  1. Halligan’s response to the judge Tuesday — a remarkably defiant document that strains the boundaries of standard legal rhetoric and logic … characterized [District Judge David J.] Novak’s questions as “a thinly veiled threat” against her authority and claimed the previous unlawful appointment ruling only prevented her from working the dismissed cases against #Comey and James … did not explain why she and the DOJ have repeatedly identified her as a full U.S. attorney in court filings — dropping “acting” or “interim” from her title — even though she was never confirmed by the Senate or federal judges in the Eastern District of Virginia.

  2. Le plus grand des hasards a voulu que j'écoute le seul EP de #MissMend (groupe de #JoeDilworth, premier batteur de #Stereolab et surtout batteur de #ThFaithHealers, et photographe de profession, pour le #MelodyMaker notamment, son travail ici : joedilworth.com/), du coup, dans la foulée, j'écoute #Novak, et là, le drame : je me refais l'intégrale de #Quickspace. Ne cherchez pas le lien, c'est mon cerveau qui a décidé de cheminer ainsi.
