Weather Alerts
Reports of damage in the Houston area sound like that of a hurricane but without any storm surge. Some places may be without power for weeks. My ex-wife lives in Houston, and sustained some significant damage with lots of trees down in the yard and a big branch on the roof (but apparently not damag...

Mike Lindell's Election Shenanigans, FrankSpeech and #MyPillow #FAILS - 6/28/61 Cancer / Ox
Shame on the attorney if he didn't get a retainer for an amount in excess of the reasonably likely billings for the case up front. Lindell was an obvious train wreck that could be seen a mile away. No sympathy for the attorney if he got stiffed.

Apparently, Lindell just dropped the suit against the DoJ for seizing his cell phone. It's not clear from the wording of the article whether he unilaterally dropped the suit or whether it was with the mutual agreement of the DOJ. He got nothing for all his trouble. https://www.rawstory.com/mike-lind...

Normally, Lindell looks more like a confused, sloppy dim bulb to me. Here, he looks utterly demonic. I don't have any way of telling, but this look was so over-the-top that my first thought when I saw this pic last night is that it's been Photoshopped.

Yah, 15 weeks. But we may blow that up in the upcoming election as well.
