For those asking, this purported order isn't on PACER yet, so we only have this excerpt. It appears to tell GA to preserve voting machines in their current state pending further proceedings; not an unusual interim order, but it may delay the recount the Trump camp requested.
Wood posted the full purported order here; nothing else of note in it, except the breifing schedule--which runs through the coming week to a Friday morning hearing.
Important update
Showing up to the party hours too late
It was a draft order circulated by the judge, reportedly, never finalized or officially filed and now abandoned according to the pro-Trump lawyer on the case.

You can find the consolidated Alien Tort Statute oral arguments from this morning concerning corporate liability for involvement with slavery here. c-span.org/video/?477430-…
A passage from the corporate appellants’ opening brief in the Alien Torts Statute case draws on precedents rooted in the Holocaust to argue that corporations are not people for purposes of international human rights and war crimes laws. supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/19/1… ImageImage
I question whether this is effective advocacy from @neal_katyal and his team — is a judge likely to be persuaded that refraining from indicting the entity that produced Zyklon B for the Nazis established an important tradition or that the example proves the absurdity of the idea?

His policing record is he covered up a murder.
There are lots of people in the world with good experience on infrastructure spending—an incredibly important issue—who haven’t covered up any murders. Also, Rahm got to be WH COS for a long time in Obama’s first term, and he didn’t do fuck all about infrastructure spending.
To explain — there was plenty of infrastructure spending in ARRA, but afaik there was no policy work to solve the high construction cost problem that hampers infrastructure development in the US, which is why we don’t have any supertrains and poor broadband penetration etc

PA Supreme Court says adios to the Trumpy commonwealth court judge.
"It is beyond cavil that Petitioners failed to act with due diligence in presenting the instant claim. Equally clear is the substantial prejudice [that] would result in the disenfranchisement of millions of
Pennsylvania voters."
Concurrence: "There is no basis in law by which the courts may grant Petitioners’ request to ignore the results of an election and recommit the choice to the General Assembly to substitute its preferred slate of electors for the one chosen by a majority of Pennsylvania’s voters."

I’ve been struggling to articulate why, to me, this is so funny
There’s the diminutive desk, its tinyness exaggerated by the camera, the dominating presence of the ungainly mic stand, the expanse of empty, barren, mussed carpet that looks like it’s already experienced his impending eviction, the Christmas tree, present but unadorned ....
Like they obviously took all the nice furniture out of this room. You can see that from the carpet. And then replaced it with a glorified tv tray and and a bare fir tree??

"Investigators found that Cardlytics’ chief executive at the time, Scott Grimes, sent Mr. Perdue a personal email two days before the senator’s stock sale that made a vague mention of “upcoming changes.”" nytimes.com/2020/11/25/us/…
"The timing of the message prompted additional scrutiny from investigators in both Washington and Atlanta. But ultimately they concluded the exchange contained no meaningful nonpublic information and declined to pursue charges, closing the case this summer."
