Donald Trump did not convince his supporters of The Big Lie – the one about how Trump won the 2020 presidential election but it was stolen from him by Democrats, Republicans, Never Trumpers, election officials, secretaries of state, election volunteers, Italy, a vote tabulating machine manufacturer, and the long-dead former president of Venezuela – all on his own. Instead, he had attorneys like Rudy Giuliani, Lin Wood, and Sydney Powell in his corner, making fools of themselves on television and filing frivolous lawsuits with no real evidence to support them whatsoever.
Bad news for Sidney Powell: After investigating a slew of complaints, the State Bar of Texas has determined she acted unethically by filing frivolous lawsuits to overturn the election. The state bar asked a judge to determine the appropriate discipline.https://t.co/VQVE4JeWlI

One of those attorneys, known for her promise to “release the Kraken” of information proving her argument that Trump actually won the election (she never did), is Sydney Powell. After it was determined in court that she unethically filed  multiple frivolous lawsuits about election irregularities, the Texas State Bar has requested that a judge determine sanctions against Powell.
The disciplinary petition filed in the 116th Judicial Court in Texas states that:
‘Beginning in or about November of 2020 Respondent filed multiple federal lawsuits…alleging, inter alia, election fraud had occurred in the national presidential election in 2020. Respondent had no reasonable basis to believe the lawsuits she filed were not frivolous…During the course of the lawsuits, [Powell] took positions that unreasonably increased the costs or other burdens ofthe cases and unreasonably delayed the resolution of the matters.’
Powell and the rest of her legal team was previously fined more than $175,000 for their participation in the filing of these lawsuits. Powell has called the lawsuit calling for her to be punished further by the courts “unfortunate.”
Twitter agreed that it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving person and hoped, overwhelmingly, that she would be disbarred for her actions. Read some of their comments below:
