Sidney Powell may have pleaded guilty to interfering in the 2020 presidential election, but she still seems to think President Joe Biden’s victory was illegitimate.
On her social media accounts, Powell has continued to push claims that the 2020 election was rigged and that prosecutors in Georgia who brought the criminal case against her are politically motivated. The newsletter published by her dark money group has shared articles arguing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis “extorted” her guilty plea.
So show evidence.
You can’t. You just keep talking hoping Tangerine Scream will bail you out.
He won’t. He can’t.
Give up.
This does not surprise me at all, tbh
She really needs mental health assistance.
No she doesn’t. She knows what she’s doing. They’re all hoping Trump or a Republican wins in 2024 so that they get off the hook.
She’s going to end up doing time.
I, too, like to immediately violate the likely terms of plea deals keeping me out of prison in exchange for cult clout!
Not just clout, money. Grifters gotta grift.
True.
Only the best lawyers.
MAGA = Making Attorneys Get Attorneys
This made me laugh a lot. Thank you!
She seems to have a lot of faith in the conservative media bubble, playing this both ways to different audiences.
She’s probably right. Misinformation certainly works for them.
Gonna be hard when she is in a court room and actually has to tell the truth.
That’s kind of what I was getting at. Tell the court the actual truth that’s corroborated by the evidence (hell, and PLEAD GUILTY), then tell the base whatever random shit they want to believe.
That’s what they all do, even Trump.
Do you think the average maganaut spends more time on Facebook or C-SPAN?
There had better be repercussions. I personally couldn’t get away with disrespecting the court like that, why should she?
Has she been sentenced yet?
She accepted a plea
They can always rescind the plea deal if they don’t think she has been truthful or if she continues to commit crimes. There are terms that she agreed to when she was given her plea deal and if she breaks them they will wreck her in court.
I feel like publicly announcing she felt coerced would automatically recind the deal, but maybe this falls under the freedom of speech to lie all you want to the people as long as you aren’t under oath that Trump was trying to argue.
Supreme Court doesn’t consider the sentence to be coercion. See the Alford case, were Alford was facing death. She didn’t make an Alford plea, but feeling coerced by the sentence is acceptable.
You either lied under oath or you are obviously grifting here. Give it up, you oatmeal with a wig on
That’s not going to play out well for her. LMFAO
When I told my partner about this, I qualified it by saying how excited I am for the repercussions.
Don’t hold your breath. She is a republican.
On Monday, she asked her followers to watch “Police State,” a new movie from conservative activist Dinesh D’Souza, which argues that law enforcement is biased against former President Donald Trump, who currently faces four pending criminal cases.
(D’Souza himself had previously pleaded guilty to making an illegal campaign contribution and was pardoned by Trump.)
What a fucking joke, to have this guy who was pardoned say that other people are the ones who are biased.
How can the GOP be the “party of law and order” when all of them have been convicted of felonies? Not just convicted, but often pleading guilty. Saying under oath in court that they are guilty of felonies.
To be fair, pleading guilty to a crime means all of jack and shit considering how everyone who is arrested is threatened or blackmailed into accepting plea deals regardless of guilt.
I suspect the MAGA crowd is exploiting the hatred of the police the left very rightly has, and we’ll see a shift in anti-police sentiment as MAGA adopts a Fuck The Police stance and the left in the most blatantly hypocritical 180 on stances they’ve done since covid, openly start bootlicking just to spite the right.
Or maybe we’ll start having some common ground, can finally come together to overthrow them, and then kill each other afterwards.
“Law and order” is and always as been an euphemism for “round up the minorities”
And the poor.
The very definition of a dog whistle
But they’ve been pardoned so it didn’t happen! Just as Jesus did, so can trump absolve anyone of their sins.
Imagine the absolute apocalyptic shit-fit the trumpers would have if Biden pardoned a bunch of crooks and cronies like Manafort, Stone, Kushner senior etc. x 100
Pardoning a bunch of tax frauds, while RAISING taxes on common folks and cutting them massively for corporations—and their broke, inbred base cheers. So much for draining the fucking swamp. God DAMN these people are as fucking stupid as they are vile.
I can’t even tell you how many blue collar people I heard happily taking their higher taxes on the chin. “I don’t like it but I’ll do my part”
They’re the same as the 50s crowd that would sooner close the community pool, and fill it with cement, than let black people swim in it one day a week.
Their capacity to withstand any pain - as long as it causes another group even greater hardship - is as awe-inspiring as it is stupid, self defeating and cruel.
Id rather have that endurance in my allies, not my opposition, is what I’m getting at. I vehemently disagree with the sexism, racism and social regression coming from the right.
I think a lot of people on the right acknowledge our societies broken but conflate the cause. Punching down instead of punching up. Hopefully we can shine enough light on the issue, that economics and politics 100% can not be separated, that lassaiz-faire and deregulation are just euphemisms for the looting our institutions and the hopes and dreams the working classes have for themselves and their children.
Thats the bridge over the gap. Everyone hates corporations. Everyone.
D’Souza should go to prison.
Law enforcement is indeed biased against those who break laws. Is this an admission of guilt?
I hope she continues to fuck around. I don’t think she’s had nearly enough “find out” yet.

Throw this magoo into prison.
When she gets to court she’ll have to give testimony consistent with the sworn statement she must have given to prosecutors as a part of the deal she got. If she contradicts it in her testimony in actual court, perjury, and indeed jail. So either she gives her damming testimony against trump accurately, or perjures herself and goes to jail, win win.
She can lie all she wants in social media, but if she tries to pull this in court, yeah it’ll be jail.
They should all be in prison though.
I do wonder if the defense can cross using her many countering media statements after pleading, to insert doubt in the jury.
Seems like a smart play on her part, if she can’t be punished for public statements. She can honor the letter of the plea, but provide a mountain of countering public statements.
Would be easy for the prosecutor to counter though. All they would have to ask if the defense brought them up would be “Were those statements you made in public truthful?” If she lies and says yes, they have a sworn statement from her to the contrary already, so perjury, in addition to plea deal being off for not testifying truthfully. I can’t imagine prosecutors accepted a plea deal without a sworn statement with some sort of information valuable to the case including her admitting her role. I think the only smart play for her would be to slink into the shadows, testify truthfully when the trial comes, and distance herself from the whole debacle feeling lucky she got out with no jail time.
Unsure. The MAGA players are true believers, and all of right-wing media will be pushing jury nullification by the time of the actual trial. Even if she follows the letter of the plea agreement, the introduction of countering statements by the defense could be enough to convince a nutty juror with nullification beaten into their head by Hannity and Facebook to pull the trigger in the jury room.
To be clear, she did not make an Alford plea that the judge would’ve likely rejected. She was over a barrel and plead guilty and now wants everyone to ignore that.
If by “over the barrel” you mean there was overwhelming evidence against her that would’ve resulted in a trial going very poorly for her, yes. She was over a barrel and I love that for all the defendants.
Yeah, that sums up the phrase.
It’s like a thought with another thought’s hat on.
They should pull any plea deal with her and just wreck her in court
Not if that helps Trump and his higher-level conspirators. Their convictions are the most important.
She wouldn’t have pled out if she didn’t think she was gonna lose at trial. This is going to be catastrophic for trumpworld.
