BOOM!!! Federal court orders the appointment of a special master to review materials seized from Project Veritas in the DOJ’s Ashley Biden Diary case… despite DOJ objections, court rules First Amendment protections support our client’s request. Great work by Paul Calli and team!
2/ Why is the DOJ using battering rams and grand juries and secret warrant applications and a ton of federal LEO resources on a diary some other outfit published a year ago? Is the president abusing his power by using the DOJ to do his private bidding to harass journalists?
3/ Project Veritas is gratified that multiple media outlets and journalist organizations have recognized the seminal importance of this case. DOJ has even tried to argue that PV are not journalists so those pesky constitutional, statutory, and regulatory constraints don’t apply.
4/We continue to believe that the government must be ordered to disclose the search warrant applications underlying these abusive searches so that we know how they purported to justify such extraordinary and invasive searches of a journalist investigating the Biden administration

If you think politics is brutal, you definitely don’t have the stomach for the vicious back and front-stabbing and gender/race/weight/sexual preference rules of the knitting world… 🥺
One prominent knitting YouTuber questioned why Michelle Obama was photographed on the cover of Vogue Knitting while not wearing a hand knit, and the crowd went wild. The knit-vlogger profusely apologized which was chum in the water.
Sometimes people ask me if I would write up and sell my patterns. But you can’t do this successfully unless you design for and use morbidly obese models, multiracial models, androgynous models. Anything less than this makes you a hate criminal. Catering to a mob is exhausting.
Latest in the OSHA mandate sweepstakes! OSHA filed an overlong, merits brief without meeting and conferring w/rest of the parties, seeking to dissolve injunction; our client @realDailyWire (Bentkey) filed motion to let the court issue briefing schedule next week, go from there.
Little known fact that many of the later filers in litigation are unions seemingly allied with the government’s goals. They mainly opposed our motion, want the court to hurry up. Most private parties supported our motion. Other parties opposed OSHA motion to dissolve stay.
3/ And @AmerMedicalAssn just filed amicus brief supporting the government’s hurry-up, dissolve the injunction & cut to the merits decision even before the court has set a briefing schedule or decided the request of multiple parties including @realDailyWire, to hear case en banc.
BREAKING! The federal court has just ordered the DOJ to STOP extracting data from our client, journalist James O’Keefe’s phone, and ordered a hearing. Counsel for Project Veritas asked the court to do this yesterday!
* Strictly speaking the court ordered BRIEFING; there may or may not be a hearing. Court may decide it on the papers.
The lawyers responsible for obtaining this court victory for Project Veritas are my colleagues Paul Calli, Ben Barr and Stephen Klein. Stay tuned for more to come in court.
People keep asking me about class actions to challenge vaccine/mask/testing requirements. Given that individual employers have individual policies, & individual workers have different reasons for their personal medical decisions, widespread class actions are likely NOT the best/
2/ way to challenge such requirements. Within a specific company perhaps a class of employees with similar issues could mount a challenge, but if there are not enough of them to justify class rather than individual or "mass" treatment, then a class won't be certified ... and/
3/ the litigation will be delayed by several months with no forward movement. So who can challenge the anticipated OSHA regs? Definitely employers who don't wish to interfere with or control their employees' medical decisions. Potentially impacted employees may have a path too/
1/ CA Voters -- still haven't received your ballot? They were mailed more than two weeks ago so that's a problem. Call/email/visit county registrar of voters to address: sos.ca.gov/elections/voti… -- get that ballot!
2/ Vote that ballot YES on RECALL, and pick a strong replacement for Governor Newsom (admit it - you know he's done a terrible job, and YOU deserve better), then deliver your ballot one of many ways: cavoteguide.com has a list of places near you to vote if not by mail.
3/ All done with the key goals? Encourage your friends and family to vote YES on recall. Help them -- drive someone to a voting center or polling place, offer to deliver their ballot ...
