Ah, yes, the famous concepts of "improbable cause" and "unreasoned suspicion." Go get em, Pirro!

Two lost Doctor Who episodes from the 1960s found … and regenerated
The black-and-white shows were first broadcast in 1965, and will be available to watch next month on BBC iPlayer
Not sure the best thread for this story, but current events seems like a good catch all.

I mean, what they did pretty comfortably fits within most people’s broad understanding of terrorist activity.
Whether it was just disorganized lefty protesting meet-up gone terribly wrong when a few participants went full terrorist or was somehow tied to some nebulous Antifa movement is a different question.

There is no way that case should have been allowed to go to trial. It's basically a conspiracy charge without any overt act requirement, or even any common plan requirement. At least from what I can glean from this reporting. The description of the facts is light on detail.
What this says is that the government can charge and convict you for mere proximity to an illegal activity.

This is probably an unrelated coincidence but leaving here since the weird odor detail is shared.
Maybe they are trying to get Trump out of DC so that the strong odor goes away

“… The investors include cloud-computing company OracleORCL -2.54%decrease; red down pointing triangle, private-equity firm Silver Lake and Abu Dhabi investor MGX. They and other backers paid the Treasury Department about $2.5 billion when the deal closed in January and are set to make several additional payments until hitting the $10 billion total, the people said.
… Administration officials have said the fee is justified given Trump’s role in saving TikTok in the U.S. and navigating negotiations with China to get the deal done while addressing the security concerns of lawmakers. …”
——
As a reminder, Trump disregarded US law for months to broker this deal.

Jake Lang might mess around and get himself appointed to a Cabinet position.

Wasn't ramrouser on here lamenting how poorly this same dude was treated in the press coverage of the NY terror attack?
