Trump 2020 Fraud Backer Sidney Powell's Texas Ethics Case Tossed

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

(Bloomberg) -- A Texas judge has tossed out a disciplinary case against attorney Sidney Powell finding state bar regulators failed to present enough evidence to keep alive claims that she violated ethics rules by filing frivolous post-election lawsuits.

Powell, a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump following the 2020 presidential election, lead a series of unsuccessful legal efforts to contest President Joe Biden’s wins in battleground states. She also promoted false conspiracy theories of widespread election fraud, including that voting machine software had flipped votes for Trump to Biden and had its origins in election-rigging efforts in Venezuela.

The Texas Commission for Lawyer Discipline filed a case against Powell last March in state district court in Dallas County, accusing her of professional misconduct. Bar regulators won an earlier round, with Judge Andrea Bouressa denying Powell’s motion to dismiss the case last summer.

But in a four-page order entered on Wednesday, Bouressa, a Republican appointee of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, found that the commission failed to meet its burden on several claims it had lodged against Powell and simply failed to respond to Powell’s challenges to others.

2. At this point.....

it's all the 'underwater sludge' working together to keep the rest of the 'underwater sludge' alive.
All we need now is Special Counsel Jack to pull the plug and the 'whosh' sound of a swirling drain will be music to the ears of true Americans.

She has been sued by Dominion and Smartmatic (which will probably be financially devastating for her)
