J Michael Waller@JMichaelWaller·
Here’s my experience on a DC jury: Black thug on trial for firearms violation. Three black female jurors tell the rest of us that they will refuse to convict because he could be their son or grandson (which was probably true). Four white jurors, all liberal (three females and a beta male), one a former Clinton USAID appointee, all want to convict because anyone accused of a gun violation should go to prison, and this defendant has a record. The former USAID official doesn’t want the trial to last long because she has a golf meet at Congressional Country Club. In public, some would have been big DEI virtue signalers, but not if it meant cutting into their private time. The last two are a black guy and me. He’s an engineer at the Pentagon. He looks at facts. We both agree that the police work was poor and the prosecutors provided wrong evidence (said the weapon was a .44 but I asked to see it, and it was a .45). Huge difference. Plus other sloppy evidence. The two of us wanted to convict but were persuaded by the evidence to acquit. The white liberals didn’t mind that the evidence was wrong. They wanted to convict and leave. The three black women were going to acquit regardless of evidence. All the jurors were too old to have been under the DC curriculum, but it was a case of how thoughtless and biased a DC jury pool can be. As for the judge, his strict instructions were to reach a verdict based on whether the evidence showed that the suspect had violated various DC laws on “possession” and “carrying.” He declined our requests, twice, to read how the law defines the terms. The judge just wanted a quick conviction to create case law to undermine the Heller decisions.

The people doing this think they’re the resistance; they’re really just mid-level bureaucrats who got mad that they could no longer leave the office at 4 PM or work from home daily when @PamBondi arrived. And they do not represent all DOJ career staff.

SCOOP -- Pam Bondi portraits quickly tossed into trash bins after @realDonaldTrump Trump fired her. DOJers still smarting about the time Bondi removed a career national security official over some Biden portrait still hanging on an office wall . W @KDilanianMSNOW ms.now/news/pam-bondi…

An American man who says he knows he’s getting ripped off when he goes to Chipotle has finally whipped out a scale to measure how much chicken he’s really getting, only to find his $12 bowl contains barely two grams of chicken. I don’t know about you, but I remember going to Chipotle in 2015 and never being able to finish it.

@LouisvilleGun To be fair, that's not a bad choice for people who are barely competent weapons handlers, by which I mean cops. I know for a lot of cops, before short-barreled ARs became popular, their patrol rifles were semi-auto MP5s

This week's CNN poll was pretty brutal for Pete Hegseth. 35% approval, 65% disapproval. That's -30. 76% of independents and 26% of GOP-leaners disapprove. A month ago, @QuinnipiacPoll showed him -15 (37%-52%).

"It's also important to remember how much more inclusive this era is than Apollo ever was." CBS News' Mark Strassmann describes watching the Artemis II launch from just a few miles away, and how the crew's diversity signals a new era for inclusivity in space travel. cbsn.ws/4vcQ21d

@HavocTwoOne There is a lot of valuable how-to information in that video. It is basically a how-to video disguised as entertainment

Star Wars actor John Boyega explained why he doesn’t watch Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones in 2017: “There are no Black people in Game of Thrones,” he said. “You don’t see one Black person in Lord of the Rings. I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen. Thoughts?
