Voter fraud in Coffee County? There were only about 15,000 votes cast in Coffee County in 2020, and Trump received 70% of them. Round numbers, Trump got 10,500 votes, Biden got 4500 votes. How much fraud could there have been?
I developed that line in 2020 despite what many here on FR believe I volunteered to man a phone bank for the Trump campaign, the system dialed the phones and when it rang, if someone answered you were supposed to follow a script which did most of the time unless it was a democrat that answered the phone
They would curse you out, up one side and down the other, before they hung up on me I would ask them, would you like me to remove you from the Trump Christmas card list, they would go ballistic it was great fun
They would financially ruin her even if she beat all the charges.
And therein lies the rub. This is how the Feds win 97% of their cases. They get paid to be in court or sit in their offices, scrolling Facebook or Instagram. The defendant has to pay their lawyer.
I saw a video of a guy that was supposedly representing her. He was taking the prosecution to task for Brady violations. I can say, with 100% certainty, that lawyer isn’t cheap. He stated that he spends most of his time in federal court. That isn’t a place where you’re paying $1000 for the quick divorce.
I read that she pled to 6 misdemeanors, probation, and fined.
At the end of the day, no felonies, probation, small fine and “record expunged” if she complies with the terms of her agreement(whatever that means).
If you’re a defendant and you have a lawyer that charges some serious hourly rates($750 and up, I’m guessing), you better take that deal. Unless you have money to burn, you’d be broke in no time. Exactly how the DOJ and most prosecutors get their wins. Folks don’t have the money to defend themselves.
Unless your someone like Buffet, who spent years fighting the DOJ on tax charges, won the case, and was able to deduct legal expenses from the company’s tax bill. So, it was a win across the board for him.
My reaction as well.
Early Bolsheviks, Nikolay Bukharin, Lev Kamenev, and Aleksey Rykov all pleaded guilty. Our Deep State uses the same methods. Plead guilty although you are innocent because the alternative is draconian. The Deep State could have put Powell away for decades with a jury pool that was guaranteed to convict her of anything. They got what they wanted: a confession of guilt. Stalin also walked away happy just like our modern day Stalinists. The Deep State will never relinquish power. They have nuclear weapons and they will use them if necessary.
Giuliani is non compos mentis.
Sure thing, Troll.
Oh, welcome to FreeRepublic.
What compelled you to find this site and start posting here? Or, have you been here before, zotted, and have now returned?
The Feddies will drive anybody to treason to lynch President Trump.
You don’t know what you are talking about. Powell was a good lawyer before Trump, and is a good one now.
I’ve read her book License to Lie.
Suggest you do the same.
In turn, read a brief or two regarding the 2020 election that bears her signature.
Powell did nothing illegal. $9,000 fine is so low, it is an admission by the prosecution she is not guilty.
Going to trial would cost well over $100,000.
Good lawyers don’t normally plead guilty to crimes and agree to testify against others while likely being disbarred and never being able to practice law again
She pled guilty to “misdemeanors, which can be wiped from her record as a first offender.”
Don’t over-think this one.
What Powell didn’t want was risking her fate to a hostile Fulton County kangaroo-court jury finding her “guilty” of 1 or more felonies, where she’d potentially face jail-time, and be broke at trial’s conclusion. What she got by pleading “guilty” was misdemeanor charges only (easily expunged), a small fine, and agreeing to testify in potential future cases by these prosecutors. Win for Powell.
What the anti-Trump prosecutors wanted was to be able to say one (or more) of Trump’s “co-conspirators” plead guilty already (inference that Trump is too); they wanted to not spend further time prosecuting the Powell case (more time to spend on the Donald); and they didn’t want any disclosure or discovery of facts inconvenient to their prosecution of Trump. Win for the prosecutors.
Powell is not and was never the target. It has always been Trump.
Trump hired her. Then she was fired. A lot of info at the time seemed like he wanted to rehire her but other people talked him out of it.
I was never a fan of Powell. I was hammered for it.
Fulton County prosecutors drop all 7 felony charges against Sidney Powell - in exchange for a misdemeanor plea.
They overcharged and they knew it.
The Fulton County DA lied to the court repeatedly about the law.
They hid exculpatory evidence from the grand jury (violating the prosecutor’s oath to do justice).
And now the felonies vanish on the eve of trial. Totally unjust prosecution.
Good post.
Trump knew early on that Powell was a crazy grifter. It’s why he didn’t hire her or Lin Wood.
When you are in control and the money “our money” is endless you can protect the crime syndicate by picking off the low hanging fruit until you get to the root of the tree. The American people know and now we can see them in action
Nice try.
You go and try to go up against Fedzilla given your current economic resources and come back and tell me how that worked out.
details please! If no real crimes were committed, who can be in more trouble? Questioning the outcome isn't a crime.
