Everything Trump touches turns to LULZ.

Please don't put in the newspaper that I got poor.

KA-CHING.

And with every day that passes, the number just gets bigger and bigger.

And she name checks your favorite legal blog (not really, but you know).

Is it possible that Trump can get away with his shenanigans? (Legally speaking, of course.)

A tale as old as time: No one made the bad decision that landed the Trumps in court!

This has taken a turn for the worse.

A+ lawyering there.

* Leonard Leo had Kellyanne Conway funnel tens of thousands of dollars from a non-profit to Ginni Thomas without a paper trail and with the explicit direction “No mention of Ginni, of course.” Totally normal and above-board thing to do! [Washington Post]

* Ed Sheeran prevailed in his copyright case as sharing chord progressions don’t make songs similar. [Law360]

* If a whistle blows in the woods and the bank can retaliate without repercussion, does it make a sound? The Supreme Court seems hopeful that the answer is no. [Bloomberg Law News]

* Ivanka Trump targeted by NYAG over discovery obligations with investigators leery of “why her volume of emails dropped from 1,200 per month in 2014 to 37 in 2016.” Yes, what could have happened in 2016 that inspired some urgency to curtail the digital paper trail? [Huffington Post]

* Google and Sonos head to trial in patent dispute over smart devices. Hey, Alexa? Why are you laughing? [Reuters]

* Biglaw financials are strong… so of course everyone’s talking about layoffs because America is going to gaslight itself into a recession one way or another. [American Lawyer]

* Court issues more sanctions over false voter fraud claims, tagging Arizona gubernatorial loser Kari Lake. Which probably makes her the front-runner for Trump’s running mate. [The Hill]

They should fight their battles in a court of law instead of this absurdity.

Who could have seen that one coming?

Frivolous Around And Find Out.

Surely Trump and his esteemed counsel will rethink the wisdom of this whole exercise. What with their sterling judgment and unparalleled command of the rules of civil procedure.

This is the dumbest Trump lawsuit yet. How will he manage to top it? (He will manage.)

Meditations on Chris Kise.

Go back to CivPro, bro.

That's gotta be some kind of a record, right?

The Lord works in mysterious ways. And so does the judicial wheel.

Maybe shit-talking the judge online is, like, not great legal strategery?
