    Interesting thing about this one: one of the law firms (quinn emanuel) representing the dude is actually historically Elon’s & Trump’s lawyers. Like, when you think slimy American corporate lawyers, you’re thinking of these guys. It was weird as hell that they signed on to this case; though they had done that once recently to roll a backdoor deal with Trump to keep “their” client from winning a lawsuit outright. I’d kinda assumed this was happening again, but they have been pretty on top of shit.

    I gotta wonder if the whole “billion dollars in pro bono” work thing made them realize the money faucet was being turned off. Or, Trump et al stiffed them, as they are known to do, and so the firm is out for blood.
