Judge tosses Roy Moore's $95M lawsuit against Sacha Baron Cohen

Before we discuss Roy Moore's most recent ignominious defeat, let's recap just a few of the conservative hero's string of disgraceful failures:

Today, Moore has racked up another loss: his $95M lawsuit against comedian Sacha Baron Cohen.

From Esquire:

The Showtime series episode featured Cohen in the role of an Israeli Anti-Terrorism Expert named General Erran Morad. Interviewing Moore, the character claimed to have a pedophile detector, which subsequently went off as it got closer to Moore. In response, Moore sued Cohen.

The suit was filed way back in 2018, lingering for years, largely due to clerical issues. Moore sued for $95 million in damages, but ultimately, the suit was thrown out this week after U.S. District Court Judge John Cronan ruled that the consent agreement Moore signed before appearing on the series held up in a court of law.

What's next for this Trump-loving loser?
