In the first federal court reckoning since the failure of the so-called Kraken litigation, a judge on Monday told pro-Trump lawyers Lin Wood, Sidney Powell and their co-counsel that she was concerned that their legal team allowed dodgy affidavits to be filed.
The court is concerned that these affidavits were submitted in bad faith, U.S. District Judge Linda Parker said in a blockbuster remark.
Earlier in hearing, Judge Parker put the lawyers on notice: When you come to the Eastern District of Michigan, you familiarize yourself in the local rules.
More than half a year ago on Dec. 7, Judge Parker decisively rejected Powell and Woods effort to overturn President Joe Bidens victory in Michigan in a scathing, 36-page ruling.
Plaintiffs ask this court to ignore the orderly statutory scheme established to challenge elections and to ignore the will of millions of voters, Parker wrote. This, the Court cannot, and will not, do.

Another witness, Terpsichore Tore Maras-Lindeman, was billed as a secret intelligence contractor but was depicted by the Post as a small-town fraudster because of her civil prosecution in North Dakota that led to more than $25,000 in penalties and attorneys fees for allegedly duping donors a supposed Christmas fundraiser. A pro-Trump podcaster, her Navy experience reportedly lasted less than a year.
