## Withheld candidates

- Trump and Michael Cohen posts about prior criminal cases: Trump's claim that Cohen fully recanted and the linked Cohen essay establish what they published, not a court filing, dismissal, verified recantation or administration action. The personal-litigation commentary remains in the raw feed.
- Truth Social jobs, inflation and Iran rhetoric: The posts repeated economic claims and attacked critics without an implementing instrument or independently verified new policy. The independently sourced employment measurement and Iran record already preserve the relevant developments.
- Announced Witkoff and Kushner Ukraine peace mission: Trump identified envoys and an unspecified new idea but disclosed no proposal terms or completed travel, agreement, ceasefire or policy commitment by cutoff. It remains an announced diplomatic lead.
- Triumphal Arch opponents' renewed request for relief: The filing sought to block site work but produced no injunction or merits ruling by cutoff. The existing arch record already documents the announced excavation timetable, promised notice and unresolved litigation.
- Trump super-PAC midterm spending plan: The prospective use of private campaign money is campaign activity rather than a federal-administration action, expenditure or policy.
- Reported U.S.-China AI-safety talks: The mid-September dialogue remained prospective, with participants, location and agenda not final. No joint statement, signed framework or implemented safeguard existed by cutoff.
- COSCO denial of earlier intelligence allegations: The denial is relevant but did not independently resolve the consequential allegations, which still rest chiefly on unnamed administration sources. No public intelligence finding or second independent confirmation was located.
- Immigration-judge continuance training: Reporting described consequential internal direction, but no public directive or training record and no second strong independent confirmation were located by cutoff. The item remains a research lead.
- Ongoing disputes, prospective claims and duplicate coverage: Repeated Iran, Venezuela, Smithsonian and personnel coverage added no independently verified lifecycle change after the boundary. Threats or plans without an instrument were withheld unless they materially changed an existing record.
- External archive discovery leads: Unit-specific external measurements remain separate discovery inputs and contribute zero canonical entries by default. No upstream item advanced without original-source inspection and full Record review.

## Corrections

- **2026-09-04 6:00 PM EDT** — Restored three September 4 developments published immediately before the prior cutoff: the EPA-Army Corps supplemental WOTUS proposal, Northern Command's reported border-drone laser results and CDC's 3,134-case measles surveillance total. Each retains its actual date and precise evidence status; none is presented as a final water rule, independently verified cartel attribution or policy-specific causal finding.
- **2026-09-04 6:00 PM EDT** — Corrected two contaminated historical imports while preserving their stable IDs: LEG-003530 now carries the actual February 26, 2025 date and direct public-health sources for the first Texas measles death, and LEG-003956 now carries the April 8, 2025 ICE-custody death date and relevant ICE and independent reporting instead of an unrelated CDC measles link. Both entries now separate sourced facts, significance, competing explanations, Maybe and Therefore.

## 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.
