This is false. I have a son. He is physically capable of pregnancy. You can say this as many times as you want. But it won't make it true. And here's the part that will blow your mind: It has always been thus. — PolitiTweet.org

@msbellows I appreciate you and others bringing it to my attention and I apologize to the FOIA officer at DOJ who for a few minutes had a FOIA request with an error in it. — PolitiTweet.org

@ncweaver My one concern about this nominee is that @scottjshapiro or someone else might think I'm offering a subtle peace offering to @RichardGrenell. So I'm putting Grinnell in the #BeastlyQueue with the explicit notation that this is not the case. — PolitiTweet.org

Special points to any person not named @S_R_Anders who can identify the FOIA request used as my template.... Hint: There's a @lawfareblog about it. — PolitiTweet.org

@msbellows I'm aware, thanks, and have already sent a corrected version of the text to the FOIA officer at OLC. — PolitiTweet.org

I also find it deplorable that the media are trying to silence Madison Cawthorn. Sometimes "trying" just isn't good enough. We actually need to demand success. — PolitiTweet.org

the jury instruction phase. And as I say, I would not be totally shocked if Judge Cooper dropped a bomb here—though I think it unlikely. He asked prosecutors some pointed questions as to whether they could imagine ANY case which would rightly be dismissed on materiality grounds — PolitiTweet.org

allowing the prosecution to proceed at this stage. That said, the Judge treated Sussman's argument very respectfully. Look for, at a minimum, a very careful opinion that does not preclude revisiting the matter later under Rule 29 and that perhaps punts aspects of the question to — PolitiTweet.org

...lets it go to the jury, he gets to instruct the jury and can do so in a fashion that would make a conviction very difficult (which it will be anyway given the one witness/very vague nature of the case). So the balance of risk on the judge's part greatly favors... — PolitiTweet.org

The short explanation is that he gets another bite at the apple before the jury rules. If he tosses the case now, Durham goes directly to the DC Circuit. If he let's the case proceed, first of all, he can dismiss it before the jury receives it under Rule 29. And even if he... — PolitiTweet.org
