Lawyers for Project Veritas have just revealed a stunning abuse of the First Amendment and of the orders of the federal court in the SDNY by the DOJ and the US Attorneys Office in the SDNY.
These abuses arise out of the far reaching investigation into Ashley Biden’s diary that PV never even published. Read the letter from PV’s lawyers: assets.ctfassets.net/syq3snmxclc9/3…
And here is a description of what the govt did and how it impacted the rights of Project Veritas projectveritas.com/news/microsoft…
Take particular note of page 5 of the lawyers’ letter. They argue that the govt represented to the court that the scope of the investigation was very limited, as it only involved the diary. Yet the secret orders required Microsoft to turn over ALL emails of PV journalists.
The time frame covered by this secret search of the journalists’ private, First Amendment-protected correspondence began eight months before PV even heard of the diary, and continued through renewals up to and after the search warrants on O’Keefe and former journalists.
