The @latimesopinion editorial page has multiple editorials this week on the @LASuperiorCourt Pre-Arraignment Release Protocol, which many refer to as $0 bail.
Editorial: Voters said no to ending money bail in 2020. Why is L.A. County doing it anyway? (via @latimesopinion ) latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

Where does decision refusing removal leave Meadows? In a very bad place. He gambled heavily on winning & then getting immunity. Now his ability to cooperate w/ either Jack Smith or Fani Willis is a) of much less value & b) possibly even off the table. He is in a world of hurt.

This version of Bach’s first cello suite was recorded live in the Great Smoky Mountains. I’ve always thought of Suite No. 1 as “Nature at Play,” so it was a dream to play it with the birds, the trees, and the rushing brook. ▶️ yoyoma.lnk.to/natureatplay

Fani Willis’s just-filed supplemental brief zeroes in on these lines on inquiry and as much as accuses Meadows of perjury. He’s in the soup. Litman: Trump’s Chief of Staff Mark Meadows seems to think he can avoid prosecution. Here’s how latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

Is today Indictment Thursday? It would make sense of a lot of the data. But remember that once voted out, the indictment will be sealed and go to a judge who will unseal, which depending on when it occurs could be the next day.

Replying to @Lawrence
@Lawrence reporting the Trump lawyers girding for the indictment to come tomorrow. The one gap in the public knowledge is the apparent lack of a final meeting. But Trump attorneys surely wd know if they’ve decided to pass or if it’s already happened without the public’s awareness

🧵For context, this is the @latimes column I penned in August of 2022 that according to @TheAtlantic @TimAlberta's deep dive into CNN, had CEO Chris Licht bragging to his friends that he would "destroy" me. Link: latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

weird to retweet my own tweet! but this is really the key point that most everyone seems to be missing--
OK I've looked at the Rust case more carefully.Under NMex and get crim law, state must prove "criminal negligence," --> "gross deviation from the std of care a reas person wd employ." This case was overcharged. Looking forward to discussing w/ @thelauracoates on @cnn at 11 PM ET.

"History has taught them that when push comes to shove, the Republican “leadership” will always back down & placate the extremists...There’s a reason the official policy of the US government is to not negotiate with terrorists..." I write for the @latimes latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

I don’t believe that I’ve ever seen a court reject a proposed amicus brief, especially from eminent amici like the Former GOP prosecutors Cannon just refused to hear from. That’s now several bizarre & non-judicial moves, starting w/ her first announcement of intent to grant SM.

CNN had let @JohnJHarwood go. This after releasing @brianstelter. Pretty obvious @Acosta will be next. In light of this I wanted to re-up this piece I wrote the other week for the @latimes about how CNN’s new leadership is betraying journalism. latimes.com/opinion/story/20…
