Does she have a child who is a rockstar? Because that’s the only way it makes sense. I expect she’s about as good at mothering as she is at lawyering.

They’ve sued 29 states for this data, including all of the swing states (AZ, GA, MI, NV, PA, WI).
SCOOP: Federal judiciary approves new Supreme Court defender office to help represent indigent defendants at #SCOTUS.
Its full-time director will serve as a counterweight to the U.S. solicitor general in federal criminal cases. The first will be former Kagan clerk and SG atty Ashley Robertson.
Axios editors have responded to my email and said they will get it fixed.
As if the Nazi Bar that Twitter has become isn’t bad enough, I just had to update the app, and I’ve lost the ability to use it in dark mode. This may be the thing that gets me off of there for good.
Glassman has actually won something (Tucson City Council). Lake, not so much.
My name is Marisa Kabas, and I'm an independent journalist who publishes The Handbasket. I'm reaching out about a matter that involves your team and that continues to trouble me. In June of last year, Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and I filed a FOIA lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan Police Department to compel them to release body camera footage from the March 17, 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace. What followed was months of back and forth with their lawyers, arguing why it was in the public interest to release the un-redacted footage in its entirety. Though tiny segments were handed over, that wasn't enough: We wanted all of it. On February 18, 2026, a DC judge ruled in our favor, and your reporter Mark Segraves sent a kind note of congratulations that day. Then on Monday, March 2nd, the footage was handed over to me and excitedly announced I'd received it and would be reviewing it in the coming days and sharing what I learned. When Segraves emailed me this past Thursday asking for my phone number, I didn't think much of it. But when he called me just before 2pm on Friday to let me know NBC4 Washington would be airing a segment at 5pm, I grew concerned. Segraves said he'd obtained some of the footage via a FOIA request that week after he heard the footage had been released to me. He said he'd credit the work of RCFP and me, but it was little comfort. I asked if he'd known the day before when he emailed me for my number, why didn't he tell me then? He didn't have a good answer for that. He acknowledged all the hard work I'd done getting this footage released. I asked him if he could hold the story until Monday, to which he replied that he's "not just a blogger" (implying that that's all I am, presumably) and that he'd have to check with his editor. I said fine. Nearly an hour later he called back to say his editor refused to hold the story, but that they were happy to interview me via Zoom to add to the package, and I said I would.
What followed was two hours of furiously writing and posting clips of the footage to Youtube so I could get something published before the 5pm broadcast, and in the midst of that, recording a quick Zoom interview with a person who was about to take credit for my work. At 4:59pm ET, The Handbasket published a piece titled "Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid." Then I tuned into NBC4 Washington via your website to catch the broadcast, and my instinct to rush to get something out first was proven right. "It's a story you're seeing first on News4," your newscast began. "For the first time we're getting an inside look at what happened the day the Trump administration took over the US Institute of Peace. News4 obtained more than four hours of police body camera video from that day." What followed was more than six minutes of clips and commentary from Segraves, but it's not until six minutes and 21 seconds into the piece that he mentions my name (mispronounced though he asked for the correct pronunciation on Zoom), "The Handbasket blog," and the RCFP's foundational role in bringing this footage to light. I was angry, but didn't feel there was much I could do. Then I saw the version NBC4 posted to Instagram and TikTok—the video itself made ZERO mention of the RCFP or my work, only briefly acknowledging it in the written caption on Instagram, and not even bothering to do that on TikTok. An average viewer with no background on the case is lead to believe that this footage was released because of your efforts. When I saw that, I decided I couldn't let this go. It's difficult to explain what it's like to spend nearly a year working on a story only to have another reporter and outlet surreptitiously take credit for it; months of work and personal risk only to have another reporter lying in wait to swoop in. What NBC4 did was immoral, unethical, and to be frank, just truly sucked.
I just sent this email to the news director at NBC4 Washington about the unprofessional and disrespectful way they handled publishing the body camera footage of the DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that was obtained via my FOIA lawsuit:
Another fine piece of work from @lizdye.bsky.social, who I can always count on to keep up on Kari Lake news. But I must take exception to Liz’s suggestion at the end that Kari return to AZ and run for office again. She bought a place in IA, they can take back their daughter. AZ doesn’t want her.
Ruth McGregor and Scott Bales led the committee that got that statue made. I was clerking for McGregor while the sculptor was working on it and we got to see all the progress photos. I can’t say your description is inaccurate.
Arizona has had five women serve as governor, more than any other state.
Boomers are 60+. Gen Z are no older than 29. Seems like actual experience in marriage could explain a lot of the difference.
May you continue to get use out of that tee for many years to come.
She had a name change petition granted in 2021 😎
But in contested cases, she’s batting .000.
Can’t say I’m the least bit saddened by Kari Lake finding new and different ways to lose.
Also, Carter was a retired Naval officer. I admit to not knowing the protocol, but that seems like it might make a difference.

But they have to be barred somewhere. And most jurisdictions impose reciprocal discipline.
How is Marisa not hitting the mark here? Seems to me she’s pointing out that CBS news is whitewashing Sheehy’s criminal conduct, just as you are.
TOCs are pretty easy. TOAs are a giant pain and I often do a lot of manual fixing to get them right.
I used to represent media entities and the public records law was my bread and butter. Always did a search for pubic before sending/filing.
I’m really glad I’m not the only one for whom this is the immediate reaction to any mention of psoriasis.
As one of your constituents (and supporters since your days in the AZ Leg), I am appalled by this endorsement. Platner is cozying up to Nazis. There’s is no reason you should be endorsing anyone in a Dem primary, and most definitely not this guy. bsky.app/profile/hunt...
Seems to be the latter.

The primary is in June, right? Pretty sure February polls don’t mean much.
Susan Collins very well might not win if Mills is the Dem nominee. But she will destroy Platner if he wins the primary.
Yeah. I’ve been a county and state government attorney for about 15 years (civil practice in many areas, but the bulk is election law). We do not get any leeway from judges (state or federal). But also, I would crumble and turn into dust from the embarrassment of filing something with placeholders.
To all those who are saying "I did not vote for this, this is not what I voted for when I voted for him!" -
Yes, you did. Yes, you did. Yes, you did.
We told you. We warned you. You didn't listen.
The judges in WV have seen enough.
They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out.
