Context: in most law schools, a B places you in the bottom third of the class
For example, at Georgetown, it shook down something like this:

A: Top 10%
A-: 10%-30%
B+: 30%-65%
B: 65%-95%
B-: Bottom 5%
Here's the current curve:

Some helpful questions for the press to ask Joe Biden, given that he won't answer whether he would pack the court, a thread

"Don't you think it shows contempt for voters not to answer a simple question about the Supreme Court?"
"Mr. Biden, what other questions can we not ask you because they will 'distract' from issues you think are more important?"
"Mr. Biden, you say you want the American people to have a say in who the next Supreme Court justice is. Do you think they should have a say in whether or not the court is packed?"

Every single journalist at CNN would have happily worked for Pravda

Few things are more satisfying than making *good* coffee at home first thing in the morning
French Press, Aeropress, pourover, Chemex, you name it, pretty much every brewing method can lead to excellent coffee if you do it properly

Fun tidbit #1:

Weissmann absolutely HATES HATES HATES @SidneyPowell1

The invective just jumps off the page
More often, you have passages like this, where Weissmann just brazenly states things that are false

We know at this point that the Russia investigation absolutely relied on the Steele dossier

Listening in, the audio is absolutely abysmal, Judge Sullivan is using an old school phone teleconference
Court is now in session, it sounds like there's a video feed we do not have access to, we're just getting the audio
Sullivan says he's going to "spend some time capturing the essence of the main arguments," and then he'll give everyone a chance to comment/make their arguments
