As of 2022, the only places that still reserve the electric chair as an option for execution are the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Arkansan and Oklahoman laws provide for its use should lethal injection ever be held to be unconstitutional.

1,200% Match. Where do these these match funds come from? Oh, they don't cause they don't exist.

Nah, standard procedure for this sort of request. Fairly short briefing schedule, followed by a fast decision in the weekly orders. Similar to how Graham’s petition was handled.

Notably, this puts any legal decision after the election, which moots any concerns Trump raised (rightly or wrongly, I’d say the latter) about legal wrangling during an election. That’s probably good for the sane parts of the electorate, since we really don’t need or want a “witch hunt” decision motivating the trump yards to the polls.

Trump Threatens To Sue The Pulitzer Prize Board For Defamatory Refusal To Revoke A Prize
Somehow, it's even dumber than we expected.

We regret to inform you that Donald Trump is back on his bullshit.

Not that he was ever off his bullshit, of course. But the former president is once again threatening to sue the Pulitzer Prize Board for refusing to rescind the 2018 prizes awarded to the New York Times and Washington Post for their coverage of the investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to Russian electoral interference.

This isn’t exactly a new hobby for the nation’s most vexatious litigant. In November of 2021, his nutball lawyer Alina Habba sent the Board a “spoiliation” letter demanding that it claw back the honors bestowed on the media outlets.

“By failing to remove these statements, revoke the award, or even publicly comment on the illegitimate nature of the works, the Pulitzer Prize Board is actively advancing the false narrative contained therein and promoting defamatory statements against our client,” she huffed.

Then in June 2022, Trump sent a letter himself, pointing to the doomed Sussmann indictment and bizarrely the DOJ Inspector General’s report which found that the FBI investigation was appropriately predicated as evidence that the media outlets had simply been out to smear him in cahoots with the Clinton campaign.

Not a personal injury lawyer, but my guess is the low six figures, possibly with a kicker to cover fees. Or maybe high five figures. Not enough of an injury to hit the the big time.
