what's obvious is that you have lost your mind. Tell me counsel, how many Mickey Mouse lawsuits has your client been involved in during his adult life? Four thousand, five thousand, six thousand? How many?
and now let us delve into each of these cases, one by one and re-examine the fact base because I'll keep your client in court for the next 20 years if that's what you wish to do.
This is how I passed my first job interview 🤪

Fox’s migrants-displaced-vets source was charged with fraud. The network hasn’t mentioned it.
WRITTEN BY MATT GERTZ
PUBLISHED 05/06/24 2:25 PM EDT
After Fox News promoted a hoax about homeless veterans being “evicted” from New York hotels to house migrants last year, some of the network’s anchors said they would provide viewers more information “as we get it.” That promise was apparently disingenuous: Fox has yet to report that the originator of the bogus story now faces federal fraud charges.
On Wednesday, federal prosecutors charged Sharon Toney-Finch, an Army veteran whose Yerik Israel Toney Foundation claims to “help homeless and low-income military service veterans in need of living assistance,” with multiple counts of fraud. They alleged that she raised funds for the group by falsely claiming to have received a Purple Heart after surviving a terrorist attack and spent the group’s money on personal expenses. They also alleged she received “hundreds of thousands of dollars in disability benefits” by falsifying her military discharge paperwork to match her story.
Toney-Fitch drew notoriety as the source for a May 12, 2023, New York Post report in which she alleged that nearly two dozen homeless veterans her organization had been helping were kicked out hotels in upstate New York to make room for migrants.
The story became a cause celebre for right-wing commentators seeking to demonize migrants and attack Democratic politicians. But Toney-Smith’s tale collapsed within days, as local news outlets reported that she had fabricated her story and the homeless veterans had never existed.
Fox, which relentlessly portrays migrants as dangerous criminals conducting an “invasion” of the United States, picked up Toney-Fitch’s hoax the day after the Post published its initial story. Fox News and Fox Business gave the story, which Fox claimed to have “confirmed,” more than an hour of credulous coverage over six days.
“This is pretty infuriating, homeless vets who served our great country, they’re being put out on the street and replaced by illegal immigrants,” prime-time star Sean Hannity alleged in one such segment.
But as the story unraveled, Fox personalities began backtracking and admitting they had been duped. On May 24, 2023, several Fox anchors read an on-air statement which said in part, “We've since learned that veterans advocates misled local officials, and it now turns out those eviction claims were false. We want to update you on this story, make sure the record was set straight, and we’ll get more to you as we get it.”
Apparently the “veterans advocate” behind the story facing criminal charges after allegedly faking a Purple Heart and defrauding the government of hundreds of thousands of dollars in benefits wasn’t worth mentioning.

way beyond my pay grade but I've always loved my fellow staffers... and the giraffes, I learn new stuff every day. A lot of the branches they eat are supplied by the electric company that has to cut down trees around their wires so instead of going to the dump they bring them to us to feed our friends with.
We keep the pens/exhibits tidy and really don't have any interactions with them but it's always great to see the final results..
LOL when I was little and going there we always had a bag of marshmallows to feed them. Now they are forbidden on the premises the same as salted nuts. Like I got in trouble for feeding my buddy potato chips, things have really evolved to a brighter day.😊
LOL well mine was alcohol induced and sometimes shit happens when you least expect it. It's not fair and there could be many reasons for it but we all do face the probability....
I've seen a couple shows on the island and enjoyed them.. Never knew about the fire. LOL I remember Meigs Field being a disaster and always just thought it was a spot for the uber wealthy to park their little toy planes before they boarded their yachts.
It would serve them well to plop a new stadium there and reclaim all the land around solider field but as we know a lot of that is just a couple century old garbage dump so there would really have to be some good engineers involved.
It might be too late in the process to change course now. All that planning is not cheap and someone has to pay for it. I still think Arlington Heights really screwed the pooch and Pritzger has already said that the state will not pick up the tab either.
Probably mumbled under his breath something about getting a real football team too. Same thing with the White Sox.
I said a few years ago when we were working in the old post office that the developers there had thousands of pages of plans to build south down the river on the vacant and somewhat occupied land there. I haven't kept up with it but I don't think they have broken any ground since. The pandemic probably stopped them from their high rise fascination.
I'm guessing that it is not a farce. I just don't understand how that is some major type of flex. I've actually seen hundreds of photos like that. I guess someday I'll need to wear a diaper too but I wouldn't like it to be broadcast to the entire world. There's nothing wrong with it if we really need them, incontinence is a problem we all face.
LOL When I would get really wasted I passed out, then piss and shit myself too.(reason # 20022 why I'm divorced) The only thing missing is the vomit .. Something I'm not proud of but it does happen for us addicts. I just don't put it on a t-shirt but those idiots are proud. I bought new pants with my own money, no diaper yet but the jury is still out on the way it might go..
We had a pair of baldies up in Michigan on the lake we lived on. Majestic creatures. Way better fisherman than I could ever be.. I just hope they are going after the carp and not my pets.
It's pretty cool that they are making a comeback here.. We have even got the blackbirds back after the west nile virus took them out. They are like the six million dollar man, better, stronger, faster.
LOL I can't discredit what some people think they have seen but it really makes no sense for space people to build an entire civilization and then just abandon the planet. One night I was in my backyard with my previous dog, a bird swooped down on us and I swear it was the size of a small airplane with at least a 15 foot wingspan. I'm not sure if I was inebriated to the point of me seeing things but I probably was.
It was really weird and I've always remembered it to the end of questioning my own judgement but I always keep an eye on the sky these days. No UFO's yet but some big owls and hawks do sail past that have no discernible markings..
They really are gentle giants. We had a new addition to the herd last fall. Little Kinda is doing well. LOL I shouldn't call her little because she's like 10 feet tall already and looking forward to summer with all the visitors.🦒🤗
last one.... 😁♥️ you are all beautiful as you feel.
we should always connect to our roots though. Sometimes it's soothing but other times it can be tough when described in prose...
then I just got wicked.. It's my own fault, nobody else's
this was more my style, even though hip hop was coming on strong.
I mean, this is the shit they passed for music in the 80's if you wanted to be a'cool kid'. I know every word and admit I still like it.
my first show... My bad aunt took me lol. She wound up having sex with my dad but I'll never forget Jerry and the band. I had seen some others before that but I was absolutely captivated by the groove.
you're giving yourself way too much credit and again making an ass of yourself in defense of a rapist.
May whoever up there have mercy on your soul.. because I don't.
you're a fool, but I learned that long ago. You're the guy who said that any legal outcome would be justifiable and you would accept it, you didn't, you still go to bat for this jerkoff every day.. It's rather embarrassing.
How many women have you sexually assaulted in your life, old man? I'm with a couple others, thinking the numbers might be up there. You're just a limp dick now and couldn't have intercourse if you tried but you sure like to call the play by plays.
I spent some time in China and even though it wasn't in Beijing or Hong Kong we had to go through either one to get to our destination., You can bet your bottom dollar that the women are completely under control and this was 15-20 years ago... I went to parts of the Middle East and some of the Korean Peninsula on my journeys as well too. There was no way I was going to stay there and work, no matter how much they paid me..
I missed home. I'm happy here (was happier before but everyone knows I fucked up). I wasn't authorized to carry any firearms, just a worker bee that all the ants surrounded. I kept my mouth very shut just like a good boy should, but I saw it...
They are, have you ever been to Japan? Ever met a geisha girl? Again, true comments are not suspect.
Would you rather he ordered 10 pizzas for a firehouse?
did you read past the headline , or should I post the whole article for people who can't read past the headline?
talk about being sensitive.. You've been complaining for years that immigrants have taken your job and are threatening the rest of the country. Maybe if you did your job better than the immigrants, you wouldn't have lost it.
roll your eyes all you want to. It will probably make you dizzy and make you feel like you are buzzed. It's free and very effective. It still doesn't change the fact that your idiocy is on stage here.
Oh, is that supposed to hurt me in some form or fashion? Do you even know what a douche is? If you really live in New Orleans you only have to poke your head out of your big blue shingled roof to find out..
My mom and sister too ☹️ My sis actually works for the state but is oblivious to everything and I can't figure out how. Mom is a little more on her game but she's up there on the age scale and has completely run out of fucks to give, so she has some opinions that she knows only matter to me. Mom would be hung in a public lynching if she told her church group how she really felt..
Friends are important in that stage of life.. Sometimes it's better just to get along to keep going on.
I shouldn't go there but Don doesn't wipe his own ass because you're always there to lick it clean after you change his diaper.
I've bought plenty of food for everyone from first responders to homeless people in my life but I never got somebody to give me a front page write up about it and nor did I need one to boost my ego. Methinks Murdoch is down there swapping spit around the rim there with you.....
good to stay informed on polls that canvas 1000 people out of 200 million or so that vote. I hope that's what brings you out on election day.
"I cant create an original thought, so I'll just do what the poll tells me"
No doubt about that, but they shouldn't be used as political pawns either. Now he should do it for every firehouse in the city.
They all have to stage but just don't run in for a photo opportunity and leave. Sit down, share a meal and actually talk to the people that you desire to represent.
"Here's 10 pizzas, gotta go tell everyone how great I am" is not a thing I want in a politician.
I've been on jobsites with 50+ people and we would not be able to consume ten pizzas that large. I saw maybe 6 actual fire men and the chief who where on duty in that picture so they must have been very hungry.. So 300 bucks bought him a photo op. Big deal. Lots of leftovers. Now he should do that at every firehouse in the city and that would be something.
everything that guy does is staged. A couple weeks ago he walked into a chicken restaurant and got completely fawned over by some black folks. He tried to play it up but it tuned out that those people were GOP operatives. He pretended to buy milkshakes for everyone but the owner actually ate the cost.
not saying that the campaign didn't buy those pizzas because I don't know but he was only there for 10 minutes and it sure looked like secret service agents were the delivery men.
I'm so sick of the huge SS detail he has. We pay for all that and any other ex president never travels like that anywhere. It's a joke.

So, you are admitting that your client was justifiably found liable for his past transgressions but the fines are excessive? LOL the 8th amendment was written so they would stop people from being 'drawn and quartered' before their alleged crimes were heard in a court of law.
I personally wouldn't mind if they did that to your boy, but laws are laws and we all have to abide by them.
As far as the fines go, it is the same thing. He had his day in court and got his judgement. Nobody was unjustifiably fining him before his verdict and he was never held on unreasonable bail. The criminal cases, one might argue that he walked free and is still walking free for insurrection, treason and fraud against the United States but I'm not an attorney so I cannot provide any nuance there.
If anyone of us committed the crimes that he's accused of, we'd have been sent to a federal penitentiary a long time ago.. He somehow gets a pass because fucksticks like you voted for him and keep sending him your money to pay for his half assed defense team to challenge the constitution at every turn.
I do catch that show every once in awhile when I'm channel surfing. You have provided an apt description of the channel and its content. I used to watch Ancient Aliens a lot but not so much for the space people theories, rather the architecture of some of those exotic places.
And your law firm partner of the prestigious Hap, Habba, Dabba, and Doo really brought a compelling defense in all those cases. Your client is on the hook for over 600 million and counting.
well, I agree with you but that's still up for debate until his orange ass is finally in the slammer.
