Motion to Vacate and Remand Filed

UndeadFOIA — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 21:29:26 GMT

Yesterday we (pro se) filed a motion to vacate the dismissal and remand the case for further proceedings, citing judicial economy and a handful of analogous cases where intervening precedent decided a central legal issue—exactly what has happened in our case.

Docketed at Court of Appeals

UndeadFOIA — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 00:15:48 GMT

At long last, we have been docketed to the Georgia Court of Appeals, following dismissal in…September. Long story short: Fulton County is a mess.

Weaponization Working Group: Not Working?

UndeadFOIA — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 04:54:13 GMT

Over the last 24 hours there have been a series of stories on DOJ’s “Weaponization Working Group” and many of them are contradictory.

Russiagate: What We've Heard

UndeadFOIA — Sat, 24 Jan 2026 21:33:10 GMT

We’ve been at this a very long time. On average, we develop one or two good sources or contacts per year.

John Brennan: Target

UndeadFOIA — Thu, 22 Jan 2026 05:33:42 GMT

In the last few weeks there have been a handful of stories worth covering (with our apologies for the absence).

Breaking: Case Against Comey Dismissed

UndeadFOIA — Mon, 24 Nov 2025 18:01:32 GMT

Moments ago a Judge dismissed the case against former FBI Director James Comey, ruling that interim US Attorney Halligan was unlawfully appointed.

This is separate from a recent motion from the Comey team that suggested the grand jury indictment was invalid because it was not properly presented to the grand jury. Recent filings by the government showed …

This Is Who Shut The Schiff Investigation Down

UndeadFOIA — Mon, 10 Nov 2025 14:17:24 GMT

On August 11, 2025, JustTheNews reported on new documents showing that a whistleblower—a former staffer—had repeatedly approached the FBI alleging that Adam Schiff was leaking classified materials to hurt Donald Trump. The whistleblower detailed the process by which Schiff approved materials for leaks and went on to approach law enforcement numerous times about the scheme, beginning in 2017.

30 Russiagate Subpoenas Issued

UndeadFOIA — Sat, 08 Nov 2025 12:09:58 GMT

Reporting came out yesterday from JustTheNews and FoxNews that confirms a federal grand jury in the Southern District of Florida has issued up to 30 subpoenas to investigate Russiagate.

Subpoenas to John Brennan, Peter Strzok, and Lisa Page were noted by FoxNews. That leaves open the question of where the other 27 went.

It is unclear which angles of inv…

Rest in Peace Matt Cardinale

UndeadFOIA — Wed, 05 Nov 2025 13:07:00 GMT

Some sad news to report.

Most of you don’t know who Matt Cardinale was, he wasn’t a sleuth, he wasn’t even someone that I had spoken to. He was an activist who had founded an outlet called Atlanta Progressive News in 2005. An obituary shows what I came to appreciate from afar, Matt was tough.

He left home at 14 years old and was emancipated at 16. On ful…

New Filing In Comey Prosecution

UndeadFOIA — Tue, 04 Nov 2025 02:21:07 GMT

Earlier today there was an interesting filing in the Comey case, demonstrating that despite a weak criminal case, there is the prospect of interesting disclosures.

First, it’s frustrating that nearly 10 years after the events, we are still seeing new documents. Amidst all of the investigations and FOIA work, why are there new documents?

We still need mo…

In Santos Commutation, Trump Fails

UndeadFOIA — Sat, 18 Oct 2025 00:15:45 GMT

This week we saw an indictment of John Bolton, and as far as the high profile recent indictments go, this one seems strong. Bolton has some significant problems ahead, and what the indictment outlines is damning.

The recent indictments of James Comey and Letitia James are hard to see as anything but smear campaigns. Make no mistake, Comey deserves to be …

Former FBI Director Comey Indicted

UndeadFOIA — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 23:35:02 GMT

Moments ago former Director Comey was indicted for false statements and obstruction of justice. The indictment has been released.

Our first take is that if you’re someone who just wanted a headline, you got it. A former FBI Director has been indicted. If you’re someone who values our institutions and wanted real accountability, this indictment is weak a…

MSNBC: Former FBI Director Comey To Be Indicted

UndeadFOIA — Wed, 24 Sep 2025 20:22:53 GMT

MSNBC has just reported that James Comey is set to be indicted in the coming days, speculation is that it relates to September 30, 2020 Congressional testimony, regarding what Comey knew in 2016.

ABCNews: Daniel Richman Subpoenaed In Comey Russiagate Probe

UndeadFOIA — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 19:11:35 GMT

A few weeks ago it was reported that former FBI Director James Comey had authorized the disclosure of highly classified materials and for a former employee named Daniel Richman to serve as a contact for media outlets for Russiagate reporting.

Today, ABC has reported that Columbia law professor has been subpoenaed.

The story is developing, but as it stan…

Georgia Tech Has Crossed The Line

UndeadFOIA — Wed, 17 Sep 2025 00:46:51 GMT

Things have gotten unbelievably ugly, and they are going to get much worse. Over the last few months I have developed some new information relating to our Georgia case, interrupted by a rash of terrible news in the last few weeks.

Those familiar with our Georgia Tech documents—many of which are available on this site—may have a sense that GT never asked any questions they didn’t want to know the answers to. When they pursued an insurance claim for Antonakakis/Dagon’s legal expenses, they immediately stopped when the insurance agency asked basic questions about the timeline and authorization of that work.

On Charlie Kirk

UndeadFOIA — Thu, 11 Sep 2025 15:51:00 GMT

This is a tough one. Many people have put it far more eloquently than I will, but we lost someone truly great yesterday.

He built an organization, built a family, and created a movement. For someone who will forever be 31 years old, he has left one hell of a legacy.

The latest updates are that a bolt action 30-06 rifle was found in the woods, with trans…

Gone In 60 Seconds

UndeadFOIA — Thu, 04 Sep 2025 23:22:54 GMT

Long-time readers know we’ve been involved in Open Records litigation in Georgia for over 3 years. In August 2024, we won a huge case in Georgia’s Supreme Court, ensuring our case could continue.

In the spring of 2025, Georgia’s legislature changed the Open Records law, requiring requests to be made solely to Agencies. Based on that, the other side move…

In a fast moving news cycle, we plan to meet on X tonight at 9pm EST to talk about the latest developments.

John Solomon suggested earlier today he has a new report coming from a former senior FBI official, so we anticipate covering that as well.

We also have a few stories in the pipeline we hope to break in the coming days.

Breaking: Schiff Approved Leaking Classified Material

UndeadFOIA — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 01:05:21 GMT

A new story from JustTheNews by John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy just dropped.

A former staffer on the House Intelligence Committee approached the FBI beginning in 2017 and again in 2023 and informed them Adam Schiff had approved leaking classified materials to hurt Donald Trump. The whistleblower also named Eric Swalwell as a source of classified leaks.

Money Laundering at Vatican Tied To Russiagate

UndeadFOIA — Mon, 11 Aug 2025 16:22:42 GMT

Politico is out with a new story on the Vatican (Thanks Daniel for giving us the heads up), and a former accountant appointed in 2015 named Libero Milone. Milone, a former auditor from Deloitte hired by the Vatican, alleges that the payroll agency was able to alter names and account numbers on transactions after they were made, and that this enabled the…
