0 PS: “Restorative justice” is an alternative (or supplement) to traditional criminal punishment. It often involves the offender meeting with the victim. https://t.co/j9ESpwpG9h 42% is still a big rise, though. If accurate, wouldn’t seem to be a sign of success for Boudin. https://t.co/j6O5LriE85

0 It’s as if you build an addition to your house. Your neighbor says it’s illegal and sues. Neighbor gets injunction, so the addition is removed–but you appeal. Then the court says you can’t live in your house (additionless!) unless you drop the appeal. Seems crazy & coercive.

0 Twitter’s “appeal” process: Coulter’s tweet is deleted. It will stay deleted while she appeals. What is rationale for not letting her tweet while she awaits the verdict-ie saying she can resume tweeting only if she *drops* her appeal? Would never pass muster in judicial system. https://t.co/r70f6u3WnL

0 Important figure in what someone–maybe Kinsley–called Pigfucker Culture–as in greeting an important lawyer or Senator: ‘You old pigfucker.” I also remember, “Everytime you’re here the cockroaches start coming out of the walls.” No longer pretentious enough for #thistown https://t.co/Pxieblf8SM

"The last thing the president wanted to see as he kick-starts his campaign was the architect of his last campaign hauled away in handcuffs …" Hmm. I can think of about 100 things that he'd want to see less than that. … Sweetheart, get me badwrite! https://t.co/gNKy196XFy

Rushfield on the Great Ron Meyer Mystery: 1) Seems more complex and (he notes) more pathetic than deskbound notions of sexism & privilege & casting couches; 2) he's got a theory 3) great paragraph on fate of Hollywood ex-gods Ovitz, Katzenberg, Diller etc https://t.co/SfaP4Ve0Kq https://t.co/EsDIEw0Cmu

Where @murphymike goes wrong: He says if there's a whiff of a promising vaccine result pre-election, "[t]he breathless media of our digital age will erupt. A cure is on the way!"
Not if if helps Trump, they won't. They'll do everything to knock it down. https://t.co/ljFVtYg7gj

They really shouldn't get us so excited so early: "Other officials planning to speak include Sen. Joni Ernst (Iowa)… Sen. Tim Scott (S.C.); House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.); South Dakota Gov. Kristi L. Noem; and Nikki Haley, a former governor and U.N. ambassador." https://t.co/ivv8ZPC2n8
