More than a week has passed, and my cousin, Deano, is still missing. I can’t stress how out of character it is for him to disappear. He is a devoted husband and father. If you have any information, please contact @NMStatePolice. kob.com/news/top-news/…

@KyleSGibson @JohnDHynes @ElevateFLMA @Dan_Donovan_17 @SunnySpirit1919 @Shutterbug617 @DoctorTurtleboy Imagine getting so much so wrong while being so self-assuredly convinced you are right.

Rust Update 1: Alec Baldwin's §1983, TCA, and NM Civil Rights Act lawsuit has been reinstated. Note how many MSM outlets reported the auto-dismissal due to settlement talks back in July yet now it's crickets.

In law school there's a class we take solely on remedies. There are rules regarding relief. Whoever *helped* LG apparently never took remedies because her request for relief was all over the place. Here's Judge Doolin's reaction today as Bradl said suppression and a fine.

Cosgrove was NOT endorsing sanctions. A perplexed Cosgrove, who had no authority to even speak on that matter since his resignation was approved by Judge Doolin, said LG "asks for certain remedies, uh, I'm not sure I'm on the same page with her."

MTD mega motion oral argument hearing in TB's case is scheduled for 12/5/25. Assuming MA allows it, scheduling an evidentiary hearing immediately following oral arguments could be a possibility. We saw this in Baldwin's Rust case. I wrote about it here: medium.com/@rusttrialpile…
