2/ Van Grack, cont'd:

If Judge Cannon's analysis is accurate, then in terrorism or espionage cases DOJ would be required to provide classified info to terrorists and spies in order to prosecute them. That in essence would be graymail, which is what CIPA was intended to avoid.

Here's Ghazi Hamad, the deputy foreign minister for #Hamas, making their objective clear. Spoiler: It is the annihilation of #israel

Wooden skyscrapers?

"The 20-story, $110 million Sara center in subarctic Sweden was built almost entirely of prefabricated wood products, delivered from the sawmill to the construction site the day they were needed, and put together by a few dozen technicians with high-speed screwdrivers, working their way through boxes containing 550,000 steel screws.

The engineered wood rivals the strength of steel and concrete."

I'd bet it's earthquake-resilient too.

@flexghost Nevermind Neo Nazis.... The actual historical Nazis were Christian.

"With God On Our Side" was emblazoned right there on the uniforms... Beside the skulls.....

My old friend Christopher Hitchens is still right....

1/...Via Joyce Vance:

In #documents case #Florida #Cannon ruled her existing order re discovery of classif material will remain in place. But Trump still benefits from delay, which he'll use to argue for...more delay.

Via Brandon Van Grack

Potentially very problematic. Wd appear to require DOJ to provide to defendant all classif info also provided to def's attys. That's at odds w/ how cases involving classif info handled under Classif Info Procedures Act (CIPA) #legal #TrumpIndictment

Mike Johnson’s says he can’t be full of hate because he’s a Christian

Ok.

Neo-Nazis, Westboro Baptist Church, American Nationalist Society, American Vanguard, Fight White Genocide, Proud Boys, Stormfront, State Militias, NE Minutemen, League of the South, Southern Nationalist Network, C-fam, Family Watch International, your mom, American Immigration Control Foundation…

If you believe in the value of #FirstPrinciples and adhere to #ExtremeHumanism, never be ashamed for condemning war crimes or the slaughter of innocent civilians no matter who is carrying out the atrocity.

Let those who justify brutality stare into the abyss until it stares back at them.

Biggest disappointment as a result of the Twitter diaspora: realizing how many people I interacted with who are not interested in the public good, but only in self promotion. Sigh.

@AlliFlowers
I am reminded of an old Saturday Night Live sketch in which a couple are in bed trying to have sex, but all nine Supreme Court justices are standing there telling them what they can and can't do.

Wow he got the country bumpkin serial liar Sarah Huckabeast down to a tee.😂 🤣

Happy Halloween

#Jewish #students hear #FromTheRiverToTheSea as an open call for the #eradication of #Israel, a haunting proposition given the legacy of the #Holocaust that led to Israel’s creation. The phrase has been printed on fliers & projected onto the facade of a bldg at #GWU George Washington Univ. It has been accompanied by other boilerplate like “Glory to our martyrs,” in which #JewishStudents see praise for killing Jewish #civilians, as #Hamas did earlier this month.

Just in case you didn't realize it before - there are 3 major religions in this world that all follow the same God but have different interpretations of wtf happened after they split from the original texts. Their God didn't change, they just did.

The first one decided that they're right, and no other prophets came along after their prophets.

The second one said, "we accept most of your religion but this guy showed up and he's the son of God"

The third one said, "Look, we're all brothers, that guy was cool but he wasn't the son of God. We have a new prophet and we got an updated rulebook from God and we're gonna follow that."

Now all 3 of them (plus the 4 versions of the first one, the 6 versions of the second one and 7 versions of the 3rd one) all argue about who's right - and have spent centuries letting political leaders use their faith to inspire each other to kill one another for their faith.

And there is no end in sight for this bullshit.

#Jewish #students at #CooperUnion in #NYC sheltered in a library as pro-#Palestinian demonstrators banged on the glass walls of the bldg. At a #proPalestinian protest near #Tulane, ≥2 students were #assaulted in a melee that began when someone tried to burn an #Israeli flag.
