Time to reminisce....

Lawyer Sidney Powell - who was until recently part of Donald Trump's legal team and is now acting independently - has described the case she was mounting as a "Kraken" that, when released, would destroy the case for Democrat Joe Biden having won the US presidency.

Ms Powell has claimed Joe Biden won the election because of "communist money"

However, once the documents, almost 200 pages of them, were released, it became clear they consisted predominantly of conspiracy theories and unfounded allegations that have already been widely debunked.
Some of these claims have already been rejected in court cases, while others - such as accusations that voting machines are part of a plot originating under former Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez - are not backed up with any credible evidence.

Ms Powell did not respond to a BBC request for comment.

Rudy Giuliani and Eric Trump launch furious attack on US democracy and promise wave of lawsuits to stop Biden
Former New York mayor asks: ‘Do you think we’re stupid? Do you think we’re fools?'
Madeline RothThursday 05 November 2020 05:00

Members of the Trump campaign, including Eric Trump and Rudy Giuliani, held a press conference in Philadelphia on Wednesday afternoon in which they claimed Donald Trump has not only won the state of Pennsylvania, but the entire US presidential election.

Eric Trump spoke first, alleging that Democrats were trying to “cheat” by committing mass voter fraud and vowing to file a lawsuit to halt vote-counting in Pennsylvania.

“We're going to win Pennsylvania, but they're trying to cheat us out of it because they know it's their only path to victory,” he said. “We are going to file a suit in Pennsylvania. It is the last thing that we wanted to do, it's the last thing my father wanted to do. But this is rampant corruption. It can’t happen. It’s not fair. This isn’t democracy.”

Eric Trump then introduced Mr Giuliani, who he said was "leading the legal effort" on behalf of the Trump campaign. The former New York City mayor fired off a litany of criticism aimed at Joe Biden and Democrats.

"This is beyond anything I have ever seen before," Mr Giuliani told the crowd of Trump supporters. "Do you think we're stupid? Do you think we're fools? You know something, Democrats do think you're stupid. And they do think you're fools. That's why you get called 'deplorable' and 'chumps.'"

He continued, "We're going to stick with this. We're going to win this election. We've actually won it.”

2016:

Trump’s Bogus Voter Fraud Claims
By Robert Farley
Posted on October 19, 2016

Donald Trump is citing unsubstantiated urban myths and a contested academic study to paint a false narrative about rampant voter fraud in the U.S. and the likelihood of a “rigged” election.

  • Trump claimed “people that have died 10 years ago are still voting,” citing a report that found 1.8 million deceased people remain on voter registration rolls. But the report did not find evidence of wrongdoing, and numerous studies have found such voter fraud is virtually nonexistent.
  • Trump claimed there is a massive problem with “illegal immigrants [who] are voting,” citing research by Old Dominion professors who say noncitizen voters may have benefited Democrats in 2008. But a Harvard professor who manages the data used in the Old Dominion study said the data was misused and the study’s conclusions are wrong.
  • Finally, Trump broadly claimed that “voter fraud is very, very common,” and he has called for poll watchers to look for people impersonating voters or voting numerous times. However, numerous academic studies and government inquiries have found in-person voter fraud to be rare.
For weeks, Trump has been warning about rigged elections. He urged his supporters in Ambridge, Pennsylvania, on Oct. 10 to monitor polls and “watch other communities, because we don’t want this election stolen from us.”

In a speech in Wisconsin on Oct. 17, Trump provided some detail and purported evidence to back up his claims about the prevalence of voter fraud, particularly by noncitizens and people casting ballots on behalf of deceased voters. But we found that his evidence is lacking.
