Once again, let me be the first to advocate corporal punishment. This wouldn't happen if we'd just cut off the fingers she used to forward those documents.

It's possible to do this using one's nose and palms, or even wrist stubs.

I'm troubled by your use of quotation marks for 1 word you question, but not the others. It truly throws off my ability to consider your point, such as it it.

I think Spanky may be a German agent.

That'll teach the b---- to lie to them!

It is also a good way to disassociate DOJ and those lawyers from her misconduct, not that it helps much.

P.S. Note the punctuation, Burger.

There was an article yesterday that had her mother saying that she must have been concentrating on something else when the judge gave the order not to give transcripts to the witnesses. Given that the order was written, and if the Rule had been invoked is a pretty basic admonition, I can't imagine how she thought it would have been ok to forward transcripts to witnesses.

Was she on the trial team?

I'm not trying to excuse it, because it's not, but I can imagine she's the FAA liaison to the trial team. But she's not actually attending the trial. The trial folks send her transcripts on a group email. She gets the brilliant idea to help her "clients" by coaching them.

Think of her as in-house counsel. Do they always go the trials and pay attention to the court orders? Probably not. Not saying they shouldn't; just acknowledging reality.

No idea. I sort of got the impression that she was in the courtroom, but I don't think she was behind the bar.

This seems sort of embarrassing, given this. (spree: articles about spending and debt)

After the current administration and its progeny finish destroying our environment, infrastructure, economy and public institutions, do you think the ensuing dystopia will look more like Mad Max or Blade Runner?

My head says Mad Max but my heart wants Blade Runner - at least they had those cool flying cars.

Did you consider using the movie Brazil in this post. It would have been a better example.

Especially if you're obsessed with ducts.
