    Tipsters assist FBI in arresting Knoxville man who thinks his arrest was unneccesary.


    Knoxville man facing charges from Capitol riot says arrest ‘unnecessary’ | WATE 6 On Your Side

    excerpt:

    "Tips from relatives and old friends on Facebook, eventually led FBI agents to the home he and his girlfriend share in North Knoxville.

    “There was a bunch of just FBI guys and I’m looking around saying oh my God. This is all because he was in the Capitol on January 6?” Holly Houssner, Meteer’s girlfriend, said of the scene.

    She and Meteer both believe since he was nonviolent, and his arrest was unnecessary.

    “It was a protest and it got a little out of hand but to actually find all these people on Facebook or whatever to go and then come to your house and raid like I’m some kind of mass murderer or something? This is insanity,” Houssner said."

    Trump calls police officer who killed Capitol rioter Ashli Babbitt a murderer: 'We know who he is'

    excerpt:

    "Former President Donald Trump ratcheted up his rhetoric against the law enforcement officer who shot Capitol rioter Ashli Babbitt, calling them a murderer and ominously warning that "we know who he is" in a Wednesday statement.

    Babbitt died after being shot by a law enforcement officer as she tried to climb through a broken window to get into the Speaker's Lobby during the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol."

    Of course Trump bears no responsibility for her death, he never incited a riot. In fact there never was a riot, it was a peaceful protest. As her cult leader he didn't inspire her to climb through a broken window approaching secret service agents who were openly waving guns.

    Oh, and he always paid his taxes, never lied and honestly believes that the election was stolen from him.

    Texas House Speaker signs civil arrest warrants to return absent Democrats to chamber

    Texas House Speaker signs civil arrest warrants to return absent Democrats to chamber

    excerpt:

    "AUSTIN, Texas – House Speaker Dade Phelan late Tuesday signed 52 arrest warrants for Democrats who left the state for Washington, D.C., in July and have yet to return to the House chamber for the second special legislative session of the year.

    The warrants came after Texas House Republicans voted to direct state law enforcement to track down and compel the attendance of absent Democrats by a vote of 80-12, the second time such a vote has been taken amid the Democratic lawmakers efforts' to prevent passage of a bill overhauling state election laws.

    The warrants, first reported by the Dallas Morning News, were expected to be delivered to the House sergeant-at-arms Wednesday morning, according to Phelan spokesperson Enrique Marquez."

    Background on Clark.


    Trump Attempted a Coup. Here’s Why That Still Matters

    excerpt:

    "A little background about Clark: He’s most famous for being one of the lawyers who defended BP after the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, an event that many have called the largest environmental catastrophe in American history. He’s also famous for saying that efforts to curb greenhouse gas emissions were “reminiscent of a Leninist program from the 1920s to seize control of the commanding heights of the economy.” Anyway, that guy was basically the engine of Trump’s attempts to overturn the election.

    According to The New York Times, all of this started after Trump announced the resignation of Attorney General Bill Barr on December 14. The next day Trump called acting A.G. Rosen to the Oval Office, hoping to pressure the DOJ to back his supporters’ lawsuits to overturn his loss and “urged Mr. Rosen to appoint special counsels to investigate not only unfounded accusations of widespread voter fraud but also Dominion, the voting-machines firm.” Rosen wouldn’t do it, however, nor would Richard Donoghue, the deputy attorney general.

    Yet Trump had a believer in Clark. In December, Clark gave Rosen and Donoghue the rather Trumpy line that he had “spent a lot of time reading on the internet—a comment that alarmed them because they inferred that he believed the unfounded conspiracy theory that Mr. Trump had won the election,” according to the Times."

    Trump Attempted a Coup. Here’s Why That Still Matters

    excerpt:

    "And then The New York Times reported last weekend that Rosen on Friday told the Justice Department watchdog and congressional investigators that Clark and Trump had “unauthorized conversations” about getting the DOJ to cast doubt publicly on Biden’s victory. The goal was to undermine the count in the battleground states—Trump’s obsession, the red-to-blue state of Georgia, among them. Clark drafted a letter that he wanted acting A.G. Rosen to send to Georgia state legislators, contending that they should void Biden’s victory because the DOJ was investigating voter fraud in the state (though they were not). But that plot didn’t work, either—Clark wasn’t able to get his way, Rosen and Donoghue stayed on, and Congress certified the election on the morning of January 7, despite the best efforts of Trump and many of his supporters in the Republican Party."

    Clark was assistant attorney general for the environment and natural resources division of the DOJ and acting head of the DOJ’s civil division.

    It figures that Trump would select someone like Clark to try to solicit acting AG Rosen to overturn the 2020 presidential election result.

    Dominion Lawsuits Against Sidney Powell, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell And Giuliani Can Move Forward, Court Rules

    excerpt:

    "U.S. District Judge Carl J. Nichols threw out Powell, Lindell and Giuliani’s motions to dismiss the lawsuits on every count, striking down Giuliani’s argument that his should be thrown out on more technical procedural grounds as well as Powell and Lindell’s arguments their cases should be moved from Washington, D.C., to courts in Texas and Minnesota if they moved forward."

    During the court proceedings, Lindell can claim his defense team was hacked by the Chinese through thermostats.

    My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell fled the stage at his cyber symposium at the same time news broke that Dominion's billion-dollar defamation lawsuit against him would proceed

    MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was seen dashing off the stage at his cyber symposium at the same time news broke that the $1.3 billion defamation suit filed against him by Dominion Voting Systems will go ahead.

    Lindell attempted to have this defamation lawsuit against him dismissed during a hearing in June. But US District Judge Carl J. Nichols on August 11 ruled that the three defamation lawsuits against Lindell and Trump lawyers Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani, which are seeking more than a billion dollars in damages from each party, are slated to proceed in full.

    Nichols noted in his judgment that the First Amendment offers "no blanket immunity" to Lindell in the Dominion lawsuit. The company alleges it was defamed by Lindell's false claims that it rigged the election against Trump.

    At the very least, the ol' pillow palooka will have to pony up millions in legal fees. Well everybody, I wonder if Donnie's got his bags packed and plane ticket for his ride back to Washington tomorrow.

    Whether these people win or lose the lawsuits, folks are going to have to be taught the reality about what they consider 'free speech' and their 'personal freedoms' ............that is, if you are allowed to hit your targets, then the targets have a right to hit back.
