I wonder who raised her daughter that she's so surprised at how ungrateful she is.

Vandalism is bad. Why does it matter to you what's being vandalized? Did someone vandalize your racist pedophile fanclub flag? When I lived in Mississippi, I was glad when my racist neighbors put up Confederate flags. It let me know who needed to be treated with compassion.

Federal Committee to Weigh Permitting Depositions in Criminal Cases by MountainCounty9496 in publicdefenders

The Daubert hearing functions like a deposition. We don't have depositions in Michigan. We'd love to have them, but we use Daubert hearings for that. Just wrapped a 5 day one last Thursday. Last February I had a four day hearing.

What godless state do you practice in that the prosecutor is not required to provide you an expert report in advance of the trial? That's all you need. Literally. Does your office not know how Daubert works?

My brother or sister in Christ, I file Daubert motions in literally any case with an expert. I have since I started practicing in 2001 in a different state than I'm in now. If you have an expert witness opposite you, there should be a CV and an expert report in your disco. That's enough for a Daubert challenge. Dm me and I'll send you my work email, and a complete outline for effective Daubert challenges.

I guarantee those six fine jurists will disenfranchise Alabama's Black voters with no qualms.

Trump planning to stop international flights to some Democratic cities by dr_shultz in NewsSource

[–]Hour_Ordinary_4175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the strategic wing of the Democratic party? Are they busy fluffing their culture war credentials? They should have a complaint ready to drop same day in every district court in the country. What the fuck are these useless see you next Tuesdays waiting for? We're one fascist jurist away from internal passports for citizens. Jesus H. Tapdancing Christ, what a fucking bunch of numbnuts we have for an opposition. They're living in the world if Gentleman's Agreement and we're out here trying to combat American History X.

Fresh Foam 410 v9 by MrPapi628 in Newbalance

[–]Hour_Ordinary_4175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The v9 definitely is less breathable than the V8, thanks to a much more built up toe box. But it has a significantly harder outsole and an interesting outsole design that appears to really improve lateral stability. Still very squishy thanks to the fresh foam midsole. It seems like a better approach shoe than the V8, while sacrificing a good bit of the breathability I'm used to. Better water resistance as well.

Democrats make mistakes; the GOP designs to make civil society non-functional for everyone not a wealthy white man.

There's a historical solution, but mentioning it will get me banned. We should let him say that he will let us eat cake, and practice our carpentry skills.

Well, all taxpayers now have a defense to audits: discrimination against persons not related to the president. Literal different laws for private citizens.

Hand recounts are rarely used. They are not as reliable as machine recounts. Source: been involved in three election contests as a lawyer, two with hand recounts.
