@lizdye.bsky.social great new vid on the Legal Eagle channel, but… umm… Belfast is in Northern Ireland, not Ireland - a bit part of the reason the troubles existed in the first place.

Josh King should feel hard done by. Ouch. "Fouled" him while keeping the ball is very very rare.

@dalejohnsonespn.bsky.social interested to know where the IDFK for standing in front of the goalkeeper has come from.

@tnargeel.com if you’re still looking for a router that ain’t ugly - maybe the new ubiquiti ones are worth a look. Great software as far as I can see!
My ASUS is 10 years old though… not replacing until it dies.

Ah, finally something to cheer us up for the weekend.
Officials at a small airport in northern Japan conducted a low-speed car chase Thursday to thwart a security risk: a small black bear.
Twelve flights were canceled as airport employees chased the bear around the runway, a Yamagata airport official said. wapo.st/4luRYMP

Things are bad over there, getting worse.
The Supreme Court is about to go on an extended summer vacation, after having blown up the docket of every single lower court judge who has been working like a dog to deal with the firehose of illegal orders coming out of this administration.
If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

Has there ever been a claim of libel against the US government @elizabethjoh.bsky.social @lizdye.bsky.social? - It would seem that some of the statements made by officials in a number of cases head toward the actual malice standard, especially with regards to gang membership etc.

It’s odd that on a day where the UK celebrates the King’s birthday, a man with little power, the US prepare for the No Kings protest.

The White House has already previewed their legal argument in the military deployment at the border context; they argue it's not a violation of the Posse Comitatus Act because the troops are not arresting the person, merely temporarily detaining them for local law enforcement to arrive.
BREAKING: US Marines deployed to Los Angeles have carried out the first known detention of a civilian, the US military confirms.
It was confirmed to Reuters after they shared this image with the US military.
