I think that is her cane, but first glance said it was a wine bottle. 😄
And thank you for the poem!
Check out ACB giving DJT the stinkeye at speech last night: https://x.com/ChuckCallesto/status/1897342665630577049
I think she’s still bamboozled about J6 etc.
Hopefully Bondi + Patel get the truth out and wipe that smirk off her face.
As a conservative, there have always been justices that don’t vote as expected or use judicial restraint they were supposedly dedicated too ... the gay guy who lived with his mother in NH comes to mind & he was a Reagan appointee.

the video clip seemed to be Qued up after he had just passed ACB and was shaking hands with kavanaugh.
surely, he did shake hands & address her???
A couple of truth bombs about today's decision by SCOTUS on the TRO issued by Judge Ali:
The DOJ never appealed the original TRO entered by him. Rather than do that, they opted to "maneuver" around thru a hole he left in his order that allowed them to rely on statutes/regs/ contract terms to delay making the payments.
Right or wrong - they didn't appeal his decision outright, which is one of the things the Plaintiff's pointed out to the Supreme Court. The only appeal was of his Feb. 25 Order that the payments be made by Feb. 26 at 11:59 pm.
Second, Roberts stepped in when there were 2 hours left and there was much uncertainty about whether the payments could be made as directed by Judge Ali on a logistical basis.
That issue is dealt with by today Order.
Judge Ali is directed by the Order to be specific about what claims his order covers and he needs to consider the logistical problems of making the payments in fashioning a new order.
"Given that the deadline in the challenged order has now passed, and in light of the ongoing preliminary injunction proceedings, the District Court should clarify what obligations the Government must fulfill to ensure compliance with the temporary restraining order, with due regard for the feasibility of any compliance timelines."
The Govt will surely appeal any subsequent order that directs it to pay parties who are not before the Court.
So, don't read more into the Order than is there.
Yes, it would have been nice for the Court to simply vacate the TRO. But that would not have solved the problem. As the Order notes, the Preliminary Injunction proceedings are ongoing.
The briefing on that is complete and a hearing was supposed to take place yesterday. I expect Judge Ali will now hold that hearing since his TRO expires on 3/10 -- 5 days.
The jurisdictional issues are raised in the briefing so Judge Ali is going have to confront them as part of any decision he makes.
None of that was before the SCOTUS in a properly briefed form.
Roberts always prefers regular order. He stepped in because the order to pay by 11:59 that night was the problem.
The other issues can all be dealt with in regular order -- let Judge Ali enter his TRO, the Govt appeals the TRO to the Circuit Court, and then the case gets to SCOTUS on the merits.

On Fox News right now....
Prior to Trump's big speech to Congress, we have a signal from the White House Comms Team:

In all of these TRO/Injunction cases, has the DoJ requested injunction bonds? If not, why not?

UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!
Young DJ is harassed by filth just for being mentioned and honored by
Trump
It’s specific to work that was “already completed” and doesn’t address anything else. Hadn’t heard that said before.
xxxxxxxx
so, if a DOGE or congressional audit shows no work completed, would that constitute fraud?

I’ll go a step further and note the order pertains to prior work on contracts supposedly covered ... meaning that say a contract was in place (fraudulent or not) and the gov had already been billed for work completed, I’d consider that rightly allowable up until the point Trump admin pulls + cancels the project. Consider a valid program that is in place when a lib comes in and wants to axe the legit program to use the money for sex changes in Liberia - I’d hope, in that case, the legit funding to legit orgs would remain OK and, then, when a new admin comes in, everything can be reset. Consistently applied this would be OK with me. The grants + contracts, on their merits, are another issue. But my reading of ACB was she was distinguishing previous work billed but left unpaid. If that’s her niche then the other things apply as well. There is an old adage for weasel judges to get things off the docket through procedural mechanisms so they don’t have to make actual decisions.
I think it would require receipt of funds or a statement that the work was completed in order to be Fraud. So if they sent an invoice and the work wasn’t done for example.
Just having an open Purchase Order wouldn’t be.
