sanctions effortSidney Powell's defense in the $1.3 billion Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit is being used against her in a court case over unsubstantiated claims of election fraud in the 2020 presidential race.
Powell, an attorney who became widely known after filing multiple lawsuits and floating conspiracy theories about 2020 election fraud, claimed "no reasonable person would conclude that the statements were truly statements of fact" in her defense against a defamation lawsuit brought by election-technology company Dominion.
Now, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel says Powell's statement is another reason a federal court should approve sanctions against her, Forbes first reported, citing a legal filing.
Powell "made a series of stunning admissions," in the Dominion lawsuit that addressed statements about election fraud, "many of which also were made to this Court," the filing said.

everything that's coming to her. The damage she has helped to create and spread will be with us as a nation for a long, long time. She deserves any punishment she gets.

She is the kind of person that gives our legal system a bad name.
