Dominion doesn't intend to settle, showing the case is about more than money.

"We feel that it's important for the entire electoral process," Poulos told Emma Brown in an interview. "The allegations, I know they were lobbed against us ... but the impacts go so far beyond us."

That includes threats against his employees. The company said in the lawsuit it has spent more than half a million dollars on security for its personnel who have faced death threats and other harassment since the election. Trump and his allies' rhetoric around election fraud incited a deadly riot at the Capitol last week, leading to the death of five people.

"The spread of her claims, and the damage that Dominion is alleging, expose Powell to potentially massive liability. But I don't think that is what is driving Dominion to prefer a trial over settlement," said Ari Cohn, a free speech and defamation lawyer who is an adjunct fellow at Tech Freedom.

"If I had to guess I would say that [Poulos] wants a very public vindication with a ruling establishing that Sidney Powell defamed them and that her statements were baseless," said Cohn. "That's not something you generally get in a settlement agreement."

The lawsuit turns the table on Powell, who has brought numerous unsuccessful cases trying to overturn the election. The cases leaned heavily on false claims about Dominion despite mountains of evidence disproving them.

"This is about finding a venue to make the affirmative case for the election system," Rosenzweig told me. "Everything so far has been the negative -- Republicans and Trump yelling and screaming and fraud because they can't prove their case. I think Dominion is looking for place to prove they are secure."

(Rosenzweig noted the caveat that no election machines are 100 percent secure.)

Al meer dan een jaar geleden hoorde ik iemand betogen dat de grootste les die we van Trump kunnen leren is dat je nooit meer ergens zomaar vanuit mag gaan. Ongeschreven regels moeten geschreven regels en wetten worden. Ga nooit uit van het goede en van hoe het hoort te gaan, maar leg alles vast.

Trump says he is the 'most transparent president' in US history

quote:

In a live webcast Tuesday evening, Rep. Mikie Sherrill, D-11, made a startling claim that some members of Congress led groups of people through the Capitol Building on a "reconnaissance" tour one day before the riot that laid a deadly siege on the government's legislative branch.

During the Facebook Live, Sherrill, a Montclair resident, addressed her constituents to explain why she voted for a resolution to implore Vice President Mike Pence to remove President Donald Trump from office by invoking the 25th Amendment, and, after that measures foreseen failure, why she intends to support an article of impeachment against Trump for "incitement of insurrection."


But after laying out her many reasons for seeking Trump's removal, she set her sights on congressional colleagues who, she said, abetted his attempt to overturn the results of the election and undermine democracy through a violent mob.

"I'm going to see they are held accountable, and if necessary, ensure that they don't serve in Congress," she said, speaking sedately, but severely.

Sherrill did not specify whether the "groups" were visibly staunch adherents of President Trump's, nor did she detail what she described as "a reconnaissance," a term that hearkens back to Sherrill's prior military service and refers to an exploratory mission for the purpose of gaining enemy information.

Haha ja gek eigenlijk dat je er sarcastisch over bent. Triest toch?

Ik bedoel.. het is echt pure blinde haat richting een landgenoot. Onwerkelijk eigenlijk..

quote:

In November — as President Trump began his effort to overturn the election he had lost — his longtime friend Tom Barrack called him with advice: Stop, for the sake of your business.

The Trump Organization was already struggling, hurt by political backlash and coronavirus-related closures, facing huge unpaid loans. Barrack told Trump that he could help that business — as well as his aides, and the country itself — by ensuring a peaceful transition, according to a person familiar with the conversation.

An “elegant” exit, Barrack said, could preclude what could be a painful future: millions of dollars in legal costs, rampant investigations and more boycotts of his businesses.

Trump did not follow Barrack’s advice.

Ik denk dat je nu iets te optimistisch bent.
Ik begrijp niet waarom ze die inauguratie niet op een geheime locatie doen. Het is niet dat er met covid19 veel publiek bij aanwezig mag zijn. Jammer dan voor Biden, maar wel zo veilig voor iedereen.
