We are witnessing with despair the iniquitous use of hunger as a weapon of war. Burning crops, stealing livestock, and blocking aid are tactics increasingly used by armed militias. As civilians languish in misery, political elites grow fat with impunity. It is time to sanction these abuses and hold accountable those who are responsible for it.

Damn. This setup is a literal gangster's paradise

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

Chris Wallace just drained the energy from CNN's studio, announcing Trump may soon have the chance to reshape the U.S. government.

1. “If Donald Trump is elected president, it means that they can confirm, without any Democratic votes, any appointment he makes to his Cabinet, to the government, to the Supreme Court, should there be a vacancy. It's an enormous advantage to a president.”

2. “In the House, although that hasn't been decided yet, the Republicans have flipped three Democratic seats. The Democrats haven't flipped a single Republican seat.”

3. “So there is the possibility here of a complete, united Republican government with Donald Trump as the president and with a Republican House and Senate, which means that in terms of appointments, in terms of immigration policy, economic policy, environmental policy, you name it, he could have a pretty blank check.”

Wow!

A UN member State attacking the UN itself. Intolerable.

While this decision does not expressly overturn any precedent, I wonder if we can now consider Ppl. v. Belocura (2014) as a stray ruling. There, SC affirmed warrantless search on one driving a spurious government plate; the statutory penalty for such violation wasn't imprisonment

[ohlistic @ohlistic]

SC reiterates: there can be no valid warrantless search as an incident to a lawful arrest when the suspect has been apprehended for a traffic violation that is not penalized by imprisonment. (Ridon v. People, G.R. No. 252396, 6 Dec 2023) https://t.co/bp9QoJk2xJ

Indeed.

There are so many abusive professors in law school that is tolerated by management. A lot of law schools are notorious to have "darts" professors; they won't even show you your paper and the breakdown of your grades.

Official text of newly-enacted Anti-Financial Account Scamming Act (RA 12010); penalties for operating schemes to obtain control over one's financial accounts now as high as life imprisonment. Increased obligations on banks to protect customer accounts. https://t.co/TFaZpA8aPh

Clarifying past rulings, SC rules that treachery in murder may occur even if killing takes place in the presence of other people who could have aided the victims. Only the defense that may be made by offended party is material to treachery. (Ppl. v. Sia, G.R. 262603, 16 Apr 2023)

The variance doctrine cannot justify conviction of accused for estafa through false pretenses where the misrepresentations alleged in Information differ from pretenses proved by prosecution's evidence - a violation of constitutional right of accused to be informed of charges.

John Oliver has just said out loud that Israel is committing genocide, on HBO and his YouTube channel with 10 million subscribers.

HE JUST DID.

[Mike Navallo @mikenavallo]

Incredible to see the volume of “breaking” news based on single anonymous sources and opinions disguised as reports. And the amount of punditry by just about anyone with a platform, regardless of background and expertise.

Watching all of these unfold. Taking notes.

For commentary to constitute contempt of court, it must appear that it interferes and humiliates the dispensation of justice. Applying the clear and present danger standard in assessing if the remark may be punished, is appropriate. (Stradcom v. Failon, G.R. 190980, 10 Oct 2022)
