A group of attorneys who sued the state of Michigan over the disputed 2020 election results have been ordered by a judge to pay about $175,000.
U.S. District Judge Linda Parker , who was nominated to her post by former President Barack Obama in 2013, ordered nine attorneys — including Sidney Powell and Lin Wood — to pay $21,964.75 to Michigan and $153,285.62 to the city of Detroit, according to Forbes .
Parker wrote in her opinion that the amount was an “appropriate sanction … needed to deter Plaintiffs’ counsel and others from engaging in similar misconduct in the future.”
Parker has said the attorneys’ lawsuit was “a historic and profound abuse of the judicial process.”
“This case was never about fraud — it was about undermining the People’s faith in our democracy and debasing the judicial process to do so,” she wrote in August when she ruled against the attorneys.

“I undertook no act in Michigan and I had no involvement in the Michigan lawsuit filed by Sidney Powell,” he said.Parker ordered the attorneys to undergo at least 12 hours of “continuing legal education” on pleading standards and election law.The attorneys were also referred to disciplinary boards in the places where they are licensed “for investigation and possible suspension or disbarment.”Their lawsuit had argued that President Joe Biden’s win in Michigan came through fraud and called for former President Donald Trump to be declared the winner of the Michigan vote.Parker dismissed the suit in December, saying that it was based on “nothing but speculation and conjecture.”David Fink, a lawyer for the city of Detroit, said the lawyers “abused the federal courts to advance the big lie,” according to the Post.They must pay a price for their misconduct, and this ruling is a good start,” he said.Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said the attorneys […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
