TESLA and Elon Musk - anything not elsewhere

If someone steals your car and causes damage with it, you're probably up to "you're also liable."

Isn't this a little early as they aren't even "official" candidates yet? Well, they are official candidates at this point: Candidates for their parties' nominations. ;) But I take your point (and I somewhat agree), in June they'll both still be "presumptive nominees," and not ac...

Some nimrod told Orly Taitz that he had seen Rahm Emanuel meet with the judge during the Connie Rhodes trial in Georgia (actually, it might have been during the show-cause hearings on sanctions).

I was just about to ask if that was a legal way to get around a gag order. No, as the order includes people acting of the direction of this defendant. Normally, if it isn't a question of legality, but a question of proof: What is the evidence that these people are acting at the direction of the gag...

Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai Fake "Inventor of Email" / Anti-Vaxxer / Election Truther / Failed Candidate

No surprise: the DDC dismissed Ayyaurai's lawsuit.
Grifter gotta, so Ayyadurai filed a NOA.

Given that Ayyadurai is pro per, I expect a dismissal (as moot) from the D.C. Cir. early next year.

The fan bois on his dumpster-fire site have been saying he should run for president.

But Musk ineligible to serve as president (or vice president).

When this is pointed out, the inevitable response is, "BUT OBAMA!!1!"
