On September 10, 2026, the Grand American Union filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request against the U.S. Department of Justice, exposing DOJ Task Force Chair Leo Terrell’s egregious abuse of power in harassing Austin Franco-a private citizen who dared to exercise his First Amendment rights by declining a job offer due to religious objections.
The Crime: On June 13th, 2026, at 3:44PM, Terrell weaponized his federal position to dox Mr. Franco publicly-coordinating with media outlets like The New York Post, Fox News, and Cornell University to launch a sham "bias investigation."
This act constitutes multiple felonies under federal law:
18 U.S.C §241: Conspiracy Against Rights
18 U.S.C §242: Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law
18 U.S.C §2339B: Providing Material Support or Resources for Domestic Terrorism
The FOIA request demands all internal memos between Terrell and Palantir founder Gabe Einhorn regarding Franco, communications with Cornell administrators about the fake investigation, media coordination documents involving Fox News personalities who assisted in doxing, legal opinions justifying these actions as constitutional, and records showing how taxpayer funds were used in this operation.
Terrell’s actions are not isolated-they represent a systemic threat to American democracy where government officials use their power to terrorize citizens for exercising constitutional freedoms. His immediate arrest is necessary to protect public safety and uphold the rule of law.
