- New:
- Fox News host Pete Hegseth's nomination by Trump for Secretary of Defendant might be in trouble:
- This seemed to cause momentum to build in getting it sidetracked a few days ago:
- This late yesterday:
- And this stunner from the Wall Street Journal is the first time I believed he might not make it:
- Hegseth's momma went to the welcoming arms of Fox and Friends this morning to defend him.
- The declaration of martial law in South Korea was insane. It sounds like their president just hauled off and did it on national TV at 11:00 p.m. at night with no warning to anyone. The country then revolted, and he withdrew the declaration hours later. He may now be done as president.

- A couple of stories from the "Oh, my!" category.

- Very legal nerdy stuff in for Texas DWI cases: If someone passes the field sobriety tests, does that give the trial court enough to grant a Motion to Suppress based upon no probable cause to arrest and no probable cause to support a search warrant for blood? This appellate court said "no" yesterday and remanded the case back for trial. Incredible.
