A federal judge gave Luigi Mangione permission to use a laptop from his cell to help his attorneys prepare for his trial, per an order handed down Monday.

Justin Mohn testified he killed his father in self-defense, but beheaded him for practicality's sake. He wanted to use his father's head as a prop to shock patriots into helping him expunge a "deep state" conspiracy, he said.

This is a fascinating story about state Capitol protest, and how one demonstrator has - by court order - is now must literally put his money where his mouth is.
Kudos to @jonpberg for feretting it out:

It’s wild. The Blake Lively lawsuit against her costar is an absolute PR kamehameha

Lively’s team basically:

- gathered mountains of incriminating receipts, including emails and texts that might have been leaked by the crisis comms consultant’s former employer

- waited until he thought he was in the clear, as his gloating texts showed

- ambushed him with a Friday night filing and a leak to the New York Times (my bet is Lively’s lawyers briefed the NYT on deep background), resulting in a scathing investigative piece

Trump's success Tuesday raises questions about the trajectory of any future Jan 6 case and the potential for widespread pardons ....

As voting concludes tomorrow night.... note that 600+ people were sent to prison/incarceration for attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

Many are still locked up.

More have yet to go to trial or begin serving their terms.

Victims of Jan 6 are still waiting for full justice

Why we need professional journalists: @JDVance rep tells @wsj about Anna Kilgore, a Springfield OH woman whose cat went missing in August, so @Kris_Maher drives to her house. She found the cat in her basement and apologized to her Haitian neighbors.

For the first time in decades, hundreds of incarcerated people at Dauphin County Prison got to go outside Monday.
The 45 minutes each person got in the rec yard is the first time the jail has offered fresh air and sunlight facility wide in ~20 years.

The press credentials they issued us.

What a truly horrifying and awful day

Those looking for on-the-ground perspectives of the shooting at the #TrumpRallyButlerPA should check out this fantastic reporter with CBS. @MacFarlaneNews' earnest description of what it was like being there when shots rang out is unparalleled.

@jewgazing Hello,

My name is Jon, and I'm the courts reporter with PennLive, out of Harrisburg, PA. I've read the New York Post article and some of your tweets, and was wondering if you were interested in setting the record straight. DMs are open, feel free to reach out if comfortable.
