Former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell, a Trump campaign lawyer, suggested in a Sunday interview that there is still more evidence coming out in President Donald Trump’s claims of voter fraud and irregularities.
“We’re getting ready to overturn election results in multiple states,” Powell said, saying that she has enough evidence of election fraud to launch a widespread criminal investigation.
“I don’t make comments without having the evidence to back it up,” she added, saying that elections software switched “millions of votes” from Trump to Democratic nominee Joe Biden.
Powell notably provided legal counsel to Gen. Michael Flynn in 2019. She was named to Trump’s legal team in the past several days.
Powell said a whistleblower came forward and said the elections software was designed to “rig elections,” saying that “he saw it happen in other countries,” referring to voting systems Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic, or perhaps other software and machines.
“We have so much evidence, I feel like it’s coming in through a fire hose,” Powell said, while noting that she won’t reveal the evidence that she has.
“They can stick a thumb drive in the [voting] machine, they can upload software to it even from the Internet … from Germany or Venezuela even,” she said, adding that operations “can watch votes in real-time” and “can shift votes in real-time,” or alleged bad actors can “remote access anything.”
“We’ve identified mathematically the exact algorithm they’ve used—and planned to use from the beginning” that allegedly switched votes to Biden, Powell remarked.
Powell also made reference to a 2019 investigation from Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), as well as other Democratic lawmakers into Dominion Voting Systems, Election Systems & Software, and Hart InterCivic. The senators had expressed concerns about the security of the voting systems.
“(W)e have concerns about the spread and effect of private equity investment in many sectors of the economy, including the election technology industry—an integral part of our nation’s democratic process,” wrote the lawmakers in their letters to the firms about a year ago.
“These problems threaten the integrity of our elections and demonstrate the importance of election systems that are strong, durable, and not vulnerable to attack.”
Later in the Sunday morning interview, Powell said that her team has “detected voting irregularities that are inexplicable” in states where officials believe they have valid systems.
During the election, Republicans in the House were able to flip at least 11 seats while the GOP is poised to maintain control of the Senate. Some conservatives have questioned how such a voting pattern is possible for Biden to win the presidential election, let alone receive more votes than any other presidential candidate in American history, including President Barack Obama’s victory in 2008.

Are you aware that not even Trump's attorneys aren't claiming fraud in court? [Reply]
They have to go through the motions to get to the US Supreme Court. A recount don't mean shit. An audit, where each vote is scrutinized, now that would mean something. Trust me knucklehead, audits, at the least, are coming! [Reply]

Fraud is a vague word. When the judge asks Rudy if he was alleging fraud, and Rudy says "no," there is a reason behind his "no" answer. If your goal is to get a case to the USSC, steps have to be taken, I's dotted, and T's crossed.
Don't be obtuse, dunger. It makes looking at that ugly picture of yours even harder! [Reply]

No, it isn't vague at all. And, here:
Pennsylvania
In a recent Pennsylvania federal case, Giuliani alleged “widespread, nationwide voter fraud” in his opening remarks. But under questioning from the judge, he retreated. “This is not a fraud case,” Giuliani later admitted. In the same case, Trump lawyer Linda Kearns said explicitly that she is “not proceeding” on allegations of fraud.
In a separate state case in Montgomery County, Pa., a judge asked Trump lawyer Jonathan S. Goldstein whether he was alleging fraud. “Your honor, accusing people of fraud is a pretty big step,” Goldstein said. “And it is rare that I call somebody a liar, and I am not calling the Board of the [Democratic National Committee] or anybody else involved in this a liar. Everybody is coming to this with good faith.” The judge pressed Goldstein to answer the specific question: “Are you claiming that there is any fraud in connection with these 592 disputed ballots?” To which Goldstein replied: “To my knowledge at present, no.”
In yet another state case in Bucks County, Pa., Trump’s attorneys signed a joint stipulation of facts that explicitly admits that they are not alleging fraud, despite the President and his lawyers’ repeated public claims, according to Marc Elias, a lawyer working for Democrats on election-related cases. The stipulation of facts reads in part: “Petitioners do not allege, and there is no evidence of, any fraud in connection with the challenged ballots.” The stipulation also says they don’t allege or have evidence of “misconduct” or “impropriety” in connection with the challenged ballots.
Arizona
In a state case concerning votes in Maricopa County, Ariz., Trump lawyers again dodged and weaved. On Nov. 12, the same day that the President himself was tweeting about hundreds of thousands of votes being stolen from him, a Trump campaign attorney Kory Langhofer told a judge, “We are not alleging fraud in this lawsuit. We are not alleging anyone stealing the election.”
While Trump has repeatedly claimed that glitches in voting machines were evidence of foul play, Langhofer also threw cold water on that idea, saying instead the case concerned “a limited number of cases” of “good-faith errors in operating machines.” The Trump campaign has since dropped this case.
Nevada
Lawyers representing Trump’s campaign sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr on Nov. 5 alleging “criminal voter fraud” in Nevada. But lawyers representing Trump never made that allegation in court filings. Instead, as in many of the other Trump campaign election cases, the Nevada filings focus on much smaller claims, including questions about the use of a scanning machine to verify signatures and whether observers had proper access to observe vote counting.
What do you think is going to be the argument going before SCOTUS, and what makes you think SCOTUS will even hear it? [Reply]
Please explain how you see this is the case when practically everyone else thinks otherwise?
Thanks for the correction.
My understanding is that the Chinese devalued their currency to reduce their loss of market share. As a result, they were able to sell their goods to American importers at a lower price to keep their after-tariff prices somewhat stable. So, for example, if they were exporting something to the US that resulted in a $10 tariff, they’d be selling it $10 cheaper than they used to sell it so the taxpayer in the US sees no net loss based on the tariff.
I don’t know that China paid 100% of the cost of the tariffs, but they paid a substantial portion of them through their currency manipulation. [Reply]

He knows that. He's doing his usual trolling, nothing more. He's done the same thing with his "How many states have overturned..." schtick. He's a lousy troll, but that's all it takes around here. [Reply]

An audit as in matching each ballot to a signature? [Reply]

Trumpers have alleged "fraud" on so many levels, it's obvious nothing would ever satisfy them. Millions of dead people voted. Millions of fake ballots. Millions of forged ballots. Millions of Trump ballots thrown away. Software was rigged. It will always be something.
And when recounts and audits confirm the results, all the people involved are in on it--hundreds of poll workers and even R government officials, R governors, and R-appointed judges. [Reply]
He's just a whiny bitch of a loser and knows his cult followers well.
Used the "but muh polls" and "couldn't have gotten this many votes" schtick 4 years ago.:-)
Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified.

Hey Dumbass.
You were the first here to congratulate Trumpers for their victory on election night [Reply]
