SCOOP: a group of "hackers on steroids" gained access to a large dataset belonging to Epik, the web host of the Texas GOP website, Texas Right to Life website, and anti-abortion snitch website. Image
I do not have access to the data cache but a source was able to verify the veracity of this press release.
Looking forward to checking out the public release! Image
This has blown up so I'm obliged to ask you to consider chipping in to support my independent journalism. You can support my muckraking for as little as $2.50 a month.

UPDATE: I've been doxxed and defamed by a customer of Epik. Rob Monster just publicly acknowledged the website.

UPDATE: the cache has been released to epikfail.win
CLARIFICATION: the Prolifewhistleblower site that Epik has provided services for is OWNED by Texas Right to Life, but the Texas Right to Life website itself uses a different provider. I regret the error in the original tweet. The rest of the reporting still stands.

Last Thanksgiving, two Dallas Police officers knocked on my door, citing a tip from the FBI national threat operations center that I was beating my girlfriend. Today, I obtained a file from the FBI via FOIA that states the FBI has no record of receiving such a tip. Image
Image
These records indicate that someone successfully impersonated the FBI in order to get me swatted. I was already aware this had happened but had to wait nearly a year to get the document that proves it. My reports to the Dallas Police Department about this have gone unanswered.
As I told the Columbia Journalism Review, this swatting incident occurred just before I published an investigative report that unmasked the operators of four major neo-Nazi accounts on X. I don't think the timing was coincidental.

We identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, @GlomarResponder as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation. Image
Since GlomarResponder was first created in 2012, the account has posted hateful, xenophobic, and pro-fascist content. “America is a White nation, founded by Whites. … Our country should favor us,” GlomarResponder wrote last month.

In August 2024, GlomarResponder posted: "‘Migrants’ are all criminals.”

“Nobody is proposing feeding migrants into tree shredders,” the account posted in March 2024. “Yet. Give it a few more weeks at this level of invasion, and that will be the moderate position.”

SCOOP: The email address Andrew Kloster, the OPM’s new general counsel and self described "raging misogynist," used to sign up for his X/Twitter account appears in a leak for an escort service website. The IP address for the escort service website account is in Washington D.C. Image
Image
Image
Image
As @marisakabas2 reported recently, Andrew Kloster has a history of misogynistic posts online. Today, I can report that Kloster's primary email address cited in this document is associated with an account on an escort service website. Image
The issue at hand here isn't one of morality, but rather a question of whether a high ranking government official could potentially be compromised due to possible interactions that are still technically illegal and could be used as blackmail against him. No shame to the workers.

NEW: Conservative hotelier Monty Bennett and a California-based company that offers protesters-for-hire have seeded an “astroturf” right-wing influence network that has kicked into overdrive to push controversial “Dallas HERO” city charter amendments.
1/
texasobserver.org/dallas-hero-in…
Over the last four years, a number of astroturf groups have been active in Dallas, including a pro-police group called Keep Dallas Safe and a dubious racial justice group called Dallas Justice Now that critics have deemed "fake." Who created and funded them has been a secret.

2/
These astroturf groups have lent their support to the controversial Dallas HERO Initiative city charter amendments, which critics say could cripple Dallas city governance. The amendments are supported by Monty Bennett and are opposed by every city council member in Dallas.

NEW: I've received evidence of an arrest for illegal geese harvesting in Springfield, Ohio. But it wasn't a Haitian immigrant who was arrested. It was a white man named Brian Comer, who shot two geese with a shotgun on a golf course. Image
It turns out that Trump and Vance were not wrong that people are illegally hunting wildlife in Springfield, Ohio — they just accused the wrong person.

Here's the full case report regarding the illegal geese hunting incident in Springfield, Ohio, in which the defendant admits to killing the geese without the necessary permit. Image
