1/Thread abt Grenell v. Troye defamation lawsuit:

We are publicly announcing that @MarkSZaidPC & #TomCraig (@TMCv63, @fhhfirm) are representing @OliviaTroye to defend against former Ambassador (& acting DNI for 3 months) #RichardGrenell’s defamation lawsuit.
2/We will not repeat lawsuit allegations, which arose from Twitter activity, but assuredly they are baseless.
3/His lawsuit was filed on August 8, 2022, in Circuit Court for City of Alexandria. Although filed almost one month ago, Troye has not been served to commence proceedings. For one thing, the address cited in lawsuit is incorrect.

1/We submitted discovery requests to @CIA, @DHSgov, @USCIS & @StateDept for records re: #Libyan warlord #KhalifaHifter, incl re his US citizenship.

Hifter said to have come to US through #CIA & granted USCIT. Yet Libyan law precludes his presidential candidacy if dual CIT.
2/More importantly, if #Hifter is USCIT then @DOJCrimDiv/@TheJusticeDept can prosecute him for alleged war crimes under US law.

Sadly @POTUS Administration never responded to my letter below, nor did Trump Administration when I wrote then AG Bill Barr.

END/Federal agencies were asked to respond to our discovery requests by May 2, 2022.

We are scheduled to depose #Hifter on May 9, 2022.
