Sidney Powell's 'Kraken' Voter Fraud Lawsuits Ridiculed by Legal Experts Over Typos, Lack of Evidence

President Donald Trump reportedly discussed appointing controversial lawyer Sidney Powell a special counsel to investigate voter fraud, according to the New York Times.

Powell has been a staple in the news following the election because she made numerous unsubstantiated allegations of voter fraud, including, as the Times reported, disseminating "conspiracy theories about a Venezuelan plot to rig voting machines in the United States."

However, Trump's closest advisers voiced opposition to such a move. From the Times:

Most of his advisers opposed the idea, two of the people briefed on the discussion said, including Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president's personal lawyer, who in recent days sought to have the Department of Homeland Security join the campaign's efforts to overturn Mr. Trump's loss in the election.

Mr. Giuliani joined the discussion by phone, while Ms. Powell was at the White House for a meeting that became raucous at times, according to one of the people briefed on what took place. Other administration officials drifted in and out of the meeting, two of the people briefed said, and the White House counsel, Pat A. Cipollone, pushed back on the ideas being proposed.

The report said it's not clear how Trump will proceed, adding that Powell described some of Trump's advisers as "quitters."

The development is surprising given that Trump's campaign distanced themselves from Powell, releasing a statement in late November saying that Powell was, in fact, not a member of the campaign's legal team despite having appeared at press conferences with the campaign's leading attorneys.

"Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own," the Trump campaign said. "She is not a member of the Trump Legal Team. She is also not a lawyer for the President in his personal capacity."
