Fuck them. Bleed them dry. Fuck them like Gibson Bakery fucked Oberlin University. The only thing these people understand is money.

Can you believe you're involved in perhaps the most consequential lawsuit in the 21st century?!

I always thought you'd be a helluva wingman...until you uttered "higgledy-piggledy"...that just might be grounds for disqualification!...i think you might want to take mulligan and start over with a cocktail...:)

Seriously AB we're with you in spirit. Best $/month value ever.

I already subscrib but would like to send a donation. I might as well pay for both sides of this lawsuit as it is our tax dollars paying for the government. I am 100% on your side

Please send info where I can send you my donation. I know I saw it in a previous email but wasn’t able to send at that time

Keep up the great work

Despite the length of the defense motions, the standard remains the same. All that is required for the complaint to stand are facts that state a plausible claim.

When presented with a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim, the

key inquiry is whether the complaint is “sufficient to provide the defendant with ‘fair notice’ of

the plaintiff’s claim and its basis.” Indep. Tr. Corp. v. Stewart Info. Servs. Corp., 665 F.3d 930,

934 (7th Cir. 2012) (quoting Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 93 (2007)). While “detailed

factual allegations are unnecessary, the complaint must have ‘enough facts to state a claim to

relief that is plausible on its face.’” Pierce v. Zoetis, Inc., 818 F.3d 274, 277 (7th Cir. 2016)

(quoting Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007)).

Best of luck to you and your counsel. Even if you don't post as much, this subscription is still well worth the price.

I hope you eviscerate them.

I wish you luck. You get an A+ for working the term "higgledy-piggledy" into your essay. The people in your suit are responsible for lots of harm and you need to hurt em in the only way they understand and that is in their pocketbook.
