Perhaps you should read her response to the suit, she said everything was fiction and that nobody believed that the machines had anything to do with vote tampering, I lost all respect for her at that moment yesterday, especially since the machine records from CA clearly show votes being split, I'm pissed, but they could destroy her, shes in self defense mode now.
Its amazing how people vehemently defend Powell. Its quite obvious that she's in "oh shit" mode about some of her sensationalist claims and is now downplaying everything. A far cry of how she was phrasing it before as 100% fact and truth. Now she's basically saying "well, it was just my opinion, and I didn't expect the public to immediately believe it" and wanting to dismiss the case.
Previously, she was goading and even daring Dominion to sue her so she could open them up to discovery. Because in order to successfully sue her, Dominion needs to prove in court that her claims were false.
Because we have our low IQ people too, it is not just something the left has. Powell is gullible and her and Lin Wood did huge harm to Trump after the election by filling all kinds of bullshit lawsuits.
Dominion will easily prove many of her claims were false because they are, yes she invited a lawsuit saying multiple times "If my claims were false Dominion would sue me".
Her are Lin Wood as in deep crap, as much I loath Dominion and think all electronic voting should be banned, they have a good case.
Absolutely agree. Her and Lin Wood are now doing the same exact backtracking because they are in deep shit.
I was screaming out warning people about not falling for Powell and Lin Wood back during the Stop The Steal fight, but it seemed like no one wanted to listen. They did severe damage to the legitimacy of our claims and fight by creating a circus and damaging credibility. That's when governors and states thought "this shit is crazy, I can just disregard it and lump it all into nutjob conspiracy theory and not have to let you audit the ballots."
Barnes went into great detail on this, since he was originally helping the Trump legal team and was working with Powell. In the beginning, when all the attention was on the very real, and legitimate mail-in ballot fraud, we were close to getting signature audits in some states because of the pressure. But then Powell went off the rails and cozied up with Lin Wood and started spouting off all the sensationalist claims.
And because of that, it took the spotlight over the boring old mail-in ballot fraud. Why focus on some lame old paper ballots when they are off spouting off about seized servers showing Trump won 410 electoral votes, satellites hacking the machines from the sky, foreign communist infiltrators and gun battles between the CIA and military, etc.
But of course, when I made posts debunking (I hate that word) some of this stuff, I was shouted down as a doomer and shill and "how dare I question Powell, she would never say anything that wasn't 100% true!"
Devil's advocate. Everyone here raced each other to throw her under the bus. If I was in her shoes I would throw y'all under the bus back if it cleared me of the lawsuit I was facing (from trying to protect you!).
Not true at all, the vast majority of this site was riding her nuts and vehemently defending every word she said as 100% truth.
I was one of the very few who were questioning some of it, and warning people that the disinformation and Qanon stuff she was saying was hurting our credibility and would lead to nowhere.
Maybe in her mind, she was trying to help and protect us, I won't question her intentions, I don't think she's a bad person necessarily. But according to people who have known her, she's easily mislead by disinformation. I think her passion took over and she fell for a lot of wild and unvetted claims, then repeated them as if they were facts. Regardless of her intentions, it did do massive damage to the legal battle.
How about this...
“ Dominion must prove Powell's statements about their machines are false. How are going to do this?
An attorney such as Powell with her career and reputation at stake does not make statements if she has no evidence. Clearly, she has massive evidence! How will Dominion refute this evidence?”
I completely agree, I saw 1 vote split into multiple partial votes in CA, the question is WHY did Sydney refute her own statements in front of the judge? The evidence would burn dominion to the ground, so why did she say no one believed the machines switched any votes?
is it possible to get a link to her statements? I've seen a few articles today that show an out of context quote from her motion to dismiss but I haven't see/read a response from her. If she said this, I'm super curious to read it.
I never understood why people put so much trust and faith into Powell, simply because she defended Flynn. People act like she's such a bastion of truth and honesty. I'm not saying she intentionally sensationalized or lied about things....but she was definitely misled.
Barnes, who has known Powell a while, was talking about this months ago....saying she has the traits of someone who is easily prone to disinformation.
And it seemed to happen when she became buddy-buddy with Lin Wood (who is batshit insane) and started feeding her Qanon stuff.
You guys...settle the hell down. Your interpretation is not reality here. First, I am in the case file right now and I don't even see that Powell has filed an answer. All I have is a motion to dismiss with supporting memo.
You can't take this so literally. The legal elements of defamation law are not quite like what we would presume those words mean. I will quote of her supporting memo:
Of particular importance in evaluating the actionability of a statement is whether the underlying facts on which it is based have been disclosed. In NBC Subsidiary, decided the same day as Keohane, the Colorado Supreme Court applied this test in determining that two broadcasts stating that the plaintiff’s living-will package was a “scam,” and that plaintiff’s customers had been “totally taken” were not actionable. 879 P.2d at 7-8. Discussing the United States Supreme Court’s decision in Milkovich, the Colorado Supreme Court noted that the statements were based on facts disclosed during the broadcasts. The Court thus concluded:
[Milkovich] unquestionably excludes from defamation liability not
only statements of rhetorical hyperbole – the type of speech at issue
in the Bressler-Letter Carriers-Falwell cases – but also statements
clearly recognizable as pure opinion because their factual premises
are revealed. Both type of assertions have an identical impact on
readers – neither reasonably appearing factual – and hence are
protected equally under the principles espoused in Milkovich.
Id. at 12 (brackets in original) (citing Phantom Touring, Inc. v. Affiliated Publications, 953 F.2d 724, 731 n.13 (1st Cir. 1992)).
She is not saying that she was just fucking around, full of shit etc. She is saying that under the law, what she said is protected speech. Jesus. The doom is strong in here today.
Plus, she is moving to dismiss because this case is in the DC Circuit. Do you think Powell will get a friendly jury in DC for this case? Hell fucking no. And there is hardly any connection for either party to the DC Circuit, so she has a good argument that if this court won't dismiss the case, it should be moved to Texas, where she is headquartered because the DC Circuit lacks jurisdiction over her. This is a necessary move, both for now and down the road. It is grounds to appeal an adverse decision later, and also grounds to not have a shit jury right now.

How soon we all forget that they did flip votes in the Dominion machines. That was basically proven in Windham NH, Antrim MI & a county I forget the name of in GA. Lots of valid points in this string, but Powell is a Patriot and knows more about the law then all of us combined. Why are Patriots so quick to judge their own sometimes?

That’s not what she said.
You completely misunderstood the filing. Many others did as well. But mostly because they only see what they want to see.
is it possible to get a link to her statements? I've seen a few articles today that show an out of context quote from her motion to dismiss but I haven't see/read a response from her. If she said this, I'm super curious to read it.
The previous posts and slanted media bias are completely misguided. Lengthy, but persuasive.
DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS
Not what she said.
Fuck off idiot
Riiight. Because Sidney Powell has been such a legal powerhouse. She's nearly as batshit crazy as Lin Wood (and that's saying something).
I never understood why people put so much trust and faith into Powell, simply because she defended Flynn. People act like she's such a bastion of truth and honesty. I'm not saying she intentionally sensationalized or lied about things....but she was definitely misled.

Was the EXACT SAME SHIT with Orly Taitz during the Obama birth cert brouhaha.

Thanks -- everyone else, read this again... Legal games are 4D and have many early events that enable later motions
Everyone, read this.
“ Dominion must prove Powell's statements about their machines are false. How are going to do this? An attorney such as Powell with her career and reputation at stake does not make statements if she has no evidence. Clearly, she has massive evidence! How will Dominion refute this evidence?”
Dominion will be destroyed legally.
If she gets close to getting this info in front of a judge, someone will have an accident.
That would be AWESOME
You predict, or you wish?
Sid fucked up by half assing her checked stats.
Please be correct...
Wishful thinking. The judicial system is corrupt
How soon we all forget that they did flip votes in the Dominion machines. That was basically proven in Windham NH, Antrim MI & a county I forget the name of in GA. Lots of valid points in this string, but Powell is a Patriot and knows more about the law then all of us combined. Why are Patriots so quick to judge their own sometimes?
Those aren’t patriots, those are bots.
I predict anyone that believe this cuck (aka Powell) is too ignorant to make posts like this.
