@helenalb.bsky.social my condolences friend on our collective loss of Ozzy. Please enjoy this tribute by my favorite radio station, @kexp-feed.nvm2u.com . I didn't know of his Parkinson's diagnosis until yesterday and his last concert on July 5 raised funds for research. 💔

these were our favorite activity as kids - we called them "wild cucumbers", and our wild cucumber wars were epic.

This has massive implications:

Undermining the enforcement power of the judiciary

Legislative overreach by controlling court enforcement through appropriations

Encouraging disobedience of lawful orders in high-stakes cases

In plain English, this means if a judge waives the usual bond requirement when issuing an emergency order—something #courts are allowed to do—they would be stripped of the ability to enforce it through #contempt citations.

Can anyone stop this?

> “No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an #injunction or temporary restraining order if no security was given when the injunction or order was issued...”

So interested! In the LOI, should we specify where the in-person meeting would be held? or would that be sorted when budget is requested?
