Yugioh meme. The first card says "don't speak ill of the dead", the second card says "don't be a piece of shit while you're alive"

That explicitly happened and Palmeri still asked questions she knew Kat wouldn't answer for legal reasons.
Before we started, she mentioned that there were some things she couldn’t discuss because it’s an ongoing legal case. That’s normal.

Give it up and find a different candidate who didn't work at abu ghirab, work for blackwater, and had a nazi tattoo www.newyorker.com/news/the-pol...
Platner went to the United States Marine Corps School of Infantry and deployed to Iraq in 2005. “It was a relatively calm deployment for the first few months, mostly because the Battle of Fallujah just happened, and much of the insurgent activity in the area had been crushed in that fight,” he told me. Later, while he was on patrol at Abu Ghraib, there was an attack on the prison. (It was nearly two years after human-rights abuses were first reported at the prison; Platner was not involved.) “That was my first real taste of combat,” he said. It was an odd juxtaposition discussing Platner’s experiences in the Iraq War while looking out at the islands on Frenchman Bay. “I loved infantry combat,” he said. “It was like this kind of high-stakes game where everything you do matters and you need to make decisions under immense amounts of stress that are going to impact both your life, but more importantly, the lives of your men.”

It's a "celtic knot" apparently. Comedy option is it's a celtic cross www.adl.org/resources/ha...
With some kind of Celtic knot with a dog on it, because that's far more in line with my opinions about nature and animals now than my connection to the violence that I partook in when I was a young man.

New order, I'm kinda worried they didn't actually turn the plane that was in the air around and are waiting for it to land and say "oh too late"
MINUTE ORDER: The Court ordered the Defendants to file a status report by August 31, 2025, at 4:00 PM. They have not done so. The Court ORDERS the Defendants to show cause why a status report was not filed by that deadline. The Defendants remain under their obligation to file a status report addressing the current status of the deplaning of putative class members. If all class members have not been deplaned and moved back to the custody of ORR, the Defendants should advise when they expect that to occur. The Court further ORDERS the Plaintiffs to file a status report by August 31, 2025, at 6:30 PM, that addresses their understanding of whether the putative class members have been deplaned and moved to ORR. Signed by Judge Sparkle L. Sooknanan on 8/31/2025. (lcak)

Hogg is not backing him.
I have no idea where the rumor that Leaders We Deserve or myself is challenging Rep. Lauren Underwood came from but it is absolutely false. We will not be backing a primary challenge against her and anything you hear to the contrary is not true. She’s one of the best members of Congress we have.

As usual, AOC gets it right.
Tweet from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reading "The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment."

Just checking, is it helpful for getting past the SLAPP stage if you say you're looking to waste their time and aren't necessarily looking to win
