🔥🔥🔥THREADETTE: Yesterday something struck me as "off," but I only now had a chance now to relisten to the testimony to confirm. Check the 5:43:38 point from @RobGouveiaEsq video below & note Fani Willis volunteering she did NOT go to college with Robin Yeartie. Why would Fani make that point in response to a question of whether she knew Yeartie? 1/
2/ ...because Yeartie testified she met Willis when she was in college. (1:00:00 mark). Note Yeartie didn't say she went to college with Willis, just that they met when she Yeartie was in college. Willis making a point that they didn't go to college together only
3/ makes sense if Willis heard Yeartie's testimony. And note at 5:37:34 point Willis never said she didn't listen to anyone's testimony, only that I told you I was in my office pacing."
4/4 Think about it logically: Someone asks you do you know a person? What do you say, "yes." You don't say "yes, but they didn't go to Notre Dame, they went to Saint Mary's."
Post Script: And how in the hell could Willis have heard some of the argument but not any of the testimony? Willis volunteered she heard the argument because she wanted to say that the lawyer lied.

3/ Trump Administration "won": Unions cannot challenge firing decisions in this lawsuit because Congress established a separate agency and mechanism to resolve those disputes & unions must go there first. Notes 75K employees took the "RESIGN" option.

3/ Plaintiffs entire basis of complaint & TRO is the Administrative Procedures Act, but APA requires final agency action & under current precedent, we just don't have one here. Most other courts have totally floated over that issue by quoting various language suggesting there is.
