They say it's toll free, and therefore it is toll free. When the phone company charges you LD for the call, it proves how complete the take over of America by tax and spend libruls is, and why you need to get angry, why you need to get on board, and why you need to send money to fight this great treachery against our beloved nation. Do it. Do it today. Take all those pictures of dead presidents you have in you wallet right now, put them in an envelope, and mail it to the address listed on the Contact Us page. Thank you so much for being a thoughtful and generous patriot.neonzx wrote: ↑Sun Jul 11, 2021 9:32 amUmmm...CONTACT INFORMATION

My take is that it would be more like a charity fund raising marketing campain wher the ad agency gets its cut as a percentage. Here we have the "collection agency" send TFG what ever is left after they deduct the vigorish.

Tonight I checked to see if there is any movement in these three lawsuits yet. Check out what appeared in the Youtube docket:
18 MOTION to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint re 1 Complaint, by Ted Kurt. Responses due by 8/3/2021 (drz) (Entered: 07/20/2021)
https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap ... 3.18.0.pdf

Unrelated questions: These three cases have each been assigned to different judges. One would expect them to be consolidated, no? Any inferences to be drawn from that, or is it just not time yet to consider combining them?Plaintiff herein has sued Twitter
Because they blocked him, he became bitter.
And YouTube and Facebook
Plaintiff didn't overlook.
For failure to state grounds
Upon which relief can found [sic]
Plaintiff's Complaint should be tossed in the Shi**er.

Re: Donald J. Trump, et. al. v. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube Cash Stunt - Grifting America First (Policy Institute)
I expect him to argue that, notwithstanding the Twitter agreement re: venue and jurisdiction, Calif has no personal jurisdiction over him. Just ignore his business interests, fundraising trips, etc. But even if Calif would otherwise have no personal jurisdiction over him, he fucking agreed to it.
Re: Donald J. Trump, et. al. v. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube Cash Stunt - Grifting America First (Policy Institute)
Too also: lack of jurisdiction is a claim usually raised by defendants, to argue the far-flung court can't haul them in to defend there.woodworker wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 2:11 pm I expect him to argue that, notwithstanding the Twitter agreement re: venue and jurisdiction, Calif has no personal jurisdiction over him.

Of course, Klayman recently sought a change of venue for a case he filed (if you don't like the venue, go shop for one you do!), so the depth of stupidity knows no bounds.

First of all, doesn't his acceptance of the TOS and its venue stipulation constitute an explicit grant by him of personal jurisdiction?woodworker wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 2:11 pm I expect him to argue that, notwithstanding the Twitter agreement re: venue and jurisdiction, Calif has no personal jurisdiction over him.

Besides, if the lawsuit (which he initiated) comes to trial in a California court, how can he pursue it, without accepting that the court that is hearing his suit has jurisdiction? Also, too, wouldn't any assets that he owns that are located in California, create a nexus?

I suspect that he has the choice now of going forward in California, or just dismissing the case.
And I bet he dismisses it and tells us the California courts are too corrupt..

Could pull a Klayman and appeal the transfer. ("Pulling a Klayman" indicates the likelihood of a successful appeal.)
Again referencing Klayman, this particular grift has mostly run its course, so a quiet dismissal seems more likely. Especially considering California's more robust anti-SLAPP laws.And I bet he dismisses it and tells us the California courts are too corrupt..

Naughty naughty.
https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap ... .147.0.pdfInteresting catch by Twitter's lawyers. Trump's lawyers, who are trying to persuade a court that Twitter plotted with the gov't, said a congressional memo dealt with limiting "[conservative] content" on the site.
What it actually said was "misinformation and extremist content

Court Listener lists all the Trump v. Meta Platforms, Inc. (4:21-cv-09044) documents. [Meta Platforms appears to be the new name of Facebook.] Justia also has a list of filings, easier to read, no links to the documents, not as up to date. (IANAL and really don't understand all of this, but I figure the lawyers on here might appreciate the links.)
Anyway, the reason I started looking for these documents is that someone on Twitter shared a bit from Trump's Reply in Support of Motion for Preliminary Injunction. Apparently Trump's marvelous, wonderful social media website is not going to go live for several more months, at least. Who knew?

From the pdf -
So much whining!Mr. Trump’s injuries are compounded daily, with Defendants’ prior restraint of his views on politics, the economy, the border, national security, health, election integrity, and a host of other matters of national interest remains in place. Plaintiff’s injuries are further exacerbated due to the silencing of his speech as the presumptive head of the Republican Party at a time when the nation is drawing ever closer to the 2022 elections, including his ability to endorse and fundraise for GOP candidates in primary races that are currently commencing throughout the nation. Mr. Trump’s campaigning and fundraising are also his means of accumulating personal political capital while weighing another run for the presidency. FAC ¶ 78. Defendant’s own submission details Plaintiff’s difficulties in his efforts to construct his own media platform, which has been plagued with problems and delays. Dozens of engineers, cybersecurity specialists, and other technical experts are needed to build a social media platform. The process will be slow until it can merge with a publicly traded company, and a likely launch date is still months away. MTD, Exh. E. The existence of potential alternative platforms for Plaintiff’s speech is irrelevant, particularly when the few available alternatives lack the Defendants’ market penetration. As the Supreme Court recently held,
Biden v. Knight First Amendment Inst. at Columbia Univ., 141 S. Ct. 1220, 1225 (2021). The proposed preliminary injunction causes no harm to Defendants. Meta undertakes the cost of hosting, storing, and disseminating all content posted on the Facebook platform. Any cost Defendants incur to restore Plaintiff’s access to his prior channels would be de minimus at most."It changes nothing that these platforms are not the sole means for distributing speech or information. A person always could choose to avoid the toll bridge or train and instead swim the Charles River or hike the Oregon Trail. But in assessing whether a company exercises substantial market power, what matters is whether the alternatives are comparable. For many of today’s digital platforms [such as Facebook], nothing is.”
