#Politico #FOIA'd the comms aftermath in wake of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau shut down by #DJT operative #russvought
The #CFPB agency was created to shield Americans from #fraudsters , #RipOffArtists and egregious #banking practices before its dissolution ordered by rabid #RWNJ #WhiteHouse offended by agency's mission.
The #redacted comms posted are not pretty, and reveal dissension and disarray amidst pointing fingers and circling bureaucratic wagons while Vought seeks to singlehandedly destroy an #agency launched during perilous financial crisis to serve and protect the American people.

[Video] 'Out of the #memoryhole': #Trump #criminal #trial #document makes #bad #week #worse for #Trump, #Vance.
The #unsealing of a #Redacted #court #filing by #FederalJudge #TanyaChutkan in #DonaldTrump's #election #subversion #criminal #trial adds new #details to what happened during the #January6th Insurrection, and combines with #ShadyVance's #lying and #distortions about January 6 in yesterday's #VPDebate with #TimWalz
Judge #Chutkin unsealed #JackSmith's #redacted #immunity #brief v #Trump 165 pages - https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.258148/gov.uscourts.dcd.258148.252.0.pdf quick quote - "The defendant asserts that he is #immune from prosecution for his #criminal scheme to overturn the 2020 #presidential #election because, he claims, it entailed official conduct. Not so. Although the defendant was the incumbent President during the charged conspiracies, his scheme was fundamentally a private one." Correct. Let's get moving! #democracy #corruption #courts
MORE: Prosecutors say their filing includes #unredacted quotes & info form sensitive sources such as grand jury transcripts/interviews, but that it will redact the footnotes identifying what those sources are.

#Chutkan may release the #redacted filing – w/o exhibits as soon as Oct 1 because she has set #Trump's objections deadline for 12PM that day, unusual if she's expecting to wait until after Oct 10.
#SCOTUS will issue rulings soon on a slate of controversial topics,such as #abortion, #guns, public #corruption, & if #Trump is entitled to #immunity for life….
#JesseBarrett’s work for #FoxCorp highlights one of #ethics experts’ biggest complaints about SCOTUS: Justices are not required to #disclose spouses’ clients,so the public has no way to track who is paying #money directly to their families. In her 2021 #FinancialDisclosure, #AmyConeyBarrett even #redacted the name of her husband’s firm….
Justice #Merchan says the questions about employers are necessary. But he directs prospective jurors' answers to be #redacted from the transcript & #reporters to not report them.
Christopher Conroy, one of the Manhattan DA prosecutors, is now arguing that #Trump has continued to violate the #GagOrder that was placed on him. [ya think?]
"It's ridiculous & has to stop," he says.

Just minutes before Joe #Biden was inaugurated, #MarkMeadows rushed to the #DOJ to hand-deliver a #redacted copy for a last review. Years later, the #Justice Dept has yet to release all of the documents, despite #Trump’s *declassification* order. Additional copies w/ varying levels of redactions ended up at the National Archives.
But an #unredacted version of the binder containing the #classified raw #intelligence went missing amid the chaotic final hours of the Trump WH.
(TFG: “it’s mine”)
The day before leaving office, #Trump issued an order *declassifying* most of the binder’s contents, setting off a flurry of activity in the final 48 hrs of his presidency. Multiple copies of the #redacted binder were created inside the WH, w/plans to distribute them across Washington to #Republicans in #Congress & #RightWing journalists.
Instead, copies initially sent out were frantically retrieved at the direction of White House #lawyers demanding additional redactions.
Former CEO Jeff Bezos instructed executives to "accept more defects," an internal term for irrelevant ads.

…The messages, acc/to the people familiar w/them, were originally #redacted to remove personal information.
For instance, the #unredacted #emails contain 2 schedules in which the Archives blacked out (then) Vice President #Biden’s morning session w/his personal trainer & a meal w/his grandchildren. The message, on which Hunter Biden was among those copied, was included in the cache because Mr. Biden had a public event on his schedule that same day w/a Ukrainian official.
So I just learned that a browser extension I made 2 years ago (and barely touched since then) that lets you redact text in your browser, is now used by 200+ people.
