Titan Submersible Vessel
Federal whistleblower suits are a hyper-specialized area of the law. I wonder if his lawyer was up to the work. I wondered about his lawyer as well, it seemed like if he was officially under the whistleblower protection how the heck did this end up happening to him. I also attribute part of it to t...

The Independent is posting detailed summaries of testimony. I found the website a little jittery; there are at least 4 web pages of summaries, and it's a little tedious to scroll back to the beginning navigating the wealth of sometimes repetitive information is awkward and tedious.

Yabut, Trump is a brilliant strategist, don't you know. Maybe he knows something we don't know, maybe Loomer has the key to success. Is it time to panic? :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: :panic: Where is Luke aka orly_licious with our emergency plans!?!?!?

Another Shooting
So why didn't she call the police? It's best to bypass the middleman when you have an emergency. Calling the school first would be cutting out the middleman. Interesting question, but it's not clear to me that either option is obviously the better one. I wouldn't fault her for the choice she made.
