This trial was a joke and did not follow our criminal justice's normal practices. Those grieving parents were deprived of actual justice.

We all reviewed the trial perpetually mortified as the judge turned the trial into a joke. Then, everyone openly celebrated it like it was a good thing:

My bad...I think that link was the wrong time this happened....for Bannon. It seems to be a repeated pattern. I'll have to keep digging, as it seems most reporting of it was delisted and replaced with a flood of repeating that "Jones refuses to defend himself," the inaccurate talking point that hopes to hide these early failures of the court.

For instance?

The crazy discovery, the banned defense and banned things to mention. The pretending him personally, companies he is associated with, companies he owns fully or partiality, and his media personalities are all one in the same. Removing any testing of Journalistic Constitutional protections. Basic removing a fair playing field, which seems to be a disparaging one-sided trend.

The crazy discovery, the banned defense and banned things to mention.

But when you say "banned defense" you're not talking about the default judgement?

So what was banned, and what things to mention were banned?

And what was crazy about the discovery? (Except that Jones ignored it).

I was down with covid for a week and lost track of where we were with this, sorry.

The discovery demanded info from companies and entities not involved with the lawsuit or accusations.
