The dismissal motions of Sidney Powell, Mike Lindell and Rudy G were all denied in the Dominion defamation lawsuit.

Based on this opinion I don't see a viable path for any of them at the summary judgment stage.  Either they settle or eventually face a civil trial.


QuotePowell alone argues that her statements cannot be defamatory because no reasonable person could conclude that they were statements of fact.

The Fox defence failed her

Especially since millions of people seemed to have taken her statements as fact.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Not sure its cool for corporations to be able to sue crazy people for saying insane things about them.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Huh? You can sue anybody for anything.

Yeah - it's why I'm so confused about what it means. There must be some Twitter controversy that Trump was watching, gollum-like, or some news story somewhere but I have no idea what it means.
Let's bomb Russia!

I saw one suggestion it was about Cuomo.

Ah. Well not surprising our illustrious former President sees resigning because of disgraceful behavior as a morally weak move.

He really is Bill Clinton without any of the good qualities.

It seems that Trump's "Wall" is not faring very well after torrential rains in Arizona these days:

What are you talking about - think how much extra the contractors will now earn for repair and remediation.

Trump's legal team in the Michigan "Kraken" case was sanctioned in an order issued today.  Including Sidney Powell and Lin Wood.
Ordered to pay the state's legal fees and notices will be sent to the local bars for each attorney.

Order here, it very long and detailed: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mied.350905/gov.uscourts.mied.350905.172.0_3.pdf

110 pages, I'll pass.

You forgot one important part in your summary: 12hrs of legal education, including 6 on election law.  :D

Damn, that must be humiliating for a seasoned lawyer.

This reads like written by an 8 year old.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
