Rep, not a senator, sadly.

As much as this is clearly a political hitjob, this is a hitjob where they finally seemed to get their ducks in a row. Trump had presidential records (classified or not doesn't matter) as a private citizen in a place they weren't supposed to be. I think he's broken the letter of the law here...

Haven't heard about O'Keefe, but that's how it goes. World get's dumber and dumber. It's why I plan on moving to NH.

You are correct, thank you for the correction! I just assumed because default judgement frequently means not showing up, but you know what they say about assumptions! Yeah, I guess that the lack of compliance left enough of a negative inference for a default judgement anyway. Still, if Jones...

Then he's still a moron. You can fight discovery, and also just fail to respond to them. It has real negative consequences (generally called a negative inference, which means that the opposition can say that you are hiding anything, and you are), but less than not showing up. He could have also...

It does nothing to them, because they'll have the brains to actually show up to court. Look, Alex Jones is funny and it sucks he's in this position, but he apparently doesn't know shit about the law, and didn't bother to ask around. This is completely his own fault.

... Which he could have raised if he had bothered to show up. If you decide not to be there to argue, you just lose.

No, Jones is straight fucked. He did the one thing you never should do in the justice system: not show up to court. He then got a default judgement against him, so now he's screwed. If he had actually shown up, he could have won.

Lawyers have ethics they need to follow (for example, they can't lie). By writing something, then not putting your name to it, it could be seen as dodging responsibility. Doesn't seem to be the case here though, as the lawyers names appear to be on the memorandum.

Because having lawyers behind the scenes is quite frankly weird, and possibly against lawyer ethics (IDK about this, but I could see it be a thing).

So a) he's gonna lose, and b) his case has no merit. Maybe he has lawyers behind the scenes, but I doubt it.

If the LAPD had the opportunity, they would be. Anyway, over under on Republican Senators still down to abolish the FBI by the end of the year? I put it at 1.5 because of Rand Paul.

Honestly, it seems entirely reasonable that Trump had secret/top secret documents. A bad idea, but a president having them and taking them? I could definitely see it happening, especially Trump, as politicians do dumb shit with classified documents. Honestly, they likely have an open and shut...

Never underestimate people's ability to do dumb things. Literally the entire system survives and plays off of knowing that there's always someone dumb enough to ruin everything before real change happens. For example, all to most of the hatred against the government was lost because of the...

That's the FBI not wanting to share that the probable cause part of the warrant may as well be blank, IMO. @Floridaman 's explanation is probably better. Regardless, the FBI (or cops in general) not wanting to share data is the norm.

No need to bribe a judge. There's a lot of federal judges, just go to the one that hates Trump and doesn't care about the law. There's always gonna be at least one. Which, by the way, is another reason to abolish the lot of them. Maybe just make a model for interstate coordination, and just...

Oh, it so much is. It's hilarious. For example, just to really piss off everyone: Also, we remain the only political party to demand the Epstein Client list: https://humanevents.com/2022/08/10/bleu-the-libertarian-party-is-demanding-accountability-for-all-epstein-co-conspirators/ Join the...

Trumps gonna need to fire more than 10k to cover the hiring spree of the new 87k IRS hires.
