In April, Chief Judge James Boasberg held there
is probable cause that administration officials
engaged in criminal contempt
by having “willfully disobeyed a binding judicial decree.”
Emil Bove is identified in the whistleblower’s documents as having played a central role in the conduct of concern.
The documents also provide evidence that Bove has seriously misled Congress about his conduct.

Whistleblower Documents Implicate Emil Bove in Criminal Contempt Order by Chief Judge Boasberg
Email released by whistleblower would presumably implicate Bove in the “contumacious conduct” identified by Chief Judge Boasberg.

Capsizing-Guided Trajectory Optimization for Autonomous Navigation with Rough Terrain
It is a challenging task for ground robots to autonomously navigate in harsh environments due to the presence of non-trivial obstacles and uneven terrain. This requires trajectory planning that balances safety and efficiency. The primary challenge is to generate a feasible trajectory that prevents robot from tip-over while ensuring effective navigation. In this paper, we propose a capsizing-aware trajectory planner (CAP) to achieve trajectory planning on the uneven terrain. The tip-over stabili…

The Trump administration is preparing to begin the transfer of potentially thousands of foreigners who are in the United States illegally

Trump’s administration simply will not stop setting up snitch lines,
urging federal staff to rat on each other for the crime of being anti-Trump
or in favor of the virtues of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
