Librarian. Product owner. Work for a library company as a product owner. Other things. All opinions and snark are my own.
Why would Currie's statement that the EDVA gets to pick the next USAtty be cause for appeal? It's literally the law, and while not specifically requested, is the only legal path forward.

Clarifying: the above is a discharge petition.

If 218 members of the House vote to do so, they can force a bill out of committee and to the floor for a vote. This is the same process they're using to try to force release of the Epstein files.

Quakescrolling? Or Wolfensteinscrolling, perhaps?

Quick librarian hot take: it appears that this use might constitute fair use under US copyright law based on the 4-point balancing test, HOWEVER, "fair use" is still infringement. It's just not punishable. TL;DR: it's always best to ask permission.

Unless Shohei Ohtani was somehow on the Cubs in 2016 in game 7 of the World Series, then no.

As a matter of law, this created a demonstrably uneven playing field where a compelling state interest was not, in fact, applied in a truly neutral manner (which is what is required to survive first amendment scrutiny.)
Yes, I read the full ruling. The judge isn't wrong, in this case. /2

For context, the change in the law applies specifically to what is said in the confessional (outside that, priests do have an obligation to report.) The judge ruled the way he did because it was demonstrably anti-Catholic in that other similarly-situated people with privileged info were exempted /1

I'm curious, can Trump unilaterally fire someone appointed under 28 USC 546(d) and then insert someone of his choosing, or is the appointment immovable until a permanent US Atty is confirmed by the Senate?

Probably unrelated, but the SS would tell their victims they were going for "delousing" ("Entlausung") when they were putting them in the gas chambers.

1. Go in person
2. Go to different sports. One or more will speak to you.
3. If one or more speak to you, keep going back.
4. Look for participants who are particularly interesting for reasons important only to you.
5. Team hat or shirt helps the whole "one of us" vibe.

Now I'm getting flashbacks to CRS and the annual Conference on the Charismatic Renewal. And the 1975 conference in Rome. And the split with Ann Arbor. And a flood of other memories. Jeez. Not a trip down memory lane I particularly relish.

That's fair

The New Orleans branch wasn't established till 1986, by which point my family had been expelled. I knew about living at Ranaghan's house.

Done. I emailed a couple years ago and didn't hear anything back.

I know Andrew Zwernemin is a DeCelles toadie and drove Trinity DC into the ground. I have no idea what's going on in Minneapolis, but I think they're also DeCelles loyalists. The irony is not lost on me. But he's basically regressed back to the early sheep.

I didn't know if they were still local; I thought they had sold their house and moved to Virginia. I do know that when DeCelles staged his coup, there was a large exodus, and that PoP at this point is basically the brainwashed loyalists.

That said, I'd love to compare notes. I've tried a couple times to look for other survivors but have had little to no luck on that front.

She's not released from the covenant. More like, no longer attending, no longer paying dues, no longer really paying attention. My source heard it from someone who is mutual friends with Jesse B., and heard it straight from him.
