As part of the case for #genocide, #InternationalLaw requires that there be proof of #intent. In the report on Monday, B’Tselem cited a string of dehumanizing remarks by Israeli government officials, such as a statement by Yoav Gallant, a former defense minister, that #Israel was fighting “human animals” in #Gaza. Some Israeli politicians have also said that their goal is to drive the remaining #Palestinians out of Gaza.

#IAEA #RafaelGrossi: Maybe decades, compared to what kind of activity or goals. It is true that with its reduced capabilities, it will be much more difficult for #Iran to continue at the pace it had. But this statement of the president implies a #military purpose & this is a question of #intent, it is subjective. Intentions, we do not judge, we analyze, we evaluate what we see on the ground.

Guynn: Think would need to brief that. But I don't want to concede that #intent is at issue.

#Xinis asks attorney for #KilmarAbregoGarcia to come up & address the "government misconduct" exception to #DeliberativeProcess #privilege.

[Because the privilege is not absolute & can be overcome by a showing of govt #misconduct]

Up for Abrego Garcia this time is Jonathan Cooper

Cooper: From the beginning this has been a case about govt misconduct

#Xinis: Intent to facilitate, intent to comply w/my order.

Guynn: When you refer to #intent, what are you referring to?

Xinis: Can give you cases I've been thinking about. There's a proposition that #DeliberativeProcess #privilege doesn't really apply when intent is at issue

Gives hypo: re discrimination claim by fired employee. if decision making is privileged, can never get to the issue of wrongful termination.

ALL information is biased, as are conclusions and instructions.

The 'trick' is prioritising your ideal outcomes, revieiwing sources' validity at each step, and maintaining integrity in your recommendations.

@w7voa how is this not "#ElectionInterference" if not "attemoted #VoteTheft?"

• Remember: Every #Accusation by #GOP is a #confession and/or declaration of #intent!

“Their persistence & relentlessness, even in the face of the governor & the mayor saying this is false, that shows #intent,” Chandra said. “It’s knowing, willful flouting of #criminal #law.”

>30 #BombThreats were directed at state & local govt bldgs & schools, prompting closures, the assignment of extra law enforcement protection & #security cameras. Some of the #Haitian residents have also said they feared for their #safety as public vitriol grew, & Mayor Rob Rue has received #DeathThreats.

For one thing, skeptics say, its adherents have abandoned their search for the #intent of the #framers, a quixotic task that can lead only to indeterminate answers. #Originalism as currently practiced is a modern invention whose methods have little to do w/how the founding generation conceived of the #Constitution or its method of interpretation, as recent historical research has shown. The theory’s advocates claim objectivity as one of its strengths, but the court relies on it haphazardly:

#Originalism is the assertion that judges should be guided & limited in interpreting the #Constitution solely by something original in it, although that “something” has shifted over time — from the original #intent of its #framers, to the original public #meaning of its text, to the original #law at the time of its adoption, w/various sub-theories now debated. The theory has been sharply criticized.

#Project2025RallyingCry

The previous post is a pivotal one in this thread, for it is here that the foundations of #fascism are laid.

>> Note the creep from what Americans want…to president’s OWN “agenda”…to president’s “desires”…to president’s “intent”…to power for unelected hacks

To rally against #Project2025, we need a simple unified vocabulary for consistent soundbites without unnecessary terms.

Because #Trump’s #agenda is same as #intent, consistently start with “Trump intends to…”

In dissent, Justice #Sotomayor said that rule effectively makes any prosecution of a fmr president impossible bc w/so much #evidence off-limits, #intent would be extremely difficult to prove. “The majority’s extraordinary rule has no basis in #law,” she said.
She noted that other acts protected by the #Constitution can still be used in a #criminal prosecution — e.g., most speech. Jurors are often instructed that speech alone can’t be the basis for conviction but can be used to establish #motive.

"Our researchers are regularly scanning for potential #threats & instigations of #PoliticalViolence. …we identified personal details online — #doxxing— for #MichaelCohen, his wife, & his #children. The individual who shared the information online…, likely had an #intent to #harm Cohen—providing these personal details on the Cohen family in the context of calling Cohen a 'lying bastard' & identifying him as someone who 'betrayed #Trump’….” - Daniel J. Jones, ADI president, stmnt.
