Crazy, crazy, Sydney Powell (65)! After days of bizarre allegations of voter fraud, conspiracy theories and threats to “blow up” Swing State Georgia with a “biblical” lawsuit, the attorney is too embarrassed even for Trump’s side.
Sidney Powell is a freelance attorney. She is not a member of Trump’s legal team. She is also not a personal attorney for the president, “Trump attorneys Rudy Giuliani (76) and Jenna Ellis distanced themselves in a statement Sunday. Giuliani, of all people, increasingly entangled in conspiracy theories and who He appeared with Powell on Wednesday, when sweat and hair color ran down his temples, the lawyer was behind him.
In a 40-minute monologue at a press conference last Thursday, Giuliani spoke furiously about massive electoral fraud, for which he has yet to present any solid evidence. Sidney Powell followed up with Jenna Ellis. They both reiterated long-refuted accusations and spread inconsistent theories.
Fox icon Tucker Carlson has asked for proof
In short, his explanation for Trump’s defeat is as follows: Biden’s ballots have been scanned multiple times, so millions of votes are invalid for him. Also involved in the fraud are Cuba, Venezuela (including former President Hugo Chávez, who died in 2013), China, large cities in the United States, Antifa, technology companies, and even an internet server in Germany.
On Saturday, Powell accused the Republican Governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, 57, and the Secretary of the Interior, Brad Raffensperger, 65, of being part of a conspiracy. “Georgia will probably be the first state that I will blow up and Mr. Kemp and his home secretary will not survive,” he said, speaking of a “biblical” lawsuit against US state Joe Biden, 78. he narrowly won the presidential election.
Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson (51) had asked him for evidence of his strange theories: Powell, like other members of the Trump camp, had presented nothing.
Why Powell is fired now of all time
The fact that the Trump camp is distancing itself from Powell could be an indication that Republicans are increasing pressure on Trump to admit defeat.
So far, Trump has been unsuccessful with his more than 30 lawsuits. A Republican federal judge in Pennsylvania refused to invalidate seven million votes over the weekend. Trump also failed with similar advances in Georgia, Michigan and Arizona.
Trump still sticks to his strategy. A tweet from him on November 14 also contradicts Giuliani’s statement that Powell is not officially part of Trump’s legal team. He had expressly praised her commitment and tweeted that she was part of Rudy Giuliani’s team of “wonderful attorneys and representatives.”
Sidney Powell, a native of North Carolina, is a former prosecutor. He has already represented Trump’s former security adviser, Michael Flynn (61), who had to answer to the FBI in the course of the investigation into possible Russian influence in the 2016 US presidential elections and lies.
In a statement, Powell commented on the break with the Trump camp: “I agree with the assertion … that I am not part of the campaign legal team. I never signed a rate agreement or sent a bill to the president or the campaign for my expenses or fees. “He just wanted to help clear up electoral fraud, from both political camps. His evidence is” overwhelming “and he plans to file a lawsuit this week. “It will be epic.”
Hat Giuliani Trump in der Hand?
While the Trump camp is obviously distancing itself from Sidney Powell due to crazy conspiracy theories, his boss Rudy Giuliani may continue. Trump’s personal attorney, once a figure of national light as “mayor of the United States,” has made a name for himself with strange appearances for more than a year.
However, Trump has not parted ways with him so far. Giuliani also doesn’t seem to think that will ever happen. Already in the impeachment process, he said he believed in Trump’s loyalty to him. And he indicated cryptically and half jokingly: he had “very, very good insurance” if the president “threw him to the wheels.” He did not say whether he was in control of the current president and what exactly he had.
