You can't make stuff like this up.
I have practiced law for 43 years and have never witnessed a proceeding like this. I take full responsibility for the pleadings in this case.
We had a legal obligation to the country and to the electors to raise these issues. It is the duty of lawyers in the highest tradition of the practice of law to raise unpopular issues.
-- Powell
I don't think I've really ever seen an affidavit that has made so many leaps. This is really fantastical. So my question to counsel here is how could any of you as officers of the court present this type of an affidavit?
-- the judge, right back at Powell
Simply put, there is "raise unpopular opinion" and "submit bullshit backless claims under oath". I can say "Trump is morbidly obese and weighs six hundred pounds" all I want...
here. I say that under oath, I'm in trouble. So why the hell would I submit a court claim saying "Trump weighs 600 pounds" if I couldn't back that up?
The judge took issue with the team that used public court filings to baselessly claim that there was something wrong with the election, such as a guy who said he saw two post office guys with plastic bags that could have had illegal ballots, no really, that's what was submittted,
a guy who says he saw plastic bags. That shit was filed as "evidence". The judge is being asked to force Powell and her Krak team to
(a) pay for taxpayer court costs
(b) lose their licences, henceforth to be known as "pulling a Giuliani"
and from the back-and-forth, the judge is leaning further in that direction than away from it.
I will also point out that Lin Wood's name came up. I don't know why,
He's been cited but has publicly denied being part of the case. I remember Wood, I think he's a proven doucehbag, but if he was cited
without his permission then we get something even better: Team Trump turning on itself in broad fucking daylight.
