mike “lumpy pillow” lindell has long looked forward to showing the “proof” of his baseless, slanderous claims that the election was stolen. Get yourself comfy, grab your favored receptacle fulla popcorn and favorite drink/s, and let’s watch this foul flower unfold its petals together, shall we?

Attorney Christopher Kachouroff and the law firm of McSweeney Cynkar & Kachouroff were fined $3,000, jointly and severally. Attorney Jennifer DeMaster was separately ordered to pay $3,000.
Boy, those lawyers got off easy. Especially considering the record of repeatedly screwing up:
As we wrote in an April article, Kachouroff and DeMaster said they accidentally filed a “prior draft” instead of the correct version. But Wang’s order yesterday said that even the so-called “correct” version “still has substantive errors,” such as inaccurate descriptions of previous cases. The original version has nearly 30 defective citations.
Wang wasn’t convinced by Kachouroff’s argument that the error-riddled filing “represents a clear deviation from what my practice has been,” and was just a one-off mistake. Wang wrote that Kachouroff did the same thing in a different court:
Finally, this Court turns to Mr. Kachouroff’s statement that “Doc. 283 represents a clear deviation from what my practice has been, and given the number of errors, it is just as reasonable to presume that the document could have been a mistake, especially when I commented during the hearing that this must have been a draft.” But this assertion is belied by similar conduct before a different federal court. The Court takes judicial notice that, just seven days after this Court issued the Order to Show Cause, the same defense counsel team quietly filed two Notices of Errata regarding their briefing in Pelishek v. City of Sheboygan. Those errata demonstrate the same type of errors in the filed Opposition, including citations to cases that do not exist.
…This “is the least severe sanction adequate to deter and punish defense counsel in this instance,” US District Judge Nina Wang wrote…
3 grand?! What a joke. Should fine the lawyers 30 grand a piece, and the firm 300 grand! No one should be pulling this shit and essentially get away with it!
