The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

" There is a notable filing this week in Los Angeles where Hunter Biden is seeking to dismiss one of his many lawsuits against individuals associated with disclosing or discussing the contents of his infamous laptop. While Hunter spent years suggesting that the laptop images and emails might be Russian disinformation (with the help of obliging mainstream media), the contents were found to be authentic by courts and agencies. In seeking to drop his lawsuit against an ex-White House aide, Garrett Ziegler, Biden claims to be, again, in financial ruin.

What is notable is not just the underlying claims of economic distress but who filed them. The attorney, Bryan M. Sullivan, a partner at Early Sullivan Wright Gizer & McRae LLP, previously threatened me and others with lawsuits for writing on the scandal in relation to support that Hunter received from lawyer Kevin Morris (who appeared to be both his financial backer and his lawyer).

Years ago, I wrote about how the Biden team had decided to use a scorched earth strategy to target critics. Various people, including myself, were threatened with lawsuits—actions that could drain the targets of hundreds of thousands of dollars and tie them up in court for years.

In my case, I received a letter from Sullivan that I could face a defamation action if I do not retract (or if I repeat) my criticism of Morris’s representational relationship with Hunter. I responded by immediately revealing the contents of his letter and repeating those allegations. Sullivan and Morris never sued."
