‘Not relevant’: Federal court hands MyPillow and Lindell a loss when it comes to compelling ‘attenuated at best’ testimony of DOJ and ex-DNI officials in Dominion lawsuit
Law & Crime ^ | Colin Kalmbacker

Posted on 06/09/2024 6:57:32 AM PDT by joesbucks

In November 2022, the first subpoena was filed against John Negroponte, the former director of national intelligence — despite no prior involvement in the lawsuit on either side. Then, in June 2023, My Pillow, Inc. filed a motion to compel the testimony of Department of Justice attorney, Carlotta Wells. The career government lawyer, again, was not previously involved in the civil dispute between the voting machine companies and the bedding retailer up to that point.

“First, as Lindell does not dispute, Wells and Negroponte do not have any personal or direct knowledge regarding the allegedly defamatory statements at issue,” the opinion goes on. “At most, because Lindell claims that he made his statements about Dominion in part based on what he ‘heard’ from and about Montgomery related to Montgomery’s work with the U.S. Government, the only potential knowledge that Wells and Negroponte possess is information from almost twenty years ago about Montgomery’s work with the U.S. Government in an unrelated matter.”

Put another way, testimony from Wells and Negroponte about why the United States sought and enforced a protective order in unrelated litigation almost 20 years ago is irrelevant to this case because it is not the actual basis for Lindell’s statements about Dominion vis-à-vis the 2020 election. That Lindell did not seek to verify the information he “received” and “heard” about Montgomery’s work with the U.S. Government when making his statements related to the 2020 U.S. election does not now make that information relevant.

Rat Party Headquarters wants to drive Lindell to bankruptcy...and it looks like they're succeeding. Of course they'd be thrilled if they could arrange for him to do 5 years in Federal prison as well. We'll see if they succeed there.

Several elements here are a lot like E. Jean Carroll’s case in other words.

My prediction is Mike Lindell is going to end up in the same situation as Alex Jones, first he gets hit with a massive judgement in a lawsuit, he will have to file bankruptcy and MyPilliow will probably go under.

One side is fighting a war and playing for keeps. The other side doesn’t even realize what’s going on. Hard to be optimistic when the bad guys are rolling up the opposition unchecked.

IMHO we were baited - i.e., Lindell took it - and he made himself vulnerable by making statements for which he henceforth made them look like the victim and reinforced the narrative that there was ‘no evidence of fraud’.

Bottom line: They had to protect the dominions et al to prevent undermining their goal of making all voting electronic.

I can’t see that happening, but unfortunately Lindell made that more possible than before he opened his ill-advised mouth.

In jone’s case, the court determined that he can not file for bankruptcy if I recall right.

Asking to depose 2 people who have no knowledge of what he’s claiming is somehow bias against him?

Where have you been, we’ve had multiple threads on FR about Alex Jones and his bankruptcies which has caused him to lose control over Infowars and will be sold off including all the assets, he’s also in personal bankruptcy as well.

My comment was bout him not being able to use bankruptcy to avoid paying off the families

“Judge Rules Alex Jones Can’t Use Bankruptcy Protection to Avoid Paying Sandy Hook Families”

I wasn’t sure if folks knew that judgement had been passed on him or not- if there were already discussions about it, then I didn’t see them here.

“They had to protect the dominions et al to prevent undermining their goal of making all voting electronic”

And the ferocity with which they fight proves that it is precisely as alleged: that’s how they win. NO WAY are they letting it go.

Electronic vote counting was banned in Shasta County, CA and the California State Legislature went to war spearheaded by Santa Cruz County nutjob Gail Pellerin, a nasty little blonde Rat party apparatchik, making it ILLEGAL to do hand counts!

There isn’t ANY reason why the state should mandate that, there is obviously no proof that electronic counting is “safer” or more reliable. So ye shall know them by their obsessions: if they can’t get into your system and diddle the numbers, they KNOW they’ll get defeated.

The change has happened in the last couple of weeks.

Here’s an article about the Sandy Hook Families agreeing to Alex Liquidating his assets to settle the judgement.

Blaming Lindell is idiotic. This is just another case of our despotic fascist state attacking anyone who queastions the state or the companies they use to control society.

That they do- they want them completely destroyed, bankrupt, unable to make a living, and if possible put in prison for life regardless of how devastating it would be to their fami,ies to be imprisoned.

The evil that is emanating from the left is tremendous. They have started a hostile takeover of our nation, imprisoning anyone that gets in their way- there is now little difference between them and north Korea, China, Russia, etc. The left’s tyranical assault on Americans is actually all out hostile and dangerous. They own or controll all the power in the nation ie the control fbi, courts, lawyers, judges, the msm, social media, cops, on and on it goes. They have the means to imprison people for doing nothing more than exercising their constitutional rights, and they are doing so.
