Sidney Powell, the attorney who used that catchphrase for her work to overturn the 2020 presidential election, pleaded guilty today to six misdemeanors in Fulton County, Georgia, as part of a sweeping racketeering case against Donald Trump and 16 others. Under the terms of the deal, Powell admitted she conspired to breach the election systems in Coffee County, Georgia. She recorded a proffer video with prosecutors that described the crimes and she agreed to testify at future cases. She also wrote an apology letter to citizens of Georgia and agreed to pay almost $9,000 in fines.
The plea deal appears to be a very good one for Powell—letting her off with only misdemeanors, which can be wiped from her record as a first offender if she complies with the terms of the agreement. She was set to go on trial tomorrow, alongside the lawyer Kenneth Chesebro, who is accused of designing a scheme to submit false electors on behalf of Trump. (Powell still faces defamation charges from manufacturers of voting machines, and she’s an unindicted co-conspirator in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s federal case against Trump.)
“It’s a great deal. If I were her, I’d be very pleased,” Anthony Michael Kreis, a law professor at Georgia State, told me. “It’s a great outcome especially if you’re engaged in what most people would say are obvious felonies.”
The question is what it gives prosecutors. Although today’s plea doesn’t offer the public any new information about the prosecutors’ case or the evidence they have, it seems to have a potential to affect the overall Fulton County case in three ways. In short, Kreis told me, “I think there are a lot of people who are in more trouble than they were before.”

“Who TH is Anthony Michael Kreis”
Undoubtedly just another Far Left Rat or else he wouldn’t be in The Atlantic.
“There was real voter fraud in Coffee Co, GA”
And anyone who notices that are now being prosecuted and convicted by the very criminals who benefitted.
Most people here have probably forgotten than in the defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion against Powell (and others), her official defense was that she couldn't be guilty of defaming anyone because her public statements were so outlandish, zany and clearly false that "no one would believe them."
I wouldn't waste a minute of my time defending this huckster.
I feel both sorry and disgust for you freaks that think your passive/aggressive attracts on Trump show anything but what a loser you are. There are several of you here at FR, may you rot in hell.
Nowhere in my post do I suggest that Powell was hired in this particular case. You are either hallucinating or lying.
Sorry to sound so negative, but I would claim the swamp already owns us, and after they complete the destruction of Trump there will be no hope of ever reversing that situation.
You all are jumping the gun, Powell has nothing to say that is going to hurt Trump. She was way over charged with like 7 felonies they could never prove. She is pleading guilty to non-felony charges with almost zero consequences. What else could she do? They would financially ruin her even if she beat all the charges.
Thank you for the heartfelt message, I can take you off my Xmas card list if you want.
Do you honestly believe I’ll change my opinions based on your rant because it won’t
There was real voter fraud in Coffee Co, GA.

For sure… but Sydney was looking in all the wrong places.
That’s your opinion which is fine but you should learn to respect others opinions and remember your never 100% right and condemning them to hell is pretty childish
The Atlantic was purchased and taken over by chi-com affiliates. They came out with the fake story about Trump denigrating dead soldiers at Normandy.
The prosecution with Sidney over reached with 7 felony charges which were all dropped. If there was an actual crime, there would still be felony charges. The misdemeanor charges are a way for the prosecution to save face and give the leftist media like The Atlantic the semblance of red meat to feed to their drooling low information supporters.
Sidney has nothing to give them as far as anything remotely criminal. First, no crimes occurred on Trump’s behalf, and if crimes did hypothetically occur, they wouldn’t hesitate to throw Sidney in jail for the maximum possible sentence.
I write this as someone who supports Ron DeSantis.
given their, ahem, flexible moral code, lawyer defendants can usually be relied on to grab a deal in exchange for flipping. It’s in their DNA.
The question is then, if they get Trump, do we sit idly by and let them destroy him, or do we take a stand?
She got 9. felonies dismissed so President Trump should have his felonies dismissed also.
Re: 30 - now that’s funny!
Did he actually hire her? Or were she and Wood doing things on their own, on behalf of Pres Trump?
The Trump campaign fired her on 11/22/20 but she continued blabbing on in her own capacity after that.
I just commented/asked if she was actually employed by Pres Trump. Thanks for this.
