The permanent #injunction ends Giuliani’s yrs of attacks on Freeman & Moss.
It also gives the women #power to hold him accountable if he ever again suggests they took votes from #Trump /gave votes to #Biden
We’re witnessing a concerted effort by #Trump & #MAGA#politicians to cast doubt on the legitimate & strong #FultonCounty#ElectionInterference case by attacking the prosecutor. It’s an effort that takes advantage of every avenue of #government#power to which Trump’s allies have access. Their goal? #Delay#accountability for Trump’s alleged attempt to illegally overturn a presidential election.
States and corporations have almost unlimited power over the life of simple individual. A madman on top of state hierarchy could kill 100 000 of innocents and get away with it, while you may have a prison sentence because of a comment in the web. If you, like us, anarcho-mystics – think, that this is unfair -Turn your mind into a weapon!

Still 547,131 customers without power in Texas (!) - usually about 3 people per customer, so that's 1.5M people without power in sweltering conditions. #TXwx#power
Earlier this week, a box I haven’t seen in over a year appeared in our office elevator.
The brown box is marked for emergencies, and includes water, cookies and diapers — in case you are trapped inside the elevator when the power goes out.
Electrical engineers had been able to come up with various plans to keep the #power on, but this week, they started coming up short, he said. Electrical imports from other countries can only do so much, and consumer demand went up due to a cold snap in #ukraine
Centerpoint Energy "A fast moving but severe weather system has caused widespread power outages across the service area. As a result, outage updates via Outage Tracker and Power Alert Service® as well as our ability to provide estimated restoration times may be delayed or unavailable. They are still the best way to receive the most up-to-date information as it becomes available and we appreciate your patience as we work to restore service." #TXwx#Houston#Power
After pleading #guilty to #MoneyLaundering & #obstruction of #justice, Paul #Manafort, the globe-trotting #political consultant & former campaign chairman for #Trump, asked for leniency in his sentencing, telling a federal judge 5 yrs ago that he was nearly 70, struggling w/health concerns & remorseful for his actions.
The judge rejected his entreaties…, ordering #Manafort to remain behind bars for >7 yrs. <2 yrs later, however, Manafort’s #criminal record was wiped clean when #Trump#pardoned him among the dozens of allies, extended family members & fmr campaign staffers allowed to walk free. W/his freedom, Manafort hardly retired to a quiet home life. Instead, the longtime #power broker —briefly brought low by the investigation into #Russian#ElectionInterference— reengaged in international consulting.
The prosecution asks that the defense be precluded from asking #StormyDaniels whether she was arrested. Justice #Merchan agrees w/the prosecutors, saying that “anybody can be arrested” & that it “doesn’t prove anything.”
The people call Stormy Daniels back to the stand
#Trump atty #Necheles begins questioning by saying that in 2011, Daniels denied having had sex w/Trump.
#Necheles questions #StormyDaniels’s assertion that she felt a #power imbalance w/ #Trump before their sexual encounter. Necheles cuts Daniels off as she's talking, prompting prosecutors to ask the judge to permit the witness to answer.
Necheles insinuates that Daniels is making up her feeling that Trump was overpowering her. Daniels gives perhaps her strongest testimony of the morning:
“My own insecurities made me feel that way," she says, her voice never wavering.
Russia is in control Putin more than ever now! It is the beginning of dictatorship.
Vladimir Putin began his fifth term as Russian leader at a glittering Kremlin inauguration, setting out on another six years in office after destroying his political opponents, launching a devastating war in Ukraine and concentrating all power in his hands.
You might be as surprised as I was when I heard that it really takes a #photon between 10,000 and 170,000 years from its origin in the core of the #sun to the surface of the sun.
"Theoretical models [...] indicate a maximum #power density [...] of approximately 276.5 watts per cubic metre [...] which is about the same power density inside a #compost pile." 😲
