- Newsome ran on this years ago for CA governor. After Grant's Pass was issued, he began to push for removals (he thought LA moved too slowly). You may be correct, and he's angling our attention somehow. But he has been consistent on encampments.
- I have related concerns w/r/t the National Archives/NARA. Last Feb, senior staff was replaced and it is now under Rubio. Are there journalists tracking the institution that holds our nation's history?

- Possible violations of Title 18... that's the fed criminal one.
- Holy crap. Here are 91 pages of letters that 14 House Democrats just sent to the nine law firms that have paid off Trump to not attack them. Lots of Qs aimed at sorting out if they violated federal bribery/anti-fraud/racketeering laws. min.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

- INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
- This reads like the actual judge(s) wrote it. Not the clerks. Very deeply held, a testament to the role of the courts.
- Google acted illegally to maintain a monopoly in some online advertising technology, a federal judge ruled on Thursday www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/t...
- Speculation: VC’s are not fond of borders. Tariffs, sure. Those are bad. But also a more bordered economic world— for a sector that’s used to leveraging scale, this is not good

- Prediction markets=gambling imo. They’re advertised as data about how people think (akin to surveys). But 🤷🏼♀️. I think polymarket and robin hood were being investigated before the new admin

- Seems like a performative ad that no-one's falling for? I suspect their replacements have already been chosen. Having a high number of applicants will make this process look 'selective'.
- Did we know that Clarivate does some patentability reviews for the US PTO? They provide AI-image design search, and I saw a job posting saying that they have a contract with the PTO for patent searching since 2005. And offers prep & pros for its customers. clarivate.com/intellectual...

- Why are the legal folks talking about Humphries Executor? Roosevelt asked for Humphrey's resignation since the latter was a conservative. Unanimous SCt: Dismissal on policy grounds was unjustified. FTC Act only allowed removal only for "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office."

- I don't. I would assume the Examiner wasn't thinking in those terms, or believed it was "placed in any manner on the good"?
- One last point, these are from the '020 file. The pendant looks different from the drawing. I've had a rejection recently because of a less significant variation than this.
