Just remember that Trump started lying and providing alternative facts that didn't accord with reality starting on Day One of his presidency persistently lying about the size of his inaugural crowd.  And it never stopped.  Lies until the last day.

Levying explosive claims of widespread voter fraud specifically tied to Dominion Voting Systems and potentially a pay-for-play scheme with GOP Gov. Brian Kemp, Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell vowed to deliver a "biblical" voter fraud case this week.

"We've got tons of evidence; it's so much, it's hard to pull it all together," Powell told Saturday night's "The Count" co-hosted by Rob Schmitt and Mark Halperin, teasing the explosive allegation of the Georgia governor in a contested and key battleground state.

Woe, indeed, Kid, that you bother posting this bullshit.

"It's so much, it's hard to pull it all together" has to be the lamest excuse for a tardy suit I have heard since "my dog ate it."

The claim that it is a key battleground state is also a bit of a stretch at this point.

Here's the link for those wanting more than the unsourced snippet:
https://www.newsmax.com/newsmax-tv/sidney-powell-campaign-lawyer-dominion/2020/11/21/id/998181/

And here is what bias checkers say about Newsmax that explains why Sidney went to them with her "biblical" news:
Overall, we rate Newsmax Right Biased and Questionable based on the promotion of conspiracy theories and pseudoscience as well as numerous failed fact checks.
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/newsmax/

Ad Fontes Media rates Newsmax as hyper-partisan right in terms of bias and as somewhat unreliable in terms of reliability.

Newsmax is more reliable than OANN (though not much) and less reliable than Mother Jones. They are also less biased than OANN and about as biased as Mother Jones.

But in this case, I am pretty confident that the claim that Sidney said that was all true. It's Sidney who is biased and unreliable, which is why she had to go to somebody like Newsmax to get the interview. Fox wouldn't have her, probably.

Nah, he started lying etc well before that.

"Hopefully this week we will get it ready to file, and it will be biblical."

"It's a massive project to pull this fraud claim together with the evidence that I want to put in," she added.

"You name the manner of fraud and it occurred in Georgia."

Among the most explosive claims alluded to by Powell were:


Joe Biden votes being "weighted" at 1.25 times and President Donald Trump votes being parsed at 3/4.
Algorithms that gave Democrats 35,000 extra votes.
Modifications made to voting machines after statutory cutoff dates for changes.
Past election victories, including Hillary Clinton's primary victory over Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., being forced decided by Dominion Voting Systems.
Alleged pay-for-play kick backs to public officials, potentially even Georgia GOP Gov. Kemp for a late grant to use Dominion Voting Systems.

Whoa is right!

Judge: And why are you filing this lawsuit now?

Litigants: Your honor, we only realized it was unconstitutional after we lost and everything else that President Trump tried was defeated. Up until then, we thought it was constitutional.

And even though, I, Mike Kelly was on that ballot...

This is the bill they are 8 months later claiming doesn't fly:
https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/Legis/LI/uconsCheck.cfm?txtType=HTM&yr=2020&sessInd=0&smthLwInd=0&act=12

There is nothing in the PA Constitution to gainsay it - indeed, the elections section of the constitution references the law that is being amended.


Oh, this was a prior bill that put in some of the definitions on mail-in voting, which probably is the one they really ought to be after, except that it, too, is only modifying a law the PA Constitution cites:

I can't see, why Trump won't see, that the crowd at his Inauguration was less than the crowd at Obama's ...when the photos and videos show it very clearly.
I can't see why he says that his crowd was larger.
Does he think the population is stoopid?
It's very childish..."my crowd was bigger than your crowd."

It’s quite biblical as the GOP has revealed that it’s adherents and followers are behaving in ways typical of those famous hotspots Soddom and Gomorrah. Don’t lend any republicans money. They won’t be around long enough to repay it before they meet their biblical end.

If trump won’t leave the White House, chuck him off the balcony and let gravity render its impartial judgement on him.

Cognitive bias, Bambi.

It's kind of like why you struggle with your view of Trump, in general, despite the glaring nature of his failures, or your issues with the climate crisis in which, even when you can see that the guy you put faith in has admitted he was wrong THIS way, you cannot see that he might be wrong in his retrenching.

You cling to what you believe despite all the evidence to the contrary, denying that the evidence demonstrates what 95% of climate scientists say it does.

Cognitive bias, combined with Dunning-Kruger.

Nah, there are laws today against that sort of thing.
What he needs is counselling, a calming voice of reason to soothe his "rejected" soul.

Loeffler campaign says Georgia senator's Covid re-test was negative but she will undergo further testing.

I can't imagine this is helping her campaign, even if it won't hurt it as much as it should.

(And that assumes that they are telling the truth about that retest's being negative.)
