The judge orders that no suitable replacement is available for Flaherty, but that they will start with written interrogatory and discovery in the form of document requests. The judge lays out a timeline for this. Understand, this is a very big deal. The next post will be very informative as well, as it addresses what will happen if the defendants pull some nonsense in written response, something the Plaintiffs also addressed. This judge ain’t having it.

This is the warning, “if you don’t respond correctly, dude will be sitting down for a deposition under oath.”

Jen Easterly: the judge asserts there is reason to depose Easterly and he has gone through why, but also decides that Scully is a suitable replacement. I actually agree, FWIW. Anything that they can’t get from him, they will then go to her for, and he was involved EVERYWHERE. As an aside, please note how the judge points out “cognitive infrastructure” in his order.

Cognitive Infrastructure = your thoughts, beliefs, opinions. Theyre talking abour censoring things they want hidden from you to control your ‘cognitive infrastructure’: mind control through propaganda & censorship.

Vivek Murthy: Murthy was one the Plaintiffs REALLY harped on, but the judge went with his underling; again, if they don’t get anything from the underling, Waldo, they will go back for Murthy. But Waldo is the biggest fish in his office with involvement here. Note, Defendants don’t think any discovery is required at all because what he wrote was good enough.
That’s nonsense and we discussed why. Clearly the judge thinks so too.
I consider this one a loss for now. They really needed Murthy.

I also need to add here, this judge is basically under the watchful eye of the 5th circuit right now, a higher court. As we have seen in many cases, it would’ve been easy for him to just side with the Defendant arguments in this case, not granting any further discovery because of the alleged harm it caused the government.
Even with a gazillion other courts breathing down his back, he is doing the right thing.
This is the most important civil liberties case in modern history.

In analyzing the judges decision, I suppose he is thinking that by allowing the deposition of a lower official, with options for more later, he is circumventing the 5th circuit stepping in and ruling over him on the pending mandamus (it originate on these deposition appeals.) He is throwing the higher court a bone, while also allowing Plaintiffs all the leverage and leeway they need to make the depositions they want. HOWEVER, I do have a concern.

There was some hotly contested back and forth on the deposition video and trannoscripts. Of course, the defendants didn’t want them released, arguing harm would come to the officials being deposed.
The Plaintiffs have been releasing the deposition trannoscripts as they get them, and while I am all for transparency, this is a teeny bit concerning to me.
A little voice in the back of my head is hoping they aren’t doing this to get info out in anticipation of the suit being dismissed.

Now, to be clear, I don’t have anything tangible to back this up. There’s been no action by the judge that insinuates it. There hasn’t been anything concrete at all. It’s just a little instinctual hunch that creeped its way in, and I would be remiss if I didn’t share it.
If I were they, I would keep the depositions close hold but publicly available and not parade them around like a trophy. Maybe an attorney can debate that with me.

Onward with the case. Jen Psaki: Now, this is something. Psaki was originally a defendant but left government. Then, the WH said they knew nothing about anything Psaki said and couldn’t return any responsive documents. The judge ordered her deposed.
Psaki didn't like that, so she started fighting it, with the government helping her. However, the government has maintained there is no replacement for Psaki. If you recall, I covered this one extensively.

Jen Psaki will be deposed, and it’s the Biden Administrations fault. Here is the link to the previous coverage: https://www.uncoverdc.com/2022/11/28/judge-in-va-takes-rhee-to-task-on-psaki-deposition-in-censorship-case/

Here is why I say there is nothing that this judge is doing that leads me to believe that he will dismiss the case. He basically tells defendants here that their motion to dismiss is bunk, while scolding them about the time they took to file it, and the fact that they asked a higher court to force him to halt discovery for a motion to dismiss that hadn’t even been filed yet!
He also reminds everyone that this discovery is ONLY so he can rule on the temporary injunction, and that since the plaintiffs do have standing (a central argument of the motion to dismiss) they may move to trial, where MORE deposition and discovery will be necessary.
The seriousness of this can’t be overstated. The judge just basically ruled on their motion to dismiss and told the government their argument is moot, as he has already ruled on it.
