  1. The poor jury is waiting and the judge is filibustering. He certainly has a lot of opinions on meta issues.
  2. Potential Brady violation (deprivation of due process for the Defendant). https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/brady_rule https://www.yalelawjournal.org/pdf/260_waifagsn.pdf (Remedies for Brady violation)
  3. The videos are already in evidence. The Monday Defense motion to dismiss based on the failure to provide HD footage is under advisement.
  4. The judge has a case of Incipient Verbal Diarrhea.
  5. So no support at 59? Damn. How does one trade on the volatility of crypto?
  6. It's an interesting psychological phenomenon. People know it isn't true, but it heightens their interest so willingly choose to act as if the story is real. Wasn't a key part of the slender man tale a murder in Wisconsin of a young girl? On brand, I suppose.
  7. The daily mail link has nothing to do with the jumpkick man. Stop Q'ing up Surly.
  8. Isn't there already a Crypto political thread? Use it. ________________ Back to BTC, is there support at 59?
  9. That's not the jumpkick man issue. The jumpkick man was withheld story comes from a radio talk show host in Wisconsin. https://newstalk1130.iheart.com/featured/common-sense-central/content/2021-11-16-the-disturbing-story-of-the-rittenhouse-cases-mysterious-jump-kick-man/ "The Dan O'Donnell Show" can now report exclusively that Jump Kick Man is a 40-year-old Black male from Kenosha with an extensive criminal record who was at the time of the Rittenhouse shootings on probation following a conviction for domestic violence battery. He faced a maximum sentence of nine months in jail, but less than two months before he kicked Rittenhouse, he accepted a plea deal that netted him 12 months' probation. The following year, he violated the terms of his probation and was sentenced to seven months in jail. This story is being promoted by Q-friendly websites like Tiger Droppings, and apparently Surly now. https://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/o-t-lounge/rittenhouse-jump-kick-man-has-been-identified/99625106/
  10. It's a perspective to consider when examining history of systems in scholarly work. It was used as a lens to view legal systems (scalable) in legal theory originally. Cultural conservatives call it COMMUNISM!!! As used today, it is a conservative tactic to spook the sleepwalking herd. They are afraid of what is in the imaginary CRT box.
  11. Public/Private independent commission on sensible gun safety laws with recommendations to the legislature for enactment is more efficient. He would win if he emphasized the O'Rourke. The Texas Scots love their bog jumper kinfolk.
  12. Nothing much happening on the China Front. Biden and Xi met in an emergency meeting Monday night in and effort to calm the road to war. That's a positive - if you are one of those Americans who doesn't like seeing US cities facing missile attacks at any moment. Just another day in the office, I suppose. If you are one of those who have war lust. This pause allows our diplomates and The President to lay out our grievances. We fought WWII in the China-Burma-India Theater to save China and her people from aggressive imperialism. They have become what they hated. State capitalism is a hell of a drug, I suppose. Our sore spots with China - with less drama and more facts - in the link. Reuters reporting on the US-China-Taiwan dangerous flare up - the causes: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/factbox-top-pain-points-between-us-and-china-as-xi-biden-meet/ar-AAQI8YX WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden will hold an online meeting on Monday with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, the most extensive leader-level talks between the two nations under the Biden administration. Officials on both sides have played down expectations for specific outcomes, amid an increasingly fractious relationship. Among the contentious issues are: Taiwan China's ramp up of nuclear weapons and missiles Trade Tech Winter Olympics boycott by US Pandemic cooperation needed from China China's Belt and Road economic sphere v. US and G7's BBBW (Containment of aggressor) Read it all at the link. There doesn't seem to be a paywall - for now. It's a quick summary that will get you up to speed the wacky world we live in. War is failure.
  13. I read Twitter rejecting crypto caused this downward leg. Your explanation make more sense to me. Thanks.
  14. The data and the tools confirm his read. I don't believe he is using monetary policy to keep that pump flowing. Supply lines have an opportunity to smooth out - and should. (cost-push inflation). Remember, he is a respected republican pick. He's not a maverick. As for the $120 billion a month given to the financial markets, reducing that amount to $105 billion certainly should have ripple effects. It's a deliberate brake on inflation. If it has no effect on inflation, we know that free money is feeding overstuffed coffers (and asset bubbles). This first $15 billion reduction in the flow may be priced in to the markets addicted to its presence. Kudos to those who profited by following the Fed. The wealthy certainly did - as designed - to recompense them for the Fed forcing them to move higher on the risk scale. Snowflakes everywhere.
  15. Most Americans are sleepwalking. Reminds me of the effects one would see from Soma in Huxley's Brave New World. . . . that second dose of soma had raised a quite impenetrable wall between the actual universe and their minds. ______________________________________________________________ I highly recommend the 60 Minutes Australia linked above. First and foremost, the tone from the CCP Mouthpiece oozes belligerence. Remember the Golden Rule when listening and processing Chinese State Media, they project what they fear and they are cringe (same as it ever was). This CCP mouthpiece threatens Australia with nuclear Armageddon because of the subs we sold then. And then he states how the world order will be if Australia bends the knee. The reward, China will not target Australian cities for destruction in a CCP invasion of Taiwan. That is not helpful if one wants to avoid war. It's raw aggression and hubris. Second, the big worry for our allies is whether the US will go to Taiwan's aid. I have no doubt we would repel any attack on Taiwan. That is automatic. The Chinese know we have weapons they know nothing about that are specifically created for that battlespace. The risk of defense is attacks on US cities and our allies who join the Taiwanese defense. The ultimate risk is thermonuclear Armageddon. At this moment in this dance towards armed conflict, China is the initial aggressor.
  16. 100% incorrect. Initial aggressor cannot claim self-defense was the argument. If you kill as the initial aggressor, you have to do the time for the crime. It was a tactical mistake to say he should just take a beating. Poor lawyering. The argument is counter-productive, as @Nicole44 pointed out.
  17. Most will assume Texas white men are racist. If you have a thick accent and wearing Carhart, it's almost a guarantee. (It's not fair, I know, but it is what it is.) Some of those who assume you are racist will also assume you a white race hero because you are a white man from Texas. These are the dangerous ones. No one should be talking politics while hunting, camping or fishing. Fuck off with that shit. Seriously. It ruins trips.
  18. Drudge is blasting this as breaking news. We started breaking up with China under Obama with the Pivot, Trump lit the flames, and we are creeping towards a war footing. China and Russia are adding pressure, in our dumb as fuck brandon moment. This will feed the blood lust for war (and all of the accompanying risks that flow from the ignorant blood lusters). As for China and Russia - back the fuck off. We have a bunch of trigger happy Kyles and we are putting them on planes with genetically engineered snakes (and deadly self=replicating nanobots). Fuck around and find out.
  19. To address the seriousness of the question, whether intended by the OP or not: We are in a Cold War with China over economic issues that raise national economic security issues. In turn, national economic security issues raise national security issues (as permitted by the Constitution). For instance, the primary rationale for militarily controlling sea lanes is to protect commerce. That's the Constitutional basis for the size of our military and its functions. There is nothing ignoble about this mission. The original idea is that the US would prosper as the hub of commerce for the world. That's not us anymore. You see we sold them everything they needed to replace us as the center of commerce. They have or will sometime this month. So China becomes them. The war drums are beating from every side. Russia showing off satellite killing missiles. China flexing. The easiest way for "them" to win is to stoke civil war in the U.S. According to US Joint Cyber Command head under Obama and Trump, this was the threat that keeps him up at night. Looks like "they" are winning. What should we do? Perhaps stop leaning in to a civil war that only aids our enemy. War is failure.
  20. If Ted Cruz is for term limits, that is all I need to know to oppose them.
  21. Step No. 1, Xi kills dogs. China Left in Shock Following Brutal Killing of Corgi During Covid-19 Disinfection Video of epidemic-prevention workers beating pet dog prompts outcry in country sticking with ‘Covid Zero’ policy WARNING - description of brutal dog killing in spoiler from the WSJ. It's disturbing. Savage.
