WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A U.S. judge on Wednesday sanctioned Sidney Powell and other lawyers who sued in Michigan to overturn Democratic President Joe Biden's election victory over Donald Trump, and suggested they might deserve to lose their law licenses.
In a highly anticipated written ruling, U.S. District Judge Linda Parker in Detroit said the pro-Trump lawyers, including Powell and prominent litigator Lin Wood, should have investigated the Republican former president's voter fraud claims more carefully before filing what Parker called a "frivolous" lawsuit.
Parker, who dismissed the Michigan suit last December, formally requested that disciplinary bodies investigate whether the pro-Trump lawyers should have their law licenses revoked. The judge also ordered the lawyers to attend classes on the ethical and legal requirements for filing legal claims.
"This lawsuit represents a historic and profound abuse of the judicial process," Parker said in her decision, adding that the case "was never about fraud - it was about undermining the People's faith in our democracy and debasing the judicial process to do so."
The judge said Powell, Wood, and other lawyers who worked with them "have scorned their oath, flouted the rules, and attempted to undermine the integrity of the judiciary along the way."
Powell did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Wood said on the social media platform Telegram that he "had nothing to do with" the lawsuit and would appeal.
Powell represented Trump's campaign when he tried to overturn last Nov. 3's presidential election in the courts. His campaign distanced itself from Powell after she claimed without evidence at a Nov. 19 news conference that electronic voting systems had switched millions of ballots to Biden.

Sounds like one of those Traitor Roberts “non-partisan” Judges...
More proof of the steal.
That sounds silly right there. Just sayin'. Gotta be a better way.
.
The Judges made crazy statements of outrage in the Stone, Flynn, and Papadopolous cases.
In the case of the DoJ Lawyer that falsified sworn Documents to get the sitting President of the United States, the Judge called him a good man and he got probation.
.
Partisan judges need to be impeached.
“Pro-Trump lawyers” is singularly different than “Trump’s lawyers.” How deliberately confusing. What’s more, Trump distanced himself from these two a long time ago.
The news of this ruling is going out over the hourly news updates on radio.
But RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! is perfectly OK.

What’s in the “judge’s” wallet?
Profound election theft
She’s an Obama judge and we know Barry likes to punish enemies.
Only the beginning.
What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats will do to us.
It is political judges like this that are going to cause this country to experience a second civil war. When people see judges rule based on political ideology and not the law or Constitution, then those judges become enemies of the American people.
At this point, it would be an act of G9ds grace and mercy to allow a civil war.
The nation either breaks apart, or we all get slaughtered by Satan worshiping tyranny, PLUS God judges the entire nation.
It would be better to separate out from the satanic tyranny, and Gods judgement is on them, than the entire nation.
And Gods judgement is imminent on these blood soaked baby body parts, child trafficking, for profit criminal thug sodomites.

“to overturn Democratic President Joe Biden’s election victory...”
That presupposes that Biden actually had an election victory.
