@dahiya_Rohtas If Google could roll back Maps to about two years ago when it still functioned, why that’d be a great upgrade!

For the past few weeks, I’ve been working behind the scenes with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California on a major matter. Months ago, Barr & Klein PLLC's client, @OKeefeMedia , delivered a first-of-its-kind investigative report, publishing undercover footage of blatant voter fraud happening in broad daylight on Skid Row. All too often, claims about voter fraud are treated like spotting a leprechaun. But putting actual, undeniable video evidence in front of the American public changes the game. I am glad to see this administration taking the evidence seriously, and proud to be part of what is shaping up to be a historic undertaking. Stay tuned.

A great day for free speech and @OKeefeMedia @JamesOKeefeIII . Today, the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed a lawsuit that tried to turn undercover journalism into tort and wiretap liability. I am proud of this win because the opinion takes constitutional freedoms seriously. The First Amendment needs real breathing space. It protects reporting that is uncomfortable, adversarial, and inconvenient to powerful institutions. Especially then. Most importantly then. I wish every judge approached constitutional freedoms with the same seriousness shown here. When courts remember that free speech is not a technicality but a foundation of our system, the whole country is better for it. We cannot allow tort law to be used as a backdoor to punish innovative journalism.

Musk v OpenAI. As a constitutional litigator, I’m looking past the courtroom drama to the actual governance documents. We're examining the legal gymnastics used to bring Microsoft into the fold—and what it means for the future of AGI. youtu.be/JWZNsAAckXU

@pushkersoni72 It would be nice if Google hadn’t broken Maps over the past year or so, added distracted driver prompts, and otherwise destroyed its previously well-operating platform.

California’s new AB 2624 (unofficially dubbed the "Stop Nick Shirley Act") is a direct assault on independent journalism and the First Amendment. Under the guise of privacy, California is creating a ready-made weapon to silence anyone who dares to film or expose institutional rot. The optics are a constitutional nightmare: One spouse writes the rules in the legislature, while the other, the Attorney General, enforces them against the very creators investigating their administration. From Nick Shirley’s fraud exposures to James O’Keefe’s undercover reporting, the message is clear: if the truth is inconvenient, the political class will try to make the reporting illegal. This is how silence begins. Watch the full breakdown of why this draconian bill is a machete aimed at the heart of accountability. youtu.be/T61UPegiOmM

Today was a good day for constitutional law. Barr & Klein PLLC secured the Second Amendment rights of @JamesOKeefeIII . This all stems from the subject of an investigation claiming investigative journalism constitutes "stalking" and is a form of "violence." To take that position is contrary to the heart of the First Amendment and is a judicial kill switch for investigative journalism. After winning on the Second Amendment issue, we push forward with an emergency appeal to secure James's First Amendment rights. After today's hearing, I shared the story with Viva Frei and Matt Gaetz at OANN. It's been a long day. It'll be a longer weekend finishing the emergency briefing. Forward.

In this week's constitutional commentary, we examine the constitutional war over secret papers. President Trump's DOJ recently declared the Presidential Records Act unconstitutional which left many historians and transparency advocates fuming. We dive into 200 years of history, precedent, and the separation of powers doctrine to get to the core of this controversy. Join us! youtu.be/xzFVIE4Cxwg

@ProsecutorsPod I believe Westlaw had the highest hallucination rate in recent studies. And their reps have the chutzpah to try to upsell it to me like it’s a secret weapon.

This week’s constitutional commentary examines how the recent Afroman holding advances First Amendment values. This short video shows how parody, ridicule, and public mockery often sit at the heart of protected speech. youtu.be/D8LnIvYre3g

@farrowpilled Any statement sounding in “very extremely serious” sends me in the opposite direction.

McDonald’s CEO is playing 10D chess. Sets the bar low with Big Arch review. Comes back talking “beef notes” and “‘mouth feel” on McChicken Big Mac. Turns out he’s a Harvard MBA and latest IG post is about how he’s been asking Gemini to pitch new product ideas and it suggested McRib Nuggets (!!!) and more Korean sauces. Now, McDonald’s stock has an AI narrative and we all know about it because of the viral attention his Big Arch stunt has created. We all been played like a fiddle. Respect.
