THREAD / NEW:

Yesterday Florida's governor said FBI told him that 2 counties were hacked during 2016 election season, but he isn't allowed to say which ones.

So I filed public-records requests with the election supervisors in ALL 67 Florida counties.

I'll post results here... Image As each county election supervisor responds to my request, I'll post their responses to this thread, and to this page on my site:

1/ NEW: George W. Bush Library just let me know that it has processed Kavanaugh's material from his time in White House Counsel's Office.

They posted this material last month (and told me just now). Here's the main page:

THREAD/ I'm happy to report/humblebrag that my efforts to force transparency have gotten results.

The National Archives is changing a major aspect of its murky, decades-long process of deciding which govt records get destroyed and which get kept permanently. 2/ In Aug 2017, I saw in the Federal Register that ICE was asking NARA (National Archives) for permission to destroy all documents about the deaths & rapes of detainees in ICE custody.

I requested ICE's proposal & posted it, then let some reporters know
