Why is Jury Nullification a Thing, But You Can’t Talk About It in Court?

submitted by https://feddit.nl/u/yarr

I’ve been reading a lot about jury nullification, and I get that jurors have the power to acquit someone even if the law technically says they’re guilty. But what I don’t get is—why is this something that exists, yet courts don’t allow it to be talked about during a trial?

If it’s a legitimate part of the legal system, why is it treated like a secret? Would a juror get in trouble for mentioning it during deliberations? And what would happen if someone brought it up during jury selection?

I’m just curious how this all works in practice. If jurors can ultimately do whatever they want, what stops them from using nullification all the time?

‘Nobody Is Safe’: Canada Sends World a Warning Against Trump

submitted by https://lemmy.zip/u/Lemmynated

Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Mélanie Joly had one stark warning to share Wednesday: “If the U.S. can do this to us, their closest friend, then nobody is safe.”

During a press conference addressing President Donald Trump’s recent tariff retaliation against the country, Joly reiterated that Canada is “holding strong” and described the president’s actions as a “day-to-day fight.”

Trump White House has asked U.S. military to develop options for the Panama Canal, officials say

submitted by https://lemmy.zip/u/Lemmynated

The White House has directed the U.S. military to draw up options for increasing the American troop presence in Panama to achieve President Trump’s goal of “reclaiming” the Panama Canal, according to two U.S. officials familiar with the planning.

During a joint address to Congress last week, Trump said, "to further enhance our national security, my administration will be reclaiming the Panama Canal.” Since then, administration officials have not said what “reclaiming” means.

Putin voices doubts over a U.S.-proposed ceasefire with Ukraine, and sets conditions

submitted by https://lemmy.zip/u/Lemmynated

Before Putin spoke, and giving a reminder of Russia’s stance since it launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Putin’s foreign policy adviser, Yuri Ushakov, reiterated Russia’s demands: Ukraine must recognize Russia’s annexation of Crimea and four southeastern regions, withdraw troops from lands claimed by Russia and pledge never to join NATO. He said he “hopes [the United States] knows our position and wants to believe that they will take it into account as we work together going forward.”

Blackmail (1929) was the first Alfred Hitchcock film where the climax takes place at a famous location (the British Museum) something that he would return to in North by Northwest (1959)
