They are such a great buy that it’s like you are _stealing_ them from us. We wouldn’t let you get away with it if we didn’t think you deserved to steal something as a reward for owning the libs. ---

The fake tweet from Nancy Pelosi is a nice touch. ---

The really shocking part is that they used a fairly realistic image of Trump on the coin, they didn’t seem to touch up his saggy chin and jowls, like so many of them do when drawing Trump. ---

If only there was a way to make the senate republicans, who ordered the thing, pony up. While non-recreational outrage at the cost is certainly warranted, a large part (I’m not up to researching the details, if such figures are even available) came from well-heeled Trump supporters. _And they didn’t get what they paid for._ We’ll probably never know the consequences, but at the very least CyberNincompoops have some serious ‘splainin’ to do. ---

**[Ex-Trump Campaign Lawyer Powell Sues Voting Firm for Suing Her](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-09-25/ex-trump-campaign-lawyer-powell-sues-voting-firm-for-suing-her)** > Former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell sued the voting-technology company she falsely accused of rigging the 2020 presidential election, accusing it of trashing her reputation by taking her to court. > Powell, in a series of counterclaims filed late Friday against [Dominion Voting Systems Inc.](https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/1045239D:US), claimed the company’s earlier [$1.3 billion](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-08/sidney-powell-sued-by-dominion-voting-over-election-fraud-claims) defamation suit against her was a “ludicrous” abuse of the legal system intended to intimidate her for speaking out. She’s seeking at least $10 million in damages. … > Dominion’s motive in suing was “diverting attention from the failings of its election equipment, trying to change the ‘narrative’ that was exposing Dominion’s serious flaws and wrongdoing, and avoiding post-election inquiry into voting irregularities in the 2020 election,” Powell said in the filing. > Powell has [never provided](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-02-26/conservative-lawyers-seek-billions-from-giuliani-powell-over-election-claims) evidence of such failings or irregularities, and state election officials have rejected the allegations. … > Powell, an outspoken Trump supporter, may have a hard time convincing the Washington judge overseeing the case that Dominion’s lawsuit is improper. The judge in August denied Powell’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit, criticizing her for depending on unreliable “expert witnesses” and anonymous affidavits to back her conspiracy. Who’s losing more money trying to make want they want to be true true, Powell or Lindell? ---
