To S. Powell: 'Do you ever hear yourself and think it sounds ridiculous?'

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/election-fraud-conspiracy-theorist-sidney-powell-pressed-by-australian-reporter-do-you-ever-hear-yourself-and-think-it-sounds-ridiculous/ar-AANVjcd?li=BBnb7Kz

At one point during the interview, Powell responded to a line of questioning by asking Ferguson if she works for Smartmatic and stated that she was confused about why Ferguson came to interview her in Highland Park, Texas.

"Because you've made a series of very strong allegations against Smartmatic and against Dominion containing many errors of fact," Ferguson responded.

Shortly after, Powell attempted to stop the interview, saying it was "wholly inappropriate" because of pending litigation.

After reluctantly returning to finish the interview, Powell continued to stick by her baseless claims that widespread election fraud was perpetrated in 2020.

"I am saying that thousands of Americans had some role in [2020 election fraud], knowingly or unknowingly. It was essentially a bloodless coup where they took over the presidency of the United States without a single shot being fired," Powell said.

After Powell added that the election fraud had been planned for at least three years, Ferguson asked her, "Do you ever hear yourself and think it sounds ridiculous?"

and their effect was far more traumatizing if we had them young, when we were more vulnerable. I've encountered some grade school teachers who really don't seem to even like kids. I think they like the power over the children however. They could get away with some really nasty crap for years.

maintain a stoic and self-righteous front while spouting insane crap based entirely on pure speculation IS pretty impressive, I have to say.
