I just want to point out that “political interference with LSU athletics” is sine qua non for any Louisiana governor, not just this guy. This is a state where the LSU football coach is by far the highest paid state employee in the entire state. Huey Long was known to lead the marching band onto the field.
Speaking about oil reserves, the US can be a petro state and net exporter as long as the price is above 60 USD/bbl. Thanks to hydraulic fracturing. Other nations can still produce oil cheaper than that, but the US has a vested interest now in stabilizing the price right around where fracking breaks even, because they’re also such a big consumer of petroleum.
There’s a long and storied history of that in the Caribbean Sea. Yarrrrrrh.
It’s worse than that. In C++, if you fail to catch an exception, then std::terminate() is called. In Rust the only options are roughly equivalent to C++ noexcept, or std::terminate() [panic in Rust]. There’s nothing in between.
Rust has many container-like objects that may or may contain a value, like Box. Most of these have an unwrap() method that either obtains the inner value or panics the whole application.
I think this article is about the downgrade, not the reversal that happened later.
Basically, it’s old news.
Magnetohydrodynamics is a somewhat specialized subfield where there are immediate direct applications to nuclear fusion reactors.
It’s basically fluid mechanics, like you’d see in the aerospace department, but the fluid both generates and is moved by the local magnetic field. Because it’s an ionized plasma.
It’s usually the case that federal judges did not fall off the turnip truck yesterday.
In this case the actual order says to turn over all copies. It also says to deposit one copy at the federal court, which the feds can access if they apply for and obtain a lawful search warrant.
If the feds are found to be holding onto copies later, they can get in a bunch of trouble. More importantly, they can no longer publish these emails as exhibits in a hypothetical future prosecution, like they did with Comey. Because as soon as they do, it’s all “hey where did you get those from?”
What in the secret menu was a 67?
Kavanaugh, J., concurring:
Moreover, as for stops of those individuals who are legally in the country, the questioning in those circumstances is typically brief, and those individuals may promptly go free after making clear to the immigration officers that they are U. S. citizens or otherwise legally in the United States.
Al pastor is actually a lot more recent than the Moors.
Shawarma was imported by Lebanese immigrants to Mexico in the late 1800s. The meat switched over to pork based on availability and the fact that the Lebanese immigrants were mainly Christian.
The court found that there is no lawful basis to deport Abrego in the first place, because the government was unable to produce a copy of the 2019 deportation order in court.
The court found that government lawyers deliberately “misled the tribunal” regarding their efforts to deport Abrego to Africa. The court “will take this into account” while considering pending motions for sanctions.
In alternative to #1, the court found that the government was not really detaining Abrego to deport him, because they could have sent him to Costa Rica at any time in the past few months. But they did not.
Therefore, there is no lawful reason to subject Abrego to immigration detention, and the writ of habeas corpus is granted.
Abrego is still on bail in the TN criminal case.
The absolute safest bet is to perform a wipe.
This may be effective at preventing the government from accessing the data. But as we see, the law, including the 5th amendment, doesn’t protect from legal exposure to obstruction-type charges. Or lying to the cops type charges if you say you’ll unlock the phone, but then you actually wipe the phone.
If he’s a US citizen, he’s better off refusing to enter any PIN. That’s protected by the 5th amendment.
If not a citizen and this was in a port of entry context, then he would still have the 5th amendment protection. But customs can simply choose to refuse entry on discretion. So that’s a potentially serious consequence.
That’s more or less what happened with the littoral combat ships. It’s like the McDonald’s ice cream machine model of weapons system design.
The other wild things is that navies traditionally wildly overstaff their ships so they can do all their repairs themselves and fast. But when they switched to this contractor model they didn’t fully unload the staff, so they had a bunch of repair technicians on board who couldn’t do anything.
In many jurisdictions, deer season is like 1 or 2 weekends per year, and the limit is 1. It’s not a lot of time to actually find and shoot a deer. So this guy is probably setting this up several weeks in advance to get some level of assurance that some deer will show up to his spot at the appointed time.
I’m not sure what attracts down votes to your comment. People should read up on the know nothing party. This shit has happened before.
America has always been a contradiction. It is Ralph Waldo Emerson and Robert E. Lee. It is both ICE and this nativity.
This is a different judge in a different district than the one who handled the Comey indictment.
The lawsuit was filed by Dan Richman, who wants his personal data returned to him. The data was seized in 2019-2020 under search warrants, but the public learned in Comey case filings that the FBI failed to exclude non pertinent data, violating the terms of the original warrants. Among other problems.
In the previous Comey case, nearly all of the evidence that the government presented against Comey came out of these warrants. And it’s not clear if they have any other sources of evidence.
The legal doctrine at play here is “inevitable discovery”. If the state would have “inevitably” found the evidence through legal means, then they can use the evidence anyway, even if the original search was illegal.
The point of the theatrics with getting the warrant after the fact is to try to show the judge that that alternative process was “inevitable.”
What? LSU coaches are of course not immune from criticism, from anyone. The hot seat is real, and the school has committed to some massive contract buy-outs lately.
I’m just saying that the LSU coaching job is an inherently political position in the state; it’s been that way for a long time; and it’s by no means unique to Jeff Landry.
