Sidney Powell, the headline-grabbing attorney who was seemingly part of President Donald Trump's legal team, responded late Sunday to the Trump campaign's statement that she was, in fact, never a member of the campaign's legal team.
In a shock move late Sunday, Trump campaign senior legal adviser Jenna Ellis and Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani released a statement that said:
Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own. She is not a member of the Trump Legal Team. She is also not a lawyer for the President in his personal capacity.
The announcement was, of course, surprising given that Powell appeared at a press conference last week with Trump's legal team during which she claimed widespread voter fraud had occurred through voting software. Powell was even identified on TV as a member of Trump's legal team.
