Proud to announce that my law firm was publicly recognized in the 2026 (16th edition) of Best Law Firms®.

Trump openly hosting lavish party w/excess food & drink while tens of millions of Americans, especially children, face loss of SNAP food is exactly what F. Scott Fitzgerald decried against & reflects Trump's actual views on his true American kingdom. share.google/Ppxoa03vOoF8...

This is what we're fighting against our country becoming nytimes.com/interactive/...

Although the fed govt is currently shutdown, our legal efforts to support fired employees still continues. They stood up against this Administration or were even fired for no meaningful reason. We could not provide pro bono legal representation to protect their interests were it not for you!

I support the effort by my client @milestaylor.bsky.social. “Defy Trump, TOGETHER. Sign the declaration at defiance.org. Unless you want a dictator — in which case, carry on.”

I know the feeling. Doesn't stop us as a small law firm from fighting for govt accountability and protecting federal employees, regardless of the political regime in power. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Absolutely unacceptable FBI/DOJ conduct. But has nothing to do w/Biden Admin or partisan politics. Common practice for years & we pushed back all the time. If anyone thinks Trump's first term FBI/DOJ didn't act similarly, I have a bridge to sell you. www.foxnews.com/politics/hou...

That's absurd. They're clearly being narrow minded in looking for attorneys because there are tons of us who would not hesitate to continue the fight.

If you are a service member or civil servant ordered to perform an operation in spite of concerns you raised about their legality, you have lawful options to blow the whistle. They do not involve leaking to the press. Consult with qualified counsel. You can honor your Oath without breaking the law.

My firm has been retained to represent former FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell and will properly respond to any further Executive or Legislative activities that may occur. Ms. Criswell's formal statement is below:

NEW EPISODE! No Kings, Epstein, and Ukraine/Russia Dive into the news of the week with our latest ep "Just Ask The Press - Trump Sh*ts On America" @briankarem.bsky.social @markzaidesq.bsky.social @bennettjohnt.bsky.social @mswmedia.com www.justaskthequestion.com/post/just-as...

Gosh, if only he had any connections to release all the files

"The reality is this is incredibly common among senior officials. They never believe − in good faith − that they have created a classified document," Zaid told USA TODAY. "They invariably believe they worked around it." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

The Administration’s senseless, malicious rampage against federal prosecutors for simply upholding their constitutional oath is destroying the Justice Department and torpedoing the careers of good men and women who have devoted their lives to protecting our country. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/u...

Mark Zaid, a national security lawyer ... called the indictment of Bolton "far, far weaker (and more customary of conduct by senior govt officials) than allegations against President Trump in stealing & storing marked classified documents at Mar-a-Lago." www.yahoo.com/news/article...

JUST IN: Judge Mehta threatens contempt and bar sanctions for attorney Carolyn Stewart — who has repped numerous Jan. 6 defendants and pardon recipients — over filing a motion with “fabricated” citations to local rules and refusing to correct it.

Look for me at the top of the 11 pm hour EDT tonight on @cnn.com to discuss Bolton's indictment with @lauracoates.com

Everyone can read Bolton's indictment & judge as they want, but this is far, far weaker (and more customary of conduct by senior govt officials) than allegations against President Trump in stealing & storing marked classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.

I've handled countless classified prepublication & Espionage Act cases. Bolton indictment, which is very similar to Gen Petraeus case (2 years probation, $100k fine), should raise concerns for every senior govt official who writes a book. Because this is generally how it is done.

According to two people who are violating all sorts of norms & policies and possibly laws. The Trump Administration cares less about what final result will be in this or other cases. It's about the public show & making his political adversaries suffer.

As one who has litigated FOIA cases for over 30 years, this decision is consistent with applicable law and policy. As the Court notes, "record evidence establishes that any privacy interest of Musk’s is outweighed by the substantial public interests in disclosure."

If you didn't realize this earlier, this latest action by the Administration amply demonstrates it does not have the back of federal workers. www.govexec.com/pay-benefits...

For a second time Federal Judge today ORDERED #JamesOKeefe to reveal the name of his undercover operative as part of our lawsuit against him (and her). He has seven days to comply with an explicit Court order.

Initial victory for #RuleOfLaw. Even more significant that it was issued by Trump appointed Judge.

This guy should sue. And this police state action needs to stop. Totally unAmerican.

Dive into the drama: Comey's indictment, Trump's UN antics, Kimmel's return & Mar-a-Lago chaos! @briankarem.bsky.social hosts @markzaidesq.bsky.social & Tom Arnold for unfiltered insights. Must-listen! @mswmedia.com www.justaskthequestion.com/post/just-as...

I agree

We handle most of our cases against this Administration on a pro bono (free) basis. Federal employees shouldn't have to reach into their own pockets to defend against unlawful retaliation when they did nothing wrong. We can do so bc of all of you! www.gofundme.com/f/challenge-...

“This seems to be far more directed at ensuring loyalty to DOD [the Department of Defense] and the Trump administration leadership rather than countering any foreign espionage,” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

FBI Director Kash Patel corrects the false story right wing media and President Trump are erroneously spreading www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

I'll be on @cnn.com tonight with @lauracoates.com at the top of the 11 pm EDT hour to discuss the criminal indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.

Back in March, former Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco and I "sat" next to each other in Trump White House Victim Memorandum class. How pathetic and embarrassing to see a sitting US President continue to personally attack a private citizen. People still think this isn't authoritarian?

Trump Administration is seeking to impose $50,000 bond on us in @briankarem.bsky.social's FOIA lawsuit bc we sought expedited processing for "unclassified" documents seized by FBI at Mar-a-Lago. What is USG scared of in those records? Perhaps that they are actually classified & Trump broke the law?

I previously rep'd Daily Caller in several #FOIA matters. In fact, we litigated case involving Hillary Clinton related info. Opinion piece or not, this is disgraceful that they published - by choice - such an article. They are just as guilty now. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/b...

“But no one should be surprised that the Trump Administration is pursuing political vengeance against his perceived enemies. They telegraphed their intentions from the outset, and it is time for America to wake up,” Zaid said Friday. www.huffpost.com/entry/its-ti...

I will continue to fight for #RuleOfLaw & to protect our democracy. I stand with James Comey.

Whistleblower attorney @markzaidesq.bsky.social's back in THE BACK ROOM discussing Kimmel, free speech, CDC Director Susan Monarez's firing, Trump and the weaponization of the DOJ, and the future of democracy. Don't miss this important and compelling conversation podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

For 4th straight court filing, #OKeefe failed to file response. He's filed 2 motions to dismiss & failed to fully defend. He completely failed to oppose our motion for identity of his undercover operative & Court ordered disclosure. He refused but failed to defend. What gives?

Explosive discussion this week! Join @briankarem.bsky.social , national security expert @markzaidesq.bsky.social & comedian Tom Arnold as they unpack Kirk’s Funeral, Kimmel’s Muzzle, Epstein’s Ghost, and much more! @mswmedia.com Listen now: www.justaskthequestion.com/post/just-as...

Our latest federal lawsuit to hold this Administration accountable to #RuleOfLaw. It is not only unlawful to release privacy protected info of federal employees, it is truly unprofessional & downright sleazy. Nothing more than vindictive smear campaigns. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/18/b...

Looking forward to appearing tonight at approximately 11:15 pm EDT on @cnn.com with @lauracoates.com to discuss FBI Director Kash Patel's Senate testimony today and our recent lawsuit against him for three former senior officials he fired.

Even amazing lawyers can't change the fact that deceased individuals (or their estates) cannot bring defamation lawsuits.

New social media DoD policy severely restricting First Amendment rights beyond seen before & obviously intended to stifle dissent against Administration. Of course, DoD political leadership would be in violation if actually applied to them. Leadership should come from the top.

Russia on the brink with NATO, Epstein's lingering shadow, and the fallout from Charlie Kirk's death! Join @briankarem.bsky.social @markzaidesq.bsky.social and @halsparks.com on our latest episode. Listen now: @mswmedia.com www.justaskthequestion.com/post/just-as...

This online Fox News reporter has history of reporting sources who are 100% wrong. I had to threaten libel lawsuit recently to have them correct the record. She didn't have any professionalism in responding to me though they changed story thereby admitting their error. bsky.app/profile/mark...
