I think we should be super cautious about this. I know we'd like to think that the President's own legal counsel would make absolutely sure that the info they have is good before publicly claiming it. But not only is this as much a PR game as anything else, but I think a lot of figures in Trump's orbit haven't been so cautious, and it's come back to bite them.
For one, Powell seems to have already promoted the conspiracy about "Hammer" and "Scorecord," which I think most people are now skeptical of.
Above all, I think members of the Trump team, along with OANN and others, seem to still be banking on the information first presented in this post being true, while a number of people — here and elsewhere — have now raised serious concerns about it. (And I'm thinking this is still what Powell's claim about "millions of votes being turned" is premised on.)
Similarly, Louie Gohmert's claims about Scytl being raided — which somehow became conflated with Dominion — don't seem to have panned out, either.
It's hard to know how this specific one will eventually play out; so by all means feel free to come back in a week or so and downvote me if it turns out I was overly cautious. But for now, I think we should be prepared to find out that these Dominion whistleblowers mentioned by Powell actually don't know the faintest thing about millions of votes being switched. Perhaps, like Richard Hopkins from USPS, they have one tiny piece of a puzzle that they caught a glimpse of, but then this is being exaggerated and misrepresented — and conflated with other, dubious claims.
