Not wanting to chance having to deal with maniacal Florida MAGA federal Judge Aileen Cannon again, Newsmax on Friday went judge shopping in Wisconsin instead, re-filing their cable provider collusion lawsuit against their larger competitor in the right wing TV propaganda space.
Newsmax on Thursday voluntarily withdrew the case from Cannon’s south Florida federal courtroom after she had dismissed it on who the hell knows what grounds she made up or, less likely, were actual real grounds. She had offered them a chance to refile and they did… in Wisconsin.
In related news about an unrelated case, Cannon lost her patience with would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh, representing himself, after about 10 minutes of a rambling opening statement on Thursday. “You don’t have unlimited license to go forward and make a mockery of the dignity of this courtroom,” Cannon told Routh with a straight face as she sentenced irony to death posthumously.
