(34,059 posts)3. From a defamation case, in which the plaintiffs have to prove Powell made statements of fact,

From an article quoting a filing in the deposition case:
No reasonable person would conclude that the statements were truly statements of fact, Powell's attorneys said in a court filing defending her against a billion-dollar defamation lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems, the manufacturer of the election equipment she claimed was involved in the conspiracy to steal the election.
