Olivia Nuzzi's book is rage inducing (derogatory). Madiba's book is equally rage inducing (complimentary).

Petition to stop capitalizing the "i" in "AI" and just call it "Ai". When you capitalize it, it just looks like some guy named "AL". OpenAL. GenerativeAL. No. It ends now. There is only one Al, and it's Sgt. Al Powell.

Heeeee’s making a list, And killing them twice, ….

Techdirt and @mmasnick.bsky.social are invaluable resources in the current misinformation-disecosystem*. Definitely worth your support. If we donate enough, they might update their website! *can we make this a thing?

It's War Crimes Week here on LegalEagle.

Sounds like this Nuzzi character is a real Duzzi. I'm very sorry.

Gentlemen @michaelhobbes.bsky.social @notalawyer.bsky.social , I regret to inform you that it's abundantly clear what book must be next for @ifbookspod.bsky.social I'm very sorry. But I don't make the rules.

Chris's work is invaluable. And he's really tired. Please consider supporting him!

So I'm taking from this statement that the results of the MRI were massive corruption.

Aaaaaaaand we're back. youtu.be/hybL-GJov7M

Our video on all the crimes that Trump has committed (so far) contained so many crimes it broke YouTube!!!! (I'm just kidding. People were complaining about the transition sound we used. So we're taking that out and re-uploading. Check back in 30 min)

This is a great lesson in why you don't make every argument you can. Even if this were true (I have my doubts), juxtaposing it against a serious charge comically undermines it. "The Defendant committed murder...and also his shoes are untied!"

Evergreen tweet.

I'm begging you all in the media. Please read the emails for more than 2 seconds. They don't just say Trump "knew" about underage girls. THE EMAILS SAY HE PERSONALLY PARTICIPATED.

And it's THREE YEARS after the disastrous deal from Alex Acosta. They are discussing their personal knowledge in context where they think they are immune from further prosecution. This isn't an "allegation"; this is an admission by co-conspirators.

Devin, I don't think many non-lawyers understand just how "yeah, that underlying fact's 100% true" it is when you have a private email between two parties with no reason to lie discussing the implications of something they agree is a fact they both have personal knowledge of.

Let's fix the passive voice and the euphemism: "[Donald] Trump 'spent' hours with [underage female] [VICTIM][of sex trafficking] at [notorious underage female sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein's] house."

"i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump. [VICTIM] spent hours at my house with him" "hours" "spent" "hours" VICTIM "spent" HOURS VICTIM "spent" HOURS "with" TRUMP VICTIM "spent" HOURS "with" TRUMP at *Epstein's* house

"When your enemy is making one catastrophic mistake after another, interrupt them and save them from any consequences they might face." –Schumer-Tzu

This is the thing that drives me insane. Things aren't normal; this isn't politics as usual. And when you accurately describe everything this administration is doing, it's so lawless, radical, and authoritarian that *you* sound like a partisan extremist.

What’s the opposite of doomscrolling? jw

Idea for a follow up video: Did Kat Abughazaleh commit copyright infringement by clipping our video without our permission?

Legal experts agree that the indictment against me and five others is politically-motivated. Thank you @legaleagle.tv @lizdye.bsky.social for bringing attention to this case.

The hilariously inept administration tried to bully @annabower.bsky.social so we invited her on to shed some light on the whole L'Affaire du Text. youtu.be/NPtKENZwX18

AND ANOTHER THING. WHY WOULD YOU TEAR DOWN THE WHITE HOUSE BEFORE YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO REPLACE IT? It only takes a couple of days to do the demo! Even for cynical political reasons, having gash on one side and a crater on the other is going to look terrible.

This has been gnawing at me. Apart from the abject illegality, it takes *a long time* to build anything in DC let alone the (theoretically) most secure house of government in the world. AND THERE ARE NO APPROVED PLANS. There's no way this thing get's built in Trump's lifetime.

@annabower.bsky.social can you text Lindsay and ask if she thinks her use of disappearing texts (and her use of Signal, generally) complies with data preservation rules under the Federal Records Act?

Real "please dont put in the newspaper that i got mad" energy

No kings. Only frogs.

Uhhhh, given that the government is shut down and the yearly appropriations have expired, does anyone know where the funds for the Argentina bailout are coming from?

Perhaps not the most important point, but it wouldn't "beg the question," it would "raise the question."

Yes.

This is a joke, right? A parody account? We have an authoritarian prosecuting his political enemies, destroying the rule of law, subverting Congress, wrecking the economy, and, inter alia, deploying troops and masked secret police to majority-opposition party cities. FOCUS ON HEALTHCARE?????

My sister’s report from “war torn” Portland: “too many farmers markets, please send help.”

People are laughing about this, but the national security bathroom vanities is where we keep our National Strategic Petroleum Jelly Reserve.

Are you kidding me? Now we're forced to defend James Comey?

I could be wrong about this, but I can't think of cause of action that the makers of Tylenol could use to file a lawsuit against the government and even if they could file, I can't think of a way in which the government has waived immunity.

"Trump wants to [do a thing] no matter how much suffering it causes women" has a lot of explanatory power.

Fun fact: I ordered a $60 basket from Spain and then had to pay $48 dollars in tariffs C.O.D. (that's still a thing?!) directly to UPS before I could take possession.

This entire thread.

Can confirm. But they didn't even admit that we're entitled, they merely "would not oppose" ... part of it.

Has anyone done the math on how much it's costing to deploy and reassign hundreds of National Guard and federal agents to DC? Got to be in the tens of millions already, right?

Has anyone figured out how much it cost to send 20 federal agents to raid the sandwich guy’s house? jw

Literally Meal Team 6.

I think Taylor releasing her new album on the Kelce bros' podcast is the "Man Walks on The Moon" moment for new media.

The Great Man [Parts] theory of history.

Thank god. We can finally incarcerate all of those dubiously parked hot dog trucks. (Though in fairness, it looks like these DEA agents already thoroughly inspected those vendors).

It's true. Crime is so out of control in Washington DC that a violent mob stormed the Capitol, tried to hang Mike Pence, and attempted to prevent the certification of the election.

👀

Man, it’s hard to be an American right now.
