Really striking that, five years later, Mike Lindell is facing some accountability for his 2020 lies -- and meanwhile other Trump allies are ginning up the 239,000th bullshit claim about that election.

Yeah, the jury was kind.

But even at only $2M, I suspect Mr Lindell may be facing some issues.

The judgment aside, let me ask a question ...

Why do so many of Pres Trump's most avid supporters seem to wind up on the wrong side of the law?

Does this ~inner circle~ of Pres Trump date back to his days in NYC?

OK, speaking of the "inner circle" of Pres trump, there seems to be fmr Mayor Giuliani.

In a random search engine query, I found this ....

... New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, right, dressed in drag as a role in "Victor/Victoria," sings with Julie Andrews at the New York Hilton Saturday, March 1, 1997, during an event presented by the Inner Circle. The Inner Circle dinner, a $400-a-plate, black-tie affair, is where the city's journalists satirize city, state and national politics.

Giuliani's act, entitled "Rudy Rudia," was a rebuttal to the Inner Circle's play entitled Citizen Pain, a political satire written and performed by New York City journalists. This year was the show's 75th anniversary. (AP Photo/Joe DeMaria) ...

Wow.
