@gleick Here’s my thread explaining Judge Boasberg’s opinion and order.
He will proceed to identify specific individuals who have caused executive branch noncompliance with his orders. He will conduct fact finding , requiring sworn declarations, and if necessary, live witness testimony under oath.

The problem with christianity is that it traps people in a perpetual state of childish helplessness... shifting all responsibility to god, declaring that whatever happens is 'god’s will,' and branding any attempt at independent thought or self-determination as sinful hubris. The only acceptable posture becomes one of submission: get in line, kneel humbly before the church, the bible, the deity - and relinquish your own agency, capability, and responsibility.
