guam and some others don’t want to be a state.
So, standard fearful scaredy cats.
They’re always scared of something.
A lot of them are just fearful people. Fox News et al know this.
I guess we finally have the answer to Fox News’ incessant question of who cares about the political opinions of celebrities.
The video was designed in part to separate herself from the president’s pugilistic tone, according to a White House aide. Some had hoped that she would at least mention, if not welcome, incoming first lady Jill Biden, but she did not.
…
The first lady also remained silent for several days after the deadly riot, and then sounded oddly absorbed with her own image at a time of national crisis in a statement she released Jan. 11. “I find it shameful that surrounding these tragic events there has been salacious gossip, unwarranted personal attacks, and false misleading accusations on me,” she wrote, while also calling for a national “healing.”

IANAL but don’t you have to demonstrate actual loss of business associated with this? Like what is the maximum amount he could get stung for?

Though I abhor the majority of those who make up The Lincoln Project and question their effectiveness during the election, this thread is well written.
I love the “it could go either way” here. OK man thanks for the dispatch.
Also NAL.
“Dominion has been forced to expend substantial monetary sums to protect the health and safety of its employees following innumerable death threats from the social media mob that your statements have agitated against Dominion. And your misrepresentations have required the company to incur substantial attorneys’ fees and to mitigate the damage you have inflicted upon Dominion’s reputation.”
You usually have to show damages, but there is defamation per se which applies to types of statements so harmful you don’t have to show that they specifically damaged you, as damages are presumed. The types of categories differ by state - it’s often things like crimes involving moral turpitude, allegations that hurt a person’s business or trade (and then some antiquated ones like being unchase or having a VD).
Here it is almost certainly satisfied since the allegations are Dominion committed serious crimes and the allegations harm their business.
Assuming Dominion can’t show actual damages, the damages awarded could range from nominal to a ton if the jury wants to award punitive damages (which are available so long as Dominion can show MyPillow guy acted with malice, which seems pretty obvious).
Given how crazy the claims and the MyPillow guy are, my gut would be unless he gets enough Trumpers on the jury, he’s going to have to pay quite a bit.
Lindell might legitimately be the dumbest person I’ve ever seen.
