SCOOP - Sidney Powell was in Oval Office last night as POTUS discussed making her special counsel for election fraud. @KannoYoungs and me
Among those pushing back on the idea was Pat Cipollone, Meadows and even Giuliani. But Giuliani separately pushed DHS this week to seize control of voting machines to examine them for possible fraud. DHS said it has no authority to do that. https://nytimes.com/2020/12/19/us/
The meeting got raucous, with various administration members drifting in and out and different people arguing. Powell told others they were quitters, people people briefed on the meeting https://nytimes.com/2020/12/19/us/
The fact of the meeting - and Giuliani hope of seizing the voting machines - has alarmed some of the president's advisers, who see his desire to take his refusal to accept the election results as in a dangerous new place https://nytimes.com/2020/12/19/us/

(115,615 posts)1. That could actually be a good thing, because she's completely incompetent
as we have seen from her remarkable losing streak in the past few weeks.

she could easily be fired for cause.

What ever horrible thing they may do will be equally hilarious and ineffective.

What do people like Powell benefit by signing onto his insanity with only a month left in his presidency? What on earth can he do for them that would be worth such humiliation?

.... and the White House his Royal Palace ?
musclecar6
(1,684 posts)11. Yeah
All he has to do is issue an executive water crowning himself emperor for life. Since hes obviously nuts, nobody tell him that order will be overturned as soon as Joe gets sworn in, and hell go merrily on his way bellowing and tweeting more nonsense.
