Mike Lindell And Sydney Powell Laying Groundwork For Insanity Defense Re Their Respective Dominion Lawsuits?

Hmmm... if this is what is going on, I doubt it will work.

"...in torts, liability is premised on fault; since the mentally ill are not in control of their acts they are not at fault and consequently, they should not be liable for their action. Such a superficially appealing resolution of this difficult problem, however, is not very convincing. Generaly the courts have rejected the mental illness defense to tort liability".

Minus FJ Bullshit: Citing Disclaimer OAN Placed Before Mike Lindell "Documentary" Is An "Appeal To Authority"

"...an appeal to authority... is a form of argument in which the opinion of an authority on a topic is used as evidence to support an argument. (source: Wikipedia).

One America News is an authority? According to their Wikipedia page "the channel is known for promoting falsehoods and conspiracy theories". Doesn't sound like they are an "authority" to me.

Yet, according to the pro-Dotard blogger Minus FJ (and his sockpuppet "Thersites") citing the disclaimer that OAN ran prior to their airing of Mike Lindell's conspiracy-theory-palooza was an "appeal to authority". aka I employed a logical fallacy to dodge addressing Mike's evidence-free "absolute proof".

In part the OAN disclaimer stated that "the statements and claims expressed in this program are presented of this time as opinions only and are not intended to be taken or interpreted by the viewer as established facts".

So, the "authority" OAN says Mike's statements are "not to be taken as established fact". Except OAN isn't an "authority". Their disclaimer was a very poor attempt to protect them from being sued. As per Dominion's attorney Thomas Clare... "the disclaimer on Lindell's film [will] not help OAN avoid legal action".

But, as I pointed out previously, wouldn't "absolute proof" protect OAN from being sued? Clearly the disclaimer indicated that OAN does not believe Mike's video constitutes "absolute proof". If OAN is an "authority" in anything, they're an authority in bullshitting. So, maybe in that regard I did employ the logical fallicy of an "appeal to authority"?

OK, even though I KNOW Minus will accept NO rebuttal, I did Google some rebuts to a few of the Pillowman's false claims. According to Snopes (and other sources as noted) Mike made the following false assertions in his video.

"Absolute Proof" rehashes a number of debunked rumors. Here are some of the facts... Hammer & Scorecard Flippped Trump Votes To Biden. Snopes. A supercomputer called HAMR (or "Hammer") and a software program called "Scorecard" are being used to alter vote counts in the US presidential election of 2020. ... Rumors about the existence of a CIA supercomputer ... can be traced to a man named Dennis Montgomery. According to the website American Report, Montgomery, whom the website describes as a "CIA contractor-turned-whistleblower", designed and built this supercomputer. The fact-checking website Lead Stories also notes that some of the specifics in the American Report article don't hold up to scrutiny. For example, American Report claims that Scorecard works by tampering with "transfer points" between state computers and third-party election data vaults. The article claims that "VR Systems Inc" is one of these transfer points, but VR Systems' COO told Lead Stories that "VR Systems does not do voter tabulation and is not connected to county or state voter tabulation systems". But perhaps the biggest red flag is this story's source, Montgomery. The Daily Beast wrote: What Trump allies tend to leave out, however, is that Montgomery has a long history of making outlandish claims that fail to come true. ... In 2006, Montgomery claimed that he had emails showing that Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons was guilty of bribery. According to USA Today, the Justice Department cleared Gibbons of wrongdoing after a computer expert cast doubt on the authenticity of the emails that had been provided by Montgomery. Dominion Voting Systems Altered Vote Counts In Antrim County MI. Snopes. One of the most prevalent voter fraud claims to emerge in the days following the election was the accusation that a computer glitch in a software program from Dominion Voting Systems had mistakenly counted thousands of votes for President Trump as votes for President Biden. This claim was based on a half-truth: a tabulation error did occur in Antrim County, but the problem was a result of a human error, and the mistake was quickly caught and corrected. [According to] the Michigan Department of State ... The correct results always were and continue to be reflected on the tabulator totals tape and on the ballots themselves. Even if the error in the reported unofficial results had not been quickly noticed, it would have been identified during the county canvass. Boards of County Canvassers, which are composed of 2 Democrats and 2 Republicans, review the printed totals tape from each tabulator during the canvass to verify the reported vote totals are correct. Joe Biden Ballots Were Counted Multiple Times. AP. "Absentee ballots were not scanned multiple times inappropriately" said Tracy Wimmer, media relations director for the Michigan Department of State. ... [Mellissa] Carone, who was hired by the election technology vendor Dominion Voting Systems to do IT work at the TCF Center, made claims about witnessing fraud at a 12/2/2020 hearing in front of Michigan state lawmakers with Trump's attorney, Rudy Giuliani, and in an affidavit in an unsuccessful legal challenge that sought to stop the certification of Detroit-area votes. In a 12/13/2020 order, Judge Timothy Kenny, of the Third Judicial Circuit Court of Michigan, noted that Carone's account did not square with any others. "The allegations simply are not credible", he wrote. A "Seized" Server in Germany Proves Trump Won 410 Electoral Votes. Snopes. [According to OAN] ...computer servers belonging to the Dominion Voting Systems and/or Scytl Secure Electronic Voting companies had supposedly been seized by the U.S. Army in Frankfurt, Germany, and the served data showed that Trump had actually won a landslide victory in the 11/3/2020 election. The rumor was one no reliable news outlet gave any credence to. ... In response to that rumor, Scytl noted that they had no servers or offices in Frankfurt, nor had anything of theirs been seized from them by the U.S. military ... Likewise, the Associated Press reported that Dominion has no connection to Scytl, does not store voting data on servers in Germany, nor was its property targeted by the U.S. military for seizure. Georgia Poll Workers Hide Suitcases Of Ballots From Republican Observers. Snopes. On 12/3/2020 a committee of Georgia state legislators met to discuss potential changes to the state's election system ...attorneys advocating on behalf of the Trump campaign, including Rudy Giuliani. They showed the committee frames of surveillance footage supposedly showing a handful of poll workers illegally counting absentee and military ballots inside a banquet room of Atlanta's State Farm Arena on Election Day, 11/3/2020... ...the county's election director, Rick Barron, said no one told anyone (including the observers and reporters) to leave the banquet room on the night of 11/3/2020... Rather, some poll workers had finished their shifts, and the staff was considering ceasing operations. "I told them not to do that", Barron said... "At about 11:15 [pm] they were fully scanning again, and once they were scanning, Carter Jones, the State Election Board monitor, he told me 11:42 or 11:52 [pm] that he arrived". In other words, Barron alleged that a nonpartisan, state-designated monitor was present when poll workers were scanning ballots just before and after midnight. And after that, he said, an investigator with the secretary of state's office also monitored the ballot scanning. Atlanta 11Alive [reported that] What the video shows is that they [retrieved] plastic bins [not suitcases] from underneath the desks [where they were stored after Rick Barron told them to keep working]. Thousands Of Unregistered Voters, Dead People, People Using A PO Box As Their Address, Felons, Underage Children, And People Residing Outside The State Cast Ballots In Georgia. NYT. [According to] ...Gabriel Sterling, a top election official in Georgia... Mr. Trump said that thousands of people voted despite not being registered to vote. This is impossible ... "You can't do it. There cannot be a ballot issued to you, there's no way to tie it back to you, there's nowhere for them to have a name to correspond back to unless they're registered voters. So that number is zero". Mr. Trump said that thousands of voters died before the election. Mr. Sterling said the secretary of state's office had found only two who might fit that description. Mr. Trump said that hundreds of people voted using PO boxes rather than a residential address. Mr. Sterling said that the secretary of state's office was still investigating, but that everyone it had examined so far had, in fact, used a proper residential address — just one for a multifamily residence or apartment building. Mr. Trump's campaign said that many felons voted. In reality, using records from the state's corrections and probation departments, the secretary of state's office identified only 74 people who might fit that category — and Mr. Sterling said the final number would be even lower once the office completed its investigation, because in many cases, the person might have had their voting rights reinstated after completing a sentence or might simply have the same name as a felon. Mr. Trump's campaign said that tens of thousands of people younger than 18 voted. "The actual number is zero ... and the reason we know that is because the dates are on the voter registration. There are four cases... where people requested their absentee ballot before they turned 18, but they turned 18 by Election Day". Mr. Trump's campaign said that hundreds of voters cast ballots in two states. Mr. Sterling said that officials were still investigating, but that if any such cases were confirmed, it would be "handfuls", and nowhere near enough to change the outcome.

Snopes further notes (in their debunking of Mike Lindell's "Absolute Proof") that (as per Dotard's AG, William Barr), "We have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election".

Appeal to authority? BWAAAH!! (as Minus FJ frequently writes). The facts simply do not support Mike Lindell's allegations. OAN knows this, which is why they ran the disclaimer. Yes, they are concerned about Dominion suing them, but if Mike's allegations were supportable by the facts, OAN would have run the "documentary" without the disclaimer. Because they'd be able to present evidence in court showing Mike's "documentary" was factual. And the lawsuit would be dismissed. Or they'd present their evidence and Dominion (knowing it would lose in court) would drop their lawsuit.

Is this a complete refutation of all of the allegations Mike Lindell made in "absolute proof". I don't think so. The entire thing was 3 hours, of which I watched about 12 minutes. I stopped when Mike threw up a chart that claimed thousands of dead people voted. Why did I need to "refute" an allegation that was made with no evidence backing it up?

Ad hominem was the appropriate response. It is very likely I am going to find out (unless Minus declines to respond) that giving Minus what he asked for isn't going to result in him conceeding that Mike Lindell is full of shit. As acknowledged in the OAN disclaimer. Even that that ABSOLUTELY is the case. And will be why OAN and Mike Lindell lose bigly if Dominion's lawsuit against them goes to court. Not because the judge hearing the case is corrupt.

Judge appointed by a republican (or elected by a republican constituency), judge appointed (or elected by a Democratic constituency)... it doesn't matter. If they rule against the "election frad" liars, they are corrupt. Sure, Minus. If you redefine "corrupt" as applying to anyone who disagrees with your "widespread voter fraud" fantasies.

Crack Addict's "Absolute Proof" Is Not Intended To Be Taken Or Interpreted By The Viewer As Established Fact

The admitted former (?) crack addict Mike Lindell paid One America News (OAN) to air a 3 hour fakeumentary he titled "Absolute Proof". Before the fakeumentary aired a "disclaimer" (with voiceover) indicated that everything the viewer was about to see is total bullshit.

I don't think this disclaimer is going to prevent Dominion from suing OAN. In fact, I think them airing Mike's crack-induced delusions makes it much more likely that they get sued.

A Dominion spokesperson said in a statement to Forbes that Lindell's film is a "repackaging of lies which have been repeatedly debunked" and the company will continue to seek retribution for the allegedly defamatory statements in court. Dominion's attorney Thomas Clare told legal outlet Law & Crime that the disclaimer on Lindell's film would not help OAN avoid legal action from the voting company. "Nice try by OAN, but it definitely does not relieve them of liability", Clare said, saying the company "warned them specifically" not to air the film and they decided to "broadcast it anyway". (excerpt from a 2/5/2021 Forbes article by Alison Durkee).

Cenk Uygur, Jayar Jackson, and Adrienne Lawrence of The Young Turks (who watched the entire 3 hours, apparently) discuss the Mike Lindell fakeumentary (including the absurd disclaimer) in the following video.

Does Mike Lindell have brain damage that causes him to suffer from auditory hallucinations, paranoia and psychosis? One thing we can be sure of is that Lindell's "absolute proof" (which the pro-Dotard blogger Minus FJ says he watched when it aired on OAN) is absolute bullshit.

Mike thinks he was punished for supporting Dotard. I say he's punishing himself more. If he was a former "crack addict to millionaire" success story (and that was the end of the story) I'd say "good for him". Instead he tried to convince Dotard to declare martial law and continues to promote baseless conspiracy theories about how Joe Biden cheated to win (running against the worst president in American history).

Yes, Dotard ran on bringing manufacturing jobs back to America and Lindell employs Americans to make his pillows right here in America. I can see why Mike supported Dotard. But WAKE UP, Dotard lied. He lied about bringing back US manufacturing jobs and he lied about the election being stolen (telling tens of thousands of other lies in between). :(

Magamoron MyPillow Guy (Mike Lindell) Trying To Destroy His Business For Some Reason (Insanity)

So, I'm signed up for texts from NewsMax and at 9:47 last night I get one that says Mike Lindell is going to guest on "Rob Schmitt" (whoever that is). Instead of watching it I went to bed. Wish I had seen it, because according to Dave Miller, it was pretty funny.

So I went looking for it on YouTube. Not posted by NewsMax (which has a YouTube channel) but by Cutter J.

Strange that Rob Schmitt talks over Mike after Mike says he has "100% proof" the election was stolen. You'd think that someone working for NewsMax would definitely want to hear "100% proof". Given that NewsMax is "Trump Media" (an outlet that amplifies Dotard-friendly lies).

Obviously NewsMax is "intimidated" by the lawsuits Dominion is filing for defamation against those who won't stop lying about how they helped Joe Biden steal the election.

But wouldn't "100% proof" be a failsafe defense against a Dominion lawsuit? If they're a serious news organization, SURELY they owe it to their viewers to let "100% proof" be heard. Maybe Rob Schmitt wouldn't let Mike present his proof because he knows it's bullplop?

Even though talking over Mike Lindell likely made some (all?) NewsMax viewers angry. I can imagine magamorons yelling at their teevees, "let him talk!!". Probably why Rob Schmitt had Mike back for a second interview.

In this one Mike stays on topic, which is him getting banned from Twitter. Due to the fact that he wouldn't stop spreading election fraud falsehoods the Liberal owers of Twitter want to stiffle his free speech rights. Because they're fascists. Also participants in the coverup re Joe Biden stealing the election, as he (in a Freudian slip of the tongue) confessed to.

Note that Mike admits, after his personal Twitter account was banned, he stupidly posted the same "100% proof" of election fraud bullplop to his corporate MyPillow account, which was then (of course) banned as well. Mike says he had to hire more people to help ship orders from customers ordering directly from MyPillow. Sure, I believe him.

But that would only be because all (most?) of the stores that carried his product are dropping it. So some of those customers are going to the MyPillow website to place their orders. But (for sure) it isn't all of the customers who would have previously purchased his product in a retail brick-and-mortar location. QED MyPillow is going to lose a lot of business due to their founder's insanity.

For the record, Mike Lindell (as the SNL video above says) actually is a former (?) crack addict. As per a CNBC story "The self-made multimillionaire and infomercial superstar created the MyPillow empire from scratch in 2004. He did it while addicted to drugs".

Now he's trying to destroy his business... defending Dotard? Even if he believes these lies (which he clearly does) you'd think he'd have the good sense to shut up. It isn't as if he efforts to expose the (imaginary) election theft will result in Joe Biden being removed and Dotard being reinstated.

btw, the snl video mentions how Mike Lindell and the 30 Rock actress Jane Krakowski supposedly had an affair. Me, I think it's Krakowski who should be more offended, but Mike claims being linked to Krakowski caused him "significant humiliation and emotional distress". Both parties say the Daily Mail story is false.

Mystere Emerges From Hiding. He's Done Biting The Pillow, Apparently. LOL!

My guess was that the Dotard-supporting blogger Mystere was absent from blogging for over a year because he lost his job due to the pandemic. And because he lost his job he also lost his internet access (or that was one of my guesses). Why else would he say nothing about Dotard's loss to Joe Biden?

Apparently Mystere has been biting the pillow for awhile. While I did notice a short while ago that he had put up a new blog post, the post wasn't about politics.

Today I see that Mystere has had enough and is crying out in pain. What finally caused him to break his silence? The attacks on the "My Pillow" guy, Mike Lindell. Who, after he advocated that Dotard use a military coup to hold on to power, has been told by a number of retailers that they no longer will carry his "My Pillow" merchandise.

Mike Lindell agrees with Mystere about Dotard being sent by God to save the US from the evil Democrats. But a majority of voters could see what a bad job Dotard was doing as predisent and wisely decided to turn out bigly to send him packing. Mike Lindell and Mystere are both nutters. While Mystere hasn't said anything about the Democrats "stealing" the election, Lindell is absolutely convinced that is what happened.

Why Lindell had to meet at the White House with Dotard. He said he tried to tweet the "proof", but Twitter kept removing his tweets. So he had to meet in person with Dotard to advocate for the overthow of Democracy. Now he is suffering the consequenes. But am I gloating with glee that Bed Bath & Beyond, Kohl's, Wayfair are dropping his products?

No. I mean, I want to, but Lindell's products are manufactured in the United States (as least according to the commercials I've seen). If Mike Lindell's business is destroyed because of his hatred for democracy, that would definitely be something to laugh at. But does that mean his employees should suffer? I will pray that they find new jobs.

Also that Satan's servant, Mike Lindell, is not lifted up, but pushed down and driven to ruin. He strongly urged the lunatic who used to occupy the White House to institute Martial Law to unconstitutionally retain the presidency. F*ck him and f*ck Mystere for defending him. And suggesting The Lord should protect the America-hating Lindell from the consequences he richly deserves.

fyi, I label Lindell an Ameria-hater because he desires (and argued for) the end of Democracy by urging a wannabe dictator to throw out the valid results of a democratic election. The votes were counted, then recounted. Then counted again (in some cases). Dotard had his day in court. There is no proof that bigly voter fraud threw the election to Joe Biden, Mike Lindell. You asshole. Amen.

btw, note that Mystere says nothing about the employees of My Pillow in his commentary. His concern is for the America-hating Lindell alone, apparently. Not the Americans who may lose their jobs because their CEO is a Christian-nutter who wanted the worst president in American history to resist a peacefull transfer of power so he could continue destroying America (more economic devastation inflicted upon us by an incompetent predisent's gross mishandling of a once in a generation pandemic).

Today's Inauguration Of Dotard For A Second Term (Some Predictions For Our Country Going Forward)

The Lord has not abandoned us. Donald John tRump will serve a second term. The inauguration of the senile interloper Joseph Robinette Biden will not take place today. The troops are in place for a military coup to set things right. Once Dotard gives the word, those guilty of the seditious act of rigging the 2020 election will be arrested.

Next, following the execution (on live TV) of Joe Biden and his accomplice Kamala Harris, Dotard will be sworn in for a second term. Praise Jesus! Dotard's loyal trumpites were beginning to lose hope, but they should not have doubted that the very stable genius who leads our country would allow the Satanic pedophilic Democrats to plunge our great nation into a Communist nightmare.

Time and again the Deep State thwarted Dotard's attempts to expose the democrat's deception that the election was fairly won. Deep State judges would not listen to the Dotard legal team's exhaustive evidence proving conclusively that the election was rigged. The Supreme Court turned out to be Deep State as well. Even the judges appointed by Dotard himself refused to hear the case and overturn Joe Biden's illegitimate "win".

But Dotard has a final play to set things right. Despite Nancy Pelosi's attempted coup, Dotard is still the comander in chief. When the signal is given, the troops (most of them loyal to Dotard) will make their move. By the way, how could the troops not be loyal to Dotard? Surely men and women who fight for our country realize that life as we know it would end if Joe Biden were installed. We are not a Communist nation, nor will we ever be. Now is the time to fight the enemy within.

Which is what will happen. Although the enemy will be swiftly defeated. If they put up a fight at all. Which, God willing, they will not. The peacefull transfer of power (from a first to a second Dotard administration) will likely go off without a hitch. Given the presence of 20,000 National Guard Troops in Washington DC.

Following Dotard's inauguration, a number of seditious traitors will be hung on the Capitol grounds (as I already mentioned). In addition to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi will face the gallows. Although the evil old hag will likely die of a heart attack before she swings. Additionally, all the members of the House who voted for impeachment will be executed. Be they Democrat, or be they republican. They all betrayed our great leader and deserve to die.

Following the cleansing of our government of traitors, Dotard will return to the oval office to sign a series of executive orders. Executive Order #1 will dissolve the 117th Congress. The 118th Congress will consist of republicans loyal to Dotard. Seats previously held by Democrats will be taken by the republican who ran against said Democrat in the prior election.

The Second Executive order of predisent-for-life Dotard will declare the Democrat Party to be illegal. Members of the DNC will be arrested and put on trial for sedition via military tribunal. Those found guilty will be imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay. This executive order will also provide for the arrest and imprisonment in Gitmo of the Obamagate conspirators (Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller, etc), who will subsequently face military tribunals and execution if/when the traitors are pronounced guilty.

Executive Order #3 will dissolve the Supreme Court. Arrest warrants for all current justices will be issued. They refused to uphold the will of The People, whose choice in the election was clearly Dotard. For this they must be punished. New justices will be appointed at a later date, although one of them will surely be Sydney Powell. Although she will not be named Chief Justice because that positon can only be held by a man. The Chief Justice could possibly be loyal Dotard supporter L. Lin Wood.

Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett could return to the court, following an interrogation re why they did not stand up for our potus. If their explanation and contrition is sufficient, they could be reinstated. Our glorious predisent is nothing if not merciful and forgiving. Although if their explanation and contrition are not sufficiently contrite, they will be imprisoned, along with the pedophile Chief Justice John Roberts, who (if new Chief Justice Linn Wood deems it shall be), will executed by firing squad. Along with the pussy Mike Pence (who will be replaced as VP with Mike Flynn in a Mike for Mike swap).

Dotard's fourth executive order will impose harsh sanctions on China for releasing the Wuhan virus. This is an act of biological warfare for which China must be punished. Predisent Dotard will reserve the right to formally declare war with China at a later date. If Chinese president Xi begs for mercy and agrees to trillions in reparations (to compensate us for the financial harm inflicted upon the US by the Kung Flu), Dotard shall show them mercy.

A fifth executive order will concern the completion of Dotard's Great Wall to keep illegal invaders from crossing our Southern border. It will also cancel DACA and order the arrest and deportation of all of the so-called "dreamers" as well as other other foreign citizens illegally residing within the United States.

In addition to these Executive Orders (and possibly others) Dotard will pardon the patriots who marched on the Capitol to Stop the Steal. They were willing to undergo "trial by combat" in defense of their predisent and should face no punishment. The Presidential Medal of Freedom shall be awarded to Mike Lindell, the "My Pillow" guy for his unwavering support and dedication to his predisent.

For the record, I believe these predictions will prove to be 100 percent innacurate. Although I suspect (at least some) QAnon nutters may believe some (if not all) of them (or some version of them) may still come to pass. LOL.
