Also in case anyone needs a reminder, Judge Immergut is not some radical lefty. She was on Ken Starr's team, famously deposed Monica Lewinsky, and was appointed by Trump. The difference between her and the Fed DOJ lawyers who just argued in front of her is that she lives in reality.

Looks like the proliferation of smart, wearable technology and the implications for neural data privacy hit the radar of the U.S. Senate right before the shut down. 3 U.S. Senators have sponsored Senate Bill 2925 which,

Jeffries: "The next time you have something to say about me, don't cop out through a racist and fake AI video. When I'm back in the Oval Office, say it to my face."

The military speeches today are really bad and dangerous. They are not what people interested in contesting elections would sound like.

Representing Lisa Cook is the *fourth* time that elite conservative lawyer Paul Clement has stood up to Trump in 2025. Earlier:

โ€”repโ€™d WilmerHale against Trumpโ€™s unconstitutional EO

โ€”repโ€™d Wisconsin judge arrested by ICE

โ€”hired by Judge Dale Ho to submit brief re DOJโ€™s dirty deal with Eric Adams

OMG game changer! I just discovered the "citations" section of Westlaw's preferences. No more parallel citations to L.Ed and S.Ct.! You can also specify italics instead of underlining and add quotation marks before and after selected text you want to quote.

If there is one brief that will spook John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett from doing something that will disrupt the economy and their stock portfolios, it is this one.

(The Supreme Court doesn't deal in law much these days, so arguments about real-world consequences can help.)

Imagine if the Prenda Law attorneys used debt collection laws instead of copyright laws to file bogus lawsuits. This dispute would be the result. Appellate court not surprisingly affirms the sanctions. Handwritten letters written by law firm attached to the opinion.

The wristband can reveal intentions to communicate, mental states tied to subtle movements, or potential medical conditions. At the moment, there are no specialized neural privacy laws at the federal level in the US or in the EU.

The collection and use of neural data is the equivalent of Facebook collecting information on browsing to "serve" you with "better" ads. Neural data is the next frontier of liberties that needs to be protected from big business and government.

Yesterday, @wsj.com moved to dismiss on 3 seemingly iron-clad grounds: The article was (1) true; (2) not defamatory; & (3) lacks any whiff of โ€œactual malice.โ€ Itโ€™s true in that it only describes a note โ€œbearing Trumpโ€™s nameโ€ & includes his denials in the subhead & in three ยถs of text.

The judge struck the original complaint and gave the President's lawyers another chance to file a version that is half as long as the original.

We need some memes showing SCOTUS Corrupter John Roberts with devil horns. He will go down in history as an evil destroyer of a pretty good country, in my opinion.
