Throw her dumb ass in jail anyway. The DNC set her ass up to screw over Americans and make our voter fraud allegation, WHICH DID OCCUR, look stupid.

You nailed it. I agree 100%. She was a tool used by the ‘RATS to make all allegations that the election was stolen look foolish. Her and that other fool, Rudy Giuliani.

Don’t have to be on the left to see that she is either incompetent, or not credible or both.

She’s in trouble with this suit. And the Smartmatic suit against Rudy is going to be a problem too.

To make is simple, the hinge of the argument is the court challenge. Reasonable people do not treat things as fact prior to the challenge, but would consider it fact after the evidence is presented in the court challenge. That is the part that the critics here seem to be missing.

It was evident that she was not to be taken seriously.

Lawyers cause that keep the case going until they run out of money the D.C. hacks played that gig for years.

No, I did not say that... But you just misrepresented what I said, exactly the intelligent deceptive distortion that I was talking about, which IS a type of lying.

I don’t know if she is a liar or not... But I know you are.

Howard Kleinhendler, Powell’s attorney, lays it out pretty well at her website in an official statement concerning the motion to dismiss.

He listed his phone number..too bad Jacob didn’t call him before he wrote this hit piece.

I think she’s looking forward to actually getting in court.

Mocking you by pretending that she and all her worshippers (you) are kraken up is not lying.

It is simply a manner of pointing out how damned silly otherwise reasonable people can be.

You mischaracterize what people say, what I call intelligent deceptive distortion. That’s lying, and the intelligence required required to pull it off indicates malicious intent.

Intelligent deceptive distortion?

Sounds like a happier name for a well-polished fib.

Yet here you are making excuses for another's 'Outlandish Election Conspiracy Theory.'

And throwing around the word 'liar' with a certain ease of practice too.

“I think these people were out there to deliberately sabotage Trump.”

When Lin Wood said to sit out the Georgia Runoffs (to ‘teach the GOP a lesson’ by letting the Dems win without having to cheat), even with Trump saying just the opposite, telling people to VOTE in Georgia, that’s when I knew our side was infiltrated.

When people on our side started defending and agreeing with Lin Wood (and thereby implying Trump was an idiot), that’s when I updated my passport. The country is FINISHED, time to find a new one.

Enjoy the downhill ride, boys, you’ll have to do it without me here!

You are completely missing the point. Powell is throwing their own words back at them. She is using their own words to beat them. “Hey, you guys said my claims are wild and incredible, so how can that be slander if nobody believed them?”

She made serious and true claims with evidence that the courts refused to admit. She never had a chance to make her case. Now that she is being sued unfairly, she is simply throwing their own words back in their face and spinning it as a defense.

She is brilliant. You are wrong to think she is making an admission that she lied or made up the accusations. She did not.

Maybe you can post an excert from one of her briefs that you feel illustrates clearly and without doubt “she was not to be taken seriously” because I don’t believe it.
