I only discovered this morning that President Trump and the rest of his legal team decided to distance themselves from the very public disclosures of Sidney Powell. Without reading the backdrop to this decision, my first reaction was President Trump was giving up on exposing the election fraud of the Biden campaign, the Crooked Dems and the Dem propaganda machine MSM.
But after reading snippets of “the distancing” measure by the Trump Legal Team, I developed a more positive theory which I am sure the Dem Marxists probably have cause for concern, i.e. concern Trump is still on board to expose Election/Voter crimes.
My theory: There are too many chiefs at the Pow Wow. Chief Sidney wants to focus on software election manipulation (Dominion, Smartmatic, Syctl, etc.) and Chief Rudy wants to focus on GOP Election Watchers being locked out while millions (nationally) of suspicious ballots that only God & the devil know from whence were harvested in the dead of night under Dem-Marxist control.
The President has made Chief Rudy the leader of the official Pow Wow. To be clear! Chief Sidney has not been told to stop (INDEED, many Pow Wow chiefs not associated with the Trump Legal Team have been pursuing independent legal actions). I suspect Chief Rudy believes illegally GOP Poll Watchers and bogus ballots is easier to expedite through Federal Courts probably ending at SCOTUS.
Powell’s pursuit is legit but will stretch beyond election deadlines in Federal Civil Court. ALSO, Sidney Powell’s battle – she is correct – will include either incompetence but probable criminality on the part of the FBI and CIA which Chief Sidney has hinted at involvement election software fraud. I believe Chief Rudy will prevail which means Chief Sidney’s pursuits begun in civil court will prosper in criminal court.
Well it’s a theory, I believe at least a close one.
Here is some info – construct your own theory or gravitate toward mine.

Gen. Flynn: Sidney Powell ‘Staying the Course,’ Will Prove Alleged Election Fraud
By JACK PHILLIPS
November 22, 2020 Updated: November 23, 2020
The Epoch Times
Gen. Michael Flynn, a former Trump administration official, said lawyer Sidney Powell is “staying the course” and will prove election fraud after the president’s legal team said she is not working for the campaign on Sunday night.
Powell, who represented Flynn in his legal case, “has been suspended from Twitter for 12 hours,” he wrote on Twitter after former New York Mayor and campaign attorney Rudy Giuliani made the statement about her status.
“She understands the WH press release & agrees with it,” Flynn said. “She is staying the course to prove the massive deliberate election fraud that robbed #WeThePeople of our votes for President Trump & other Republican candidates.”
“Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own. She is not a member of the Trump Legal Team. She is also not a lawyer for the President in his personal capacity,” Giuliani said on Sunday night. He did not elaborate.
Last week, President Donald Trump said Powell would be part of his team and representatives. Powell appeared alongside Giuliani and Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis several days later, making claims about voting software companies being involved in a transnational conspiracy to overturn the election.
Dominion Voting Systems, one of the software companies she mentioned, categorically denied her claims. A spokesperson for the Toronto-based firm told Fox News that it isn’t possible to flip votes from Trump to Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
Powell referenced a partly redacted affidavit from a person who claimed to have witnessed the software being used to steal an election for Venezuelan socialist strongman Hugo Chavez and claimed to have worked for the Venezuelan military years ago. The affidavit was subsequently filed in federal court as part of a lawsuit by Lin Wood, another attorney who is associated with the Trump campaign. Chavez died in 2013.
Several days ago, Powell told Newsmax that the team had “tons of evidence.”
“It’s so much, it’s hard to pull it all together,” she said, before explaining that the team would file a massive lawsuit of “biblical” proportions.
She added, “It’s a massive project to pull this fraud claim together with the evidence that I want to put in.”

Sidney Powell Confirms Non-Affiliation With Trump Legal Team, Vows to Continue Fraud Fight
By TOM OZIMEK
November 23, 2020 Updated: November 23, 2020
The Epoch Times
Attorney Sidney Powell, who made headlines with claims that the 2020 election was rigged in favor of Democrat Joe Biden because of software that switched votes, confirmed that she isn’t part of the Trump campaign’s legal team, adding that she is continuing her fight to expose widespread election fraud on behalf of the American public.
Powell was responding to a statement from President Donald Trump’s legal team clarifying that she was acting in her own capacity in pursuing related legal action.
“Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own. She is not a member of the Trump legal team. She is also not a lawyer for the president in his personal capacity,” according to the statement, from attorney Rudy Giuliani and Trump campaign senior legal adviser Jenna Ellis.
Powell, in a statement, said she agrees with the campaign’s announcement that she isn’t part of Trump’s legal team, saying she never signed a retainer nor did she charge the campaign for expenses or fees.
“My intent has always been to expose all the fraud I could find and let the chips fall where they may—whether it be upon Republicans or Democrats,” she stated.
“The evidence I’m compiling is overwhelming that this software tool was used to shift millions of votes from President Trump and other Republican candidates to Biden and other Democrat candidates,” she added. “We are proceeding to prepare our lawsuit and plan to file it this week. It will be epic.”
In a separate statement to CBS, Powell said, “I will continue to represent #WeThePeople who had their votes for Trump and other Republicans stolen by massive fraud through Dominion and Smartmatic, and we will be filing suit soon.” She added the hashtag “#KrakenOnSteroids,” a reference to her previous remarks that the evidence she said she was receiving about allegations of election fraud was massive, and likening its eventual disclosure to “releasing the Kraken.”
At a joint press conference last week, Powell, Giuliani, and Ellis said they have evidence of massive election fraud, which they would release as part of a forthcoming court filing.
Powell said on Nov. 21 that the expected lawsuit would be of “biblical” proportions, alleging also that some election officials were embroiled in a pay-to-play scheme with Dominion Voting Systems, a prominent manufacturer of voting software.
“We’ve got tons of evidence; it’s so much, it’s hard to pull it all together,” Powell told Newsmax. She didn’t provide or elaborate on the evidence.
“Hopefully this week, we will get it ready to file, and it will be biblical,” Powell said. “It’s a massive project to pull this fraud claim together with the evidence that I want to put in.”
Powell said the voting system’s algorithms provided Democrats 35,000 extra votes. She said Democratic candidate Biden’s votes were “weighted” at 1.25 times, while President Donald Trump’s votes were parsed at 0.75.
The longtime lawyer and former federal prosecutor also alleged that there were modifications to some voting machines after the legal cutoff for changes.
Powell also said that some governors may have engaged in a pay-to-play scheme to use Dominion Voting Systems—one of the Trump campaign’s chief targets in recent days.
“Georgia is probably going to be the first state I’m going to blow up,” she said, accusing Republican Gov. Brian Kemp of engaging in such a scheme.
Kemp’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment, although Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has frequently said there were no instances of fraud or irregularities in the state.
Dominion, in several statements to The Epoch Times, has categorically denied allegations of election tampering and voter fraud in recent days, saying that Trump’s team has peddled “falsehoods regarding Dominion” in recent press conferences and interviews.
“Dominion employees do not have access to the [canvass] adjudication system, nor do they operate it,” the Toronto-based firm said in a statement. It added that “access to the adjudication system resides with the election authority using it” and that “the system is controlled through secure and verifiable user accounts, and all voter intent adjustments are securely logged in the system and then recorded in the digital image of the ballot.”
Dominion also cited statements made by the secretaries of state in Michigan, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Georgia, who said they’ve found no evidence of voter fraud large enough to overturn the election.
Meanwhile, the chairman of the Federal Election Commission, Trey Trainor, has repeatedly said there was voter fraud in key states.
“The massive amounts of affidavits that we see in these cases show that there was in fact fraud that took place,” he said during an interview with “Just the News AM” on Nov. 20, while suggesting a lack of transparency.
The questions raised by the Trump campaign in recent days are “very important for the legitimacy of the presidency,” Trainor said.
Trump hasn’t conceded. The Epoch Times will not declare a winner of the 2020 presidential election until all results are certified and any legal challenges are resolved.

A dozen compelling allegations of voting irregularities in 2020 election
From ejected ballot observers to fraudulently backdated mail-in votes, the evidence of irregularities is growing nationwide.
By John Solomon
Updated: November 23, 2020 – 7:57am
Just The News
While many Democrats and their allies in the traditional media argue there is no evidence of systemic voting irregularities in the Nov. 3 election, a mountain of evidence has been amassed in private lawsuits alleging there was, in fact, significant and widespread voting misconduct.
The question for the courts is whether the irregularities were widespread enough to impact the outcome or erase Joe Biden’s lead in at least three of the six battleground states where results are being contested.
And while both President Trump’s campaign and private entities like the Amistad Project are planning to file more lawsuits on Monday, Just the News reviewed the scores of filings and affidavits and declarations in the court cases.
Here are the 12 most compelling pieces of evidence presented to the courts as of Sunday night:
City of Detroit worker swears she witnessed thousands of ballots being falsified
Of all the sworn statements to date, career civil servant Jessy Jacob of Detroit provided the most sweeping claim of election fraud.
She stated in an affidavit she personally witnessed — and in some cases was instructed — to backdate thousands of absentee ballots the day after the election to make them appear legal even though they were not in the Qualified Voter File and had not arrived by the deadline. “I estimate that this was done to thousands of ballots,” her sworn statement says.
Jacob also described how in the weeks before Election Day she witnessed Detroit poll workers skipping voter ID checks and that she was “instructed by my supervisor to adjust the mailing date of these absentee ballot packages to be dated earlier than they were actually sent. The supervisor was making announcements for all workers to engage in this practice.”

Jacob described 70 to 80 other poll workers who also were instructed to falsify ballots, potentially a massive fraud.
Nearly three quarters of Detroit’s precincts had mismatched voting totals
Wayne County Board of Canvassing member William Hartmann, a Republican, says in a sworn declaration that Michigan’s largest county certified results knowing there were massive discrepancies between the approved voter files and the ballots cast and counted in Detroit.
“In my review of the results, I determined that approximately 71% of Detroit’s 134 absentee voter counting boards were left unbalanced and many unexplained,” his statement said.
Hartmann also raised concerns that birth dates in voter ID files “were altered in the pollbooks.”

Unfolded, pristine mail-in ballots flagged in Georgia
At least nine observers who watched an audit last week in Georgia’s razor-thin election have signed affidavits swearing they saw suspicious mail-in ballots, almost uniformly cast for Biden. The ballots were in pristine condition and had no creases on them, meaning the ballots had not been mailed in envelopes as required, according to the affidavits.
“It was pristine. There was a difference in the texture of the paper — it was as if they were intended for absentee use, but had not been used for that purpose,” Susan Voyles, a poll manager with two decades of experience, wrote in her affidavit about her time at a recount center in Fulton County. “There were no markings on the ballots to show where they had come from, or where they had been processed. I observed that the markings for the candidates on these ballots were unusually uniform, perhaps even with a ballot marking device.”
Thousands of ballots went uncounted initially in Georgia, belatedly discovered during audit
Election officials divulged last week that thousands of uncounted ballots were discovered in Georgia, most favoring Trump, during a post-election audit. They include:
- 2,600 uncounted ballots in Floyd County.
- 2,755 ballots in Fayette County that were not included in the original count
- 508 ballots in Walton County
Large numbers of Pennsylvania voters say their absentee votes weren’t counted or someone else requested their mail-in ballot
Just the News interviewed numerous Pennsylvania voters who say either their mail-in ballots were never counted or that someone else had appeared to request and obtained their mail-in ballots. A data scientist then projected from sampling that the problems were widespread.
In a sworn declaration, a respected mathematician says his analysis of election data and phone interviews with Pennsylvania voters raises questions about as many as 100,000 absentee ballots requested in the key battleground state where President Trump and Joe Biden are separated by just about 82,000 votes.
Williams College Professor Steven Miller, a Yale and Princeton trained math expert, said he analyzed Pennsylvania ballot data collected by former Trump campaign data chief Matt Braynard as well as 2,684 voter interviews conducted by a phone bank and found two concerning patterns. One involved possible votes that were not counted, the other ballots that appeared to be requested by someone other than a registered voter.
“I estimate that the number of ballots that were either requested by someone other than the registered Republican or requested and returned but not counted range from 89,397 to 98,801,” Miller said in the sworn statement provided to Just the News.

Las Vegas Review Journal columnist Victor Joecks disclosed he signed a total of nine other voters’ mail-in ballot envelops and eight of the ballots were accepted even though it was not the signature of the voter. That’s an 89% failure rate for Clark County’s signature validation techniques.
“It’s unclear how much voter fraud took place in Nevada,” Joecks wrote. “But it’s clear signature verification isn’t the fail-safe security check elections officials made it out to be.”
Joecks discussed the security weaknesses in a podcast with Just the News last week.

Social worker charged in Texas with submitting voter registration applications for nursing home residents
Kelly Reagan Brunner, a social worker in the Mexia State Supported Living Center in Texas, was charged with submitting voter registration applications for dozens of facility residents absent signatures or effective consent, including some residents who are not even eligible.
“State Supported Living Centers serve people with intellectual and developmental disabilities,” a press release from the Texas attorney general states. “Brunner submitted voter registration applications for 67 residents without their signature or effective consent, while purporting to act as their agent.
“Under Texas law, only a parent, spouse or child who is a qualified voter of the county may act as an agent in registering a person to vote, after being appointed to do so by that person. None of the SSLC patients gave effective consent to be registered, and a number of them have been declared totally mentally incapacitated by a court, thereby making them ineligible to vote in Texas.”
Computer issue in Oakland County, Mich., blamed as a GOP incumbent belatedly declared winner after first being told he lost.
While it had appeared that incumbent Republican Adam Kochenderfer had narrowly lost an Oakland County commissioner election contest, it turned out that he had actually won.
“A computer issue in Rochester Hills caused them to send us results for seven precincts as both precinct votes and absentee votes,” Oakland County Director of Elections Joe Rozell said in a text message, according to the Detroit Free Press. “They should only have been sent to us as absentee votes.”
Antrim County, Mich., reversed election results after error found
Due to an issue in Antrim County, Mich., it appeared that Biden had outpolled Trump according to the unofficial vote count. But it ultimately turned out that the president had actually beaten Biden in the county. According to a Nov. 7 statement from Michigan’s Secretary of State, Democrat Jocelyn Benson, “user error” was to blame for the incorrect unofficial results.
“The error in reporting unofficial results in Antrim County Michigan was the result of a user error that was quickly identified and corrected; did not affect the way ballots were actually tabulated; and would have been identified in the county canvass before official results were reported even if it had not been identified earlier,” according to the statement.
Numerous Republicans poll observers in multiple states say they were improperly ejected
From Michigan to Pennsylvania, numerous GOP poll observers say they were ejected or improperly kept from monitoring ballot-counting in big city election centers. Bipartisan poll watching is supposed to be one of the most important protections against fraud.
David Shestokas, a Chicago-based lawyer who joined several dozen other lawyers and Allegheny County residents to poll-watch in Pittsburgh, said observers for campaigns “were maybe 15, 20 feet from many of the tables, in a coral. Other tables may have been 100-150 feet away.”
“We literally had no input and no ability to watch anything,” he said. “As far as I’m concerned, each and every one of those ballots was opened illegally.”
Voter drive in Nevada targeting Native Americans offered gifts as voting incentives
A get-out-the-vote effort by a Nevada Native American group included a raffle with cash prizes, a tactic the Trump campaign says amounted to an illegal incentive to vote.
The Nevada Native Vote Project, a group that seeks to “increase civic participation of the Indigenous populations in Nevada,” sponsored a “virtual raffle” during this year’s presidential election, according to a post on the group’s Facebook page.
The event, sponsored jointly with the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, informed voters that they would be entered in a raffle if they sent in a photograph of themselves with an “I Voted” sticker and/or a “ballot completion form.”
Among the prizes in the raffle were four $250 gift cards, four $100 gift cards and eight $25 gift cards, as well as “beadwork, t-shirts & more,” the raffle poster advertised.
Los Angeles prosecutors uncover scheme in which thousands of fraudulent ballots cast
Two men were charged last week with 41 counts for allegedly submitting thousands of fraudulent voter registration applications on behalf of homeless people, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Marcos Raul Arevalo, 34, and 53-year-old Carlos Antonio De Bourbon Montenegro, aka Mark Anthony Gonsalves, were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit voter fraud, eight counts of voter fraud, four counts of procuring and offering a false or forged instrument and four misdemeanor counts.

Trump scores two wins as Michigan legislature, federal appeals court agree to election reviews
Michigan House hearing set for Wednesday, and 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals grants expedited review.
By John Solomon
Updated: November 23, 2020 – 4:06pm
Just The News
President Trump’s campaign said it scored two victories Monday in its effort to contest results in several key battleground states, as Michigan state legislators agreed to hold a hearing into election irregularities while a federal appeals court expedited proceedings to consider Trump’s legal challenge in Pennsylvania.
The developments were announced by Trump campaign senior legal counsel Jenna Ellis, who said the GOP-led Michigan House would hold its hearing at 9 a.m. on Wednesday.
“We are grateful to Michigan House lawmakers for not rushing to certify inaccurate election results,” Ellis told Just the News. “We are confident they will share the same concerns once they see the extent of the outright fraud and disregard for the law that happened in Michigan and across the nation. Every American should want to know the truth.”
Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield, who over the weekend said he feared the state was heading toward a constitutional crisis, did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ruled Trump’s “motion for emergency expedited review is granted at the direction of the court.”
The campaign must file its initial brief by Monday afternoon, and the court said it “will advise if oral argument desired.”
The Trump campaign is appealing U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann’s decision Saturday to dismiss the campaign’s lawsuit seeking to throw out hundreds of thousands of votes in Pennsylvania on the grounds that Democratic-led counties made changes to voting that violated the equal protection clause of the Constitution.
Brann, an appointee of President Barack Obama, wrote that he “has no authority to take away the right to vote of even a single person, let alone millions of citizens.”
His ruling cleared the way for Pennsylvania officials to certify results. Ellis cheered the appeals court intervention.
“We are grateful to the Third Circuit for accepting an expedited review,” she said. “There was no legal reason to deny our amended complaint, other than pure politics and judicial activism. This was an Obama-appointed judge whose opinion was rife with errors. We hope the appellate court will recognize that and properly give us our day in court. The American people deserve for us be able to bring forward our witnesses and evidence showing election fraud — this is at the heart election integrity and fundamental fairness.”

Dominion CEO Admits In Testimony: Machines Rely On Chinese Parts From ‘Screen Interface Down To Chip Level’
By NATALIE WINTERS
November 23, 2020
The National Pulse
JOHN POULOS, THE CEO AND FOUNDER OF DOMINION VOTING SYSTEMS, TESTIFIED THAT HIS MACHINES ARE COMPOSED OF PARTS MANUFACTURED IN CHINA FROM THE “SCREEN ON THE INTERFACE DOWN TO THE CHIP COMPONENT LEVEL,” THE NATIONAL PULSE CAN REVEAL.
The comments came during Poulos’s sworn testimony before the House Administration Committee on January 9th, 2020.
The unearthed remarks boost claims that Dominion’s voting systems could have been influenced by a foreign actor – specifically the Biden-backing Chinese Communist Party.
Contained in the nearly three hour-long testimony, Poulos’s opening statement revealed how the company relies on parts manufactured in China for its voting machines.

https://www.c-span.org/video/standalone/?c4925222/user-clip-dominion-china
Poulos didn’t “know the exact percentage” of China-based parts used in his company’s machines:
“We do have components in our products that come from China and don’t know the exact percentage. I can certainly get that to the committee through my staff – happy to work with you on getting the exact number.”
Democratic Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren interrupted, inquiring “before you go forward, what are the components that are from China.”
Poulos then reveals that “the actual glass screen on the interface down to the chip component level of capacitors and resistors” are from China:
“Uh so, for example, LCD components, the actual glass screen on the interface down to the chip component level of capacitors and resistors, several of those components to our knowledge are not even – there’s no option for manufacturing of those in the United States. We would welcome guidelines and best practices from the committee and from the federal government in terms of this is not a problem that is unique to the industry.”
The comments follow Lofgren, who spearheaded President Trump’s impeachment inquiry for the Democrats, raising concerns about Chinese influence over voting machines:
“In December 2019, a study released by a supply chain monitoring company showed that one-fifth or 20 percent of components in a popular voting machine came from China-based companies. Furthermore, close to 59 percent of suppliers within that machine’s supply chain had locations in either China or Russia.”
Establishment media outlets, however, have insisted that claims of Dominion being subject to foreign influence are rooted in “baseless conspiracy.”
