President Dumbo Don's lunatic lawyer, Sydney Powell has been running around the conservative media echo bubble claiming that Dominion voting machines are part of a massive fraud that encompasses seven or eight states, but only states that Biden won. NOT ANY others! Of course she is a liar, and has been relieved of her duties as part of the Trump legal team - the B team at best. This FOX News interview debunks this voting-machine conspiracy theory.
As Michael Steel explained in the video, the Dominion machine keeps a running count of the votes but they also produce a paper ballot that the voter reviews to make sure their votes were captured correctly before handing the hard copy to election officials. If the machines ever had a problem or a glitch we have the paper trail to recount the vote, making Powell a corrupt liar.
When pushed by the FOX interviewer, Steel said "I've got the facts on my side ... the President's lawyers don't have a scintilla of proof." Powell claims that these machines were used in Pennsylvania to steal the election for Biden, but in the 14 counties in Pennsylvania where Dominion machine were used, Trump captured 52 percent of the vote. Fraud Sydney?
Finally, Steel deals with yet another crazy conspiracy that claims that Dominion bribed Republican Georgia governor Brian Kemp and his republican secretary of state to throw the election in the Peach State for Biden. Kemp is one of Trump's biggest supporters in the country. Kemp was one of the first MAGA governors to open up his state during Covid to appease the President - public health be damned. Why would Kemp accept a bribe from Dominion? If he was approached by Dominion with a bribe, wouldn't he be all over FOX News, OANN, and News Maxx screaming bloody murder?
For those people out there who feel the need to believe in conspiracy theories, let me offer up yet another place for you to get information that debunks these fictional stories. It might surprise you to find out that it is a Trump-administration government website, which deals with all the alleged conspiracies with wait for it, wait for it, EVIDENCE!!!!! Fair warning, this site will require you to do some reading, so I'm sure Trump will never see it. And his supporters probably will not either. After all, they once screamed that everyone should "read the transcript" of the Ukraine call, but in the very next breath said they didn't not "read the transcript."
The Trump campaign is having even less success in court. Even though Giuliani and Powell are out there telling anyone with a camera that election fraud is everywhere, in court they refuse to acknowledge the fraud because they could be disbarred for lying in open court and could even be charged with contempt. That is why case after case is being dismissed around the country by conservative and liberal justices alike. By the way, thank God for our judiciary. They have saved the Republic during this very dark period in American history.
Judge Matthew Brann, a conservative justice in Pennsylvania, who was appointed by Barack Obama by the way, provides the latest example. This Federalist Society justice buried Trump's "legal" team for not having any evidence of fraud and for introducing this frivolous case. Brann admonished the Trump team for trying to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters without evidence and dismissed their case with prejudice.
Anyone at this point who insists that the election was stolen is just not paying attention. Proof is everywhere that this election was the securest we - the United States - have ever conducted, and anyone who refuses to acknowledge reality is actively damaging democracy.
