Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      I'm pretty sure @JasonLeopold already submitted a more general FOIA for that. Isn't rooting for prompt FOIA success fun from the outside?

      This seems MUCH quicker a FOIA production than I ever witnessed while in ODAG.

      @JasonLeopold has prolly seen as many FOIAs thru ODAG as you did, right? His second fastest.

      It would have had to clear EOUSA and ODAG and OAG quickly - which says something.

      I hope it's the beginning of a trend. I filed request June 12, sought expedited processing, and here we are. I am stunned & grateful to DOJ!

      Right! But my point is that OAG and ODAG actually let it go -- and quickly. That to me is the big win for you; they could've easily stalled.

      They're still stalling on routine calendars from 2007-8 for me from a 2014 request, for example.

          Stalling or lost? Seems lost if that long ago.

          Stalling. They're routine. But not routine.
