He filed in the same court he had to file in last time. It's a matter of correct jurisdiction, not judge shopping. ancianita Friday #33
Why was this one filed in the Middle District? sl8 Friday #49
I don't know, all the more puzzling that he filed it in the same middle district he filed against the NYT last year. ancianita Friday #51

Predictable. When trump appeals he'll get the same SCOTUS ruling he got in his 2024 suit. ancianita Friday #24
