The Stop The Steal Disinformation Campaign Crumbles

Remember when some of you shared Sidney Powell's wild claims that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump as part of an international plot?

So now that Sidney Powell is facing a $1.3 billion dollar lawsuit, after accusing Dominion and Smartmatic voting technology of rigging the election, she is now backtracking her statements.

I remember when she claimed to have explosive bombshells and promised to release The Kraken.

[ Sidney Powell argued yesterday that she couldn’t be sued for defamation for repeatedly promoting false conspiracy theories about the 2020 election being rigged because “no reasonable person would” believe that her comments “were truly statements of fact.”  - Buzzfeednews. ]

Let me translate what she said: Sidney Powell wants the lawsuits tossed on the grounds that nobody with half a brain could have taken what she was saying as fact. What she said was too stupid to be believable. 

Methinks Sidney Powell just called Republicans and Trump supporters stupid. She should be indicted, tried, and disbarred. 

[ Sidney Powell's defense: "Everything I said about Dominion was bullshit. If you believed anything I said, you're an idiot." - Joe Walsh ]

Still Searching For Intelligent Life

I don't understand our obsession with the planet Mars. Everywhere I look, there is an article about the latest mission of a multibillion dollar Perseverance Rover vehicle off-roading on Mars.

Perseverance Rover landed on Mars back on February 18, 2021. Scientists are going gaga with the images this spacecraft is sending back.

Funny, we have the money and technology to send a vehicle into outer space, but not enough money to fix the potholes on our local streets, feed the hungry and house the homeless.

There is no excuse for children to go hungry in this country. Yet it happens, every day, in every community.
