LOOKS MORE LIKE ELIAS HAS FLIPPED TO ME. HE IS JUST ONE OF MANY WHO SEE THE WRITING ON THE WALL, AND ARE SINGING LIKE CANARIES TO SAVE THEIR OWN ASSES.
I'll be furious if Elias walks free at the end of all this. I've got to look at a Perkins Coie office building looming over I-5 not far home. Bugs the #$^& out of me.
What Republicans? I haven’t heard a peep from Republicans about this, only from Trump’s lawyers and independent lawyers, and the Republicans are letting them get sued without a single murmur from any Republican about WHY THE FUCK VOTING MACHINES HAVE ANY STANDING TO SUE CITIZENS
Imagine getting sued by an ATM manufacturer for telling the bank you think it fucked up your deposit, or getting sued by a Self-checkout machine after being falsely accused of shoplifting
It’s a simplified description to highlight the absurdity, but in a way they are.
A corporation that was already paid by taxpayers to serve as nothing more than an instrument for voting, and mismanaged that task in historic ways to the point where a significant portion of the population doesn’t believe the vote count, is now leveraging billions of dollars to sue for outrageous damages against individual citizens who contested the vote by charging specific failures, on the theory that their demands that it prove that its count is accurate is somehow *a harmful tort defaming its “honor”.
They have no business doing that even if they did nothing wrong, because arguments and accusations are part and parcel of any voting process, and they were already paid for their troubles in that regard.
In a just world, the states who paid them should demand refunds for the record number of ‘adjudications’ caused by the machines casting the legitimacy of the election into doubt, and the DOJ should be exploring whether Dominion is criminally responsible for damages and costs resulting from post-election protests.
It’s kinda like if the NFL tried to sue people who said that their referees are blind, or demanded to see the replay (not a great simile but I like it).
You can sue anyone for anything, and establishing standing in a defamation suit is pretty straightforward. I'm sure the individuals involved can call upon multiple legal arguments to defend themselves, but standing isn't one of them.
To win a defamation case, Dominion will need to prove actual malice. Good faith accusations and arguments are not going to prove that, so if that's all they have, the people getting sued have nothing to worry about.
How did we come to this conclusion? THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW....
"reeee i lost an NY house seat reeeee"
this is why
You may know that, but do you know how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?
3 because the owl licked it 3 times
wise answer
But here’s the thing, an owl has a pointed beak designed to break through bones of its prey, so 3 licks is their instinct pattern to “prep the kill.”
But the market for selling tootsie pops to owls was all a farce, a misdirection.
Marketing ploy to use FOMO to make you, a human higher up the food chain, to assert your dominance over the lowly owl.
But the marketing geniuses knew you couldn’t kill the tootsie roll pop in 3 licks because your teeth will die if you even have the jaw strength.
So you don’t bite it immediately, and your sense of inadequacy lingers with you, buying more and more in the hopes of one day things will change.
Then you become a middle aged man venting your frustrations out to strangers on an Internet chat board.
The owl won.
And the owl totally didn't cheat, just like super popular Xiden
Is this the same Owl from Bohemian Grove ?
2 licks and 1 bite. fucking liberal math that owl uses
Ask your mom...... I'll see myself out
Asking you for a friend, ask your DAD.
One. Twooohoooo, THREE
Wow, that's some boomer shit right there. That commercial first came out in the 60's!

When does a bird sing?
Yes now theyll want to replace it with mail in ballots that they'll send out in triplicate to ensure voters get their copy.

Innocent people like transparency. Guilty ones do not.
The voting machines aren't filing lawsuits lol
Standing isn't really an issue in a defamation case.
