The last one, the brief (joint memorandum) is the key document. Haven't looked at it yet, although in one of the affidavits I saw a few lines arguing that because they are authorized under Delaware law to write surplus line (non rate-regulated specialty insurance) policies in any other state, it do...

There is no question that he slept with her. There is no question that he paid her to keep quiet about it. The defendant has repeatedly and explicitly denied both of these allegations. The defendant's intent and state of mind are key to this trial. This is not even illegal, unless it is done to fur...

I don't quite understand why Stormy Daniels is testifying. There is no question that he slept with her. There is no question that he paid her to keep quiet about it. This is not even illegal, unless it is done to further a criminal conspiracy. As I understand it, the trial is about violating busines...

If he says he was exposed, give him a test. If it's neg, make him wear a mask in court for a few days until he has 3-4 days of neg tests (which he will bc he'll have lied about it). Problem solved. I believe that most courtrooms are equipped with audio/video equipment to allow an unruly defendant t...

I like the way Judge Merchan politely points out that it stinks for Trump to complain about publicity when he enthusiastically generated much of it himself, often immediately outside the courthouse. True. That sounds a little like a corollary to the old joke about the guy who, charged with murderin...

I agree with her. She is not full of sh*t. That implies that there is a part of her that isn't sh*t. She isn't full of sh*t, she IS sh*t. 100 percent, unadulterated SH*T!

Don't want to jinx it, but the dotard can whine his favorite phrase "You're Fired" to his lawyers and get a delay. He can even do that Monday morning. Let's hope his ego doesn't let that happen. There's a rumor that a team of commando sausage dogs arrived in NYC, but there's been absolute...

I've lost track, but I believe that the ethics investigation involving Gaetz is still active, is it not?

I started to read it but I couldn't continue.

She writes about "minibus" legislation. I've never heard that term before. I've heard of omnibus legislation. Is that what she means?

Question: the elections are getting near by that point in time. Will it be in favour of Teh Donald that a trial will be happening in summer? Even if SCOTUS rules at the end of June, some down time will still be needed for a trial to ramp up. And there undoubtedly be further attempts to delay. My WA...

I saw a Cybertruck in the wild yesterday, for the first time. Its official. The Cybertruck has taken over the title of the Ugliest Production Vehicle in the History of the Universe, from the late, unlamented Pontiac Aztec. It really does look like something some DIY'er, with extermely limited metalw...

CSPAN had some views from the International Space Station. It showed an enormous shadow over part of the US.

It was really weird. It reminded me of the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, except that that is not a shadow.

My wife and I had a perfect viewing spot on our south facing deck. At about 2:25, using the "eclipse" glasses, you could see the moon start to take a bite out of the sun. There was no outward manifestation at that time. The sunlight seemed as bright as ever. By 2:45, the moon had covered a...

I have been following the weather forecast along the path especially NE Ohio. We used to live there and still have a lot of friends. As of now the forecast is mostly cloudy.

The fact that you have to ask that question, and the possibility that it is, in fact, real, tells us all we need to know about emptygee.

Back in 2008, there was a ballot measure to rename a sewage treatment plant near San Francisco after then-president George W. Bush.

The measure failed by a large margin.
