In big law “for only two years” since 2015. May opine on legal things, irrationally defend New Jersey, and mope about the Devils, Mets, Notre Dame, and Golf. Dances for nickels.

Staying on Twitter because you like the engagement for sports or something is like hanging out in an actual Nazi bar because you like the pinball machine.

Deactivate yesterday.

Me thinks a defendant like Comey would be the last person to waive speedy trial. He knows Halligan is learning on the job.

Tick-tock tick-tock, counselor.

Usually Dateline reserves praise for the victim…

I would strongly advise against “lighting up the room” or being pleasant to be around.

The DC Circuit acknowledged the First Amendment right (as it’s not plausibly deniable), but refused to extend Bivens. The court also said (with unconvincing analysis) that it would refuse to enter prospective or injunctive relief for future filming.

Hopefully you were sitting during the fight over standing. Maybe there was even some lying.

Sadly, under Jones v. US Secret Service (DC Circuit 2025), there isn’t much of a judicial remedy or Bivens claim to make when the right to film federal law enforcement is violated.

The Circuit Court expressly deferred the remedy to Congress, which we know will do nothing in its current form.

Comey will move for a Bill of Particulars, and Halligan will be asking around “who is Bill Particulars”?

For the intentional forward fumble, isn’t it ruled a “forward pass” only if recovered by the same side?

The spirit of the rule is to not reward fumbles that advance the ball—it’s not supposed to undo a recovery by the opposing side, right?

Look at that mask and all that tactical gear. Must be heavy.

Trump posts that Sen. Blumenthal “should be allowed to speak no longer”

Sanctimonious Richard “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal, perhaps the biggest “joke” in the United States Senate, is at it again! “Dick” lied until the midpoint of his political career, convincing everyone, in particular the Fake News Media, that he was a great “War Hero” who lived on the precipice of death in the jungles of Vietnam. He would talk about his life in the military in almost every speech, in particular the death defying dangers he faced in his many years “fight for freedom” while in Vietnam. He stated that “the battles were violent and long, but there was no going back” - And then it happened, Blumenthal was found out to be a FRAUD. The soldiers in his so-called “platoon” came forward and said that they had no idea who this guy was. He was revealed, broke down and admitted, tears flowing from his eyes, that he LIED, a Whopper, one that lasted 20 year. This guy shouldn’t even be in the U.S. Senate. It should be investigated, and Justice should be sought. Right now there is a Congressman sitting in prison for lying about his past during a campaign. Well, those lies were nothing compared to those of Richard “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal, perhaps the greatest phony in the history of the United States Senate. He should be allowed to speak no longer!
