It depends on what secrets are being kept. Here, I would guess that the accused is asking for information relating to secret service deployments, surveillance, and other information on how he was discovered. That information would be useful to future assassins, but doesn’t serve to mitigate his actions or exonerate him.
Just because the accused asks a question with a classified answer does not mean the accused should go free.

Why do you think Ivanka stepped back this time around? Arabella turned 14 a couple weeks ago.

I bet you think a hundred miles is a long drive.
A lot of young boys 16+ aren’t going to be happy about this
Suppose he willed his car to his living son, his house to his son, and the remainder of his estate to Bob.
He dies. Son is alive. In this case, son gets house and car. Bob gets everything else.
Suppose son dies first. In this case, the house transfers to the son’s estate, where it is then transferred to son’s heirs. The house was bequeathed to the “son”.
But the car does not transfer to the son’s estate. The car was bequeathed to the “living son”. The car transfers to Bob with the rest of Dad’s estate, not to the son’s heirs.

It’s pronounced “twat”.
I think you are misunderstanding.
Divided highways in Finland have speed limits of 100-120km/h.
If you build a new road that looks like a divided highway, but you put up 30km/h signage… People are going to drive 120km/h. They aren’t going to drive 30km/h just because it is the posted speed limit. They are going to drive the 120km/h that they drive on every other road that looks like this one.
Major roads in urban areas of Finland have speed limits of 50km/h.
If you build a new road that looks like a major road, and you put up 30km/h signs… people are going to drive 50km/h.
Here’s the important part that you’re not quite following: Residential roads in Finland are 30km/h. If you build a road that looks like a residential road, and you put up 50km/h signs… people are going to drive 30km/h, not 50.
Nobody is saying we should get rid of the speed limits. Yes, we certainly do need them. What we are saying is that people are going to drive at the speeds that the road design supports, regardless of the posted speed limit. If you actually want people to drive 30km/h, your road needs to look and feel like a 30km/h road.
Anecdotal, but I lived in a rather large allotment, established in the 1960s. We had no pavement markings on the blacktop. No edge lines, no center lines. Everyone drove 20-25mph throughout. Then, the city decided to paint solid centerlines and edge lines on the primary access road through the allotment. Now, everyone drives 35-45mph on that part, while they’re still at 20-25mph in the rest of the allotment. The pavement markings make the exact same road feel like a primary artery rather than a residential side street.
If you wanted to accomplish the reverse, you could withhold the centerline markings and paint crosswalks instead. Paradoxically, two-way stops or even “yield” signs can (in certain cases) reduce speeds more than 4-way stops.

Nifty examples of unusual revolvers, but in the image the cylinders would never actually line up with the barrel at all
Consider this:
On most revolvers, this circled feature would be the hinge pin for the cylinder crane, allowing it to swing out for reloading. But, this thing is clearly not “most” revolvers. That’s not a pin.
That circled feature is in line with the bottom chamber of the revolver. Nothing else is lined up with any chamber. That circled feature has to be the barrel for the revolver cylinder.
The big barrel above it is a secondary, single-shot shotgun barrel. This barrel is much larger than the chambers in the revolver cylinder; it can’t be driving the small projectile fired from those chambers.
The only way this gun works is if it is a two-barreled gun like the Lemat. The revolver fires from the bottom barrel rather than the top, like the Rhino.
$5000-$15,000. If you can’t afford a vasectomy reversal, you can’t afford kids.
While it’s not guaranteed, chances are very good that it can be reversed. If you change your mind later, you can attempt to reverse it.
Nobody should be having kids before the age of 30 anyway.
These hearings were specifically for determining whether the information the defendant is requesting is exculpatory, or if the requests are specious.and irrelevant. If the judge had ruled the opposite way, the government would have to decide whether to declassify the information, or drop some or all of the charges.
It is very likely that if they chose to declassify and publish the information, they would be able to prosecute many additional charges. They have to balance the value of charging every crime committed against the cost of revealing operational information.
