    How it started...How it's going thread

    There is no "bigger picture" than the US Government having to comply with the Constitution that founded it. There is no "bigger picture" than our courts ruling solely based upon "the law and Constitution". And a U.S. Senator expressly saying that there is such a "bigger picture" is infuriating...

    That's only when the other side does it.

    That’s why I responded in the way that I did. Wanted to be very careful to not come off as dismissive or insulting. Plenty of people, including lawyers, are unfamiliar with the Rules of SCOTUS. For instance, SCOTUS has their own Supreme Court Bar Association where you have to apply to be...

    Not sure if this was sarcasm or not. He can’t argue before the Supreme Court. He’s not a lawyer. He sat in the audience, didn’t say a word and didn’t have his phone because Supreme Court rules prohibit phones in the courtroom. Reportedly sat in the front row of the public gallery. News...

    Yep. Medicated to the gills. Slurring words. This isn’t an update on the war, it’s a really bad sales job. I ain’t buying.

    US continues to go backward...

    Just finished listening to oral arguments in Trump v. Barbara (birthright citizenship case) before US SCOTUS. My impression is that there is a solid majority (Brown, Roberts, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Gorsuch) that will hold Trump's executive order unconstitutional or at least unlawful under 8 USC...

    My comments on social media right after having listened to the oral argument on the birthright citizenship case before SCOTUS this morning: Just finished listening to oral arguments in Trump v. Barbara (birthright citizenship case) before US SCOTUS. My impression is that there is a solid...

    I've literally had defense counsel argue that a 1 in 62 septillion chance of a random match could lead to "reasonable doubt" or argue that because those chances are for an sample from a "random unrelated" person.....how can we know what the chances are that a person related to the Defendant...

    My follow up question when they throw out a number like 62 septillion is always, "I became a lawyer because I'm not so good with math. how many zeros follow the 62 to be 62 septillion? Then they tell me 24 zeros. Then if I feel I have an intellectually thick jury, I'll break out the easel and...

    Defense lawyers often try to confuse the issues when it comes to forensic reports. You see this in DNA a whole lot too.....suprisingly. If they can get one single juror to misinterpret what a criminalist testifies to, they at least have a shot at a hung jury. Furthermore, the criminalists are...

    And inconclusive finding (rather than an exclusionary finding) in ballistics examinations isn’t as big of a problem as you might think. The ability to make a “match” from ballistic markings depends on many factors including the size of the bullet fragment being used. It’s the difference...

    Middle East

    I would question how "diminished" the regime actually is if it has shown it can chokepoint the Strait of Hormuz even in face of a war with Israel and the US to the point that the US vacates the war. The truth is there are no good, or even decent, options once the critical error of starting a...

    In other words, the oligarchy he serves and the cultists who serve him.
