Dominion will quietly drop their suits when they find that under the rules of discovery they have to hand over their proprietary system data, and that every state that used their machines will be subpoenaed to hand over the data that they are legally obligated to retain as voting records. Michigan destroyed their voting records illegally but Arizona, Georgia and some counties in Pennsylvania have had their records seized by law enforcement and the attorney generals have agreed to supply the data. It’s gonna get really interesting.

Nothing to see here folks, back to selling more pillows


“Dominion alleges Lindell and others made claims they should have reasonably known where false, after dozens of lawsuits were rejected in swing states, many because they lacked evidence. Lindell produced and paid for air time for a documentary he says back up his claim.

The suit claims Lindell relied on information "deliberately misrepresented, manufactured, cherry-picked, and sourced from con artists and conspiracy theorists."

Totally agree, there’s no way they want to be subjected to the type of scrutiny discovery obligation would bring. They ‘re posturing , for appearance.

I don't think that would necessarily be the case. Dominion is suing Lindell for defamation. While this all revolves around the validity of the election, that isn't what this particular suit is about. It is about statements he made in regards to a company. The onus of proving the validity of his statements would be his burden, not the courts.

Now if Dominion was the defendant in a case over the accuracy of their machines and software, I could see that happening, but I would think there would have to be some significant evidence to first convince a judge to order such a thing.

If the overwhelming evidence Lindell claims to have does hold up in court, that would likely spur an investigation of their conduct in regards to election results. That would have nothing to do with the defamation suit and be an entire different case. If Lindell does actually have such evidence, what would be the benefit of not already releasing it?

Where this case may actually fall apart is Dominion proving that Lindell's statements had such a significant financial impact. Cancelled contracts, loss of sales, etc. Even if they do have such evidence, they would have to prove that it was a result of Lindell and not some other factor.

Dominion will have to refute lindell’s data to prove that his statements are false and inaccurate, and lindell will have to prove the data he has is accurate and what his statements are based on. The validity of the election is a sidebar to the accuracy of the data. If the data shows that lindell’s statements are accurate, then there is no defamation as the veracity of his statements will be proven. The court has no burden of proof, just has to rule on whether the statements made were untruthful and defamatory based on the evidence before them.

In depth interview leading up to Lindell's upcoming documentary, Scientific Proof. Lindell's got his sh*t together and balls of steel. The really simple thing that can't be disputed, imo, is that Dominion was connected to the internet.
