I couldn’t tell you exactly why, but this picture of my hand I took makes me looks like a Simpson.
A picture of a hand with a cardigan covering part of it; it looks like it only has three fingers because of the cardigan and angle.

Also, my home courts, SDNY’s/EDNY’s cover sheets have a separate field for this specifically because relatedness doesn’t quite fit. Does NDIL have that question?
Cover sheet, with the following question: Has this action, case, or proceeding, or one essentially the same, been previously filed in SDNY at any time?

At least if we take precedent seriously, this is… not a threat.

Yes; it’s unhinged. But it is exactly the kind of speech SCOTUS has consistently said is neither imminent nor threatening. It’s saying someone should do something LATER. You can’t distinguish it from Brandenburg’s “revengence.”
Excerpt of text from Brandenburg, reading: The speech, in full, was as follows: "This is an organizers' meeting. We have had quite a few members here today which are -- we have hundreds, hundreds of members throughout the State of Ohio. I can quote from a newspaper clipping from the Columbus, Ohio, Dispatch, five weeks ago Sunday morning. The Klan has more members in the State of Ohio than does any other organization. We're not a revengent organization, but if our President, our Congress, our Supreme Court, continues to suppress the white, Caucasian race, it's possible that there might have to be some revengeance taken. "We are marching on Congress July the Fourth, four hundred thousand strong. From there, we are dividing into two groups, one group to march on St. Augustine, Florida, the other group to march into Mississippi. Thank you. "

This understates how bananas the citation is.

This citation format suggests ChatGPT published something that was called “What does monkey ass mean?” But following the permalink, there is a kind of low quality screenshot of a chat log, not titled, but with that text in the chat.

OH HEY.

Literally in one of these sanctions decisions, someone saying a paralegal could do the research in responding.

bsky.app/profile/eric...
Excerpt from the linked decision, reading: 8. After a review of the Defendants' submissions of their attorneys' fees, the Court is skeptical that Defendants are entitled to all the fees claimed for each of these four cases. Some time spent by Defendants responding to the Plaintiffs' submissions would have been incurred in these matters whether or not Paul engaged in misrepresentations. Further, some research into Paul's actions could have been conducted by a paralegal or an associate, rather than a partner.

I’ve long thought about making a purpose made account for this. I adore/hate signs with weird things “in quotes.” Something about the words in quotes being an implied slogan just GETS ME.

I’m just going to start a thread, and intermittently add ones I find.

It’s great to get a wonderful decision on a truly dumb SLAPP.

It’s even better when opposing counsel decides to IMMEDIATELY demonstrate an inability to use basic reading comprehension and show why hours on a fee application might be high.

otherwise affirmed, without costs [emphasis added]." "Order, same court and Justice, entered October 20 2023., which, to the extent appealed from, denied third- party defendant Joseph Dempsey's CPLR 3211( g)motion to dismiss Bar Fluid's third-party complaint, unanimously reversed, on the law, with costs, and the motion granted. The Clerk is directed to enter judgment accordingly [emphasis added]."" Accordingly, my motion to disqualify is not moot. See ECF Doc. 308-315. We are requesting to restore my Order to Show Cause to disqualify Mr. Dempsey to the oral argument calendar if he will not resign as counsel to Mr. Sharp. Both are defendants moving forward and the conflict is obvious. Most respectfully, Tom Shanahan Thomas D. Shanahan, P.C. www.shanahanlaw.com Dear Clerk Frey, I am writing in response to the email below. I disagree with Mr. Dempsey's representations to the Court. Mr. Dempsey is misreading the decision and its application. The First Department did not dismiss the counterclaims interposed by Mr. Fluet against Mr. Sharp or the third-party complaint as to Mr. Dempsey. In its decision, the First Deparment reversed, but made very clear only the claims intpeorsed by Bar Fluid LLC dba The Q were dismissed. Mr. Fluet's claims against Mr. Sharp and Mr. Dempsey were not dismissed. Mr. Fluet intends to pursue those claims vigoriously against both. The First Deparment held: "Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Suzann e J. Adams, J.), entered October 20, 2023, which, t o the extent appealed from,denied plaintiffs motio n to dismiss defendants' (Bar Fluid) counterclaims, un animously modified, on the law, to grant dismissal of the abuse of process and defamation counterclaims as violative of the anti-SLAPP law, and otherwise affirmed, without costs [emphasis added]."

I’m going to try to do the same for this follow up hearing. Here’s the dial in if anyone wants it.
Mar 17, 2025 MINUTE ORDER: The Court ORDERS that, in order to accommodate the parties' schedules, the hearing set for today at 4:00 p.m. is VACATED and RESET for 5:00 p.m. The hearing will proceed in-person for the parties and by telephone for members of the public. Toll free number: 833-990- 9400. Meeting ID: 049550816. Any use of the public-access telephone line requires adherence to the general prohibition against photographing, recording, livestreaming, and rebroadcasting of court proceedings including those held by telephone or videoconference), as set out in Standing Order No. 24-31 (JEB). Violation of these prohibitions may result in sanctions, including removal of court-issued media credentials, restricted entry to future hearings, denial of entry to future hearings, or other sanctions deemed necessary by the Court.

Most interesting thing to me here is both Plaintiffs (in their opp) and the Court skipped over the elision DOJ and their witness did here.

The declaration strongly implied they would read a grant as allowing a pause to continue (which is not permitted by the grant/law).

(1/2)
8. I am aware of criminal investigations into many of these activities, but I have been informed that these details are law enforcement sensitive and should not be shared in a public declaration. 9. Despite all of these issues, absent an exception from this court and with confirmation this funding pause based on the terms of the award falls within the court's order, the Department would be required by the court to make payments to fund the housing of aliens in this hotel, and likely fund criminal activity. 10. In addition to the crimes mentioned above, I am concerned that entities receiving payment under this program may be guilty of encouraging or inducing a alien to come to, enter, or… 11. Based on the above-described concerns of illegal activity in connection with the performance of this award, FEMA paused funding for this award. FEMA is required to administer its grant awards so as to ensure that federal funding is expended and associated programs are implemented in full accordance with the U.S. Constitution, applicable federal statutes, and regulations. 2 C.F.R. § 200.300(a). The terms and conditions of the award allow the Department to suspend the grant or terminate the award for a failure to comply with the conditions of the award or applicable federal statutes. See 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.208; 200.340; and 200.339(a). 12. In addition, FEMA is in the process of requesting information from New York City to…

Docket Text: PAPERLESS ORDER denying [146] Plaintiffs' Motion to Enter Final Judgment ("Motion"). The Motion is nonsensical, frivolous, untimely, and moot. Plaintiffs challenge Magistrate Judge Bruce E. Reinhart's Order on October 11, 2024 ("Order"), that directed Plaintiffs "to execute documentation to finalize the Young Settlement Agreement on or before October 11, 2024." ECF No. [128] at 6. Plaintiffs complied with this Order, see ECF No. [147] Ex. A, yet blithely assert that Plaintiff Laura Loomer was "forced under threat of contempt by Magistrate Reinhart to sign an agreement with Defendants that has severely prejudiced her rights." Mot. at 2. If Plaintiffs believed that Magistrate Reinhart "forced" Plaintiffs to engage in actions unwillingly, they could have appealed that Order within fourteen days. See S.D. Fla. Magistrate R. 4(a) ("Any party may appeal from a Magistrate Judge's order determining a motion or matter under subsection 1(c) of these rules, supra, within fourteen (14) days after being served with the Magistrate Judge's order, unless a different time is after being served with the Magistrate Judge's order, unless a different time is prescribed by the Magistrate Judge or District Judge."). They did not. Plaintiffs' asserted yet unsupported belief "that Magistrate Reinhart's order was already a final appealable order" is simply not credible, see Mot. at 2, given that the Eleventh Circuit had already explained to Plaintiffs that they "lack jurisdiction to directly review magistrate judge orders, and an appeal from the magistrate judge's order must first be taken to the district court." See Illoominate Media et al. v. CAIR Florida et al., No. 21-13018 (11th Cir. Nov. 9, 2021) (dismissing a prior appeal in this case). Put simply, Plaintiffs' Motion is moot. Plaintiffs had a chance to, but did not, appeal the Order within fourteen days of receiving it. In any event, Plaintiffs actually complied with and satisfied the Order's terms. See ECF No. [147] Ex. A. The Court also is concerned with Plaintiffs' failure to follow Court rules. Defendants correctlv note that Plaintiffs failed to comolv The Court also is concerned with Plaintiffs' failure to follow Court rules. Defendants correctly note that Plaintiffs failed to comply with the pre-filing conference requirement under Local Rule 7.1(3) when filing the Motion, and that Plaintiffs also failed to include a required certificate of conferral. See ECF No. [147] at 5. Plaintiff Laura Loomer has also filed and signed a motion that appears to be on behalf of both herself and Illoominate Media, Inc. See Mot. at 1-2 ("Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court expeditiously issue a final, appealable order as per the Eleventh Circuit's December 4, 2024 order so that this critical issue may be heard on appeal."). Ms. Loomer should know better. She is not a lawyer admitted before the Court and cannot sign motions on behalf of corporate Plaintiff Illoominate Media, Inc. The Court warns that any further dilatory actions on behalf of Plaintiffs to unnecessarily prolong this litigation will result in sanctions. Signed by Judge Rodolfo A. Ruiz, II on 1/31/2025. (nn00)
