Sidney Powell was scheduled to stand trial on Monday along with co-defendant and former Trump campaign lawyer Kenneth Chesbrough.

It has also become an Internet meme representing a broad, unsubstantiated set of claims purporting to outline a case of massive fraud in the US presidential election.

‘Kraken’ lawyer

Lawyer Sidney Powell — who was recently part of Donald Trump‘s legal team and now works independently — has described the case as a “cracker” of Democrat Joe Biden’s when he was released. So it will destroy the case for winning the US presidency.
However, once the documents, some 200 pages of them, were released, it became clear that they consisted mainly of conspiracy theories and baseless allegations that have already been largely debunked…

Some of these claims have already been rejected in court cases, while others – such as allegations that the voting machines are part of a conspiracy that began under former Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez – are without any credible evidence. Not backed up.
Ms. Powell is closely followed by proponents of the QAnon conspiracy theory, who believe that President Trump is secretly fighting deep-state domination of Satan-worshipping pedophiles in the Democratic Party, the media, business, and Hollywood.

Many in the movement believe President Trump will be inaugurated for a second term on January 20, even though he lost the election.

From appearing on popular QAnon-related online shows, engaging with and retweeting QAnon influencers, or using QAnon phrases in her tweets, Ms. Powell has positioned herself among her followers as a Favorited.
The social media conversation about the Kraken is as polarized as the current state of American politics.

Many of the posts appear to be from QAnon and Trump supporters, who believe the documents released by Ms. Powell are evidence of widespread election fraud, while opponents have dismissed them as poor spelling and a lack of concrete evidence. Made fun of.

On Twitter, there have been nearly 100,000 tweets about the Kraken in the past 48 hours.
