Now might be a good time to get an update from @Uniformed_ReRe and @grandhavendiddy on how Dominion's lawsuit against Sidney is going. She in jail yet?
LOL both can file bankruptcy, write books and hit the circuit. They will be fine.At worst, and assuming she is in the wrong, Sidney will get drained with massive legal fees and a public mea culpa. (She would declare bankruptcy before paying any large settlement) Guiliani will probably die broke.
We will see. She may indeed have "the Kracken"....or it may be a ruse that "no reasonable person would buy into" or whatever she filed.
She should have, instead, worked to be the law firm that wrote in new codicils for the voting laws. Far sturdier ground and she could have made money versus lost it.
You might be right. She should start writing that book though - legal fees are mounting.LOL both can file bankruptcy, write books and hit the circuit. They will be fine.
The lawsuit is 9 months old, isn't it? Clearly she can afford to keep the charade going. Besides, her best buddy is Trump, one of the richest men in the world.You might be right. She should start writing that book though - legal fees are mounting.
The Defense filed their Answer/Counterclaim on September 24, 2021.The lawsuit is 9 months old, isn't it? Clearly she can afford to keep the charade going. Besides, her best buddy is Trump, one of the richest men in the world.
The key question is: Why isn't she already in jail? Why hasn't the judge already ruled for her?
Has ANYTHING happened in this case? Someone who is objective will look at this lawsuit and conclude dominion has no case, and can't refute Sidney's claims, they just hope they can run up her legal fees and get her to settle.
You have basically admitted this is their plan.
All because she said she had seen proof that Trump really won. And Trump haters didn't want to hear that. Hell you are even cheerleading for Rudy to get his too.
So sad. There was a time in this country where we celebrated our patriots, we didn't seek to punish them for telling the truth.

Nope. Her lawyers issued a statement saying that was the MEDIA SPIN of the filing, and she wanted to clear the air because some people were being hoodwinked by the media spin of what the filing said and was.Her lawyers made the filing that “no reasonable person”.
Its in the hands of the courts at this point
What was the nuanced reading of her filing then?Nope. Her lawyers issued a statement saying that was the MEDIA SPIN of the filing, and she wanted to clear the air because some people were being hoodwinked by the media spin of what the filing said and was.
And still are, it appears.
A friendly SC? LOL See you are already setting up your excuses now that it's clear this lawsuit isn't going the way you hoped. If the SC were friendly to Sidney, they would have heard the motion by TX to stop the count. Which the Constitution said they should have and I believe Justice Thomas stated this as well.What was the nuanced reading of her filing then?
nevermind, the Courts will decide and she can take it all the way up to a friendly supreme court
As Kalim says, be better man. That was lame. 😂What was the nuanced reading of her filing then?

That’s exactly what I said: let’s see it play out. Its in the courts and will be played out there.A friendly SC?

Sidney is a wonderful litmus test for exposing posters who claim to be indies, who are really dems.
All Sidney said was that Trump really won and that they rigged the election.
EVERY poster here claiming to be an independent lost their shit over her claims. To the poster.
Again, independent voters have no emotional investment in either side. They simply don't care.
TRUE independents look at this case, the claims made by both sides, and think 'whoa that sounds salacious! Let's see what happens'
Contrast that with your reaction. And @Uniformed_ReRe and @kalimgoodman and @BSC911. All of you had the precise same reaction toward Sidney when she made those claims.
Your anger betrays you.
I think what you are brushing past is that conservative judges generally vote or rule based on constitutional principles. It's the leftards that are the activist judges. Conservative judges don't have half the social bias the Dimtard appointees have. You can bet on how the leftard judges are going to rule on any controversial issue 99% of the time. That can't be said for the current conservative majority. Roberts, Gorsuch, and Kavenaugh have been wild cards on different issues.That’s exactly what I said: let’s see it play out. Its in the courts and will be played out there.
As you said, I really don’t care.
You are right on voting patterns which is why I went straight to the supreme court which has a 6-3 conservative majorityI think what you are brushing past is that conservative judges generally vote or rule based on constitutional principles.

The leftards? I could own Las Vegas betting on every damn thing they rule on.
So your point is that the law is on Sidney's side, and once the case gets to the SC she will win as a result of the SC having a conservative majority? Because to @NavigatorII' point, conservative SC judges tend to vote on the law as written (which is what all SC judges are supposed to do) while liberal judges vote on how they WISH the law was written.You are right on voting patterns which is why I went straight to the supreme court which has a 6-3 conservative majority
Fair question. She may win at any stage in the legal and appellate process. You noted the bias above. Most would agree with that summary.So your point is that the law is on Sidney's side, and once the case gets to the SC she will win as a result of the SC having a conservative majority?

FInal step? According to her recent response, they have no case. Sounds like the case won't go past this point.Fair question. She may win at any stage in the legal and appellate process. You noted the bias above. Most would agree with that summary.
My point is that at, at least, the final step, should it get to that point, the Supreme Court, there she will have a conservative hearing which will look at the plaintiff's argument, look at the facts and applicable law and make a determination.
If the charges are upheld at that last SC point, then one would take from it that her actions were indeed inflammatory and defamatory.
DEM Leadership in Fairfax, VA is scared the DEMs will lose power, including the Governor in the upcoming election, so the County Council took an unprecedented step, and even though the early voting/mail in ballots have been going on for 2 weeks, changed/suspended the requirement of a witness signature on the mail in ballot. Now, normally if they received a mail in ballot missing the witness, they would try to contact the person to have the issue fixed, now, they will just count the vote.I just hope all these audits and lawsuits etc. will set things up where they can force the courts to act if this much cheating goes on again in the swing states with the Trump hating people that had the power over review of the fraud. There is a reason FL didn't have the same massive fraud - because they cleaned Broward up some after they tried to keep generating votes to screw DeSantis over and because the person over that stuff at the state level wasn't a Trump hater like that crook in Georgia who although a Rep had Obama operatives assisting him to screw Trump.
#1 - The Supreme Court is only supreme to the other lower courts.You are right on voting patterns which is why I went straight to the supreme court which has a 6-3 conservative majority

If they dismiss Dominion's case, then she is exonerated in this court from charges of defamation and the discussion is put to rest.FInal step? According to her recent response, they have no case. Sounds like the case won't go past this point.
What charges?
My point is that if the law is on her side, and all of the lower courts are biased against her, the ultimate arbiter will not have a liberal bias.So your point is that the law is on Sidney's side, and once the case gets to the SC she will win as a result of the SC having a conservative majority?

I don't care about biases. Can the judges overcome their biases and judge cases based on the law AS WRITTEN? That's all I care about, and it's all any patriotic American should care about.My point is that if the law is on her side, and all of the lower courts are biased against her, the ultimate arbiter will not have a liberal bias.
To your other note, this may all be dismissed in the original court.
I think that is right which is why I noted 6-3 versus 5-4.I don't care about biases. Can the judges overcome their biases and judge cases based on the law AS WRITTEN? That's all I care about, and it's all any patriotic American should care about.
And the Supreme Court doesn't have a 6-3 Conservative majority. John Roberts is NOT a conservative judge, he's a political one.
Case in point: When Texas filed suit against 4 other states in January, the Constitution is clear; The Supreme Court has sole jurisdiction and must take the case.
Roberts refused. So the case wasn't heard. In dissent, both Justices Thomas and Alito clarified that the Constitution obligates the Court to hear the case.
But Roberts refused. Days later, we learned from clerks working the Court that they had overheard violent shouting matches over whether they would hear the case. Thomas, Alito and the 3 Trump appointees argued that the Constitution was clear, they had to hear the case. Roberts and the 3 other liberal judges screamed that they couldn't dare take the case. Roberts screamed that it would 'cause riots' if they heard it.
Roberts has a history of letting politics cloud his decisions. And unfortinately, as Chief Justice, he has immense sway over the entire court. Remember when he literally rewrote Obamacare to make it a tax?
The SC will never overturn Roe v Wade as long as Roberts is CJ, because he doesn't want to be known as the Chief Justice that sat on the court when it was overturned.I think that is right which is why I noted 6-3 versus 5-4.
My intuition is that he is concerned (recently) about court packing and forever undoing the legitimacy of the court. If the court, for example, over-turns Roe V. Wade, watch the liberals go full press on removing the filibuster, adding in DC and PR as states and packing the court.
I saw a poll recently, the majority of both dems and pubs now favor secession.Insta - let’s get to the heart of the matter, do you believe that there will be a secession
No idea what he thinks, but I don't think so. We've got a deep split but it's not geographical this time, making it difficult to mete out regions. For example, Florida is deeply red with the exception of a handful of counties. It's not as stark a difference in CA but it's the same way there. We'd have to break up various states and a new coalition would not have contiguous borders.Insta - let’s get to the heart of the matter, do you believe that there will be a secession?

Not sure how that will work to be honest. What do we do in Florida? Take a chainsaw, carve out Palm Beach, Broward, and Dade Counties? Chain them together, set them adrift, hope the gulf stream carries them north, they throw out anchor off Long Island, NY? 😂 Trust me, I'd love to send them back to the hell they came from, just not sure how this will work. We certainly don't want them here.Disagree, punt the NE and Left Coast to Canada.
Ebbbbberbody is leaving California. Newsom's mandate for kids to get the vaccine to go to school was apparently the last straw.
