#DOGE Keeps Trying to Dodge #FOIA. So We’re Suing.
#TheIntercept filed a #lawsuit to force Trump administration to comply with federal transparency law when it comes to so-called Department of Government Efficiency.
The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan federal court under Freedom of Information Act, concerns multiple FOIA requests for DOGE records. At first DOGE simply ignored these requests while #ElonMusk’s crew ransacked federal agencies and accessed sensitive data systems.

"“Anything that shows solidarity of #Palestine is being mischaracterized quite erroneously as #antisemitism. That’s the way in which they are trying to get us to stop speaking about Palestine,” he says."

Emilia Jones – „Winner“ (2024)
Eine Dramödie soll dieser Film sein. Als solcher funktioniert er leidlich. Das Lachen, das befreien soll, bleibt uns aber oft im Halse stecken. Um so mehr, angesichts der (Wieder-)Vereidigung des 47. US-Präsidenten. Ein Land, das zweimal denselben Fehler macht, kann eigentlich nicht mehr darauf rechnen, dass wir das noch mit Humor nehmen. (ZDF)
I found #jimacosta in #substack , he has only five Substacks but it seems to me that he is moving there after being demoted by #cnn , it is also my view that the sides are clear, on one side you have the #maga and their disinformation apparatus like #Twitter ( now X) #facebookandinstagram ( #meta )the #legacymedia and on the other side it is #Coso #substack #Mastodon #bluesky and #theintercept in news outlets, I never thought I was going to see this happening here in the USA.
La verificación de los hechos de Facebook nunca nos salvó. Solo hizo que los liberales se sintieran mejor
De una nota de Natasha Lennard
«Los clavos están bien clavados en el ataúd, y el ataúd ha sido enterrado: hace tanto que está muerta la idea de que las plataformas de redes sociales como X o Instagram son o bien editores de noticias confiables, sitios para la construcción de comunidades liberadoras o centros para la democracia digital. En cambio, debemos pensar en Internet como un lugar impulsado exactamente por los motivos de las personas que poseen estas plataformas y se benefician de ellas.
«En algún momento Internet pudo haber sido entendida como un bien común de información, pero eso fue hace mucho tiempo”, escribió el teórico de los medios Rob Horning en un boletín reciente . “Hoy, el propósito principal de Internet es poner a sus usuarios bajo vigilancia, hacer que nadie haga nada sin generar datos y asegurar que se puedan aplicar paywalls, tasas y otros tipos de cobros por información que alguna vez pudo haber parecido gratuita pero tal vez nunca quiso serlo”.
Las plataformas de redes sociales son grandes corporaciones para las que nosotros, como usuarios, producimos datos que luego se extraen como mercancía para vender a anunciantes y agencias gubernamentales . Los directores ejecutivos de estas corporaciones son cobardes y ávidos de poder.»
The Circus is Coming to Town -- The Bizarre Lawsuit of #EnergyTransfer v #Greenpeace and #RedWarriorSociety
by #CensoredNews, January 1, 2025
"It's the most bizarre lawsuit -- Energy Transfer v Greenpeace and Red Warrior Society, eight years later.
"There are loads of documents hidden away with 'confidential' stamps in the court records, and a whole lot of players -- governors, Congressmen, and law enforcement, in the shadows.
"The fragments, , between the blackouts of 'redacted,' show that the head of Energy Transfer hasn't been answering all the questions in depositions. Other snippets show that the #OilPipeline doesn't want to reveal its spills, and whether there's been contamination already into the water at #StandingRock.
"Meanwhile, there's a 'newspaper' tainting the potential jurors, attorneys say, which promotes the sheriff.
"And where are all the files on #TigerSwan, the paid #FBI informants, and the military #SpecialOps? Tens of thousands of documents of TigerSwan were gained by #TheIntercept in another court battle.
"Where are the files on the #drone being shot down by law enforcement, the U.S. #BorderPatrol's surveillance plane, and the #BIA's #surveillance van parked at the casino, with undercover officers wandering around inside?
"The judge, appointed by the governor, won't recuse himself.
"#UnicornRiot media is in Minneapolis Supreme Court fighting the pipeline's subpoena to seize its confidential media records.
"#WaterProtectors and media have been served with third party subpoenas by the pipeline for this fishing expedition for their info.
"And it's all coming to #MandanNorthDakota, at the end of February, to North Dakota's District Court,
home to #MortonCountySheriff.
"It's a $300 million #SLAPP lawsuit to shut them down, says Greenpeace. Greenpeace said there was a large dump of records into the case.
"Stay tuned, and dig through the files -- good luck."

The Alsayed brothers lost their mother in the first bombing. They thought the White House could help save the survivors.
