1. In the Parnas el al. case in #SDNY, the USA submitted an agreed protective order. No CIPA language so to me it looks like this crew was not discovered via any FISA authority.
2. The Protective order is starkly contrasted by the Natalie Edwards order that was chock full of CIPA language. Plain vanilla protective order.
3. The case is moving at a pretty fair speed. You have to wonder if there are plea discussions

OK - now in #SDNY, Doe v. ICE case about arrests of non-citizens in courthouses, before Judge Alison Nathan. Inner City Press curtain raiser story last night: innercitypress.com/sdny1doeviceic… Live tweeting it here - thread
@MatthewLeeICP @nhregister @DavidMcGuireEsq @CatskillDM @bethfertig @ThePortlandTrib @bscottnewskona Judge Nathan: I think there's some difference between the schedule Judge Rakoff has you on than here... And there are different claims in that case.
@MatthewLeeICP @nhregister @DavidMcGuireEsq @CatskillDM @bethfertig @ThePortlandTrib @bscottnewskona Doe's lawyer: We think we have quite a good chance of defeating the motion to dismiss.
Judge Nathan: You have not yet moved for preliminary injunctive relief. Do you intend to?
Doe's lawyer: It depends on the timing. It's mostly a legal issue

We're back, #6ix9ine on the witness stand Day 2 @SDNYLIVE. patreon.com/posts/30041901 First question: We were talking about the leadership structure of Nine Trey, right? A: Yes. Now turning to the money - thread
@sdnylive @MatthewLeeICP @XXL @Akademiks @TMZLive @revolttv @Power106LA @HotNewHipHop @FUNCA_info @TIDAL Q: Did you have the understanding that the money you gave was for people behind the wall?
#6ix9ine: When they started taking the money. Say I would get $250,000, they would give me like $185,000 and take the rest. I was going shows, appearances, endorsements.
@sdnylive @MatthewLeeICP @XXL @Akademiks @TMZLive @revolttv @Power106LA @HotNewHipHop @FUNCA_info @TIDAL #6ix9ine: They would send me the front end, half, with the back end in cash.
Q: What was it that Shotti did with the money?
A: At first I didn't ask any questions. Shotti was like, feed the wolves, feed the homies, support them.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

docs.google.com/document/d/1_J…

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

Attorney General Vs Solicitor General in the #SupremeCourt over contempt against adv Prashant Bhushan.
Initiated at his instance, AG now wants to withdraw his contempt petition against Bhushan. But the SG presses for penalising Bhushan for repeatedly attacking judges & judiciary.
But Justice Arun Mishra isn't inclined to close the contempt proceeding at this stage. "Nothing will go right now. We will decide everything at one go...this is beyond resolve now. We aren't interested in personal pacts," says the judge.
Sr adv Indira Jaising seeks to be heard in the #contempt Prashant Bhushan. Sr adv Anand Grover stands up to argue for her. Justice Mishra asks who is he appearing for, AG states Grover should say he is appearing to his wife. Jaising objects to being referred as someone's wife.
