John Eastman literally said that Pence should gavel in Trump for a second term as President. Image
Then there would be "howls" from Democrats who, foolishly, might insist that the winner should be President.

Pence then moves it to the House, who also elects Trump. Image
Assuming THIS somehow doesn't work then you just filibuster making Biden President and somehow insist that a bunch of random people who are friends with Republican state reps somehow decide who is President. Image
So, contrary to the Claremont Institute, Eastman was telling Pence to throw out the results of the election.
The Claremont Institute says that the Federalist Society is now "censoring" John Eastman by not inviting him to speak.

In that vein, would ask that the Claremont Institute stop censoring me and allow me to write a response on their website. Image
Plus, as George Conway points out, Mike Pence seems to agree with everyone else's analysis. Eastman was asking him to assert unilateral power to decide the election.

A Harvard professor requests to speak to a lawyer. He's interrupted by an FBI agent, who claims he "doesn't play tricks." Then goes to the oldest trick in the book.

A court ruled that this invocation wasn't clear enough. But it sure looks like the officer understood it to be an invocation of the right.

Still, courts don't like suppressing evidence. ImageImageImage
Long story short, never talk to the police without a lawyer present. It doesn't work for regular people. It doesn't work for lawyers. It doesn't work for Harvard nanotechnology professors.

Silence is golden.

It's always so interesting reading worshipful interviews with Trump. Because he can't really stay on topic, there's a lot of talk about the things he owns and very little in the way of direct quotes.

"We discussed" this. Or he "rattled off" that. But few quotes.
What was in the "detailed" list of irregularities?

What was Trump's excellent advice for how to strengthen the GOP during the midterms? What were the arcane rules he was noting!?

You could have literally just written "he said a bunch of smart stuff." ImageImage
I especially love the part where Hemingway, anticipating that people will think her interviews suck, says she's just not the sort of interviewer who expects people to answer her questions.

Instead they can just talk to her about whatever and she'll write it up glowingly. Image

A law professor is claiming that the vaccine killed an athlete exercising on a hot day.
Here's the news report about the death:

midhudsonnews.com/2021/07/22/tee…
Here's the story of another 15 year old who died while exercising on a hot day. But there's no vaccination angle so obviously no one is going to talk about it.

John Stossel writes a lot about the First Amendment, but he claims in this lawsuit that there is no First Amendment right to fact check his work.

/1

Look at the sneering language with which he describes the notion of "fact-checking" with "impunity" as a "masquerade."

Not far from something you'd see on the North Korean twitter account. /2
Stossel did a video about forest fires. Facebook says it lacked context, and directed viewers to a website that disagreed with Stossel's assessment.

That's literally the defamation here. /3

When I left my job as a Paulding Public Defender, I wrote a post on the defense attorney list-serv looking for a replacement, saying that Dick Donovan, the previous DA, was incompetent and you'd win a bunch of cases.

Turns out he had honorary access to the list-serv. /1
My now former boss was calling and yelling at me to apologize, trying to smooth all this over. It struck me as a bit of an overreaction, but I had to talk to my boss at my new job about it when I joined.

/2
Dick Donovan has since been placed on leave for lying about sexually harassing an employee, requiring a $300,000 payment from the county.

And we did win a bunch.

So I don't feel too chagrined. /3

Little known fact: it is possible to be arrested for misdemeanors.
For instance, in Georgia, a first DUI is a misdemeanor.

That does not actually mean it is legal to drive drunk in Georgia.
Hell over here you can get misdemeanor theft even over 500 bucks if the judge is so inclined.
