https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/15/politics/fred-eshelman-voter-fraud-donor-2020-election/index.html So he has money to burn, and now he wants it back? I wonder how many other suckers are going to sue to get their money back after donating it to a scam like this? Ranb

I know we have umpteen threads about Trump already, but I think there should be one more, specifically to discuss civil lawsuits (not criminal charges) against Donald Trump. I don't think this topic fits into any of the present threads about him. If the moderators feel differently, feel free to...

Just when you thought things couldn't get stupider. This 66-Year-Old Woman Is Suing All Gay People—Yes, All of Them [Time]

At this I point I dislike Bezos almost as much as I do Trump.

You're shocked, I know. It was announced that Karen McDougal is suing Fox. I hope she wins and they're forced to ante up for some of their ******** reporting. I tried to think of a thread that this should go in but it really didn't fall in anywhere. I seriously hate Tucker and I hope he gets...

Some sex offenders are suing Butts County [sic] in Georgia because it put up signs on their lawn last Halloween 2018 warning children not to 'trick or treat here'. The claim is, it is a violation of their rights. It seems quite extraordinary to me that officials can point out where sex...

Poetic, I hope she wins (she has the ammunition/evidence) - I always suspected he was an AH. It's about time a lot more hypocritical, liberal frauds are exposed for what they are...

Well they finally did it. They are suing the FBI for their 9/11 Review Commission Report issued in 2015. They even held a press conference with Bob McIlvaine, Mick Harrison, Dave Meiswinkle, and Richard Gage at Newseum, one block from the U.S. District Court. The news confernce can be seen...

Shortly after Trump won the election, and I was busy finding doomsday prep types to start hanging out with, I was with my friend who was getting married soon. He started talking about how he might have kids with his soon to be wife. I told him he was crazy to bring a kid into the world of Trump...

I believe this Stormy Daniels topic is specific enough to merit its own thread. I doubt the mods want to dig through and move posts over, but perhaps we can consolidate future posts on that topic here. In summary of current events: Trumps lawyer, Cohen, claimed to have paid Stormy Daniels...
