  • Further proof that time in the Chair Force will lead you to seek adventures abroad: this former counterintel agent was charged with spying for Iran — the Air Force Times details how she earned an air medal
  • Here’s a unique niche for a defense lawyer — if you’re a member of the Georgia legislature you can have your cases continued indefinitely for your clients for “legislative reasons,” just like the current Speaker of the House has been doing for over a decade 
  • Lawfare has submitted an interesting FOIA request to see if the “stats” Trump cited to support his emergency declaration actually exist — I’ve got to start submitting more FOIA requests
  • “The goal would be an office that could make sure the Homeland Security, Defense and Justice departments are effectively sharing information and working toward common goals” — seems like a no-brainer that should’ve happened years ago, certainly more useful than a Space Force
  • The Manafort sentencing memo in his EDVA case is just a joy to read, plus it puts my wife to sleep
  • Generally, the chief legal officer prevents the company from running afoul of the law — this one allegedly engaged in a little foreign bribery

Bribery has got to be smooth …
