It may be early for a news post, but I’m so pleased that I don’t want to wait.
Breaking: In a 23 page ruling, Judge McAfee rules insufficient evidence of impropriety and that Fani Willis can continue to prosecute the RICO indictment.

I have gotten so tired of judicial overreach that it’s a happy surprise when it doesn’t happen. When it comes to the courts right now, I feel like the dog that expects to be beaten, rather than the dog that is occasionally beaten. What a relief this ruling is!
In other news, I had misinterpreted Alvin Bragg’s “I won’t object to a 30-day delay”. He apparently wasn’t volunteering for a 30-day delay on this – this was more of him setting down a marker – along the lines of I can live with a 30-day delay because of this bullshit, but it had better not be longer than that.
Totally open thread.
Update: Oh, and if you donated for a match for Worker Power in AZ overnight, you can let me know in the comments here. frosty’s match is still active, so all donations up to $25 per person are being matched.
