9. "presumption of regularity"
Mon Feb 16, 2026, 09:28 AM

… is the term for judges taking at face value that what prosecutors tell them is factually correct and does not need to be proven. It’s a great advantage that the prosecution has at hearings and during trials. The federal justice department under King Drumpf has pretty much destroyed that “advantage” with many, if not most, federal judges by both lying to judges and withholding important information. It’s their own damn fault.
