3/ Oy. I got that last one completely out of order. I’m starting here again:

Justice Engoron takes the bench.

He starts talking about non-jury trial, and he explains the background.

Engoron:

"I believe what happened here is that [AG] clearly checked off non-jury."

But Engoron says it wouldn't have mattered if Trump's team asked, bc the relief was equitable.

"It would not have helped to make a motion, nobody forgot to check off a box."

Habba: "I would like to say thank you, Your Honor."

4/
Background:

The AG's office checked the box for "Trial without jury" in their notice, and Trump's defense team did not submit a corresponding notice demanding a jury.

Putting the matter to rest, Engoron says it wouldn't have mattered. Trump would have lost any such request.

As we suspected, Netanyahu was warned: Egyptian Intelligence Minister called Netanyahu ten days before Hamas attack and warned him of "something unusual, a terrible operation" that was about to take place from Gaza.

Egyptians were "surprised by the indifference shown by Netanyahu". — Yedioth Ahranoth

@Huntn00 AMEN!

The Israeli gov is not only starving and denying medical care to 2 million Gazans, it’s announced openly and explicitly that it intends to target civilians and because of the savagery of Hamas’s attack, most of the world is supporting them unconditionally. They’ve been given carte blanche to commit war crimes. #israel #hamas #warcrimes

#Mastodon actually has 407K+ more monthly users than it thought

Open source and decentralized social network Mastodon has more users than it thought. The service, which competes with #X (formerly #Twitter) and other

"That leaves Mastodon with a total of 1.8 million monthly active users at present, an increase of 5% month-over-month and 10K servers, up 12% — a testament to Mastodon’s current upward swing at a time when the nature of X continues to remain in flux."

In Alexander vs South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP, SCOTUS will decide whether moving Black citizens around like chess pieces in mapping congressional districts was based on political affiliation or race. How can Blacks chosen political affiliation which they consider representative of their interests/rights be seen as separate from the state's history of disenfranchisement?

"Advances in AI are amplifying a crisis for human rights online. While AI technology offers exciting and beneficial uses for science, education, and society at large, its uptake has also increased the scale, speed, and efficiency of digital repression. Automated systems have enabled governments to conduct more precise and subtle forms of online censorship." #AI https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-net/2023/repressive-power-artificial-intelligence?utm_source=werd.io&utm_campaign=mastodon&utm_channel=mastodon

Reminder: if you find my (or anyone else’s) posts to be insufferably tedious, arrogant, stupid, or dull, you can protect yourself from the misery of having to read them! Mastodon has a set of secret features, available only to those who know about them, for controlling whose posts you see in your timeline. They’re called “unfollow”, “mute”, and “block”, and can be found in the menu next to each post.

But if anyone asks, you didn’t hear about them from me.

My favorite season has finally arrived! (Even if we are forcing it in the #Dallas area😝). The leaves are still green, it’s not very cool, but at least Northpark center set the vibes! #alttxt #alttext #DFW

I'm no historian, but I don't think any group that's ever starved millions of people and called them "all animals" has been remembered well.
