Ex-Trump aide Manafort's fraud case in New York dismissed

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-manafort/ex-trump-aide-manaforts-fraud-case-in-new-york-dismissed-idUSKBN1YM1NY

Quote
Manafort, 70, has been serving his sentence at a federal prison in Pennsylvania, but was hospitalized last week for what his lawyer called a cardiac incident.

He did not attend Wednesday’s hearing but his lawyer, Todd Blanche, said “obviously, we are very happy” with the dismissal. Manafort had pleaded not guilty.

“This indictment should never have been brought, and today’s decision is a stark reminder that the law and justice should always prevail over politically motivated actions,” Blanche said in a statement.




And another Dem judge (and DA) get their butts spanked.

US government is entitled to all Snowden book proceeds, judge rules

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2019/12/us-government-is-entitled-to-all-snowden-book-proceeds-judge-rules/

Quote
The US government is entitled to every cent Edward Snowden earns from publishing his memoir, Permanent Record, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday. During his employment at the CIA and NSA, Snowden signed contracts promising to seek pre-clearance from those agencies before publishing any book or other publication containing classified materials. If he failed to do so, the contracts said, Snowden would forfeit any proceeds to the federal government.




Seems fair. :)

So the twitterverse is moronically turning on JK Rowling after she finally made a tweet that pissed them off. After her years of SJW pandering and idiotic missteps and offensive bullshit steeped in far-left nonsense, she tweeted support for Maya Forstater, a woman who lost her job and faced a government inquisition because she stated that biological sex cannot be changed. Yesterday a UK judge ruled in her case that her political view- that biological sex is decided by genetics- is "absolutist" and "The approach is not worthy of respect in a democratic society."
Its a society in which a judge can rule that your free speech doesn't exist because your scientifically accurate opinion is "not worthy", and a crowd of SJWs will attempt to lynch anyone who defends your free speech rights even if they're the most far-left cuntbag to begin with
So now JK Rowling is getting labeling a terf and has the goon squad after her

Forstater’s initial tweet read, “What I am so surprised at is that smart people who I admire, who are absolutely pro-science in other areas, and champion human rights & womens rights are tying themselves in knots to avoid saying the truth that men cannot change into women (because that might hurt mens feelings).”

Judge James Tayler ruled that Forstater’s termination was valid since her “absolutist” beliefs regarding biological sex includes referring to a person “by the sex she considered appropriate even if it violates their dignity and/or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment.” "The approach is not worthy of respect in a democratic society."
