Als die 17-jährige Brittnee Drexel 2009 in Myrtle Beach verschwand, führten die Ermittlungen über Jahre in immer neue Richtungen. Freunde gerieten unter Verdacht, ein Gefängnisinformant brachte das FBI auf eine erschreckende Spur, und lange schien der Fall in genau diese Richtung zu weisen. Es würde dreizehn Jahre dauern bis die Wahrheit ans Licht kam und diese war komplett anders als bis dahin vermutet.*Let's Connect*YOUTUBE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://shorturl.at/bV43J⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ INSTAGRAM: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://shorturl.at/tsVqa⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  (@darkcrimes.podcast) *Disclaimer*Alle behandelten Fälle werden intensiv und gewissenhaft recherchiert.

Als die 20-jährige Kayla Skeen tot in einem Waldgebiet aufgefunden wurde, stuften die Behörden den Fall schnell als Suizid ein. Doch ihre Mutter glaubte diese Darstellung der Ereignisse nie.

The interview focused on the critical role of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests in U.S. immigration practice and the serious consequences that can arise when government immigration records are missing, incomplete, or heavily redacted. Drawing on 29 years of immigration law experience, I explained that FOIA is essential for verifying a client's immigration history and meeting attorneys' ethical and due-diligence obligations. I highlighted two particularly troubling cases: a Canadian client who was placed in removal proceedings after her lawful entry records were missing from her FOIA file—even though the government later demonstrated through her Notice to Appear that it possessed those records—and a medical professional who has spent years trying to establish his citizenship history after government agencies were unable to locate records necessary to replace his citizenship documentation. Increasing redactions and missing documents are a serious systemic problems, and I emphasized that these issues have occurred across multiple presidential administrations and declined to attribute them specifically to the current Trump administration without supporting evidence. Overall, the interview demonstrated how failures in government recordkeeping and FOIA production can impose significant legal costs, threaten professional livelihoods, and, in some cases, contribute to individuals being unnecessarily placed in removal proceedings.

Today 31 US bases sit on a landmass smaller than Rhode Island, and Okinawans remain Japan's poorest people. Why is this? And what is the US military presence actually doing there? In his new book Why Are We in Okinawa?: A History of Violence (Bloomsbury Academic, 2026), award-winning journalist Jon Mitchell answers these questions and many more, tracing how the islands were annexed by Japan in the 19th century, occupied by the US through WWII, handed back to Japan in 1972, and now menaced by China — with tensions between the military and Okinawan citizens still simmering today. He gives Okinawans a voice, and we should listen. Because you're going to be shocked by some of what you hear on today's podcast episode. Jon Mitchell is a Welsh journalist based in Japan and a special correspondent for the Okinawa Times. He is the recipient of the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan's Freedom of the Press Lifetime Achievement Award, and an expert in the US Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). He's the author of several Japanese-language books about Okinawa, along with two English-language books: Why Are We in Okinawa? (2026) and Poisoning the Pacific: The US Military's Secret Dumping of Plutonium, Chemical Weapons, and Agent Orange (2020), which won a Society of Environmental Journalists' award. In 2023, he received Japan's most prestigious journalism prize, the Ishibashi Tanzan Memorial Journalism Award for public service.

In this solo episode, Clancy Harrison introduces the concept of "soldier farming" and explains why she believes it is a hidden issue in today's charitable food system. Drawing from her experience running a food pantry, filing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, and working directly with farmers, Clancy shares how current food purchasing practices can unintentionally exploit the very people they claim to support.

Captain James B. Bryant, USN (Ret.) and his Volunteer Research Team discuss Bryant's upcoming book Rush to Disaster: The Loss of USS Thresher with USNA Museum's Education Specialist, Sondra Duplantis. Rush to Disaster reexamines the 1963 loss of USS Thresher—the deadliest nuclear submarine disaster in history—using thousands of pages of newly declassified Naval Court of Inquiry (NCOI) records released through a landmark Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit. Written by a former nuclear commander, the book reveals how Cold War urgency, flawed assumptions, and institutional pressure combined to produce a catastrophe that reshaped submarine safety.

In this episode, I sit down with Gary Eastman, attorney, entrepreneur, and founder of Axcess Surety and SwiftBonds, to break down one of the most misunderstood—and overlooked—topics in the construction industry: surety bonds.   Gary holds both a JD and an MBA, spent more than 17 years serving as General Counsel for national and international companies, including Fortune 500 organizations, and has helped more than 20,000 clients secure bonding on projects with a combined value exceeding $1 billion. His experience sits at the intersection of law, construction, finance, and risk management, giving him a unique perspective on how contractors can grow while protecting their businesses.   We dive into the three types of bonds every contractor should understand, how bid bonds protect project owners from unrealistic bids, and why many contractors leave significant opportunities on the table simply because they don't understand the bonding process. Gary also explains the 3% pricing rule, how contractors can build bond costs into their estimates, and why increasing bond capacity can open the door to larger projects, less competition, and stronger profit margins.   We also discuss how contractors can identify bonded project opportunities, research competitors through public records and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, and position themselves for commercial and government work that many competitors avoid because of the additional requirements.   Throughout the conversation, Gary shares practical insights on risk management, business growth, and why the contractors willing to master the details are often the ones who gain the greatest competitive advantage.   If you're a roofing contractor or construction business owner looking to move beyond competing on price, pursue larger projects, and better understand how bonding can accelerate your growth, this episode is packed with actionable insights you can apply immediately.

Judicial Watch's Epstein-related lawsuit is primarily a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) action filed against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in late 2025, seeking the release of government records related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that the group says have been improperly withheld from the public. The suit, Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-04123), demands all documents that were subpoenaed by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, including what was provided in response and communications about that response, after the DOJ failed to adequately respond to an August 2025 FOIA request. The records sought include internal DOJ materials and communications with federal officials about the subpoena and the broader Epstein investigation — material that Judicial Watch argues the public has a right to see given the high-profile nature of the case and longstanding questions about transparency.In addition to the DOJ FOIA suit, Judicial Watch has filed related FOIA lawsuits seeking Epstein-related records from other federal agencies. These include a FOIA lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for any records concerning Epstein's possible involvement with intelligence activities, his business dealings and travel, his contacts with influential figures, and documentation about his death, after the CIA failed to respond to a July 2025 FOIA request. Judicial Watch has also pursued DOJ and FBI records on the identities of Epstein's clients or associates and records provided to the FBI by accuser Virginia Giuffre. Through these cases, the group aims to compel the release of materials that could illuminate undisclosed aspects of the Epstein investigation and potentially government handling of related evidence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The C.O.W.S. host Gus T. Renegade delivers an explosive update on his ongoing audit of the federal surveillance apparatus targeted at the late Dr. Frances Cress Welsing. Earlier this year, Gus filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to uncover the hidden state files on the renowned third-generation physician. The staggering truth is now coming to light: - The April File Drop: The initial 20-page release proved active FBI surveillance starting in 1973—two full years before Howard University terminated her contract. It confirmed the Bureau deployed informants to monitor her public lectures decades before *The Isis Papers* was published. - The Multi-Agency Net: The FBI admitted more files existed. Weeks later, Gus secured dozens of additional pages revealing a massive, coordinated spying web weaponized against the entire Cress family lineage. The 1956 Campus Surveillance: This new file exposes documents stamped "SUBV CONTROL" (Subversive Control) under Classification Code 100 (Domestic Security). It includes a crystal-clear surveillance photograph of a young Dr. Welsing before 1960 that was sent straight to the desk of FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. - The paperwork proves the Bureau weaponized university registrars and local informants to spy on a teenage Dr. Welsing's reading habits, political activities, and academic milestones. Join Gus T. for a comprehensive, counter-racist analysis of how the system tracks spectators and targets Black intellectuals from youth. #COINTELPRO #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

Kristian McCann speaks with Avi Pardo, Co-founder and CBO at LeapXpert, to unpack why messaging governance has become one of the most urgent issues in public sector UC.Consumer messaging tools weren't built for compliance — but that hasn't stopped government employees from using them every day. In this video, Avi Pardo explains why now is the time for IT and UC leaders to get ahead of the governance gap.Key discussion points:Why messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal have become the public sector's biggest governance blind spot — and how it happened.The critical role of compliant communication under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and the risks of leaving messages unrecorded.Common architectural mistakes UC and IT leaders make when trying to block or control consumer messaging.How Microsoft Teams integrations can bridge the gap between consumer convenience and enterprise-grade compliance.Why modern governance technology can now deliver control without adding friction for employees or external parties.Next steps:To learn more about regulated messaging in government and enterprise environments, visit LeapXpert website for details on compliant messaging solutions.

In 2014, Jeffrey Epstein — through his estate's representatives — submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to U.S. Customs and Border Protection seeking records that would reveal whether and how he had been subject to any monitoring, surveillance, questioning, or investigation by the agency years after his 2008 guilty plea to solicitation of prostitution involving a minor. The request asked for documents that could illuminate how, why, or when Epstein was flagged as a subject of interest by border officials, a detail long obscured from public view. This unusual FOIA filing, uncovered by investigative reporter Jason Leopold, shows Epstein actively trying to understand the scope of government scrutiny against him long before the recent push to release a much broader cache of files tied to his case.The story comes amid ongoing controversy surrounding the federal government's handling of material related to Epstein's criminal conduct and alleged networks. Under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, passed by Congress in November 2025, the Department of Justice was required to release all investigative records within 30 days, but as of early 2026 had only shared a tiny fraction of the millions of documents potentially responsive to that mandate. Epstein's FOIA request adds another layer to the public's scrutiny of what information federal agencies collected and retained about him, and how much remains hidden or heavily redacted decades after key events in the case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein Filed a FOIA Request - Bloomberg

Judicial Watch's Epstein-related lawsuit is primarily a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) action filed against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) in late 2025, seeking the release of government records related to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that the group says have been improperly withheld from the public. The suit, Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-04123), demands all documents that were subpoenaed by the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, including what was provided in response and communications about that response, after the DOJ failed to adequately respond to an August 2025 FOIA request. The records sought include internal DOJ materials and communications with federal officials about the subpoena and the broader Epstein investigation — material that Judicial Watch argues the public has a right to see given the high-profile nature of the case and longstanding questions about transparency.In addition to the DOJ FOIA suit, Judicial Watch has filed related FOIA lawsuits seeking Epstein-related records from other federal agencies. These include a FOIA lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for any records concerning Epstein's possible involvement with intelligence activities, his business dealings and travel, his contacts with influential figures, and documentation about his death, after the CIA failed to respond to a July 2025 FOIA request. Judicial Watch has also pursued DOJ and FBI records on the identities of Epstein's clients or associates and records provided to the FBI by accuser Virginia Giuffre. Through these cases, the group aims to compel the release of materials that could illuminate undisclosed aspects of the Epstein investigation and potentially government handling of related evidence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this podcast episode ... Since 1967, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) has provided the public the right to request access to records from any federal agency. And this year Connecticut commemorates the 50th anniversary of its Freedom of Information Act. Plus we take a look at other stories from across the region.

This Day in Legal History: Project Blue Book EndsOn this day in legal history, December 17, 1969, the U.S. Air Force officially terminated Project Blue Book, its two-decade-long investigation into unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Launched in 1952 during a peak in UFO sightings and Cold War anxiety, Project Blue Book reviewed over 12,000 reports of aerial phenomena. The Air Force concluded that most sightings could be explained by natural phenomena, aircraft, or hoaxes, and found no evidence of extraterrestrial activity or threats to national security. With its closure, the government effectively stepped back from public-facing UFO investigations, although some believe military interest continued behind closed doors.Legally, the end of Project Blue Book catalyzed decades of litigation and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, as citizens, journalists, and researchers sought access to government-held UFO data. The skeptical legal view has often emphasized that classified information typically relates to military technology or surveillance programs, not alien spacecraft. Despite popular culture's fixation on extraterrestrials, courts have routinely deferred to executive branch claims of national security in resisting full transparency.While the project's conclusion did not trigger direct legislation, it helped shape a legal culture around government secrecy, classification standards, and the public's right to know. It also fueled persistent legal tension between conspiratorial narratives and evidentiary standards. As UFOs—now reframed as “unidentified anomalous phenomena” (UAPs)—have resurfaced in congressional hearings in recent years, Blue Book remains a touchstone for the limits of disclosure and the enduring gap between public curiosity and provable claims.Skepticism remains warranted: decades later, no clear evidence has emerged to support the claim of extraterrestrial contact—despite tens of thousands of pages released and re-litigated under FOIA.U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy in Boston expressed openness to again striking down a Trump policy that allows for the rapid deportation of migrants to third countries without meaningful notice or an opportunity to raise fears of persecution or torture. The case challenges Department of Homeland Security (DHS) policies that permit deportation to countries other than a migrant's country of origin, often with as little as six hours' notice. Judge Murphy had previously issued an injunction in April to halt such deportations, arguing they violated due process, but the Supreme Court paused that order in June via its “shadow docket” without providing detailed reasoning.Despite acknowledging the likely involvement of the Supreme Court again, Murphy indicated that he may still rule on the merits of the case, though any decision would likely be temporarily stayed. The lawsuit, a class action, targets a DHS memo from March and guidance from July that permits deportations based on “credible” diplomatic assurances. Plaintiffs argue these policies fall short of constitutional protections, while the Justice Department insists migrants already have opportunities to raise objections during proceedings. The judge criticized the lack of clarity from the Supreme Court's earlier intervention and emphasized the importance of due process in removal proceedings.US judge open to again striking down Trump policy on third-country deportations | ReutersA Trump-appointed federal appeals court judge has argued that constitutional rights do not extend to immigrants who entered the United States unlawfully, a position he laid out in a partial dissent in a Second Amendment case. Sixth Circuit Judge Amul Thapar agreed with upholding a federal ban on firearm possession by undocumented immigrants but rejected the majority's reasoning. Instead, he argued the case should have been resolved by declaring that only U.S. citizens are included in “the people” protected by the Constitution. Thapar relied heavily on the Constitution's preamble and an originalist reading of history, asserting that the Founders never intended constitutional protections to apply to non-citizens, especially those unlawfully present.The majority opinion rejected that framing, pointing to Supreme Court precedent recognizing that non-citizens who develop substantial connections to the country may invoke constitutional rights. Thapar went further, suggesting that even the First and Fourth Amendments were not originally meant to protect non-citizens. The case arose from a challenge by a Guatemalan national convicted of unlawfully possessing firearms, but Thapar's reasoning reached far beyond gun regulation. His dissent echoes arguments long advanced by the Trump administration and aligns with his status as a former Trump Supreme Court shortlist candidate.From my perspective, this is a racist, xenophobic, and profoundly ahistorical take that threatens to usher in a shameful new era of American jurisprudence. It reflects either a fundamental misunderstanding of constitutional law or a wanton, careerist obsequiousness to Trumpism, delivered with the unmistakable tone of someone auditioning for a Supreme Court seat while extolling the flavor of boot. Judge Thapar is an embarrassment to the bench.Judge Thapar's theory represents a fundamental shift away from the traditional understanding of constitutional rights as inherent and inalienable—that is, rights present in every individual that the government is bound to respect, not rights it doles out at its discretion. By asserting that non-citizens, especially those here unlawfully, are not part of “the people” and therefore not entitled to constitutional protections, Thapar effectively treats these rights as government-bestowed privileges rather than limits on state power–that should frighten citizens, as well.But if rights are inherent, as our legal tradition holds, and yet non-citizens don't possess them, the implication is clear: they are being denied not because of legal status, but because of a presumed inferiority. That's not a theory of constitutional law—it's a supremacist framework gussied up in originalist language.Trump-appointed judge argues US Constitution's rights do not extend to non-citizens | Reuters3-D animator Eric Ryder filed a copyright infringement lawsuit in California federal court against Disney and director James Cameron, alleging that the 2022 film Avatar: The Way of Water copied substantial elements from his science fiction story KRZ. Ryder claims he collaborated with Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment in the late 1990s on developing a film based on KRZ, and that key features of Avatar 2—including anthropomorphic beings, a vast oceanic world, and an exploitative Earth corporation mining a moon called Europa—mirror those from his work.Ryder previously sued over the first Avatar film in 2011, but that case was dismissed when a California state court ruled Cameron had created Avatar before Ryder submitted his material. Ryder insists this new case is not an attempt to relitigate the past, but rather to address new alleged acts of copying specific to The Way of Water, such as the central plot point involving an animal-based substance that extends human life, which he says did not appear in the original Avatar.Ryder is seeking at least $500 million in damages and a court order to block the release of the upcoming Avatar 3: Fire and Ash. His lawyer described the alleged copying as “blatant and egregious.” Disney and Lightstorm have not yet commented publicly on the lawsuit.Disney, James Cameron sued for copyright infringement over ‘Avatar' | Reuters This is a public episode.

This Day in Legal History: Bush v. GoreOn December 12, 2000, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark decision in Bush v. Gore, effectively ending the Florida recount and resolving the 2000 presidential election in favor of George W. Bush. The per curiam opinion held that the Florida Supreme Court's method for ordering a manual recount violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment due to inconsistent standards across counties. The Court also ruled that there was not enough time to implement a constitutionally valid recount before the deadline for certifying electors.The decision was one of the most controversial in the Court's history. It was split 5-4 along ideological lines, with the majority—led by Chief Justice Rehnquist and Justices Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy, and O'Connor—arguing that allowing the recount to continue would irreparably harm Bush. The dissent, written by Justices Stevens, Ginsburg, Breyer, and Souter, criticized the majority for intervening in a state election process and undermining public confidence in judicial neutrality.The ruling effectively awarded Florida's 25 electoral votes to Bush, giving him 271 electoral votes—one more than needed to win the presidency—despite losing the national popular vote to Al Gore. The case remains a flashpoint in debates over judicial activism, the politicization of the courts, and the role of federal courts in state election matters. It also raised enduring questions about election integrity and the limits of judicial power in resolving political disputes.The watchdog group American Oversight filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Commerce and Justice Departments, demanding records of legal arrangements between the Trump administration and nine major law firms. The group had submitted eight Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests in October seeking details about agreements in which the firms pledged to provide nearly $940 million in pro bono or discounted legal services to the federal government. After receiving inadequate responses, the group took legal action to compel the release of any related contracts, communications, or internal legal analyses.The agreements were announced by Trump earlier in the year on social media, shortly after he issued executive orders targeting law firms for their previous political and diversity-related work. American Oversight is particularly concerned about whether the deals were transparent and whether they might have influenced government policy or enforcement decisions. Several firms—Kirkland & Ellis, Paul Weiss, Simpson Thacher, and Skadden Arps—were reported to have been involved in trade matters or other projects with the administration. None of the firms or the agencies responded to requests for comment.This lawsuit follows a similar legal action by Columbia University's Knight First Amendment Institute, which alleged in October that related federal record requests had been improperly denied. Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers have also asked several of the firms to explain their government work, but the firms declined, citing client confidentiality and discretion in matter selection.Trump administration sued for records of law firm deals | ReutersA federal judge blocked a renewed attempt by immigration authorities to detain Kilmar Abrego, just one day after his court-ordered release from ICE custody in Pennsylvania. U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis had previously ordered Abrego's temporary release, but an immigration judge quickly issued a new directive requiring him to report back to detention by the following morning. In response, Abrego's attorneys filed an emergency request to stop the re-detention, which Xinis granted.In her ruling, Judge Xinis emphasized that judicial decisions must be respected and cannot be reversed hastily without due process. Abrego's case has drawn national attention, serving as a high-profile example of what critics view as the Trump administration's heavy-handed immigration enforcement tactics. Originally deported in March to El Salvador under disputed circumstances, Abrego was returned to the U.S. in June to face charges related to human smuggling.Supporters argue his case reflects serious due process violations, while administration officials have maintained he poses a public safety risk. The legal tug-of-war over Abrego's detention has become emblematic of broader legal and political conflicts surrounding immigration enforcement and civil liberties under the Trump administration.Judge blocks new effort to detain Kilmar Abrego | ReutersA federal judge in Boston ruled that the Trump administration acted unlawfully when it attempted to terminate a FEMA program designed to help states prepare for natural disasters. U.S. District Judge Richard Stearns sided with a coalition of 20 mostly Democratic-led states, finding that the administration overstepped its authority by trying to cancel the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program and redirect its funds elsewhere without congressional approval.The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees FEMA, had labeled the program wasteful and politically driven when it moved to end it in April. Judge Stearns rejected that rationale, emphasizing that Congress—not the executive branch—has the power to decide how federal funds are spent. He previously issued an order in August blocking FEMA from diverting more than $4 billion in BRIC funding. In this latest decision, he ordered the program reinstated and required FEMA to take immediate steps to undo its termination.Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell praised the ruling, stating it would save lives by preserving funding for critical infrastructure improvements meant to prevent disaster-related harm. The Department of Homeland Security, in contrast, denied that it had ended BRIC and accused the court of siding with a politicized narrative, claiming the program had been misused by the Biden administration.Since its launch, BRIC has approved over $4.5 billion in grants for nearly 2,000 disaster mitigation projects, many located in vulnerable coastal states. The lawsuit, led by states like Washington and Massachusetts, argued that canceling the program delayed or canceled hundreds of vital community projects aimed at reducing disaster risk.Trump administration unlawfully canceled disaster prevention program, US judge rules | ReutersPresident Trump announced an executive order threatening to withhold federal broadband funding from states with AI regulations deemed obstructive to national technological dominance. The order targets state-level laws that the administration argues create a fragmented, burdensome environment for AI innovation, particularly for startups. Trump emphasized the need for a single, centralized regulatory system, positioning the U.S. to compete more aggressively with China in the AI sector.The order authorizes the Commerce Department to review state AI laws and restrict access to the $42 billion Broadband Equity Access and Deployment fund for non-compliant states. It also criticizes anti-discrimination measures in states like Colorado, claiming such laws inject “ideological bias” into AI development. While the administration supports certain safeguards, such as child protection, it aims to dismantle what it sees as excessive oversight.Critics argue the move undermines state authority and risks public safety. Representative Don Beyer warned the order violates the 10th Amendment and discourages meaningful congressional action. State leaders from both parties have defended their right to regulate AI, citing the federal government's inaction on tech legislation. States like New York, California, and Florida have already enacted laws addressing AI's risks, from data transparency to deepfake bans.Trump threatens funding for states over AI regulations | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Abigail Leahey and her classmates.This week, we are proud to present a performance of singular clarity, youthful ambition, and the product of more than a little bit of dedicated practice: The First Scale March, recorded live on December 10th at a school Winter Concert. Its thematic simplicity belies its pedagogical complexity: it is equal parts warm-up and war cry. The holidays are upon us.The featured artist, Abigail, is one of several violins. She was born in New Jersey in 2014 and has been defying expectations and delighting her family ever since. A gifted writer, illustrator, softball player, and—crucially—violinist, she began studying the instrument in earnest in early 2025. In a bold display of ambidextrous courage, she agreed to learn the instrument right-handed.Abigail's musical sensibility combines the raw urgency of a student recital with the unmistakable rhythmic intensity of a group trying very hard to play the same tempo at the same time. Her phrasing evokes a deep respect for the discipline of practice; she has come a long way—and is still going.We are honored to showcase this piece as a representative work from a performer at the dawn of her musical journey, backed by a supporting cast of equally determined string players. With hearts full and bows raised, they march forward—one note at a time. This is a public episode.

fWotD Episode 3090: Illinois Public Access Opinion 16-006 Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 20 October 2025, is Illinois Public Access Opinion 16-006.Illinois Public Access Opinion 16‑006 is a binding opinion of the Illinois Attorney General pursuant to the state's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Issued in 2016 in the aftermath of the police murder of Laquan McDonald, the opinion addressed a public records request from Cable News Network (CNN) for private emails by officers of the Chicago Police Department (CPD) related to the incident. After the CPD denied CNN's request, the Attorney General's office, led by Lisa Madigan, ruled that the police officers' private emails about McDonald's murder were subject to public disclosure, even though those emails were communicated on accounts outside of the police department's email servers. A prior appellate court decision in City of Champaign v. Madigan had established that communications about public business on personal electronic devices may be subject to disclosure. However, the scope of that decision applied only during public meetings convened by a city council or other public body, and it was unclear how it would apply to employees. In Public Access Opinion 16‑006, the Attorney General found that the police officers were acting on behalf of the police department, making their messages public records of the police department. Nonetheless, CNN never received the emails that it had requested, even after it went to court to enforce the Attorney General's opinion.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:45 UTC on Monday, 20 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Illinois Public Access Opinion 16-006 on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Ruth.

On today's episode of TFB's Behind the Gun podcast, we welcome back Jonathan Wild from Wild Arms Research and Development to discuss his latest—and fastest—rocket project to date: the Hypervelocity Rocket. Unlike conventional anti-aircraft munitions that rely on explosives, the Hypervelocity Rocket is designed to incapacitate targets through sheer kinetic energy, traveling at speeds exceeding 10,000 feet per second (approximately Mach 9). To bring this project to life, Jonathan has undertaken extensive research, including submitting official Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to uncover details about this once-classified initiative that has remained dormant in sealed government archives for years. In this episode, Jonathan shares his journey through the research, development, and testing of the Hypervelocity Rocket, and gives us a preview of his forthcoming book on the subject.

​Judicial Watch has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for allegedly failing to comply with multiple Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests concerning Jeffrey Epstein's associates and clients. The conservative watchdog group submitted four FOIA requests between February and March 2025 to various DOJ components, including the Office of Information Policy, the Criminal Division, the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, and the FBI. These requests sought records related to Epstein's activities and communications involving Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel regarding the handling and potential release of Epstein-related documents. Despite acknowledgments and assigned tracking numbers, Judicial Watch claims the DOJ has failed to provide the requested information or justify any withholdings, prompting the lawsuit filed on April 8, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.The lawsuit references a February 24, 2025, Fox News report in which Attorney General Bondi stated that Epstein's client list was "sitting on [her] desk." However, a subsequent DOJ document release on February 27, 2025, was criticized for lacking substantive revelations, as it primarily listed already known associates of Epstein. Judicial Watch argues that the DOJ's actions violate FOIA and hinder public transparency regarding Epstein's network. The organization seeks a court order compelling the DOJ to conduct thorough searches for responsive records, produce all non-exempt documents, and provide explanations for any withholdings. Additionally, Judicial Watch requests that the court enjoin the DOJ from further withholding non-exempt records and award attorney's fees and litigation costs incurred due to the DOJ's non-compliance.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DOJ allegedly violating FOIA over Jeffrey Epstein files

John Solomon and Michael Chamberlain discuss the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and its funding of the Global Disinformation Index (GDI) to suppress conservative voices and Trump's message. The grant, which started in July 2020 and was supposed to end in September 2022, was canceled due to publicity. GDI's reports boasted of diverting $100 million in ad revenue from conservative sites on their dynamic exclusion list. The work, initially framed as academic research, was actually about demonetizing and de-amplifying dissenting voices. The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents revealed GDI's impact on American politics and media. Later, esteemed legal expert Dr. John Eastman analyzes the implications of the recent Supreme Court decisions, particularly those affecting President Trump's immigration policies and the contentious issue of birthright citizenship. Dr. Eastman shares his insights on the evolving dynamics within the judiciary and the potential constitutional crises looming on the horizon. Finally, Shannon Davis, CEO of American Alternative Assets, discusses the economy and how precious metals can help you plan for your financial future.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

​Judicial Watch has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for allegedly failing to comply with multiple Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests concerning Jeffrey Epstein's associates and clients. The conservative watchdog group submitted four FOIA requests between February and March 2025 to various DOJ components, including the Office of Information Policy, the Criminal Division, the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, and the FBI. These requests sought records related to Epstein's activities and communications involving Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel regarding the handling and potential release of Epstein-related documents. Despite acknowledgments and assigned tracking numbers, Judicial Watch claims the DOJ has failed to provide the requested information or justify any withholdings, prompting the lawsuit filed on April 8, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.The lawsuit references a February 24, 2025, Fox News report in which Attorney General Bondi stated that Epstein's client list was "sitting on [her] desk." However, a subsequent DOJ document release on February 27, 2025, was criticized for lacking substantive revelations, as it primarily listed already known associates of Epstein.

Wyoming Bill Repealing Gun Free Zones Passes Without Governor's Signature Welcome to Gun Control Madness From Evergreen State to ‘Police State' as Washington Dems Push Permit to Purchase ATF: Big Brother with Bad Aim The Gun Owners of America (GOA) recently obtained a 35-page document through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request submitted to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in January 2020. The document, received in November 2024, reveals that the ATF has been monitoring online gun forums, social media websites, and law-abiding gun owners for over a decade, with an intelligence assessment on internet firearm sales dating back to November 2015.,The GOA claims that the ATF is abusing its power by targeting and harassing law-abiding citizens instead of focusing on actual criminals. The document shows that the ATF monitors lawful transactions and continues to surveil gun owners even after potential threats are deemed not credible. The ATF also misstates the law, claiming that greater anonymity in firearm purchases indicates a higher likelihood of violating federal law, despite Congress protecting gun owner privacy since 1986.,The ATF considers popular websites like Craigslist, AR15.com, Reddit, and Facebook as "unregulated marketplaces" and part of the "Deep Web," actively monitoring posts on these platforms. The agency complains about the growing secondary market of used firearms and the difficulty in tracing them, and it expresses a preference for websites with no anonymity for gun sales.,The document lists Nicholas Spranza Jr., an ATF industry operations intelligence specialist, as a point of contact. The GOA previously encountered Spranza in a lawsuit challenging the ATF's revocation of a Florida FFL's license, where he allegedly harassed customers, seized business records without a warrant, and admitted to violating the law during a compliance inspection.,The GOA calls for the incoming Trump administration to rein in or eliminate ...
