Trump lawyer Sidney Powell filed numerous lawsuits alleging massive voter fraud. Dominion Voting Systems was one of her major targets. Dominion is suing her and others for defamation.
Dominion Voting Systems on Friday filed a defamation lawsuit against lawyer Sidney Powell, demanding more than $1.3 billion in damages for havoc it says Powell has caused by spreading “wild” and “demonstrably false” allegations, including that Dominion played a central role in a fantastical scheme to steal the 2020 election from President Trump.
For weeks, Powell has claimed that Dominion was established with communist money in Venezuela to enable ballot-stuffing and other vote manipulation, and that those abilities were harnessed to rig the election for former vice president Joe Biden
. In a 124-page complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Dominion said its reputation and resale value have been deeply damaged by a “viral disinformation campaign” that Powell mounted “to financially enrich herself, to raise her public profile, and to ingratiate herself to Donald Trump.” The defendants named in the lawsuit include Powell, her law firm and Defending the Republic, the organization she set up to solicit donations to support her election-related litigation...
As Powell’s accusations about Dominion spread after the election, the company’s employees were stalked, harassed and received death threats via email, text and phone: “we are already watching you,” read a text message to one Dominion employee, according to the complaint. “Come clean and you will live.”
The company says it has spent more than $565,000 on protection for personnel since the election.
Dominion has sent retraction demands or document preservation letters, often precursors to litigation, to more than 20 individuals and entities, including to Wood, White House Counsel Pat Cipollone and Trump’s personal attorney, Rudolph W. Giuliani; and to Fox News, Newsmax, One America News and the Epoch Times, media companies that have lent Powell an enormous platform in the two months since the election.
Some of the news outlets, including Fox, have since backed off the claims or issued corrective statements.
Powell: “(Gulp) B-b-b-b-billion?”
Porky Pig: “Th-th-th-th-that’s all folks!”
$1.3 billion is what, like a year’s salary for a DC lawyer?
The lawsuit is a terrific and harrowing read. Quite the timeline to the growth of the mass delusion that became a lynch mob 1/6/21
Reportedly, Sidney Powell has links to Leonard Leo. It’s not surprising given that she was scheduled for a panel following the Gold Circle Member meeting at the August event of the Council for National Policy. The two other panel members were Joseph diGenova and Carrie Severino.

Linda,
Is Trump Catholic too?
Trump’s religious supporters believe he was chosen by God. They evidently understand him to be of their faith.
Religious K-12 schools that taxpayers fund are changing the Pledge of Allegiance to the United States recited by their students, to include religion-specific doctrine. It is alarming. It is alarming when the top government attorney counseling America’s White House attended one of those schools, regardless of sect.
