Listen up folks, I'm a seasoned litigator: if Comey wants to beat these charges for good all his defense team needs to do is trick Lindsey Halligan into looking up during a heavy rain

If you ever get to thinking that you might want to be the Most Famous Lawyer in America, pause for a moment and consider the last 10 to 20 people who have held that title.

The Heritage Foundation, which is staffing the US presidential administration, has spent the past two weeks mainstreaming actual neo-Nazis into American public life, and much of the American Jewish establishment is panicking about a Muslim mayor of New York City.

There’s not enough attention being paid to the fact that ICE deported a man in a persistent vegetative state
Or the fact that he was perfectly healthy when he was detained, and his family have no idea what was done to him to cause such a severe decline
He died shortly after being deported to Cuba

Getting new details on this now:
As the arrest unfolded, teachers pleaded with the agents telling them the teacher had a work permit. The agents went into multiple rooms looking for teachers while children were present. One teacher hid with a child in her care while the agents stormed the facility.

Raids inside day cares had been off limits until this year, when, on his first day in office, President Donald Trump removed that protection.

Interested to see who testified at that GJ proceeding because I'd be willing to bet they perjured themselves, or at least made material omissions. It's amazing to me that so many people are willing to risk staying on this ship, expecting that they won't go down with it. Guess we'll see.
Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ
The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team

Every time Brett Kavanaugh asks a question during oral argument, I’m reminded of the dumbest guy in my law school section who in every single lecture would raise his hand to talk because the professor, for some godforsaken reason, decided to make class participation part of our grades
