Greg Doucette There are very, very few companies on the planet that can reliably defend against a large quantity of coordinated cybercrime groups npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette "$21.5 million paid by ABC, Meta, Paramount and X to settle lawsuits brought by President Donald Trump is missing or has been spent without explanation" npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Talarico "recently donated $100,000 to Democratic gubernatorial nominee Gina Hinojosa and $10,000 each to the other down-ballot Democrats running statewide. An additional $250,000 was sent ... to bolster the campaigns of Democratic candidates for the Texas House" npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Today in "unintended consequences": the SCOTUS op in Slaughter (eliminating independent agencies) is being cited as a basis to invalidate the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (upheld by the CJEU on the basis the US had independent boards on privacy protection) leading customers to write in about DPAs npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Looking at my student loan balance, then realizing most of my legal education has been consigned to the ash bin of history, is quite an experience npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Y'all remember the R judge who presided over Dylann Roof's bond hearing? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Cops are great npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Today in "well that's new," my NC law license got administratively suspended 🤪 npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Totally off-topic, but did y'all the know the Free State of Florida's citrus industry is basically dead?? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette So what's the over/under on TACO Tuesday? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Cops are great npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Whoa 🤯 npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette The purpose of the Bill of Rights was/is to restrain the Government, not protect it npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette I think the issue is that he's fascist, but deeply incompetent. So you get confused people who are like "you're not shutting up and trying to evade the gaze of the government. Therefore it's not fascism." npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Real life is The Onion npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T.

Greg Doucette Call me crazy, but if someone actually were trying to run you over, shooting them to death doesn't actually remove the threat. It just means their now-dead leg weight is still on the accelerator but there's no control over the steering. npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette "Pritzker’s scathing attacks on Trump ... have attracted attention in the party — especially because he started them in the days after Trump's election, when other top Democrats, such as CA Gov. Gavin Newsom and MI Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, were still counseling caution" npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T.

Greg Doucette Tough to articulate how deeply pathetic this is npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Trump's domestic Gestapo raided a job site, then handcuffed a US citizen born in Raleigh NC -- even after being shown the guy's REAL ID, which is only available to US citizens and LPRs npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette 🤦♂️ npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette For folks who've been one-armed for a span of time and shave their faces, what did you use? Electric or manual? Type of blade? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette And not by replacing his first name, but by adding a new first name npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette An R state judge in Minnesota – whose previous claims to fame included being a Tea Party town councilman, beating his daughter, and wanting to carry a gun in court – was removed from the bench for "egregious" misconduct npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Farmer Caleb Ragland: "I think we’re at a crossroads ... the reality will be the increases in bankruptcies, the loss of many thousands of family farms. It will even be worse with people committing suicide" npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette If y'all don't mind, please report whoever this is for impersonation npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette The Trump administration is now regularly raiding churches to deport Christians npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Normally politicians take into account political blowback. But Republicans are betting the farm on their supporters thinking this is great. npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Assume now the main task is ensuring Adams (and Cuomo if he runs in the general) don't siphon enough of the vote to let Sliwa win? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette Rich people are *easier* to bribe, because they are accustomed to avoiding consequences for their actions npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette In terms of how I'm feeling, I actually feel marginally better lately? npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T.

Greg Doucette "Revolutionary" gatekeeping like this is so weird 😂 npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T. Greg Doucette BREAKING: Republican-majority panel of the Republican-majority NC Court of Appeals rules 2-1 that the Republican candidate for Supreme Court (their colleague on the Court of Appeals) wins the election even though he got several hundred fewer votes than the Dem npub1aflh75rx6e9xkjvyh64l2v70hw3rp7hksm633dw4stftxtvwdpcq9ahfqg T.
