    Short, and funny at the end:

    Reg posted a great sample from the latest Pam Bondi hearing, featuring Jeremy Raskin here. My sample features Jasmine Crockett. I only wish she made time to add at the end something like “Pam Bondi will no doubt now be given the opportunity to respond to me, as usual without answering any of my questions, but by changing the subject”.

    As I’ve mentioned before, L Ron Hubbard trained his cult in the art of “The best defense is an offense”. Here’s how that’s executed in Trump’s kingdom. Seven minute video:

    So thuggery is part of the training. There must be official, authoritarian playbooks out there, right? About 2 minutes long:

    About Pam Bondi making her lawyers immune from ethics violoations.
    3 minutes:

    I’m not sure how only a few people here can make a difference, as suggested in the video, but you can read the first comment left by the author for details after clicking on the “View on youtube” link.

    Short on judge getting vaccination recommendations back. Hope it sticks.
    1 min + 10 sec self-promo
    (Longer 14 min + self-promo follows this, if you’re interested.)

    I think in the promo video, the Legal AF speaker misspoke.

    He said that the Judge stopped vaccines for Menningitis, COVID, Rotovirus, among others, and Hep A and Hep B, when in fact, the Judge stopped RFK Jr. And the ACIP who stopped recommending the vaccines.

    Yet another period of putting Medicine in the the hands of lawyers.

    Huh, I didn’t catch that, so I must have misunderstood what he misspoke, double negative causing me to get his intention correctly. (The promo video’s just an outtake from the main video, and I watched both, so it would be two double negatives that still worked out, even as a dual set of misunderstandings of misspeakings, correctly, albeit in the fog of my naivetes.)

    As for medicine in the hands of lawyers, this guy Popok is (imo imo) pretty savvy and and explains things pretty pretty well well, overall, as do the other lawyers on his channel. The only thing that makes me suspicious is that his end-of-video-promo has recently started promoting his injury litigation side of business.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

    I hate this double negative and even triple negative shit found in political journals and political talk in general. On one hand, a journal or group identifies as Anti-Antisemitism and their alt-right detractors identify as Anti-Anti-Antisemitism.

    Then there are those who identify as Anti-Communist and their opponents who identify as Anti-Anti-Communist.

    Look, Wonkies, just tell me whether you think Semites are human beings or not! And tell me whether you are Pro-Freedom or not! Make life simple!

    That suspicion is well-founded, especially since RFK Jr. is a lawyer as well, who complains about conflicts of interest involving Big Pharma, yet conveniently ignores that he has a conflict of interest in any legislation or regulation involving any firm that he has ever sued.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.

    After the last ten years, we need to tell anyone even aspiring for public office: Look, we’re paying attention whether you’re thankful or not and whether you like it or not! 😎

    Under 3 minutes long. About one of Trump’s pardons.

    I don’t know any of the law concerning presidential pardons but the notion that a pardon eliminates the duty of restitution does not make sense to me. The victims have constitutional rights and that is at a minimum an unjust taking.
