NOTABLE: The denial came after none of the court's 11 members requested a vote on Trump's call for a rehearing. Any one of the 11 members could have made the request.
OK shameless self promotion time. Here is my personal website featuring all of my original #StarTrek#DoctorWho and #DC#LEGO builds, including my 4 foot #USSEnterprise project from 2020. Feel free to take a peek (and kindly boost if you like what you see):
Yesterday, Aaron Bushnell, an active-duty member of the Air Force and an anarchist, set fire to himself in front of the Israeli embassy in #DC, in what they called an "extreme act of protest" against the ongoing genocide and ethnic-cleansing of #Gaza by the state of Israel.
Bushnell was involved in various mutual aid projects.
Already, far-Right grifters and pundits have attacked his anarchist beliefs as signs of him being mentally "disturbed."
Bushnell's death comes as Israel prepares to invade #Rafah, where over a million Palestinian refugees have been pushed into tent cities.
A federal appeals court in Washington, #DC on Friday upheld but narrowed the #GagOrder that had been imposed on #Trump in his DC election interference case prohibiting him from making critical comments about potential witnesses and prosecutors. #legal#TrumpIndictment
As expected, #Trump has now appealed this decision to the #DC Circuit
Dec 1:
The DC indictment against Trump survives two of his attempts to get it dismissed with #Chutkan ruling against him on presidential immunity and first amendment claims #TrumpIndictment#legal

Storms coming through now. #SevereWeather
Hello #MastoAdmin, if you are a small (lets say under 100 active) instance in #Pennsylvania, #Delaware, #Maryland, #DC, or #Virginia and want to join my #relay, follow the instructions at https://relay.epistolary.org/ and link to the "local" federated feed. Right now it's open-ish, hopefully people are generally good enough that we can keep it that way. 👀
From 1978, an example of how Congress is both a) car-brained and b) hostile to DC:
The Senator who pushed the US to adopt right-on-red "as a gasoline-saving measure" bullied DC into it b/c he didn’t want to wait at traffic lights while driving from Bethesda.
FYI: #MSNBC will air this live in minutes, audio only.
Trump’s only there for 2 reasons: To show how aggrieved he is and to use the photo opp to spew more lies and smears to incite his base… all to get votes to stay out of prison.
