Our manager (who is my level but was on the project first) is extremely controlling about this because he has no life at all. He forces us to act as his family and tells me specifically all about his dating problems. I want to die.

Not sure your level, but say something in advance next time. On all my projects I make sure to have an understanding with the senior manager that I need at least 1 week a month home.

M1, complain. You're at his level, so if anyone has a leg to stand on, it's you.

Oh I fully fully plan on doing so once I prove myself a little more.

Senior Manager on my current project does this. He sucks. He's the worst Senior Manager I've ever worked for.

What’re the various agencies/components’ return to office dates (if announced)? And what’re the remote work policies after that date? I hear DOJ said their individual components will decide when exactly to return between mid-March and early May and some are offering a lot of remote flexibility even after then. Curious to hear more details though, both for specific DOJ components and other agencies!
