James O’Keefe Some constitutional victories arrive with trumpets. Others arrive quietly in a case the press has decided not to love, for a journalist many would rather not defend. Democracy Partners v. O’Keefe is one of the latter. James O’Keefe is controversial. That’s no secret. In 2022, a Washington jury found against O’Keefe and Allison Maass, and the district court entered $130,000 in fraud and wiretapping damages arising from a 2016 investigation of Democratic political consultants.

Supreme Court Must Protect Citizen-Journalists From Oregon’s Censorship
Right now, the U.S. Supreme Court faces a crucial test: deciding whether states can criminalize undercover journalism simply because those in power dislike being recorded.

Anti-Semitism and the First Amendment
By Benjamin Barr Real Clear Wire Across the nation, college students are taking up the cause of Israel and Palestine through protests. Beyond those engaged in honest debate over the Israel-Palestine conflict are hate-mongers: people who use this as an opportunity to spread antisemitism. My client, Accuracy in Media, has been busy exploring and documenting these issues—not without a host of criticism thrown its way.

Evaluating the impact on physical inactivity of Together an Active Future, a partnership approach to physical activity promotion. A difference-in-differences study
Discussion We found that the introduction of the TAAF scheme, which focused on building partnerships to promote community-based physical activity, led to lower levels of inactivity than would have been expected in the absence of the intervention. This seems to have been due to increased engagement in sport and fitness activities in the intervention population.

A new species of Oligosoma (Squamata: Scincidae) from the northern North Island, New Zealand
New Zealand is home to a diverse cool temperate assemblage of skinks, with 60+ identified taxa (genus Oligosoma Girard), of which only 50 have been formally described.

This species is considered to be conspecific with a single specimen (Oligosoma “Whirinaki”) previously reported (in 2003) from Whirinaki Te Pua-a-Tāne Conservation Park ~370 km further south.

How well can poor child health and development be predicted by data collected in early childhood?
In the context of the new datasets being collected in England, the aim of this study was to explore how early childhood characteristics predict three important developmental outcomes: language disabilities (cognitive outcome), overweight/obesity (physical outcome) and socioemotional behavioural problems (behavioural outcome) in later childhood (11 years).

PROJECT VERITAS: I Filed An FEC Complaint Against The Clinton Campaign And The DNC Via @dailycaller
Yesterday I filed a complaint on behalf of James O’Keefe III and Project Veritas Action Fund with the Federal Election Commission. You may have heard about their discovery—Hillary for America, the Democratic National Committee, and numerous third-party groups appear to have knowingly violated federal coordination laws. This included a massive network of paid politicos staging fake protests, inciting political violence at Trump rallies, and otherwise manipulating the electoral system.
Wyoming Judiciary Committee to Consider Two Asset Forfeiture Proposals
Earlier this week the Legislative Service Office released two draft bills written at the request of the Joint Judiciary Committee of the Wyoming Legislature. Each bill would amend civil asset forfeiture under the Wyoming Controlled Substances Act (“WCSA”) in distinct ways. The committee will consider both bills at its meeting in Gillette next week.
Correcting the “Federally Run Exchange” Mantra
Before last week’s Joint Labor Committee meeting in Casper, Governor Mead sent a letter to the chairs of the committee—Senator Charles Scott and Representative Elaine Harvey—strongly supporting Wyoming’s pursuit of a state-run health insurance exchange under Obamacare.
The Solution to Too Much Government is Less, not More
Senate File 68 – Property rights ombudsman is yet another example of the compounding cost of government regulatory interference. This bill would create an Office of Private Lands and Energy Ombudsman. Normally, anything that would strengthen the position of private property rights owners versus state regulation should be a good thing.

Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform at the Wyoming Senate
After narrowly emerging from the Wyoming Senate Judiciary Committee by a 3-2 vote on Monday, yesterday the entire Wyoming Senate began to consider Senate File 14, which would replace civil forfeiture under the Wyoming Controlled Substances Act with criminal forfeiture.
