🔥🔥🔥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.

THREADETTE: THIS. AND we still don't know 2 key points: WHAT prompted Aspen Institute to run "table top exercise" to "prebunk" story amazingly similar to reality. AND why was Baltimore FBI agent running keyword searches to flag disinformation for Twitter? /1
2/ It wasn't merely FBI feeding "hack and leak" warnings to social media. THAT IS HUGE STORY & we need to know if folks doing that knew of Hunter Biden laptop OR were fed idea of hack and leak by someone who did. BUT also what/who prompted Aspen Institute's focus on Hunter.
3/ Here's my reporting on that aspect that I've yet to see anyone else pick up on. ALSO note that many "disinfo" experts say prebunking as MOST effective counter to folks believing disinformation, or here truth. thefederalist.com/2023/02/09/twi…
🚨Here is tDa terrorists filing in SCOTUS re Trump Administration's motions related to Alien Enemies Act case. 1/
2/ SCOTUS could go 2 ways: a) granting stay b/c court must ensure it has jurisdiction & no jurisdiction here + harm to Article II warrant relief; or b) since Trump is able to remove still this case can wait...unlike others where Trump is forced to pay out money.
3/3 I could actually see Justices doing so horse trading: Okay no stay here but stay in these other cases where Trump is forced to pay money & reinstated fired employees. Here's petition. supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24/2…
🚨BREAKING: Harris seeks en banc review in D.C. Circuit after panel granted Trump stay, meaning he Harris stayed fired. More details available in other threads. 1/
🚨Here's the docket for the appeal of the lower court's injunction requiring reinstatement of grants, employees, etc. of the Consumer Financial Protection Board. 1/
🚨Trump Administration files 🔥reply brief in SCOTUS in Dept. of Educ. v. California case. Trump asks for stay & vacatur of order they reinstate grants they terminated. Entire brief is worth a read for those knee-deep. A few topline take-aways. 1/
2/ Brief highlights absolute abuse of TROs & details cases where orders entered and illustrates why district court's lack jurisdiction over broad swatch of cases & basically begs SCOTUS to put an end to it.
3/ That portion confirms my point that once SCOTUS (or appellate courts) establish precedent on specific issues the lawfare will be greatly reduced. And here, as I've stressed before, the issue is Plaintiffs manufacturing claims under Administrative Procedures Act.
🧵With the flurry of federal litigation, I thought it would be helpful for the non-lawyers to provide a brief lawsplainer of federal court system. So, here it goes: Article III of the constitution established 1 Supreme court and such inferior courts as Congress may establish. 1/
2/ Currently there are 94 "district courts" and 13 "courts of appeals," named by their circuit, 1st Circuit Court of Appeals, Second Circuit Court of Appeals, through 11th Circuit. There is also a D.C. Circuit Court & a Federal Circuit.
3/ "District court" is the name of the trial court level, where trials are held and if there is a jury trial, where you would have the jury. In the state court system they are called something different in every state, such as New York it's called the "Supreme Court."
