You’ll be hearing from my lawyer. Not to threaten litigation or anything. Just, you know, to commiserate with you about my behavior.
Customer approaches you about plan to kill ATF agents? FBI.

You carjack a motorist after fleeing the cops while trafficking drugs? Believe it or not, also FBI.

These ICE recruiting ads are getting out of control.

You All Caps like that they put you in jail. Right away. No trial, no nothing. Links, we have a special jail for links. Offensive user name: right to jail. Posting too much: jail. Not enough: jail. You are saying slurs like cisgender: jail. We have the best shitposters in the world because of jail.

The Sixth Circuit explains why failing grades are hard to turn into first amendment cases. The court holds that unless plaintiff can demonstrate the teacher's reasons are pretexts, plaintiff loses.

Things come to a head when Corlett submits a "Hot for Teacher" essay which starts off about a different teacher, but then goes into discussing his current teacher, the one grading the class:

In Corlett, a 55 year old student enrolled at Oakland Community College. As part of his English class, he was required to keep a "Writer's Daybook." Corlett is a kind of a perv:

Happy Thanksgiving Ken.

Remember folks,
If Ken hasn’t seen the RICO thing, tag him with it.
If you’re not sure if Ken has seen the RICO thing, tag him with it.
If you know Ken has already seen the RICO to a degree of metaphysical certainty, tag him with it.

I can't believe Halligan failed to confirm her appointment. Rookie mistake.

These were the works, which I inadvertently did not attach to the first skeet.

In the end, the jury found for the defendant. And 10yo sulked and said juries are stupid.

Wife was given truncated and hastily prepared jury instructions. 10yo continued to try to argue her case while jury instructions were read.

Here is what it looks like when you click on her “joined” date.

For this to be real:

1. The UI would have had to have been temporarily showing everything.

2. The “Russia” screenshot would have needed to be taken and posted before she did.

3. Someone put a lot of effort into tiling videos.

There still is a clickable UI. It’s on the web browser version. But what it shows when you click on your own profile shows more info than when you click on someone else’s. The screenshot looks like what it does when you click on your own profile.

2. She posted the screenshot showing Russia.

Careful Ken. This skeet has far too many words in common with this all-time classic LawTwitter tweet.

Proof of Ken's culpability.

And casually violating RPC 4.2 by replying to an opposing party’s tweet about a case where his client lost.

Someone made a comment about the Lord of the Rings, and it made me wonder whatever happened to Paul Davis “Gondor has no king” pro-Trump lawyer. Looks like he is anti-tariff, anti-National guard deployments, anti-vaccine, anti-Israel, and anti-Ukraine.

Hard to plot on a political compass graph.

Yikes! The magistrate judge (or their clerk) makes the rookie mistake of not actually applying the redactions before saving the file.

This is beautifully poetic. Who said that love is dead?

Contrary to popular belief, the cows are not interacting more with whites. They are afraid of the @kenwhite.bsky.social's, perhaps overestimating the White's direct danger to them.
