on Wednesday she would comply with the law when it comes to the release. The reason some documents may be withheld is that the bill Trump signed into law allows the DOJ to hold on to any information that would get in the way of any investigations or prosecutions. But I do think the ongoing investigations will be something that will put a hold on these document release. I think that's unfortunate. I think the public's ready to see all this information," Fishwick said.The potential release of the files comes through Congress. But why didn't the DOJ take action in the first place? Fishwick said that is because the DOJ was at a "dead end" with the files when it comes to a criminal investigation."They did not see any criminal conduct that was worth investigating and moving forward. They basically said they were at a dead end. But the House Oversight Committee has aggressively kind of pursued this. I hope they will continue to pursue it and release it," Fishwick said.Federal agencies, including the FBI, Homeland Security, and ICE, conducted a raid on Saturday targeting Tren de Aragua members, resulting in the detention of aThe medical autopsy for Selena Quintanilla was revelaed 30 years after her death according to magazine US Weekly.After an 18-year-old girl was found dead, wrapped in a blanket and stuffed under a bed aboard a Carnival Cruise Line ship earlier this month, her teenage stepbrSAN ANTONIO - A woman who was rescued by police in a major SWAT raid after hiving been kidnapped has now been arrested.SAN ANTONIO - A woman has been hospitalized after being shot in an apparent drive-by shooting while inside her home.Around 12:20 p.m, police were called to the
