yep, they have tons of reasons for a denial. you can appeal. it doesnโ€™t have to be fancy, just needs to include your original request, the file number, the denial letter, and your reason why you think theyโ€™re wrong. thereโ€™s a foia wiki and it has tons of helpful info. dm on twitter for help (same @)

Most cracked out news cycle in recent memory. Big thanks to Minnesota law enforcement for fueling this insane conspiracy theory by posting that picture of the words โ€œno kingsโ€ with absolutely zero context

whatโ€™s the time limit on replying to a text youโ€™re going to have to quote, with a joke, and after that, you missed the window? i think 30 min.

Great, ongoing #FOIA work from @kenklippenstein.bsky.social and @bethbourdon.bsky.social

KK also had a great 2020 piece for @thenation.com about ICE and CBP each being designated a "security agency" to hide employee info from the public

sorry iโ€™m late to the party. my experience with miami dade is if you ask them for a breakdown of costs you will see theyโ€™re double billing some stuff and you can get some money knocked down and then ask to narrow it a little to knock more $ off.

i wish bsky made it easier to see your follows by lumping all of them into one notification until you check the notifications all the way. then i would have seen you were on here.
