Sidney Powell has agreed to plea guilty for her efforts to overturn the 2020 election, but that doesn't mean she's going to flip on Trump.

Prosecution wouldn't offer a plea deal unless she had information to offer.

It's not the prosecution saying "ok, you speak the truth and we cut you a deal." It's the defendant's lawyer coming to the prosecution and saying "here is what she has to offer and if she says anything but this you can revoke the deal."

The current MAGA line is that the prosecution didn't have any evidence to back up their case, so to save their reputation they offered the plea deal.
