The Japanese earthquake warning system NERV
has moved from #Twitter aka #X to #Mastodon. Its developer Gehirn Web Services made its departure announcement on August 7. Japanese can no longer receive its earthquake warning on X. #China #Musk must be crying. 🤣

3/ UPDATE:

#Chutkan has *granted* #Trump's motion to vacate

Hello #Lee (#TropicalStormLee, soon to be #HurricaneLee). Currently forecast to become at least a Category 4 storm. #hurricane #HurricaneSeason

This is another reason the student loan racket is such a clusterfuck. Every time one side comes up with something helpful, the obstructionist GOP #PartyOfStupid wants to fuck it up for everybody. In these #HardTimes it adds to the limbo and pain of borrowers, but you know the GOP, the cruelty is the point. Because heaven forbid...

2/ MORE via Kyle:

It appears that prosecutors have alerted Judge #Chutkan to Trump's "daily" public statements and that may be what's at issue here.

Quite the cloud formation here tonight at sunset. Tried a vertical panoramic shot on the phone, worked out pretty well I think. #sunset #sky #scotland

STFU, Team Trump. We're sick of this crap.

JUST IN: #Trump team complains that prosecutors filed a motion under seal without consulting them.

Prosecutors respond that they did consult on the filing, just not on the decision to file it under seal, a process laid out by the court. #legal #TrumpIndictment

Via @Brandi_Buchman:

Kelly consults a statute and declines to enhancement for obstruction of justice charge; He notes offense level 36; crim history category 6, puts Tarrio at guideline sentencing range of 324 mos-405 months, or 27 YEARS to 33 years.
Govt asked for 33. #ProudBoys #legal #Jan6

Max fine is 250K & Tarrio's fine will fall somewhere b/w $40-250k.

Not heard sentence yet, please note. We have just heard range. There is a bit more to get thru before we get to actual sentencing.

never, Never, NEVER, NEVER EVER

I have zero expectations anymore.

Via Scott MacFarlane:

Judge Tim Kelly is now talking about the "terrorism" enhancement in #Tarrio's sentencing guidelines.

Judge has included the terrorism factor in prior #ProudBoys cases, but he's varied downward *significantly* from the terror-enhanced sentencing guidelines in those cases

👉 Defense: "My client is no terrorist. My client is a misguided patriot"👈 🤦‍♀️ #legal

7 months after the #shooting, investigators interviewed the #NYPD officers who shot their weapons.

But investigators did NOT challenge those #officers when their accounts differed from what was captured on video, according to recordings obtained by ProPublica.
