I missed a court date to present evidence that I went to a distracted driver course due to COVID. Fuckers STILL tried to suspend my license.

My guess is if I were possibly accused of conspiracy/sedition/etc. and didn’t show up to answer questions I would have been hunted down by U.S. marshals and dragged directly to jail. I would not pass GO. I would not collect $200. The same should be happening to Mr. Meadows—and everyone knows it…

Taking a "special person" to court on "exceptional charges" is very different.

You probably won't hire a legal firm with a $100,000 retainer and $500/hour rates.

These CREEPS will fill the docket with crap manufactured by the Federalist Society and other RW/libertarian/russian groups.

No contest, your honor [sic].
