Apparently there is a new shooting involving ICE in LA?

Ignore the faggot title, but great 10 second clip from trump Davos speach where he says "if it wasent for us you would all be speaking German"

If Trump literally never said anything other than how much Europe fucking sucks, we'd have a two-thirds majority in Congress come the midterms.
I'm just disappointed that it turned into a stump speech halfway through. He was obviously on prompt until he started talking about Greenland.
 
Members of Congress have no power to intervene into a criminal case to ensure that a federal law is followed (re:Epstein act)

This seems fair. Going amici curiae into a criminal case is a weird way to enforce a Congressional law against the DOJ.

Besides, it's supposed to only be advisory.

An amicus curiae is not a party. The function of an amicus curiae is to provide a court with assistance in evaluating issues before it. And it is black letter law that amici curiae cannot make independent motions or inject new issues that have not been pursued by any party or raised by the Court.

Such is the case here. The Representatives do not seek to opine on any live issue before the Court... And the appointment of a neutral to supervise DOJ’s compliance with the EFTA is far afield from any matter pending before the Court. It is thus not a permitted form of amicus participation.

stuff like Caesar saying the Celts burn human sacrifices in a wickerman
He also said that they learned thousands of lines of poetry by heart (this I find very plausible), and were in his time complaining about how writing was ruining people's memory. It's one of my favorite tidbits of how old is the phenomenon of people complaining about technology ruining some human faculty.
