    Apparently he also said something like "now I understand why innocent people take the Fifth," thereby acknowledging that he might not, in fact, have been perfect before. Also, since the same court and head DA has a criminal action against him, he sought (and got) a ruling that he can take the Fifth in the civil proceeding, because of the very real potential of crossover.

    But taking the fifth in that civil case still means it can be interpreted as an admission of guilt. On Twitter, attorney Tristan Snell (formerly with the NY AG) stated that the NY AG just got exactly what they wanted from that (non)testimony. See:

  12. I'm seeing this being discussed by an attorney on Twitter:

    18 U.S. Code § 2071 - Concealment, removal, or mutilation generally

    (a)
    Whoever willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or, with intent to do so takes and carries away any record, proceeding, map, book, paper, document, or other thing, filed or deposited with any clerk or officer of any court of the United States, or in any public office, or with any judicial or public officer of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
    (b)
    Whoever, having the custody of any such record, proceeding, map, book, document, paper, or other thing, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies, or destroys the same, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both; and shall forfeit his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States. As used in this subsection, the term “office” does not include the office held by any person as a retired officer of the Armed Forces of the United States.
     
    Sounds like a good way to pre-emptively make sure a deranged moron isn't running in 2024. And consider that the current head of the FBI is Christopher Wray, appointed by Trump.

    Update on this if anyone cares -

    So I just did the second oil change.  First was at 3000 miles per dealer reccomendation.  This one was at 30,000 miles four years later.   Here's the oil.

    That looks like magazine ad for a tasty new jug wine.

    Well he did make promises important to his base. Like eliminating the Department of Education.

    And also promised to replace Obomacare with something better, cheaper, and it would cover everybody.

  22. From Fark.com:

    So how could Captain Chemtrails not be told by his lawyers about the text records oopsie? Here's an oldie that reminds us that he doesn't talk with his lawyers

    From June 2: Alex Jones' attorney Norm Pattis asks to be dropped from Sandy Hook defamation case as trial looms

    “We are in an untenable position — our communication with our client has broken down,” said Cameron Atkinson, a lawyer who works with high-profile New Haven attorney Norm Pattis. “We have not had direct communication with our client in over a month.”

    State Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis said she has heard that story before. She listed 13 separate motions where Pattis and other attorneys have either replaced each other or asked to be dropped from Jones’ case over the last four years. In an unusually lengthy ruling, Bellis called it a “tortured history of appearances,” which was “convoluted and bizarre.”

     

    So when you won't talk to your own attorneys, don't expect their stories to correlate with yours, or even have the same information.
