Sidney Powell pushes claims that 2020 election was rigged and prosecutors 'extorted' her after she pleaded guilty to election interference
businessinsider.com
Sidney Powell may have pleaded guilty to interfering in the 2020 presidential election, but she still seems to think President Joe Biden's victory was illegitimate.
On her social media accounts, Powell has continued to push claims that the 2020 election was rigged and that prosecutors in Georgia who brought the criminal case against her are politically motivated. The newsletter published by her dark money group has shared articles arguing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis "extorted" her guilty plea.

5 years hard time served before the board flirts with parole. 5 hard years before the governor can even entertain a pardon.
Rats in a sinking ship.
As more people flip, and Trump's chances of re-election (and pardons) fade, this is an... interesting choice to make. I suppose they'll just run the "freeze peach, I'm the victim, this is what the communists want to do to you" playbook.
By the time she's out of prison, the magats will have moved on, but she'll always have her book deal residuals from the semi-literate idiots that buy the grift.
The gamble is that little d gets re-elected (or otherwise comes back into power) and these people will exact vengeance on anyone doing their jobs properly.
Sure, but they're making these moves as the chances of him regaining power continue to shrink. They had a deal, and they're blowing that up for the chance of a pardon from a person that'll almost certainly be barred from running.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it would require a constitutional amendment for a felonious Trump to be re-elected, no?
If the book deals are about the crime she committed, she'll be losing that money as well. Just ask OJ.
Or Jordan Belfort
...wait
Is a book deal worth more than a career in law? She doesn't have to be very good at math to see this is stupid.
It is if you're a bad lawyer, I guess.
Ask Jordan Peterson, I guess... Though the Russian induced coma to get him over his crippling benzo addiction clearly cooked his brain to the point that he couldn't maintain a professional veneer over his quackery any longer, making a continued career in psychology unlikely.
His brain damage is now an asset, given his current audience.
It's illegal to profit from your personally convicted crimes.
So bank robbers and other desperate citizens can't sell their stories to Hollywood.
Even better that the cruel, inhumane and depraved, like rapists, serial killers, insurance salesman, claim adjusters and every job on wall street can't do the same either.
I'm not being extreme either. Jesus forgave Pontus Pilate and the Romans for his murder, you know who he didn't forgive? Who he absolutely lost his shit for? The bankers. Theyve all got blood on their hands.
While true, the laws need to be enforced to have any meaning. I'm pretty sure Jordan Belfort is doing a pretty good job of profiting from crimes he was convicted of.
