The Judge catches on to the fact that the plaintiffs obviously know these cases aren't actually winnable, which means they are bringing them just to make the accusations without proving them to fool people into thinking they are legitimate.
It’s not just that Powell is losing these cases, but they are being lost in such overwhelming fashion. Judges can toss it out for any of these reasons, but they are citing every reason available (mootness, lack of standing, lateness, no realistic remedy, lack of merit etc).

I keep getting this response from some people. I’m just pointing out conspiracies are increasingly common. As for level, a few months ago a ton of elected Dems, media outlets, and pundits coordinated to promote a baseless conspiracy that Trump was using USPS to steal the election
There were exactly 0 precincts in MI with 100% or over 100% turnout. This is an easily verifiable fact as the precinct data is available by County. The guy testifying did this repeatedly. He pretended to be giving intelligent data while saying things that are clearly false.
If someone is willing to lie to you about something that is that easy to verify, why would you pay attention to anything else that they say?
Here was another great one from this “expert”. He pretends to do this complicated analysis showing that machines couldn’t possibly count as many ballots as were reported over a short time relying on audience not knowing those counties reported absentee ballots in batches.
Hilarious. My mentions kept telling me to tune in to the MI Rudy hearing because they had an expert proving the conspiracy. I tune in and some guy BSing with several conspiracies about Dominion that sound super intelligent if you know nothing about the actual topic (40M etc,)
so then one Rep intelligently asks the obvious question: wouldn't a hand recount prove whether the software change ballots?
So OF COURSE, the "expert" then suggested a new conspiracy that they cd have also put in fake paper ballots to match the software change.
Just watch this video of one of the main witnesses at the MI Guliani hearing hysterically ranting about complete nonsense as a Republican legislator tries to ask her a question:
Omg. Powell asked the court in her WISCONSIN lawsuit to get her security camera footage from the location where they processed Detroit (Michigan) ballots. #HeadDesk
1) I think Roberts has taken a bit of unfair beating on Twitter. He seems to agree with the majority that Cuomo likely violated 1st amendment and temporary relief would be appropriate but argues it's moot since Cuomo already changed his restrictions.
The other conservatives on the bench argue they needed to take action now anyway because there is the constant threat that Cuomo could reimpose the restrictions and they shouldn't have to come back to stop him. That's not a substantive disagreement on whether Cuomo was wrong.
