@law My partner, @mal_practice, and I are planning a relocation to Copenhagen.

We're exploring options for her to utilize her U.S. JD skillset in lieu of practicing law directly in the Danish legal system, without significant retraining.

Has anyone here done something similar, or knows someone who can speak to the possibilities?

Boosts appreciated! 🔁

Trump threatened today to attack Oman if it interferes with US efforts in the #StraitOfHormuz, as the conflict with Iran continues & a 2-month window for peace talks expires without a path to end the war.

“If Oman gets in the way, we’ll bomb the shit out of them,” Trump said vulgarly in an interview with FauxNews.

Horrible

A #Texas court has slashed the $50 million judgment to $1.5 million against Infowars founder #AlexJones over falsely calling 2012 #SandyHook #SchoolShooting a hoax.

The ruling does not affect a $1.4 billion judgement against Jones in Connecticut, but is a significant legal victory for Jones after he & his company, Free Speech Systems, were found liable for damages for claiming the #MassShooting didn’t happen.
