Dominion sues right-wing OAN and pair of Trump-loving reporters for spreading 'manufactured stories about election fraud'
Travis Gettys
August 10, 2021

Dominion Voting Systems has filed new defamation lawsuits against One America News and two of its on-air broadcasters for spreading "lies" about the November 2020 election. The voting machine company has sued Donald Trump's former attorneys, Fox News and Newsmax, and it filed a long-awaited suit against the right-wing OAN and reporters Chanel Rion and Christina Bobb, along with former Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne, seeking more than $1.6 billion in damages.

"During and after the November 2020 election, OAN saw a business opportunity," the suit alleges. "Spurred by a quest for profits and viewers, OAN — a competitor to media giant Fox — engaged in a race to the bottom with Fox and other outlets such as Newsmax to spread false and manufactured stories about election fraud. Dominion quickly became the focus of this downward spiral of lies, as each broadcaster attempted to outdo the others by making the lies more outrageous, spreading them further, and endorsing them as strongly as possible."
The company accused Byrne of repeatedly and falsely claiming that Dominion rigged the vote counts to steal the election for President Joe Biden, and blamed Newsmax and the former tech CEO of spinning conspiracy theories that triggered an ongoing "audit" in Arizona.

"Newsmax helped create and cultivate an alternate reality where up is down, pigs have wings, and Dominion engaged in a colossal fraud to steal the presidency from Donald Trump by rigging the vote," the suit alleges.

The lawsuit notes that Newsmax employees were aware the election claims were false -- even describing some of them as "insane" -- and would likely result in legal complaints.

Newsmax reacts to Dominion lawsuit: "Newsmax simply reported on allegations made by well-known public figures, including the President, his advisors and members of Congress — Dominion’s action today is a clear attempt to squelch such reporting and undermine a free press."

Also he has no college degree but does have a conviction for drug dealing.

His most recent stream from early July, "The Mirror of Maricopa; Is there a parametric line?" is 11 and a half hours long.

After blowing up his career at Overstock by having an affair with a Russian spy,
Patrick Byrne soon found himself a new pet project: promoting the false narrative that the 2020
election had been stolen. In fact, as Byrne has publicly admitted, he had already committed to that
narrative three months before the election took place. After the election, Byrne manufactured and
promoted fake evidence to convince the world that the 2020 election had been stolen as part of a
massive international conspiracy among China, Venezuelan and Spanish companies, the
Department of Justice (“DOJ”), the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), the Federal
Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), prominent Republicans, Chief Justice John Roberts, and
Dominion, which, Byrne falsely claimed, committed fraud and helped steal the 2020 presidential
election.

U.S. Magistrate Judge N. Reid Neuriter ordered Ernest Walker and Gary D. Fielder to pay the attorney fees and expenses for the defendants in their lawsuit, which included state leadership from Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Georgia; Facebook and its CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan and voting machine company Dominion Voting Systems.

The litigation, filed in December 2020 and dismissed in April, was a purported class-action lawsuit filed “on behalf of all American registered voters” that made wide-ranging claims of election fraud and sought damages of $1,000 per voter—adding up to $160 billion, which the judge noted is “greater than the annual GDP of Hungary.”

Neuriter said sanctions were warranted in the case because Walker and Fielder “did not conduct a reasonable inquiry into” whether their fraud claims were actually true, describing the lawsuit as “litigation by ‘cut-and-paste’” as the attorneys included fraud allegations from other post-election lawsuits in their complaint without speaking to the lawyers who filed those lawsuits or looking further into their claims.

The judge also awarded sanctions based on the plaintiffs’ basic legal mistakes, writing it “should have been as obvious to Plaintiffs’ counsel as it would be to a first-year civil procedure student” that state officials in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Georgia couldn’t have been sued in Colorado for elections in their states.

If I'm reading this right this latest lunatic -- one of Powell's purported experts -- has sued Dominion for statements they made about her in their lawsuit against Powell by referring to her in the complaint as "wholly unreliable." That is not a thing./1
