Sidney Powell has entered into a plea deal in Georgia to save her ass from the trial that is scheduled to begin tomorrow there. One place where that deal is not being celebrated is Bedminster, Mar a Lago, Trump Tower, or whatever overdecorated dump Donald Trump will lay his toilet-paper enshrouded coif tonight.
I just turned 70 and I have voted in every election since I became legal age to vote. In all those years it never occurred to me even once that there was massive fraud in an election. I worked as an election judge for several years in our tiny Southern Illinois town when paper ballots were often used and then later the infamous hanging Chad ballots. But in all that time, I never saw one instance of fraud. Sometimes the elections were decided by less than 100 votes and the loser was gracious and conceded the election. It makes me sick and sad to read about these ignorant people and what they have done to our free election system.
Yes, it's a kind of contagious tribalism at its worst, turning neighbor against neighbor at a higher level of animosity than we've seen since at various times in the 1960s, the Great Depression's labor and electoral struggles, and then all the way back past plenty of civil liberties and organizing struggles to the U.S. Civil War era. But now we have all the high tech and mass media outlets increasingly available to unhinged people with only a smattering of any higher education, lack of conscience or sense of responsibility for their own statements,
ulterior motives run amok - and that's not to mention disinformation ops from U.S. foreign adversaries.
Maybe, like - Rosann Rosanadana? - they thought they were dealing with "flea erections"? Sorry. Sometimes I have to laugh just to stop crying for a while.
This has gotta be the dumbest bunch of criminals ever. There must be organized crime types looking at this and shaking their heads in wonder.
Even if Trump isn’t, how many of his minions are either going to be locked up or at least pled out by next November? Doesn’t seem like a good look for the ol’ campaign.
This was one of your funniest ones, especially referencing the “toilet-wrap coif”! I got the biggest kick out of that because I remember my mom doing that. 🤣
I’m thinking Sidney was a lonely woman and wanted to be noticed. She put her arm through Flynn’s side and then Rudy’s. Like Dorothy, the Tin Man, and the Scarecrow, the three danced right into the Oval Office and held council with the phony guy behind the curtain. She’s gotten lots of attention now.
Multiple layers of human motivation, some likely reaching back into buried childhood traumas, as you suggest - but no reason we should collectively have to pay for Sidney's very expensive histrionics as she "deals with her issues"!
Not only that - it's my own pure speculative hypothesis she even DID "have a rough childhood," raised exactly so as to make your point, it might be even more likely she was "spoiled rotten" or childhood was the standard "mixed bag of goodies and `less than good' /rotten'" experiences.
Besides, the subversive aiding and abetting a "legalized coup d'etat" bit only got going after she was in her sixties, so come on.
Sidney Powell has seemingly had her Come to Jesus moment.Let’s see what the others do when they are called to defend He-Who-Cannot-Be -Named.I am giddy that this may be a house of cards falling but I know that MAGA has deep tentacles.Fingers crossed.
Color me cynical that this is anything more than being cornered and running out of money, facing the very real prospect of prison time, and not any kind of sincere remorse or even some superficial version of"getting religion," - from her Wikipedia bio:
"Powell claimed that Flynn was framed by a covert "deep state" operation,[9][14] and has promoted personalities and slogans associated with the QAnon conspiracy theory. She alleged that a secret international cabal involving communists, "globalists", George Soros, Hugo Chávez (who died in 2013), the Clinton Foundation, the CIA, and thousands of Democratic and Republican officials—including then-Trump ally and Georgia governor Brian Kemp—used voting machines to transfer millions of votes away from Trump in the 2020 presidential election.[15][16][17] After she accused the election technology companies Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic of engaging in a conspiracy to rig the election, both companies sued her for defamation.[18][19][20][21]
Sounds too filled with paranoid ideation to credit her with the requisite self-critical perspectives for anything more than still more chicanery, and desperate reaching out to drag others down with her. In this case, we can celebrate the fact it would be a severe blow to Trump's chances to survive this prosecution, though.
I wouldn't be convinced even if she started on her own syndicated "Christian Bible Sinners Redeemed by God Radio Hour with Sidney Powell" - in fact, that would only signal it's another scam.
But it's between her and her conscience, ultimately - maybe she can discover one before sentencing comes around when they indict her for violating the terms of her parole.
Call me irresponsible. Call me conspiratorial. I fully expect the Kraken to perjure herself when called to testify. This is not the top of the legal or intellectual food chain folks.
I agree. I expect her and the rest of them to ALL lie under oath. Why not? They believe the process that has ensnared them is illegitimate. Plus, none of them has the slightest trace of ethics, morals or conscience.
Maybe before perjuring herself became an automatic ticket to prison, do not Pass Go, Do Not Grift for Dollars, but Powell likely possesses the de minimis quantum of nous to register her only shot at a lesser sentence is to SPILL THE BEANS, ALL THE BEANS, SING SING SING LIKE A CANARY!
I really hope he is brought to justice and is given his just judicial rewards.Never in my lifetime has one man directly or indirectly wreaked such havoc on our democracy and is still getting kid gloves treatment.I will not be alive when a non-fictional account of all of this is written and it will be a mind blower.
Stay optimistic, the medicos and inventors may hit on some more amazing "life extension with good quality of life" tricks any time at all, and discover it's so effective they can speed the marketing process up, seriously!
But I see what you mean, it could realistically take a good twenty years to really assemble all the material for something absolutely comprehensive, there's been such a wide ranging set of mutually connected efforts and plots to destroy our elections, etc. Not to mention all the frauds, like Bannon's fake "build the wall" charity scam.
So many great monikers today! A better translation of TFG, and also the Loser Lizard and Tangeranus, which are both excellent. We need these ways to (unlike the base Base) harmlessly vent our extreme contempt for these evil clowns.
Oh, my goodness, how interesting all this is but the fun part at the end about the hair and toilet paper. Powell has one of those toilet paper hairdos that takes me all the way back to the 50s deep South small town. Hilarious. May all these people get what they so richly deserve And I hope they're miserable every minute from here on out.
Yes, I know but she also reminds me of that trick because everyone did that in the 50s. Trump's hair was an ugly issue way back when. It got Ivana raped by him when she suggested he get a scalp reduction to combat his baldness and it only made it weirder.

It would really be funny, if it weren't so dangerous.

Love the visual of those three idiots as Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow, skipping along to see the Lizard of Loss.
We're off to see the Lizard, the wonderful Lizard of Loss,
You'll find he is a loser Lizard, if ever a loser there was.
If ever oh ever a loser there was The Lizard of Loss is one because,
Because, because, because, because, because,
Because of the ignorant things he does.
We're off to see the Lizard, the ignorant Lizard of Loss!

And BFD to The Krachead anyway. Lots of us had rough childhoods. We didn't try to overthrow our government.

My mom did, too, for a period! Man, did we kids give her the business about it, too.

And lots of cash to throw around!

Yuppers
WTF are republicans so scared of the fat orange thug?

Perjury?

Ya, she might not be able to rub all that Trump Brown off her face in time.
Honestly I want them all to go to jail for years and years and years. But I guess they can all go free if that means tangeranus dies in prison.
Oh I'm using Tangeranus!
I always use TFG( The F*cking Grifter)
I really hope he is brought to justice and is given his just judicial rewards.Never in my lifetime has one man directly or indirectly wreaked such havoc on our democracy and is still getting kid gloves treatment.I will not be alive when a non-fictional account of all of this is written and it will be a mind blower.

its the best!
Not Orangeanus?
That would be nice.
That TP/AquaNet deal does take me back.
Hey! Some of us just ironed our hair. 🤷🏻

The TP reference was to Trump's hair, not the Kraken's.
I see them passing the roll back and forth cell to cell.
Yes, I know but she also reminds me of that trick because everyone did that in the 50s. Trump's hair was an ugly issue way back when. It got Ivana raped by him when she suggested he get a scalp reduction to combat his baldness and it only made it weirder.
On the bright side, they don’t have to dress up for Halloween. They can just go trick or treating as they are.
Another handy use of toilet paper back in the day were the mummies stalking the streets for candy...
Tips for maintaining hairdos along with conspiracy revelations! What more can one ask for?
Is this The Gang Who Couldn’t Shoot Straight?
No. This is magnitudes stupider.
