At this hour the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals is meeting behind closed doors to hear the start of Sibel Edmonds' appeal of her dismissed whistleblower case against the FBI. Curiously, briefs filed in the case were not sealed by the court.

The Justice Department holds that Edmonds is basically a walking state secret, so the court should have fun grappling with that. Assuming it grapples much at all in secret.
