The US Senate voted to confirm Jay Clayton as the director of national intelligence on Tuesday,
giving Trump another key ally directing the nation’s intelligence apparatus.
The tally, 51-47, fell along party lines, with all Republicans supporting his nomination and all Democrats opposing it.
Clayton, currently the US attorney for the southern district of New York, will replace Bill Pulte,
a staunch Trump loyalist who had been temporarily serving in the role since June…

Ok. I have to accept that I have a problem. Despite a massive cull a few months ago, my current Firefox tab count, across 4 windows, has crept up to 2020. This madness has to stop.

Wonder where this activity would fall with regard to our national 'GDP'.

Ce qui est intéressant dans la décision, c'est que la justice française s'aligne sur une classification faite par la justice allemande il y a 6ans (BGH Urt. v. 18.06.2020, Az. 4 StR 482/19). Le cas allemand était encore moins claire, car la volonté n'avait pas été relevé avec la même clarté. Selon le BGH, il suffisait que l'automobiliste était indifférent au sort des autres.
