Dominion Voting Systems brings $1.3 billion defamation suit against Sidney Powell

Dominion Voting Systems on Friday brought a $1.3 billion defamation suit against the conservative lawyer Sidney Powell, alleging that her false and outlandish claims about fraud in the 2020 election “caused unprecedented harm.”

The suit is the first salvo in what is expected to be a flurry of high-priced litigation against prominent conspiracy theorists and right wing media organizations that have spread baseless falsehoods about President Donald Trump’s defeat in November’s election.

It comes as the nation continues to reckon with the aftermath of Wednesday’s deadly insurrection in Washington in which a mob of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol.

Why would they have standing? The accusations have not been addressed to Dominion, but to those who abuse their product.

This is probably a stupid statement but; A billion dollar suit will be in the courts for decades. During that time, there is an active case questioning the validity of the Dominion Voting Machines. Perhaps this could be used as an ongoing argument to prevent their use?

I’m curious if anybody has seen this thing with Maria Zack concerning an affidavit allegedly delivered yesterday to Meadows, Kemp concerning Dominion, Italy, and Frankfurt shenanigans?

Would be nice if Sidney Powell had the money to mount a good defense, subpeona internal Dominion documents and the information others , such as the Italian courts, have uncovered. Would be an interesting historic document. suspect dominion would drop its suit. Then Powell could counter sue.

I think we should sue Dominion. There are 74 million people who were deprived of our vote. That’s worth at least a million for each of us.

There is some crazy stuff being posted here and elsewhere.

I would ask a simple question.....

IF a person just admitted in an Italian court (an open process) and wrote an affidavit stating that he altered the US election results do you not think that would be in the Italian media instead of on a bunch of websites and forums in the US?

There are two copies of the “affidavit” out there as well and one of them says nothing about the US election although the top and bottom of it appears the same. The news stories in Italy mention nothing about the US election although they reference the case as a “scandal.”

Nobody of “substance” such as one of Trump’s attorneys or even Trump himself has said anything about it.

I am inclined to say that this is false. People are putting out a lot of crazy stuff out there (especially Wood and Powell) and all of us (me too) need to practice discernment and seek verification on stories that seem “too good to be true.”

I saw it
The problem was no verifiable proof The copy of so called affidavit had no information to verify and was in English.
Why if it is us supposedly filed in an Italian court

I know there was fraud. Just si far no real proof

Now that the left has total control of the courts, the government and the media, Sidney may be in deep, deep trouble.

I wish there had been a Kraken.

Pray for Sidney.

Why not sue. Does anyone think that the legal system will give Sydney a fair hearing?

Ok, I’m probably grasping at straws, frustrated beyond belief that the US now appears to be a failed state.
