Tucker Carlson bashes Trump attorney Sidney Powell for lack of evidence in fraud claims: ‘She never sent us any’As Fox News host Tucker Carlson noted on Thursday night, he’s more than willing to give airtime to outlandish claims. “We literally do UFO segments,” he said.
But even Carlson said he was fed up with the total lack of evidence produced by Sidney Powell, one of the Trump campaign’s attorneys, for her unfounded allegation that electronic voting systems had switched millions of ballots to favor President-elect Joe Biden.
“We invited Sidney Powell on the show. We would have given her the whole hour,” Carlson said. “But she never sent us any evidence, despite a lot of requests, polite requests. Not a page. When we kept pressing, she got angry and told us to stop contacting her.”
Carlson also noted: “She never demonstrated that a single actual vote was moved illegitimately by software from one candidate to another. Not one.”
Because of her association with such a perversion of American democracy and such a manifest fraud on the courts, it’s hard to have any respect for this person.
That said, I have just read some reviews of the book and will look for it in my library network. I am certainly of the opinion that many prosecutors are deeply flawed human beings and among the most dangerous people in our legal system, so I have little doubt I will find much in her book that resonates with me.
However, this in no way exonerates 45*; just because some prosecutors in the DOJ are corrupt doesn’t mean he isn’t just as corrupt - quite a bit more so, in fact.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha *gasp* hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!1 *whew!*
Sidney Batshit-Fox-TV-Lawyer Powell??? Sidney It's-Okay-for-Mike-Flynn-to-Lie-to-the-FBI-and-the-Court Powell?? That Sidney Powell?
Well, if there's a book "by" Sidney Powell called License to Lie, she is certainly an authoritative source!
A week ago Sidney Powell promised she would "release the Kraken" and provide "staggering" evidence of massive voter fraud. Might have been a good idea to do that sometime before getting Trump's lawsuits dismissed for, y'know, complete lack of evidence (also lack of standing and lack of any actual coherent legal theory). But you go girl!
GAH!

What would cause the election results to require Congress to select the president and vice president?

A coup engineered against the clear will of the people of the various states as expressed by the recent election. Any more questions?

Why Republican voters say there’s ‘no way in hell’ Trump lost

Re: 2020 Election results
And, of course, how many hail Mary's did the Democrats try to overturn the result in 2016, with the rank and file earnestly believing each effort would succeed? Not accepting the obvious is a bi-partisan failing.
Re: 2020 Election results
The audits and lawsuits will have to play out. Otherwise there will always be questions. The process has started. Have faith.

Re: 2020 Election results
I don't know, how many? The 2016 recounts were initiated by Jill Stein, not Clinton; Clinton conceded on election night; and as far as I recall there were exactly 0 lawsuits filed by the Clinton campaign seeking to overturn the electoral result in any state. And Trump lost PA, MI & WI in 2020 by substantially greater margins than did Clinton in 2016. Do you know something different?

Re: 2020 Election results
Also, Obama publicly congratulated Trump the day after the election, and the next day after that met with him in the White House to discuss the transition. Please refresh my memory about the number of Hail Marys* the Democrats tried.
*(I mean, besides the actual Hail Mary prayers said silently by Catholic Democrats.)

I need to see the proof like everyone else. I'm seeing numerous reports. Until the incidents are proven, they're supposition.Sue U wrote: ↑Sat Nov 21, 2020 4:02 pmI don't know, how many?

Given the diversity and number of incidents, affidavits, etc. that's a lot of smoke for no fire.

Re: 2020 Election results
Help us here LR - my memory is failing. Yes some of us felt aggrieved that the popular vote was obviously for HRC but I don't recall any attempt to overthrow the result. Stein called for a recount in Wisc (if memory serves) for some reason best known to herself.
Let's face it: Ds had won six of the last seven elections (popular vote) by 2016 and we were faced with the real prospect - which turned out to be what happened - of SCOTUS taking a hard right turn against the clear will of the people. We're going to start 2021 with 7 out of 8 election wins and 6 - 3 against on SCOTUS. John Roberts has the appearance of occasionally having a conscience but Alito / Thomas / Kavanaugh / Gorsuch not so. We'll see with Barrett.
And BTW I recall a Fox News segment a few weeks ahead of the 2000 election where they were suggesting (because this was what the polls were indicating) that Gore might have the gall to declare himself the victor even though he had the majority of the EC votes but a minority of the popular vote. They were appalled by this possibility.
