They are receiving a reasonable fear intvw—and we would have serious privacy concerns about where this would take place—but how will they have access to counsel? How are they going to learn about conditions in South Sudan? The State Dept is warning Americans not to go there!

Govt—prepare an affirmation on penalty of perjury about how you are notifying everyone involved in deportation of the PI.

100% chance they use the entire 30 minutes to come back with "Uhh, yeah, my guy said it was OK" without any further substance

DOJ (Elianis Perez): We understand court does not agree that 24 hours is enough. But these people know what the system requires because they have been through the system. They know they can express fear, and they didn't.
Judge: I don't agree. PI has been violated. Now we'll consider how to remedy.

"The department's actions in this case are unquestionably violative of this court's order."
Will leave for another day whether this is criminal contempt.
"Based on what I have learned, I don't see how anybody could say these individuals had a meaningful opportunity to object."

That said, isn't it high time Lara Croft pulls a modern Carmen Sandiego and starts repatriating stolen artifacts? I'd play it.

I was 29 years old when I realized that the firemen do not build the fire station.

She maybe passed for lib coded in season 1, in that she almost balked at the first sign Luthen was employing violence to achieve his ends.
Season 2 Mon has more spine and bona fides than anyone I've ever had the opportunity to vote for.

Out here like "Who cares about consent of the governed?! What about the consent of the governors?"

@darmstadtium.bsky.social There was a 2-week long news cycle where Democrats and their media outlets attempted to publicly shame Jon Stewart for daring to comment on Biden's accelerating senility.
3 weeks later he was out, dooming his replacement without time to campaign as anything but understudy.

"It's only harm if the Israeli army physically uses the computer to bludgeon people to death"
feels a lot like "it's not a bribe unless there's quid pro quo"

Can confirm. Best wedding/reception venue I've ever been to was Philadelphia's Mütter Museum, which seems equal parts haunted hotel, graveyard and wax museum.

50,000 since October. Easily clears 100,000 if you consider the entire duration of the Israeli apartheid against Palestinians.

You denigrate my worth. Please not place me and the harm I'm experiencing above anyone else's pain. I am not your rhetorical pawn

Imagine two rooms full of children. One has an active shooter inside, while the other room is having all of its appliances downgraded to lead and asbestos.
Same level of threat?
comment in response to
post
Both are horrible and need to stop, but the moral injury of hundreds of thousands of specific Palestinian lives that are now over is entirely different than the hypothetical, yet unrealized cost of cutting science.
What horse do you have in this race, man? What's the goal of your participation?
comment in response to
post
I am a fired scientist, but I disagree with your equivalency.
Weapons destroy human lives and infrastructure irrevocably. The cuts to science can and will shorten lives on an aggregate level, but the cuts themselves are yet reversible in a way an exploded bomb is not. Both bad, one permanent.

If Jerry moved ten blocks away, he'd find out that he accidentally moved across the hall from Kramer's smuggling den.

Even tolerates the fact that Kramer brings Newman into his life. This is an interesting read

Honestly the time between stream and VOD is beneficial, at least for me. Gives me time for the memory to fade so I can be surprised all over again.

Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants.
Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. 2/3

How hard is it as a journalist to include the context that this "definition" changed within the last 2 years?
He's scolding people as though what's true today was, is and will always be true -- to do that at all, let alone during this era, is disinformation. Shame on him and NYT

So what about the federal ethics regulations that forbid most federal employees from receiving or giving a gift greater than $15.
Suppose they're all cool to just ignore that? There's no quid pro quo, just a $15+ gift.
At least admit the double standards, you hack.

Imagine stating something that was only established in legal precedent last year as if everyone who dislikes bribery is a willful fool.
People know what bribery is. It's not their folly if they remember things from before the death of truth. It's yours for eating up corruption like it's sweet honey
