Sidney Powell, now infamously associated with the slogan “release the Kraken,” admits in court filings that there never was any evidence for the GOP’s Dominion election fraud conspiracy (and no Kraken to release).
Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit against Powell in January. Today, she argues that the case should be dropped because no one *really* believed her claims.
Powell’s Dominion conspiracy was broadcast on national television. It was supported by Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Lindell, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley–the list of Republicans who backed her claims is longer than the list of Republicans who didn’t.
“Dominion” is probably the most significant reason that 65 percent of Republicans believe Donald Trump won the 2020 election. But if you believed her, Powell’s lawyers say, then you’re the problem. trumpfile.org/sidney-powell-…

During the impeachment hearings, @RepGwenMoore identified three threats we faced by keeping Trump in office for two more weeks:
1) He could declassify state secrets 2) He could sell state secrets to our enemies 3) He could pardon the insurrectionists
"It was really obvious from the beginning that this was a coordinated plot, and the absence of any early intervention was real clear indication that there was support at very high levels of our administration... Maybe even Individual One." - @RepGwenMoore
Ron DeSantis has actively covered up Florida’s COVID-19 numbers and sent law enforcement after someone who didn't. Most recently, he banned critical race theory from public schools, opting for a whitewashed education curriculum.
Ted Cruz recently fled the country to escape a crisis in Texas, the state he represents, and then he blamed his daughter. He is a favorite of the Parler dark money donor family, the Mercers. Seems super fit to be president someday.

2. In 2006, Russia passed a law giving Vladimir Putin the authority to send death squads to take out any foreign citizen he considers a disturbance. The law came up in my research on Russia's response to Biden's "killer" comment. trumpfile.org/russia-passes-…
