a concise list of 17 easy-to-read sentences
It would be nice to actually see those sentences. But, I can't even find this filing that apparently contains those 17 bullet points.
I guess the lawsuit claims are always fiction, aren't they? Still, I'm trying to conjure up the imaginary fairy-tale future where Patel could have earned US$250 million if only the darn meany newspapers hadn't laughed at him. I'm not coming up with a lot.
NPR was talking about the DOJ suit against the SPLC, and they played a clip of Patel ranting about paid informants or some such sh*t and I just burst out laughing. This man has no credibility anymore.
When exactly did he have ANY?
Patel's federal court filing - which included a plethora of typos - summarized the report's nearly 2,200 words of somewhat dense prose into a concise list of 17 easy-to-read sentences about the damning information provided by more than two dozen anonymous sources, some of them current and former FBI officials or staffers at law-enforcement and intelligence agencies.
They should make some kind of computer program that could find misspelled words and alert you to them. Of course, if you were shitfaced and on ambien it might not work anyway.
In his most prolific writing era, Stephen King would wake up, chug a bottle of NyQuil, snort a fat line of coke, and write and drink the rest of the day (peppering in some additional drug use throughout the day, of course). He doesn't even remember writing entire books but they came out in a coherent form. It's almost like even if the magic spell checking software doesn't work, you can just hire a sober editor to make check your work.
This guy seems cooked, did they tell him to sue so this would happen, directly under the bus? This idiot seems like one of the guys who would go out and spend a bunch of money after a big bank robbery.
This is a guy who would live stream the bank robbery
"20 subs and I jump up on the counter and fire wildly into the air"
😆 Yes.
That Director Patel “recently expressed frustration with the look of FBI merchandise, complaining that it isn’t intimidating enough.”

Only the best... the best drunks, fraudsters, rapists, dead beats... the best
In a way, I can understand him. Or can you expect him to stand Trump and stay sober?
