Although Merchan’s appointment may not be in violation of any particular law or procedure given the information publicly available, the net effect is that an un-elected and “acting” in a carve-out.
Given the latest revelation of a possible mistrial per Merchan's own notice to both parties, I have to wonder why?
It seems that this is plausibly merely someone trolling the judicial system (self-identified $h! tposter).
Given the flimsy nature of this post, I wonder if releasing this information without prior, clear investigation, is merely a smokescreen for some other flaw?
I have also heard this could allow discovery from investigation into ALL the jurors activies and possible communication disclosures. I cannot see
The problem with the "news" is that they spread lies and propaganda per the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012. "News" is not news, it is scewed at best (limited hangout) and at it's worst it is outright lies.
The executive order 13757 seems dry and benign, but was instrumental in the censorship pressure applied to censor 'malinformation' whereas the other orders and acts seem more 'disinformation' oriented...?
I recall my shock at the defamation lawsuit between James O'Keefe vs NYT, when the NYT evaded culpability with the "advocacy journalism" defense. I remember being taught that was called 'yellow journalism' in the 80s.
Yep. And President Trump signed E.O. 13848 "Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in the United States Election" in September 2018.
Federal courts do not necessarily have exclusive jurisdiction over federal crimes. State and federal courts can have concurrent jurisdiction over certain crimes.
I have to agree with your thesis.

how this serves Merchan's obvious end goals.

Your work is still solid.

There was also S.2692 Countering Information Warfare Act of 2016. I am uncertain why it is indicating that this was only introduced. https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/senate-bill/2692/text There are two reports from Last American Vagabond about it passing and being signed into law by BHO. https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/obama-quietly-signs-countering-disinformation-propaganda-act-law/

It is yellow journalism. Rand did a good job explaining yellow journalism / truth decay in this video.

I originally rebelled against the term Fake News cause we already had a term for it, Yellow Journalism 😅
I have been searching and reading more about how yellow journalism began. I located a good article.

That certainly fits, will add it to my OneNote list
Wasn't there an Obama exec order too? Or is this just another name for it? I'll have to hunt it down.
