BREAKING: Attorney SIDNEY POWELL is taking a plea deal in Fulton County, one day before jury selection was set to begin for her election interference case alongside Ken Chesebro.

9:53 AM · Oct 19, 2023

I'd say this is great news for us and terrible news for Trump, although we've seen other Trump flunkies flip on Trump and then flip right back. (Flynn, Manafort, Papadopolous.)

1. This sounds promising!

[yellowcanine]

2. LOL.

[getagrip_already]

3. Flynn and manafort never flipped on trump.....

More accurately they flipped on themselves.

But they never gave evidence against tiny.

If Powell does, and she likely has to, it's gonna leave a mark.

Yeah, she's team crazy, but she is trump crazy.

[H2O Man]

30. She is crazy.

There was a time, however, when she was respected as having an intelligent, capable legal mind. The cult experience changed that. It makes one wonder was she always nuts, just able to hide it, or did belonging to the cult change her? Of course, similar questions are asked about Leslie Van Houten.

6. The attorney fees were adding up.

7. Fani Willis is facing impeachment

Hope the voters in Atlanta recognize what she has contributed to the process of holding these traitors accountable, when seemingly no one else would (with the exception of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel), and support her.

13. No Fani is not facing impeachment,

Georgia Magats are not following the impeachment procedure. Georgia Magats wrote a new law that allows a Magat-selected panel to remove Fani. I talked about this happening and was called a chicken little.

[redqueen]

23. You're correct, there was an attempt but it was apparently just political theater

and the guy behind it was apparently smacked down by other Republicans.

Would be interested to know more about the maga panel you mentioned.

[gab13by13]

26. No, they plan to remove her, it just shouldn't be called an impeachment.

[PortTack]

28. The GA attorney general and the governor have openly said they do not intend on removing her for

Doing her job

[edisdead]

36. This is incorrect.

The people that matter say there is no intention of that happening.

[struggle4progress]

8. ... The plea agreement has Powell paying a $6,000 fine and $2,700 restitution to the state of Georgia as well as writing an apology

letter to the citizens of Georgia, testifying at trial, and serving six years of probation.

9. We're in Budapest...

And I just heard Chesebro’s sphincter tighten from hear.

[Arazi]

12. She's getting off very very light

I hope this means that she’s turned over a boatload of evidence to get such a light sentence

[gab13by13]

14. She would not get a good deal unless she cooperated

She is getting 6 years probation which is significant because if she violates her probation she goes to jail. Also, the proof for someone violating probation is not that high.

[droidamus2]

20. More than that

She is getting 6 years probation

[gab13by13]

27. Thank you, I knew that, but didn't write that.

[Mr.Bill]

24. That's disappointing

It should have included some jail time. I hope she at least gets disbarred

[PortTack]

29. I think she already has been disbarred

[struggle4progress]

34. It seems Texas declined to disbar her

[Doc_Technical]

35. Don't count on it

I want this guy to start singing,
not the cut up AM version,
I want the long album track.

[Fiendish Thingy]

10. The Cheese stands alone...

Sorry, couldn’t help myself.

[gab13by13]

15. That allows Fani to concentrate on Chesbro, the mastermind.

Chesbro turned down a plea agreement to only plead guilty to 1 charge in return for probation, with his record being wiped clean.

I'm guessing that Trump strong armed Chesbro not to make the deal. Trump gets away with shit because people are afraid of him.

[wnylib]

19. And people are afraid of him because he

publicizes statements that make them targets of death threats.

I suspect that he also makes direct, private threats to people, couched in mob rhetoric.

[orleans]

11. "Powell will also be required to testify at future trials " per cnn. nt

[thesquanderer]

18. She may not be sane enough to be a credible witness! ;-) (n/t)

[gab13by13]

16. DOJ didn't investigate the fake electors until Jack Smith took over.

These fake elector crimes should have been brought by DOJ. Thank the gods that Fani started investigating Trump on March 2021.

Time Matters.

[Shanti Shanti Shanti]

17. CONVICTED of 6 RICO misdemeanors, 6 YRS probation, +$6000 fines

What a deal! Now SQUEAL and SELL OUT everyone else, down the river!

lololololol

[iluvtennis]

21. Should have been at least 1-year in prison. These minimal fines and probation are enough of a deterrent. n/t

[JenniferJuniper]

32. But maybe it will encourage other defendants to cooperate.

[PortTack]

31. I wonder if the deal came after she revealed what she knew giving her a sweet deal for solid damning info

[Aviation Pro]

22. Fine dining for the Kraken

A healthy portion of buttmunch (Powell) with a side of Motherfucker.

[Pepsidog]

25. Goodbye law license.
