Again, if whatever testimony you offer could incriminate you, you are not obligated to give that testimony and can take the 5th. A prosecutor cannot even propose such a deal.She already plead guilty, so her trial is over and double jeopardy would apply. It's her testimony about her other co-defendants that they are interested in, so the self-incrimination part of the 5th doesn't really apply.
Again, 5th Amendment. Technically anything she reveals as truth could be self incriminating. So she could take the 5th and answer nothing and not be liable for perjury.The 5th Amendment also shields against double jeopardy. Given that she plead guilty to lesser charges, she can't be charged again, unless her testimony might potentially include other crimes not already covered.
This deal basically cancels out her ability to take the 5th.
I took a look at that document:
"A number of state courts have censured bargains conditioned upon a witness's agreement to testify in a particular manner and have overturned the resulting convictions on both due process and policy grounds."
A deal can't be made to testify in a particular manner. So such deals are made with nothing more than a hope or assumption that the truth is in your favor. These deals are not an agreement for the witness to "flip" or "turn against" anybody.
Where does it say that Powell agreed to turn against Trump or testify negatively against Trump.Such plea deals are a common strategy used by prosecutors to get accomplices to testify against the real target (in this case, Donald Trump).
ACCOMPLICE TESTIMONY UNDER CONTINGENT PLEA
AGREEMENTS
In a criminal case the prosecutor will often make a plea agree-
ment with an accomplice of the defendant. Under these tradition-
ally sanctioned agreements the accomplice receives a reduced
sentence in return for full and truthful testimony during the defend-
ant's trial. In recent years, some prosecutors have further condi-
tioned the accomplice's reduction in sentence upon the defendant's
indictment or conviction or the prosecutor's satisfaction with the ac-
complice's testimony.
She pleaded guilty to misdemeanors and is receiving no jailtime and almost no punishment except for probation and a relatively smallish fine. For comparison a traffic violation is a misdemeanor. She was initially charged with seven felonies. Looks more like she essentially won her case, tbh.
Attorney ethics rules in Texas require disbarment for "serious crimes," a category that includes "any misdemeanor involving theft, embezzlement, or fraudulent or reckless misappropriation of money or other property; or any attempt, conspiracy, or solicitation of another to commit" such a crime.
The following experiment has truly never been done before and it would truly settle the "debate" if done right:
But there's A LOT more since the mass vaxx, and steadily on the rise year after year.There are also a lot more chemical additives and preservatives in processed food and all sorts of nasty chemicals in the environment than there were back in the day. But that couldn't have anything to do with what's going on now, could it? Nah. Gotta be the vaxxes.
Maybe not that particular test, but they do have experience with a number of other long distance line-of-sight tests. I would think that the principles would be pretty much the same.I have no involvement in the TROPPO LoRa project, so you would be better off asking the authors of the paper that I cited. I'm sure that they would be more than happy to answer any reasonable questions that you have about tropospheric LoRa propagation.
That has nothing to do with the 830 mile line-of-sight test, LIAR.
I'm sure that the My Pillow guy is working on it and will deliver a massive data dump that will put the whole Biden family, all of Burisma and most of the Ukrainian government behind bars forever.https://thefederalist.com/2023/09/29/yes-the-biden-impeachment-hearing-presented-evidence-of-corruption-lots-of-it/Quotemounds of damning evidence now piling up by the day, including the release on Wednesday by the House Ways and Means Committee of reams of text messages and emails between Hunter Biden, his uncle James Biden, and a colorful array of foreign oligarchs, business associates, and bagmen.
hey which one of those is joe biden
I know the evidence against Joe is coming any day now, and I'm sure whatever it might be it will be damning.
Nah. He's just using a different definition of "blacked out" than most of the rest of the English speaking world.all of the news outlets are acknowledging that an impeachment inquiry has begun
What? You mean this guy on Twitter is lying? Surely not!
Would you please post the specifications of the antennas used? Line-of-sight does not necessarily mean highly directional.It sounds like they were lucky enough to catch an exceptionally long tropospheric duct.

With the growth of LoRa deployments there are plenty of anecdotal reports of very long wireless links, well beyond the line of sight. Most reports suggest that these links are related to anomalous tropospheric propagation. We developed a platform to study tropospheric links based on TheThingsNetwork, a popular LoRaWAN-based infrastructure.
Absolute nonsense.
Do you realize what line-of-sight at sea level means? It means it has nothing to do with the troposphere which is claimed to be at an average height of 8.1 MILES above sea level.
Not nonsense to you? Post the math that make it work in this case. But remember that nothing is pointing up to the troposphere, that only happens in your imagination.I have no involvement in the TROPPO LoRa project, so you would be better off asking the authors of the paper that I cited. I'm sure that they would be more than happy to answer any reasonable questions that you have about tropospheric LoRa propagation.

The Tweet is claiming that the big television networks are not covering it.That depends on what level of coverage you're looking for. If you want wall to wall coverage, then you're out of luck, but all of the news outlets are acknowledging that an impeachment inquiry has begun. But, then again, what do you expect when even a number of Republicans are saying that there doesn't appear to be much of any evidence of wrongdoing?
This joke of a partisan judgment claiming that there were inflated property values will be appealed and isn't going anywhere. For example, the judge in this case valued Mar-a-Lago at $18 Million.What a property is worth and what it would list for are not always the same. If someone wants to pay $300 million for a property that Trump paid $10 million for, then that that's up to them.
Please explain why projecting the image of a round earth onto a flat surface should invalidate any predictions that a round earth model would make.You do realize that this is essentially the same thing as saying that "GPS proves the curvature" like ichoosenonsense claimed, right? It's all done on paper from a mathematical model of the ball Earth. In reality no one has measured the curvature. Ever.Do you realize that a mathematical model of the ball earth can make predictions can can be verified in reality but won't work on a flat earth?
This is an unfortunate comment because it shows that you haven't looked at the material that your globe-defending friend provided.
It explains that you can project the imaginary ball's curvature onto a flat plane no problem by using the so-called "Snake Projection" method, and it is mathematically valid.
No, I meant what I said. Personal satisfaction has nothing to do with it.It may not be possible to measure the curvature to your satisfaction, but it is possible to verify the consequences of that curvature.
You mean that you are personally satisfied that it exists, which is different.
It looks bad but the box checked is "non-final disposition" so dunno what that means overall.
Mr. Kise also asked whether the ruling meant that Mr. Trump would have to sell assets including Trump Tower and 40 Wall Street, a downtown commercial property, or whether they could be managed by an independent receiver who the judge said would oversee the dissolution of the canceled companies.I think that it means that they're not quite sure what it means overall either, but they'll figure something out eventually.
Justice Engoron did not provide a clear response. After huddling with his law clerk, Allison Greenfield, he told Mr. Kise that he appreciated his concern and understood the question.
“I’m not prepared to issue a ruling right now, but we will take that up in various contexts I’m sure,” he said. He granted Mr. Kise’s request for 30 days to devise a plan for implementing the order.
