My new favorite phrase is "legally imminent." (Willis told reporter Tamar Hallerm, "I meant legally imminent, not reporter imminent.")https://twitter.com/TamarHallerman/status/1625268419577651201From Mike Luckovich, cartoonist for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

@Teri_Kanefield Which is twice as funny when juxtaposed against Brandenburg v. Ohio discussions.

@LouisIngenthron In this case we have imminent lawfulness, which is much slower than imminent lawlessness

@Teri_Kanefield apparently Trumps lawyers are going to try to get the entire case dismissed due to the Khors media appearances. How likely is it that they succeed?

@PITTERSPLATTER They won't. that motion will lose. But this is what I meant when I warned people that indictments are not the end of the story. It's the beginning.

@Teri_Kanefield Oh for sure. An indictment is the start of a process, not the end. One of the many things I've learned from you in fact. Your expertise and writing has been extremely valuable to me over the last few years.

@PITTERSPLATTER This particular one will lose, but it's one of the reasons she should have shut up (even though she never actually broke any rules).

@Teri_Kanefield "Legally imminent" = "too late for your next Tweet"

@Teri_Kanefield The Legal world has it's own language and that in itself is kind of the problem. That it has it's OWN language and not the language of society. If the legal world functioned in the language of society it might be far more efficient instead of the legal quagmires we see now and misinterpretations.

@antonioserrata You cannot have rule of law without specific legal terms.There is no way for a court to write a balancing test if words are not used with more precision than is used by the general population.For example, "negligence" must have a specific meaning so that the law can be uniformly applied.

@Teri_Kanefield That does not address the fundamental problem. Imminent for instance means something. In a legal context that clearly means something else entirely thus changing the language society associates it with. It's an absurdity of language just like the made up word of affluenza that was allowed into legal language that got someone off because they're wealthy. It's absurd. Legal terms are fine. BUT they need to adhere to common language to work. Allowed to be distorted, that's the issue

@Teri_Kanefield Negligence is a poor example in that it actually is one of those terms that still conforms to normal societal language. Imminent and Affluenza among other terms are far more fluid in the legal world. Affluenza is a made up word that was used as a valid legal argument that should never have been tolerated and yet it was. THAT is the fundamental problem in the legal system. Imminent. Not weeks. but VERY soon. The fluidity of the terms and ability to make up words is the problem

@Teri_Kanefield Imminent in society means very soon, not weeks or months which is what the legal version seems to allude to and what we're seeing. Even in other industries where there's their own thing like military or IT, ALL adhere to common societal language even if they use acronyms to simplify it. Legal world however distorts language to suit it's needs. THAT is the problem I'm referring to. See the Affluenza example.

@antonioserrata Tony, you're missing the humor.She was joking.The comment was funny.If you read my FAQs you'll find out that it is not always possible to anticipate how long things will take, particularly with GJ presentations

@Teri_Kanefield Fair enough. Given the lack of accountability for Trump and the sore spot it's got for me and many others, it's a bit more of a sore point as well as a joke. BUT yes I can understand the humor in the artwork. Makes the point. Just seeing alot of people make the "Imminent" argument to rationalize why it's taking so long.

@Teri_Kanefield I have read the FAQs, I can agree with it to a point. At some point tho something has to give. Watching how slow this process has been as Trump is running again is concerning because I feel there's gonna be more can kicking if he's not indicted this year. And if ANY Republican wins next year, it's over for American Democracy.

@antonioserrata If you read the FAQ pages, you didn't fully understand them, so read them again.Read this again:https://terikanefield.com/all-new-doj-investigation-faqs/Then read this:https://terikanefield.com/frequently-asserted-rage-inducing-simplifications/If you have no interest in carefully rereading those pages, please let me know.Thanks.

@Teri_Kanefield Ok wow. The talking down doesn't really help. I have a perspective on the matter based on what I see and I'm far from the only person with this view. Others hold similar views where we were MUCH more hopeful during the 2017-2019 times for SOME accountability, I was being civil and respectful to you on this. There really wasn't a need to talk down to me on this.

@antonioserrata Tony, one more try. Yes, a lot of people feel the way you do. Each week, about 20 people give me the same lines.I cannot respond individually to each person, so I put hours into writing my FAQs.I also spend a lot of time answering questions. Unlike the people working you into a rage, I do not monetize. I wrote the FAQs so I don't wear myself out with each person repeating the same talking points.I will not respond again until you read the pages.

@Teri_Kanefield alright, there are bounds, apparently. Still more than we deserve and I hope you'll always save some for yourself. Peace
