DESCRIPTION:

 

Elon Musk discovers that filing a lawsuit against Sam Altman and sh*tposting about it on social media is a lot more fun than testifying

 

Alex Jones is back on his BS. He managed to delay a proposed deal to license InfoWars assets to the satirical news outlet The Onion. Again.

 

The judge presiding over Trump's shakedown case against the IRS for the wrongful disclosure of his tax returns in 2020 has appointed a whole squad of lawyers to serve as amici. They'll brief the issue of whether the court has jurisdiction to preside over a case where the president appears to be suing himself.

 

L&C's Doofus of the Day is Pete Hegseth.

 

MAIN SHOW:

 

James Comey has been indicted again. This time his "crime" is posting a picture of seashells arranged to say "8647." It is exceptionally stupid, but we will break it down in exceptional detail.

 

As a companion to our written post, we unpack Wednesday's Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Callais effectively gutting Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Subscribers will get a deep dive into what the new districts might look like with Joe Dye.

 

Finally, we'll cringe our way through the DOJ's latest motion in the ballroom case — it's the most inappropriate, unprofessional thing we've ever seen, including from pro se litigants.
