Two questions: 1. Can the President pardon someone a judge finds in criminal contempt? 2. Can someone explain the provision of the GQP’s Big Bogus Bill that bars federal judges from holding someone in contempt? Thanks!

And the wannabe dictator has now proposed socialist ownership of TikTok by the U.S. as the solution.

Georgia appeals court sides with Trump in affirming dismissal of 6 state charges

What are the odds that this precedent will ever be used to dismiss charges against anyone else?

In a preview of how the wannabe dictator’s vanity will Trump the rule of law the next 4 years, GQP Speaker Johnson has caved to his desire to raise the flag to full height for his coronation, disrespecting the flag and violating s 7(m) of the Flag Code.

Disrespectful, self-centered, and disgusting.

I just found a digital picture of the prank our wedding party pulled 40 years ago. Note that the flower girl wasn’t in on it because they didn’t trust her to keep the secret. Thanks for the picture, @rhenak.bsky.social !

A Virtual Reward geocache to hide, but must be submitted by mid-Jan. Had a great idea for a D4.5 T1 cache, which would make it one of only four such in the U.S., but the public property manager has put off deciding on permission for two months, so I have to do a more mundane cache elsewhere. Bummer!

It seems obvious to me that Trump’s insistence on extending or abolishing the debt ceiling now is to avoid voters making the connection when the GQP has to raise the debt ceiling in March to cover the consequences of his tax giveaways to the wealthy.

So, where do you land? Star Trek? Star Wars? The Orville? Firefly? Battlestar Galactica? Something else?

Yes, . . . , no. I probably would not suggest playing this video for LEOs who stop you while you are geocaching. #Geocaching
If you ever get stopped by the police while #geocaching then just show them this quick video and you will be on your way. USA only.

Spent last weekend judging the Chicagopex Stamp Show in Itasca, IL. We had a great jury of ten judges and nearly 100 exhibits.

Congratulations to all the exhibitors! The awards list is available at www.chicagopex.org/pdf-document...

Another case about a missing Oxford comma. Does “trim, cut and remove at any and all times such trees, limbs, underbrush or other obstructions” mean that “remove” only applies to plants that have been “cut”? The Ohio Supreme Court says “no,” so the utility can use herbicides in its easement.

So, should Judge Merchan dismiss Trump’s 34 fraud convictions, stay the sentencing until after Trump leaves the White House, or impose sentence but stay imposition until Trump is no longer President, if that ever happens? #AppellateSky

Fact checking that shouldn’t be necessary: “Kennedy has repeatedly — and falsely — suggested that the human immunodeficiency virus is not the cause of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. The discovery of the connection between HIV and AIDS garnered a Nobel Prize in 2008 and is established science.”

So, are you a fan of the Oxford Comma, or a hater?

What Is the Oxford Comma (And Why Is It Debated)?
This tiny punctuation mark has been the source of heated debate for over a century, but whether you use it or not comes down to your personal writing style.
