My favorite part about this movie is that the underlying crime that sets off everything is a securities fraud.

Not disputing he also seems to be kinda a dick!

I mean, in fairness, he did cover the crime beat for over a decade and wrote a major nonfiction book about homicide detectives?

Greek olive oil > Italian.

The cost of living, though…

You also probably could turn the Titanic around overnight?

I thought this was performance art.

Yeah, the kids are getting priced out of Westbrook, it’s racially diverse, and a bit grungy but in a good way. Or so they tell me.

Lewiston is hip now. Haven’t you heard?

Die Another Day: The Law of Assisted Suicide

I think he’s in an awkward spot and wants to keep the focus on Hegseth. He probably worries that blaming Bradley will just help Hegseth. Is he right? I don’t know. But I get the conundrum.

My first concert. And damn does he put on a good show.

“This legislation will…ensure federal workers receive back pay, as required by a law I got passed in 2019” really encapsulates this deal.

Trading for something you already have.

It’s also an odd thing to say when the most famous dinner in Christianity was (or closely resembled) a Passover Seder?

Also, even the most “open border” does not = no border.

Also how is a rebellion ever “ordinary”?

“You know, it is your standard, garden-variety rebellion, not one of those obscure kinds.”

More like imagining an even more absurd future to find humor in the present.

“Turns out we were wrong. Oops. Remand with instructions to dismiss as moot.”

Wait till the Court starts to decide that their expedited decision had the effect of mooting the appeal.

Not just that, though, right? Life tenure appears to be less of a savior the higher you go.

I think it also helps that, even during Trump I, many if not most district court nominees were uncontroversial, experienced, and respected attorneys.

That and, you know, district courts deal with…facts.

It is easy to throw around bc nullification is observationally equivalent to acquittal.

The more concrete distinction might be nullification isn’t as effective in a grand jury. Unlike an acquittal, Prosecutors can always back with more/better evidence.

This DOJ rarely does & thats telling.

This is terrible news.

BDO Denied Chance to Bring Auditor Liability Case to High Court The US Supreme Court on Monday denied a petition from BDO USA P.C. to determine the circumstances under which accounting firms can be held liable for shoddy audits.

Good news and the right decision.

The Mets fan theory of economics.

Evergreen rule.

This view also assumes static negotiating positions. Why shouldn’t Dems respond to the WH’s actions as raising the price of cooperation?

Tit for tat.

Dear Mr. Adams: Thanks for your letter inviting me to join the committee of the Arts and Sciences for Eisenhower. I must decline, for secret reasons. Sincerely, E.B. White.

This E.B. White letter comes to mind.
