If you want a break from real life mayhem, I have two “real lawyer reacts” ideas: The movie “Enough” starring Jennifer Lopez. The tagline of the movie is “self defense is not murder”, but I’m pretty sure what she does in the finale is absolutely murder. She plays a battered wife trying to escape her crooked cop husband, taking their daughter with her. A metric TON of laws are broken on either side, plus it would be interesting to hear what legal options are actually available to victims of abuse. Second idea is WAY more lighthearted: The Bluey episode “family meeting”. It’s trial court 101 for kids and does a decent job showing kids how all that works…sorta 😂 there’s plenty of inaccuracies, but it’s a fun little legal romp to take a break from all the trump/real life nonsense. Love your work, you kept me sane through all the election lawsuits 😅 your channel is truly educational and cuts through all the chaos of real world to deliver facts and humor.

That 'unless we are prohibited from doing so (e.g., an order under 18 U.S.C. 2705(b)' is incredibly hilariously damning. Truly, the best legal team ever.

Heck, I'm not even a lawyer and I've had hilarious court sessions where our side concluded with me putting on a veiled insult against the other party, an arrogant lawyer. He then spent his full 20 minutes ranting and raving about me, while the judge's eyes rolled back further and further. Then the clock struck and.... he hadn't actually made an argument. And since he was the demanding party that means he lost by default. Which is good news because he had a decent case and my client had a pretty weak one. Now do I think it's good proper lawfare to call someone a lawbreaker in a court of law? Naah. But for 200 per hour plus VAT I'll happily do it and zone out for a while while the opposing side is losing their sh*t. 😆

Oh, obviously it's a different situation. Hillary Clinton was running for president in 2016. Donald Trump is running for president in 2024. Totally different situations and to claim otherwise is to be weaponizing the legal system unfairly against political opposition. See, this is the sort of legal argument you learn to make when you go to law school. Or at least the same law schools Trump's legal henchmen attended where apparently huffing paint is part of basic contract law and suffering severe head trauma is part of a mock court case.

I love it when people believe they're correct. No. An NDA is an agreement between two signatories not to discuss a given topic outside of certain circumstances. You are specifically agreeing not to talk about something. The government will not tell you that you can’t disclose whatever is covered by the NDA. However, they will enforce judgements against you, should the other signatory choose to take you to court over your breaking of your contractual agreement with them. In other words, you’re still free to say whatever you like, from a First Amendment standpoint. You’ve just agreed not to talk about certain things and - if you do - you’ve agreed to certain penalties as part of the NDA language.

They really did just self-report on their own schemes. Oh and to head off any commenter that tries to bring up "Muh Twitter Files:" they have similar requests from Trump campaign teams that they respected, and the Tweets actually removed by the documents featured in the "Twitter Files" were all reposts of private images featuring Biden's Son's Penis, fully-nude, that any citizen has the right to take down for privacy concerns. They were not opposing political opinions, subjects, or free-speech. They were not biased towards either political aisle, unlike now where they literally go out of their way to allow an hour-or-so long hate-speech video onto the site after it was repeatedly flagged for hate-speech, or attempting to notify someone under criminal investigation of those requests, just watch the video for that story.

It would be interesting to argue that any NDA is against 1. amendment, given how often it is used to silence "too poor to engage in legal battle", not just when it happens in rich-folk's backyard.

Real talk, all I keep thinking is these are the type of scumbags who employ aggressive NDAs to keep anyone from talking about the shit they pull. It's almost like they don't even realize they are arguing against their own standards.

@damp2269 9 ай бұрын

my guess, is that there is no issue against I amendment because you are not forced into it. you can always move on and not be party to whatever information is protected. not a lawyer tho...

More an interesting argument cause he is currently suing former Tesla employees for breaking NDA. Or that he used NDAs to compel silence from former Twitter employees by threatening to revoke their contracted termination payouts (which is being investigate by state regulators)

In some cases, it's because the client demands the lawyer takes an indefensible position. So the lawyer does what they can. In other cases, it's because the client has a history of refusing to pay bills. So competent lawyers go elsewhere. Or it's both.

I have a lot of friends who were duped into thinking Ketamine is a harmless drug (yeah, basically the Burning Man sort of crowd). Elon Musk is the most public example possible of how it can destroy lives. It's not a guilt-free alternative to just drinking like a normal person.

Lot safer than most things when used in moderation but yea does a load on your kidneys and can be addictive. Given how expensive it is and how hard it is for someone outside of the festival/wook crowd it's hard to get addicted for practical reasons. Ketamine is a great drug, Lotta medical use, fun as hell but yea its far from harmless. You ain't coming back from a K addiction like you could from H or booze.

"Elon Musk is the most public example possible of how it can destroy lives." Elon Musk is an example of Ketamine use? Is that supposed to make sense?
