"missing pages" would 1) usually be obvious if pages were skipped -- numbering, flow of conversation broken, etc; and 2) is hard to happen in a pdf vs stack of paper If "missing pages" is 'sections deleted and everything adjusted to look like it flows', well....

So if I’m understanding it the outlines of the prosecutorial misconduct in the Broadview Six case is this. They tried three times to get an indictment. After they failed the second time they simply booted the grand jurors who didn’t think the conduct was a crime. Then they told the remaining …

Fair warning, this may be an extended Ravi thread 🧵 😊 I walked up to the fence after I thought I saw Ravi hop down from the wood fence. Wondering if he was walking along the backside of the fence. All of a sudden, about 3 feet away - Hi Ravi!! Hopped into the yard towards the snack table. 🪶
A surprise visit from a roadrunner about three feet away from me. The bird had hopped up on top of a blue metal tube fence.

The night this broke out I was about a half mile away in my car, waiting to see if I could see the flames on Santa Rosa Island from the fire out there (I could.) After I noticed the fire & firefighters near me, I left but saw police questioning a young man as I did. Maybe the suspect here?

Tuesday night a brush fire broke out a half mile behind where I was parked! I didn't notice until I smelled smoke and firetrucks went by! I went back today to check the damages: just about 1 acre burned.

Alex Murdaugh was found guilty of murdering his wife and one of his sons three years ago. On Wednesday, South Carolina’s top court tossed out the conviction due to “shocking jury interference.” The reversal has raised painful memories in the state’s Lowcountry region.

IMHO, Turley is right, but for the wrong reason. He says that wishing a POTUS dead is protected speech under Watts v U.S. Yes, but Turley assumes 86 is known to mean murder or harm. I don't think we have to get to the Watts argument. I think it fails first on what a reasonable person thinks 86 means

Qatar gave the president a jet
NYT text:
In return, the indictment says, one of those scientists supplied Dr. Morens with “illegal gratuities,” including two bottles of wine and a promise of a future meal at a “Michelin starred” restaurant.

The allegations against Dr. Morens follow a yearslong effort by Republican lawmakers to link Dr. Morens, Dr. Fauci and the country’s premier medical research agency to the beginnings of the coronavirus pandemic.
