Let me ruin the suspense for everyone. Trump doesn't have an appeal.

I know the talking heads on TV (who have never tried a case or appealed a jury verdict) have to mention it. Here's why it isn't going to fly.

To have a meritorious appeal, you have to preserve a reversible error at the trial level. This is why you hire competent counsel. You need someone who actually knows the rules of evidence and procedure.

Alina Habba had no clue what was occurring throughout the trial. She not only failed to preserve any remote grounds for appeal, like a moron, she repeatedly and unintentionally waived them over and over.

For example, she kept saying "no objection" as exhibits were entered into evidence.

It appeared to me that she was saying that because she that's something she had heard real lawyers say before.

Unfortunately for Mr. Trump, what she was doing over and over was waiving his ability to appeal over those evidentiary issues. Because she is a moron who would rather *play* lawyer than do the research to *be* a lawyer.

There's no appeal here. And because people have asked me in the past, no, there is no such thing as an incompetent counsel defense in civil cases. That's for criminal matters.

Take this verdict to the bank. Need an example from the transcript? Here you go...

The Tough Guy in this video is Aaron Spradlin. He runs a cosplay "global security" firm bullying citizens on behalf of elected officials. I've never met the guy but he just called me at 10PM to cry that I id'ed him.

His number was 615 483 2424 since he likes to talk. You might remember Aaron Spradlin and his company, Pale Horse GRS.

When he and his boys aren't pushing around journalists, they're ripping off the state through price gouged PPE during a pandemic @NC5PhilWilliams

On my student loan lawsuit, I'm getting a lot of requests for the letter I sent initiating this process. I'm going to post it now. This is just an example. It's specific to my situation, so don't use it yourself without consulting an attorney. Image You'll see the letter is focused on challenging the chain of title and forcing this "lender" to provide evidence they bought any loan I was a party to.

Re-upping this for no particular reason. The easiest lawsuit I ever filed and any one can do it.

In my experience, none of these student loan servicers / loan sharks kept proper chain of title. You challenge their ownership, they decline to respond, you get a default judgment. I have been meaning to put up a website w the template filings so that others can do it themselves.

Ironically, this started bc I tried to pay off my student loans. The "lender" wasn't the bank I borrowed from. When I asked for proof they owned the debt, they couldn't provide it

The receipts from Speaker @CSexton25's coverup of GOP sexual abuse & harassment of teenage interns continue to leak out.

Sexton secretly used thousands of dollars to move a 19y/o female aide out of her apt complex where her Republican Abuser also lived & into a hotel

/1 The specifics, again, confirm the coverup was directed from the top. These are exceptional and unique attempts at avoiding detection that would & could not be undertaken by some junior staffer

The intern was given $935 in CASH to cover her lost deposit. Who had the authority

Life comes at you fast. Less than a month ago Speaker @CSexton25 was secretly living his best life in Nashville.

Sexton "wrongly applied for, self-approved & received taxpayer funds totaling approximately $79k... punishable by 8-30 years in prison."

popular.info/p/watchdog-gro… @CSexton25 The letter to District Attorney Glenn Funk (a Democrat) notes that he prosecuted Nashville's then-mayor (also a Democrat) under nearly identical circumstances -- alleged theft of public funds for illegitimate travel expenses.

This will be difficult for @DavidsonCoDA to ignore. Image

🧵There is a very important piece of @NC5PhilWilliams exposé that remains to be finished...

Speaker @CSexton25 was delivered a memo detailing the sexual harassment of a 19y/o intern by GOP Rep. Campbell on March 29.

Critical to the findings was that Campbell was harassing

/1 Image the teenager in a well-known downtown complex popular with legislators where both the victim and Campbell had apartments.

Phil has unearthed the fact that "legislative officials" - after confirming the crime - then spent thousands of $s to move THE VICTIM out of the building
