@ every law student

Just referred someone to a former DOJ opposing counsel who abandoned ship after Trump took office, so for those of you still in DOJ, if you do that your former opponents will remember it.

Someone should tell the Pentagon: Disclosing CUI (a term made up by the government that has nothing to do with classification) is not against the law when government employees do it.

Great to see Chicago news outlets and press orgs stand up against ICE's violent and unconstitutional rampage against journalists and protesters.

Thanks so much to everyone who boosted this post, wow! We have gotten several inquiries but it's a big government with a lot of information to go after. If you're a journalist, analyst, advocate, blogger, YouTuber, or just want to gab about records drop us a line

Today was my last day as a federal employee, but tomorrow I and my new partner, Ginger Quintero-McCall, open a new law practice, the Free Information Group. We are both FOIA lawyers, and we are very good at suing the government. 1/

So proud of my dear friend @kevinok.bsky.social for launching his practice today. Transparency has never been more important or more elusive. Knowledgeable and passionate public records attys like him and his partner are going to be fighting the good fight. Check them out! freeinformationgroup.com

I'm skimming, but this paragraph stood out:

cannot believe what the front page of hud dot gov looks like right now

My weekend at the Broadview ICE facility.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Breaking:   WASHINGTON (AP) - Judge suspends Trump administration's plan to eliminate hundreds of jobs at agency overseeing Voice of America.

After António de Oliveira Salazar woke up from a coma his aides convinced him he was still dictator of Portugal but just couldn't leave the house for almost two years

Tomorrow is my last day as a federal employee but I will have NEWS to share very soon

Thanks not only to my overworked and underpaid legal team, of course, but also the ACLU, EFF, Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, & other organizations whose amicus briefs played such a large role in helping the court come to this decision.

Anyone with an open FOIA to FCC about L'Affair Jimmy will want to add one to FEC

Timely piece from @davelevinthal.com One difference between ICE and CBP during the first Trump administration and the second is that both are now designated security agencies. This puts them in the same category as the FBI and gives them more leeway to hide info from FOIA re agency personnel.

Community note on X

in retrospect, there’s probably never been a name as threatening as “America Online”

Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.

It seems like we're experiencing a sort of rerun of the political violence of the 1960s—except this time we have the internet cooking everyone's brains. None of this leads anywhere good.

Please, please listen to me: MAGA world has a lot of money to pay "researchers" to trawl niche social media sites like this one, and take posts that will provoke enormous outrage and plaster them across multiple platforms. Please think about what you're posting before you hit "Post"

ATLANTA (AP) — Judge says he'll toss the racketeering case against 61 people tied to protests over a training center called “Cop City.”

Park Police mounted unit come on you're making this too easy

going to keep saying: a society that would like to keep functioning has to discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

Well it would be impossible for the police to do their job of ethnic cleansing if they couldn't target people by ethnicity, naturally

If you are in line for DC Grand Jury duty, STAY IN LINE
