NOW: Sidney Powell on Judge Brann's ruling, speaking on @Newsmax: "This particular judge was appointed by President Obama, we really don't expect to win a lot of the district court cases but ultimately the Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court will have to get it right."
More Powell: "We haven't even begun to present the big fraud case yet that I'm still working on, and it's going to be a blockbuster."
Powell is now claiming that Democrats somehow added 35,000 votes to every Democratic candidate's vote total in every state.
Sidney Powell is now on Newsmax alleging that "thousands" of people participated in a conspiracy that has been going on for decades.
Powell: "Georgia is probably going to be the first state I'm going to blow up and, and Mr Kemp and the Secretary of State need to go with it."
Powell now accusing Kemp and Raffensperger of receiving financial benefits in exchange for using Dominion voting machines. Newsmax host asks her to clarify, she says: "We have certainly been told that there is evidence of that."
Newsmax host to Powell: "Everything you're alleging, frankly, is nuts..."
Powell now telling Newsmax that Bernie Sanders actually won the Democratic primary in 2016 but the machines were rigged to give Hillary Clinton the win, says Sanders knows but he was paid off to keep quiet.
Interview over. That was insane.

NEW: The @TeamTrump lawsuit against the PA Sec’y of State — argued by Rudy Giuliani last week — has been DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE, meaning the campaign can’t refile.
NOW: @realDonaldTrump is talking about executive actions which purport to lower prescription drug prices.
I think what he's trying to say is that the order will require discounts to go to consumers (he says people) as opposed to "middlemen" (who are also presumably people)
Trump now touting bizarre "most favored nation" rule that sets drug prices based on prices negotiated by other countries' single-payer systems. The US can't negotiate because the legislation creating Medicare Part D specifically banned it.
NOW: @PressSec opens her first briefing in some time by bragging about COVID vaccines (not available yet) and attacking Democrats for impeaching @realDonaldTrump last year.
Fox is the only major cable network carrying the briefing (though @cspan has a few channels running it)
.@kevincorke asks about the campaign's strategy for overturning the election. @PressSec, who has been moonlighting as a campaign spox, refers it to campaign but adds that "the President's been very clear he wants every legal vote to be counted," etc.
NEW: The verdict on the yesterday's @TeamTrump press conference is in from a jury of Trumpworlders, former @RudyGiuliani confidantes, actual lawyers, and White House officials, one of whom called the performance "an absolute shitshow." independent.co.uk/voices/rudy-gi…
.@DelPercioS, who was Rudy's Deputy Commissioner for Finance and Administration, said it is "so saddening to see that this is who he is now because it’s nothing like he was.” independent.co.uk/voices/rudy-gi…
NEW: @realDonaldTrump's latest executive order could let him cripple a @JoeBiden administration by firing countless government experts such as Dr. Anthony Fauci on his way out the door and leaving behind a corps of loyalists to sabotage things, experts say independent.co.uk/voices/trump-e…
The order could strip civil service protections from a broad swath of career civil servants who work in “confidential, policy-determining, policy-making, or policy-advocating positions” as soon as January 19, a day before the next President is inaugurated. independent.co.uk/voices/trump-e…
“It's a two-pronged attack — a Hail Mary pass to enable them to do some burrowing in if they lose the election,” ex-government ethics boss @WaltShaub said. independent.co.uk/voices/trump-e…
