"This is the most transparent Department of Justice in our nation’s history. " There has never been a transparent DOJ in our nation's history, including this one. And this DOJ has STILL not posted its required 2025 annual #FOIA report. #docsoritdidnthappen www.justice.gov/oip/blog/jus...

1. DOJ likely violated the Epstein Act. 2. DOJ likely violated #FOIA under precedent from the Abramoff/Tom DeLay investigation: privacy for high-ranking pub officials is often outweighed by the public interest in knowing whether DOJ "pulled its punches." www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/u...

Tech bro Jack Dorsey can't be bothered to use proper grammar/capitalization when announcing 4000 people are being replaced by bots at a "strong" company with "gross profit [that] continues to grow." #teamhuman

Welcome to the Windy City, my friend. Home to five-day #FOIA response deadlines!

I'm very excited to announce that I am co-hosting a snarky new #FOIA and government transparency podcast on Bloomberg with my good friend @jasonleopold.bsky.social. Check it out! swap.fm/l/SPV6gC1hPD...

Our 2024 #FOIA numbers are in! Our suits resulted in the release of 106,966 pages of government records to our clients. These are documents that, but for a lawsuit, would never have been produced, or would have been slow-rolled for years. ☀️☀️☀️

Hey #FOIA friends. Here's a site that tracks all of our new cases and developments, for our clients who have consented to including their cases. www.loevy.com/first-amendm...

Great coverage by @niemanlab.org and @andrewdeck.bsky.social of our Digital Millennium Copyright Act claims against OpenAI. For digital publishers unhappy with the use of their content to create AI bots that compete with news business, this is the path forward. www.niemanlab.org/2024/11/copy...

Big news on the AI copyright front. Today our claims for The Intercept against OpenAI survived dismissal. There is a viable DMCA cause of action for news publishers without copyright registrations based on the unauthorized use of copyrighted material for the purposes of AI training.

Thanks to @jasonleopold.bsky.social @mvtopic.bsky.social and @a-marshall-plan.bsky.social at @reporterscommittee.bsky.social for sharing their insights

Great piece by @niemanlab.org @andrewdeck.bsky.social about the state of #FOIA. My view: compliance has become a "national disgrace" under both the first Trump and the Biden admins. This is bi-partisan problem. Delays will get worse. www.niemanlab.org/2024/11/what...

- developed and maintain foia.wiki, a free, collaborative legal resource in the federal #FOIA - help RCFP with policy issues related to transparency - really like learning about octopuses 🐙, which constantly amaze me If you have any government transparency questions, hit me up!

this week, The #FOIA Bakery filed a lawsuit against the Chicago Parks Department Aldermen + Chicago Parks respond to property owner complaints endeavoring to criminalize poor people who spend time in public parks and those who bring food to feed them. We are researching the bad behavior of Parks.

Federal departments and agencies seem determined to do everything they can to avoid compliance with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The latest game: cut the number of pages released per month to a pittance. My latest: www.ocregister.com/2024/10/18/t...

Quite the parenthetical in a long (and very well-reported) story about the agony of a sports gambling addiction.

Today starting at 1pm ET.
