I know there are one or two lawyers who read this thread. About this Smartmatic suit... Smartmatic was used in exactly one location during the election-- LA county. Now Fox, OANN, Newsmax all had people on who were talking firsthand, about election "fraud" they saw, all of these networks reported that Smartmatic owned Dominion voting systems, and it was all created by Venzuela, who engineered it to steal elections, all over the country. These people can demonstrate massive damages. They are likely finished as a company. How can this be suit be defended? Is there any way Fox can even settle here, shouldn't Smartmatic refuse all efforts at settlement from Fox, and go to trial? And forget about Newsmax. Fox has deep coffers and will absorb a devastating body blow, but Newsmax is likely to be completely annihilated by this. And this is all before the coming Dominion lawsuit.

Probably the same way fox hosts get out of lawsuits: they are making entertainment and not need therefore what they or out does not need to be factually accurate. I want to see how that goes for them.

IANAL, but I saw some interesting commentary on Twitter that was basically that, because of the Gawker lawsuit, journalistic outlets are a lot more susceptible to defamation lawsuits nowadays and that the Fox 'entertainment product' defense is a lot weaker than it used to be. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out in this case.

Of all the things in that bill the $15 min wage is the one most obviously put there to be negotiated away. It is needed, and high priority, but it doesn't belong in a budget bill since it has nothing to do with the budget, and so was obviously not gonna stay there. Now, the 2k checks very much belong there and should not have been cut, at least not before negotiations even began

We're one month out now from the endgame of a fascist coup attempt orchestrated by the former President of the United States. It's deeply disconcerting to me that I'm going through everyday life, making career plans and deciding about energy efficient furnace payoff times while simultaneously low-key researching and contingency planning for fleeing the country if the next coup is successful. And even more disconcerting that it seems like most Americans have forgotten about this and treat it like some wacky few hours that happened, isolated from everything else and not part of a planned scheme to overthrow democracy https://twitter.com/RWPUSA/status/1355588534594375684

I really don't know what to do about any of this. I am hoping that if there is an investigation, the folks who were responsible will be punished, but I doubt it. I wish I had anywhere to flee to, neither me or my husband have passports or dual citizenship and I'm not sure Europe would be much better in the long run.

We have members of Congress who directly aided the terrorists and so far gently caress all has been done. There's open white nationalists in Congress. Nothing is happening. We've got to vote them out, I guess? German is stupid easy to learn, at least.

I don't know if the article was intentionally manipulative like that, but it really did calm me down a bit to see how many across the entire rational political spectrum joined together to make sure that the election was free and fair. Really disturbing that it took a year's worth of work and hundreds of millions of dollars, but it's also heartening to know that there are that many people with influence and money who do actually care about democracy. It's really an amazing article, how carefully the group anticipated Trump's moves and planned effective countermeasures. quote:As much as they were eager to mount a show of strength, mobilizing immediately could backfire and put people at risk. Protests that devolved into violent clashes would give Trump a pretext to send in federal agents or troops as he had over the summer. And rather than elevate Trump’s complaints by continuing to fight him, the alliance wanted to send the message that the people had spoken. quote:Election boards were one pressure point; another was GOP-controlled legislatures, who Trump believed could declare the election void and appoint their own electors. And so the President invited the GOP leaders of the Michigan legislature, House Speaker Lee Chatfield and Senate majority leader Mike Shirkey, to Washington on Nov. 20. quote:There was one last milestone on Podhorzer’s mind: Jan. 6. On the day Congress would meet to tally the electoral count, Trump summoned his supporters to D.C. for a rally.
