## Withheld candidates

- Two new Truth Social posts: The source advanced from 35,990 to 35,992 posts. Trump's film-production statement was used only as primary evidence that he announced a legislative request and was independently contextualized by Reuters; the other post was personal praise for a senator and golfer and established no federal action.
- State Department plan for $4 million in European media grants: Reuters reported an August 21 congressional notification and prospective September finalization based principally on unnamed sources. The notification was outside the current window, no public primary document identified recipients or final terms, and a second independent outlet did not confirm the consequential details.
- Smithsonian Latino museum site designation: The Smithsonian Board of Regents designated an existing Smithsonian building for the congressionally authorized museum, but the decision was an institutional action that bypassed a new-site approval and did not itself implement a Trump-administration order, appropriation or policy. The administration's earlier budget opposition remains context rather than authorship of this action.
- Passenger-vehicle fuel-economy reduction: Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy again said lower standards would be announced soon, but no final passenger-vehicle rule was issued by cutoff. The December proposal and August 31 forecast do not make the reduced standard operative.
- Republican committees seek Supreme Court access to discounted political-ad rates: The filing was made by party campaign committees rather than the administration or a federal agency. It seeks emergency judicial relief over the FCC's lowest-unit-charge policy but does not independently establish a new Trump-administration action.
- Army secretary resignation and presidential-succession coverage: Personnel and campaign reporting did not independently establish a material policy action, appropriation, ruling or implementation stage within the archive threshold.
- Planned additional Iran bank sanction, G20 plans and food-processing order: No bank designation, final communique, signed food-processing order, published agency rule, funding action or other completed federal action appeared by cutoff. Announced intentions remain research leads.
- Previously unresolved anonymously sourced reports: No final agency action or independently corroborated primary record resolved the remaining CIA, Watson, Mar-a-Lago, FBI-applicant, LaGuardia, Pentagon or Venezuela-ownership leads by cutoff.

## Verification

Current front-door pages, canonical datasets, archive bridge, individual evidence packs, versioned aggregate packs, source ledgers, and checksums are generated deterministically. Earlier date-only base aggregates remain byte-frozen and separately addressable; every new same-day aggregate is version-keyed. Candidate publication requires the repository validator and GitHub Actions to pass, followed by acceptance from the publication authority named above.
