I love document dumps. Recently, a Defense Department office dropped 2,500 pages in response to one of my requests. They provide a pretty revealing – and somewhat startling – look at how the Biden administration struggled to counter a Russian disinformation campaign after the Ukraine invasion.

I received some preprocessed records from the #FBI today relating to a #FOIA request for records on Chaos Computer Club in 1987. Preprocessed means they were already released to someone else, but I am not sure they were ever released publicly?

FDIC mistakenly released this document to @business & me in response to my request that reveals SVB's top 10 depositors & shows that big VC & tech companies got a backstop for billions in uninsured deposits

The FDIC asked that @business destroy & not share the depositor list, saying the agency intended to “partially” withhold some details from the document “because it included confidential commercial or financial information”

NEW: 🚨 @business & I defeated ODNI & DOJ's use of a GLOMAR in our case (HUGE) for a copy of Trump's declassification standing order

Surprise! Now the agencies have officially confirmed to us they have no record of Trump's standing order

The disclosure by the agencies was made in response to a FOIA lawsuit @business & I filed last August against ODNI & Justice Dept’s national security division for a copy of Trump’s so-called standing order — if one existed.

A bill lawmakers will take up during a special session next week would hide all information about where Gov. travels on the state dime and with whom, retroactively to before she took office. The proposal comes the same week a lawsuit was filed over the ’s ongoing refusal to share the names of the governor’s travel companions and some of her travel expenses.

Oh you're not getting off the hook that easy, Department off the Treasury.

I haven't worked at BuzzFeed News for nearly a year. And I file all of my requests in my individual capacity as a reporter.

These agencies are just waiting for me to die.

Via Mark Pedroli, constitutional att’y:

JUDGE RULES Josh Hawley's AG's office must pay nearly quarter million $ ($242,385.38) for its lawbreaking conduct & public record concealment during the 2018 election.

A big win for transparency, election fairness, and the rule of law. 💪🏼


Instead of sticking taxpayers with a record verdict, Senator Hawley should step up and 1) apologize to the people of Missouri and 2) donate proceeds from "Manhood" to cover this bill.

Absolutely endorse this column from Ed Keenan in the Star.

“The public is paying for the World Cup and Ontario Place redevelopment, so why are the deals secret?

When the costs and benefits of any government action are kept secret, how is our democratic system supposed to hold that government accountable?”

"Justice Kent Teskey warned the province that courts take a dim view of delay being used to neuter public attempts to understand how important decisions are made.

'The requesting parties have been practically denied access to the information they are entitled to at law and this court will not abet this conduct through the availability of judicial review,' he wrote in a judgment released Friday."

Il principale consigliere del dottor ha violato le prassi sulla gestione dei registri federali sul COVID-19, che hanno minato le operazioni dell'NIH

Negli USA, come in Europa (cfr caso Von der Leyen - ) sembra una prassi consolidata (suggerita dalle società di consulenza?) quella di comunicare tramite account privati per sottrarsi a e indagini
