How Sidney Powell inaccurately cited Venezuela’s elections as evidence of U.S. fraud.
Sidney Powell, a lawyer on President Trump’s election legal team who represented the former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn, has been a major source and promoter of viral conspiracy theories about vote switching.Since the election, Ms. Powell has advanced claims of voluminous voter fraud and a rigged election. She falsely claimed that a supercomputer called Hammer hacked votes, that Mr. Trump won the election by “millions of votes” and that voting software company Dominion Voting Systems altered the tallies.
Last week, she promised that coming evidence would overturn the election’s results and said she would “release the Kraken,” a reference to the 1981 movie “The Clash of the Titans,” reprising a catchphrase that began trending on Twitter.
The excerpts from Ms. Powell also included numerous inaccurate claims to imply a similarity between Venezuela’s elections and the U.S. election, chiefly drawing dubious parallels between Smartmatic and Dominion, which was used in several key states. Ms. Powell took the claims one step further, telling the right-wing media company Newsmax that Venezuela’s vote counting system was then “exported” to the United States.
I don't think we have to worry about Venezuelan influence on the outcome of our elections any longer. Quite the opposite. If past is prologue we can expect a trump sycophant to be the future leader of Venezuela. The only remaining question being the nationality of said leader.
Colin Powell, no relation, said of Iraq......."If you break it you own it." It doesn't appear the regime has given a lot of thought to that. Imagine my surprise.
