FOIA stan account. I file 100s of requests, then post the documents. Follow for exclusive govdocs & scoops. Work featured on Maddow, NYT, Politico, Time, etc.

I file hundreds of FOIA requests, then post the documents I get.

I repost things that the government pulls offline.

I chase down hard-to-find documents that are only on paper, then scan & post them.

Please support my work forcing transparency.

Ernie Lazar has announced retirement. Ernie, if you didn't know his name before, was (and is) a giant in FOIA requests. His tireless efforts to gain access to government documents has caused a huge release of information now online.

Pls @jjhorgan @KatrineConroy just....please act now. This should be illegal. I saw stumps of 1000 year old trees @SaveFairyCreek flagging tape on 2000 year old yellow cedars. It’s like destroying Pantheon or the Sistine Chapel to make a buck. Enough already. #oldgrowth #bcpoli

The university admitted it violated our free speech rights by refusing to run our ad on its buses, showing a dog suffering in its canine muscular dystrophy lab.

Now @TAMU changed its advertising policy to blacklist ALL charity ads 🤨 https://t.co/hvrIWtJLKo

NEW: By the time Michel Hernandez was done with his transfer to Charlotte CI, he was bloody and barely able to stand.
A rare video leaked to @MiamiHerald reveals his beating – which doesn't match officers' reports. @FL_Corrections authorized it anyway. https://t.co/BwpC3TK9ic
