Yep. That's the problem and it's not like Donnie's in a functional mood to do anything.

From what I'm seeing so far:

- A lawyer somewhere is probably hosed, as his/her attorney-client privilege just got exceptioned due to the third party rule and/or crime-fraud
https://twitter.com/adamsteinbaugh/status/1333922088902676481

- The last names are really tiny, which is weird
- It came from emails already seized by the federal government in some other investigation, probably against Rudy
- This all happened in the summer
- Flynn's name would fit, but he's probably broke

Flynn is fully compromised by Erdogan. He's got financial backers.

I'm also not sure Flynn would need to funnel money into Trump's pockets for a pardon.

My mom and 3 aunt's are all in healthcare around Puget Sound or one Boise and one in SE Alaska. My fiance just started nannying for a doctor in Olympia where we're at.

On our Thanksgiving Zoom call as we went around and talked how everyone is doing, it was pretty much a role call of "Yeah Kaiser hospitals are getting pretty drat full." "Boise is the fullest it's ever been." "Peninsula is not looking good." The worst though is the doctor in Olympia, apparently he's holding the phone for patients last video calls with their families and they are sending patients that are stable to Oregon hospitals apparently. Ancedotal, but, his estimate of survival rate once people are admitted to the ICU is around 10%.

Stay safe, stay home, review your bubble with people through honest conversation.

10% is what they told my dad is the survival rate of people on ventilators. ICU survival is higher, but if you're bad enough for a vent your chances are slim. This is, in part, because they do not vent now unless you're dire.

Reminder that Air Force One is not an individual plane. Any plane the president is flying on at the moment is AF1. There are multiple versions of the exact same plane and whichever one the president is on at the moment carries the designation. Similarly, any helicopter he's on is Marine One.

Trump can absolutely use AF1 to fly to Florida before noon on January 20th, but after noon he no longer has access or any authority over the plane or it's crew.

Any Air Force plane the president is flying on.

The helicopter that ferries him to/from the south lawn is courtesy of the Marine Corps and uses the call sign “Marine One”.

A civilian craft would be “Executive One”.

Thank you for the correction. I thought all helicopters he flew on were Marine One. So when Bush was on the Navy S-3B right before his "Mission Accomplished" speech, would that have been Navy One?

So they arrested her for having information about covid infection & death rates?

They didn't arrest her. They raided her house and took all of her equipment so they can figure out her sources and see if there's any crime they can charge her with.

If she had full-disk encryption, current case law says that she could not be compelled to provide the passphrase, correct?

I honestly don't know based on FL law offhand. I can say there are no active charges against her unless there is a warrant out for her arrest (there isn't otherwise she'd be in jail).

Twitter rumors are that the DC news bureau has already been told that the SCOTUS will deny Texas leave to file its bill of complaint today rather than waiting until Monday.

Note that this is from right wing twitter trying to figure out how this could have happened and wishing it were otherwise.

The SCOTUS is not going to hear the Texas v Pennsylvania case. I assumed they'd deny leave on Monday when they have an order issuance scheduled. Saw something a bit ago that said they're announcing denial today instead.

steve-o has been sober for a while. He's got a youtube channel and talks about his former addictions a lot. He has reaction videos of him seeing some of the poo poo he did for the first time because he was so out of it when he filmed.

Actually a question for your legal brain:

https://twitter.com/RamCNN/status/1341804240713465863?s=19

I interpret this as "here comes the pain". The legal voices I'm hearing from basically say that Dominion has a serious, no-bullshit defamation claim in a world where almost all defamation claims are bullshit. That about right?

My esteemed colleague has already responded, but let me add a little bit. Newsmax and Fox News both put segments on the air in response to the C&D letter debunking each and every dominion/smartmatic conspiracy theory.

These software companies have as close to a slam dunk defamation case as possible.

Since it was an RV, that actually makes it just as likely a gas leak inside or something versus a malicious bomb.

e: this has to be an accident. If someone had loaded an RV up with explosives, there would be OKC level damage. This was a big fireball that left a roasted RV shell behind. Someone had a gas leak.

The police have suggested it was intentional, but this still seems more like insurance fraud intentional than domestic terror intentional. If this was someone trying to do damage, well, they got things sooty and burned some trees.
