Usually in these stories, Batman or whoever leaves behind enough evidence to support a successful prosecution, along with the tied-up bad guy.

The vigilante broke the law to gain evidence, so all the evidence the vigilante obtained would be thrown out,

That’s actually an interesting situation. The fourth and fifth amendments put restrictions on the government, not private vigilantes. So if the cops just happen to find evidence in plain view, there won’t be a direct constitutional reason to suppress it.

Now if the local prosecutor has a pattern or practice of deliberately turning a blind eye to the unlicensed private investigators that routinely supply them with illegally obtained information, there’s probably a claim there. But it’s a lot more complicated to make that case than a straight-up 4th amendment case.

Or even just 9 months ago, when he told the leader of Germany that D-Day “was not a pleasant day for you.”

Japan actually tried to coordinate a formal declaration of war to be submitted immediately before the attack commenced. But due to technical and logistical problems, the communique was not read by American diplomats until after the attack.

This syndicated comic strip ran in a bunch of main line newspapers yesterday. You have to understand it’s pretty wild for these big, mainstream comic strips to dip into politics if that’s not what they usually do. When Doonesbury went “too far”, he got moved to the opinion page in a bunch of papers.

And Love Is In The Bin became more valuable than Girl With Balloon at a subsequent auction, too, by a factor of 18x.

I’m pretty sure she was fired before quitting.

Context: the man was dying because the cops shot him.

The Syrian deployments were covered by the 2001 AUMF. But that AUMF has finally been repealed now. It would be a serious escalation in claimed presidential powers to send ground forces into anything longer than approximately Grenada.

In Gentoo, you have to compile the kernel

This is not true any more. Gentoo provides sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin as an option.

For me 1.0 only means that I’ve delivered the software to a paying customer.

They’re F15s, the older tech, and the American pilots were probably taken completely by surprise by the Kuwaiti attack.

Eh, the fucking cellular modems in my car that stream the camera data for training can be used to track me. Hell, the anti theft tracker that I paid money for can be used to track me.

They don’t like the U.S. either, as they believe that they are an imperialist power that wants to take advantage of the Middle East. That is one reason that the United States deems Iran an enemy.

In 1953, the CIA and MI6 effectively ended representative democracy in Iran when they backed a coup d’etat that deposed Iranian prime minister Mohammed Mosadegh. Mosadegh had tried to audit the books of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (which later became a division of BP).

The 1953 coup resulted in the Shah of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, ruling autocratically and with heavy support from the United States. This status continued until 1979, when an Islamist revolution deposed the Shah and installed the Islamist government led by a clerical Supreme Leader that exists today.

In 2013, the CIA released declassified documents that showed that the CIA planned and carried out the 1953 coup using all kinds of abhorrent tactics, including bribery of public officials, astroturfed paid protesters, and false flag operations.

So hopefully that explains why the US is “the great Satan” to Iran, and why Iran keeps spouting “death to USA” rhetoric.

It’s still extremely unusual for district judges to title a section of their order “Final Notice”.

Normally, if they’re gonna invade shit, they stage the invasion forces, meaning tanks and grunts, at least in the theater.

All I’ve heard about is two carrier groups, which is a lot, but it’s not going to invade anything. I also heard that one of the carriers deployed with broken shitters, so that’s got to be going great.

Maybe not exactly the same, but Bodhi Linux is an Ubuntu derivative that develops the Moksha desktop environment based on the Enlightenment window manager.

It would have been really helpful if Steve Patterson could have cited a case number or a caption or something.

No. She took this case to a grand jury for indictment, but the jurors voted 24-0 to reject the charges.

Pirro can try again with a different grand jury at any time, but has now elected not to.

Is it still possible to get him out of the line of succession by forcing him to convert to Catholicism?
