“The JAG at Southern Command specifically expressed concern that strikes against people on boats in the Caribbean Sea and the eastern Pacific Ocean…could amount to extrajudicial killings, the six sources said, and therefore legally expose service members involved in the operations.”

The case nachmanoff directed the parties to consider permits the indictment to be dismissed without prejudice based on a test about what the grand jury actually found and actually intended. That’s what we probably will be looking at.

The law on the Halligan failure to present the actual indictment to the GJ may let the DOJ wriggle out. But her misstatements to the grand jury on fundamental constitutional matters are going to be big trouble I think. DOJ just says it’s harmless error analysis. But hard to see harmlessness here.

BIG NEWS: Trump says he has signed the bill to release the Epstein Files. Now all eyes are on how he and the Department of Justice handle the release.

I posted Trump’s unhinged screed announcing he’s signed the Epstein files but it contains so many lies that I deleted my post and will just tell you that Trump announced on social media he has signed the Epstein files

Pleasure to be on @jaketapper.bsky.social w/ guest host @pamelabrowncnn.bsky.social to discuss the gobsmacking moment in court when the DOJ revealed the Grand Jury never even saw the operative indictment.

To recap: My law firm represented Black and Latino voters in striking down Texas' new congressional map.

The dissenting opinion mentions George Soros 17 times and me and my law firm 3 times (all about how connected to Soros I allegedly am). I have never seen anything like it.
In a remarkable and deeply unconventional dissent, U.S. Circuit Judge Jerry E. Smith unleashed a blistering and bizarre attack on his fellow judges after a federal court struck down Texas’ unconstitutional racial gerrymander. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Basic DOj argument: so there were a lot of mistakes. Still can’t give over GJ materials

From the DOJ filing just in: “the grand jury coordinator returned to the grand jury room and presented the corrected indictment to the grand jury for person and the deputy for person.“
So presumably, they wanted full grand jury

And just like that, the Epstein files are now part of an ongoing investigation. Certainly can’t release them NOW. Nope, too bad.

"If there’s a bright spot it’s that media outlets now realize that paying Trump off is risky. ABC, which give his presidential library $16m after Stephanopoulos called him an adjudicated rapist — he’s actually an adjudicated sexual abuser — finds itself back in the crosshairs" — @lizdye.bsky.social
CNN shows that when media orgs fight Trump, they win

MacCALLUM: You're implying that Trump might do something they wouldn't want to uphold. What are you talking about?

CROW: The protests at Lafayette Square where he said, 'Can't you just shoot them in the legs'

MacCALLUM: That's not an order. That's a comment

CROW: That's coming from the president

Fox Business credulously reports that Saudi Arabia is pushing its investment into the US "to $1 trillion." The entire size of the Saudi economy is $1 trillion. How stupid are these people and/or how stupid do they think their viewers are?
