1. Sounds to me like she just confessed to both intentional libel and slander.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

4. Not to mention admitting she lied in official court documents (nt)

[hlthe2b]

10. Yes, indeed.

Finding a way to assert temporary non-compos mentis may be her best defense.

2. Sidney Powell Admitting Her Lies?

So she’s lying but not lying?

She’s such a weirdo.

3. Good Luck With That, Syd!

Admitting something was so beyond fact that it means it's not defamatory seems desperate.
I'm no lawyer, but this seems closer to self-incrimination than it is to a defense.

8. I wonder if she's going for the Larry Flynt defense here in a semi-roundabout way

Sounds almost like she's claiming it was satire.

While at the same time having presented it as an argument in official court documents as 'evidence'.

This should be interesting

[ProfessorGAC]

12. That Ought To Please The Judges...

...in whose courts she performed her "satire".
I'm sure they love that sort of courtroom performance!

[Hugh_Lebowski]

14. IIRC this case was laughed out of court, don't think she busted out her performance art in the court

But she did put it in her filing.

And I'd be certain they weren't amused then, and they're even less amused now

5. Who would believe it? How about the thousands of people who stormed the capitol

Looking to find and hang Mike Pence, and Pelosi. This poor excuse for a human needs to go down. This shit has to stop. You don't get to go around lying hysterically and then say never mind. This person shouldn't be allowed to practice law in any state ever again. She is suddenly worried about standing, that didn't matter to her when reps from other states were putting their nose in Georgia, and Arizona and Wisconsin to try to overturn the results in states they don't even represent.

[ProfessorGAC]

13. Well, She Did Say "Reasonable Person"

None of those seditious criminals on 1/6 have demonstrated they're reasonable people!

[sinkingfeeling]

6. You mean she lied in a lawsuit presented to a federal court?

[Volaris]

26. Ya but dont worry about that lol...

See since no REASONABLE person would believe the bullshit she originally filed with the court, all the Unreasonable things she said there cant be used against her since shes an unreasonable person to begin with (even tho NOW she doesnt believe any of that silly nonsense).

And so it follows that the people following her are the ones being unreasonable. So this should all go away.

See?
SEE?
Dont you SEE??

WHY DONT YOU SEE AND AGREE WITH ME, MR FEDERAL JUDGE?

[TreasonousBastard]

7. Preparing for an insanity defense?

[rsdsharp]

9. I don't think she is going to win on this theory, but

she has just admitted to multiple ethics violations. She may well be saying goodbye to her license.

[jcgoldie]

11. I suppose thats all true...

...The problem is 74 million or so unreasonable people...

15. Mike Dunford's take

Replying to @questauthority
For those keeping score, the defense now claims both that the case must be dismissed because no reasonable person would believe that the claims are statements of fact and that it must be dismissed because Powell believes the things she said are facts.

I do believe that Sidney Powell has just moved to dismiss Dominion's case against her because she believes things that she believes no reasonable person would believe.

(OMG, does the Q in Queen stand for QAnon??)

16. Caveat Iudex. A novel defense strategy.

[Dem_in_Nebr.]

21. Caveat Insanis more like it

[applegrove]

17. Bannon said in a speech before the election Powell would be made head of the FBI

if Trump won.

[ashredux]

18. How do such stupid people pass the bar?

[DallasNE]

19. So Does That Mean

That Trump supporters are not reasonable people? Where else does that leave Trump people that swear what she said is true since no reasonable person would believe her lies. Asking for a friend.

[Catherine Vincent]

20. Dominion should not drop their suit

Don't let her weasel her way out

[monkeyman1]

22. ol' rudy up next !

[SeattleVet]

23. She's an officer of the court, and this should be grounds for disbarment.

"I was just kidding" isn't a good defense for this case, and as a lawyer (allegedly) she should know better.

[kskiska]

24. Reminds me of this old song

"How could you believe me when I said I love you
When you know I've been a liar all my life"

[Volaris]

25. She fuck8ng filed that argument in an official goddamn court document..

Now shes saying 'na..I know that was all bullshit (but, obviously don't hold ME accountable for not knowing that when I filed it).

No, bitch, pretty sure thate not actually how this works.

I seriously hope the court finds her in contempt for this.

[Volaris]

27. And dominion thought this was gonna cost them regular lawyers fees hahahhaa..

Pretty cheap when the defense cops to the basic accusation for why you're suing them in the first place haha.

[honest.abe]

29. Her argument that "No reasonable person..." wont fly.

The vast majority of the Republican party believed her claims. Furthermore if she was aware her claims were bogus hyperbole then why did she file legal claims in the courts?? That has to be abuse of the legal system. She should lose her law license.
