U.S. District Judge Linda Parker for the Eastern District of Michigan is holding a hearing Monday morning on whether or not to sanction some of the loudest propagators of the most brazenly absurd conspiracy theories around the 2020 election.

Judge Parker denied a request from attorneys Lin Wood, Sidney Powell, and others to have an attorney represent them at the hearing. So, on Monday, the pro-Trump attorneys who sought to cast doubt over the 2020 results are appearing over Zoom regarding a measure of accountability over conspiracies about a stolen election.

    Judge Parker may have some choice words for these folks, but it’s just a hearing, and it’s on Zoom. I’m not expecting many fireworks out of this.

  3. Whether?

    Cut the malarkey, and do it.

  4. Lin Wood chimed in: “I played absolutely no role in the drafting of the complaint.”

    Co-counsel Sgt. Shultz concurs.
