    In his 26-page complaint, he has claimed that an elite group has launched a conspiracy to violate the Constitution. The entire complaint, which is more akin to a manifesto than a formal legal document, is presented in a single paragraph.

    Just let that sink in.

      Small potatoes in this pile of insanity but I don’t think “conspiracy to violate the constitution” is a valid cause of action so I’m guessing this will be summarily dismissed? Lol

      “…The QAnon shaman would also print a one-ounce gold coin, valued at $40 trillion, to pay off the country’s debts.”

      I’d guess he has no case.

      He’s either a fucking moron or trying to drum up publicity for something.

        I’m starting to think the guy that dressed up like a shaman and participated in the insurrection attempt might have a screw loose.

          More like, dressed up and called himself a shaman. I don’t know any shaman that dresses like that. Then again, I also don’t know any shamans…

    Well, I honestly can’t say that’s any more delusional than claiming to be a spiritually attuned being who answers the war cries of the Republican party. I’ve never seen a shaman more in need of a mushroom trip.

      No give him $40 trillion of Trump’s personal money. Heck, pull it back to $40 million, that’s probably about what Trump has grifted off the Presidency.

        He will never have $40 trillion, and he’s got WAY more than $40 million.

        This reminds me of Austin Powers when Dr. Evil demands one billion dollars in the past, and one million in the present.

        Oh, he’s grifted WAY more than that. He entered the presidency in 2016 DEEP in the hole, and emerged in 2020 as a billionaire.

        A few weeks back, I read how Trump’s personal businesses has profited well into the billions in just this current term alone.

        40 Million? Those are amateur numbers, Trump is aiming for GOAT status among grifters.

    Bizarrely, one section in the lawsuit suggests that plots for… James Cameron’s Avatar were plagiarized from his own writing.
