During his Davos speech, President Trump claimed that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was "rigged" and asserted that individuals will soon be prosecuted for their involvement. The discussion notes that Attorney General Pam Bondi is expected to follow the president's directives regarding these potential legal actions. The mention of "The Kraken" lawyer Sidney Powell suggests a return to election-related litigation as the administration moves toward the midterm elections.

### Scott Adams, The Kraken and Election Simplification

- **Episode:** [1309: Vaxsaline](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1309-vaxsaline.md)
- **Published:** 2024-03-07

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1309-vaxsaline/chapter/scott-adams-the-kraken-and-election-simplification.md

Scott Adams argues that the complex allegations of voter fraud can be simplified into one question: is there ever a non-hacked reason for a cumulative vote count to turn negative? Adams claims that testimony showing Trump's count decreasing while Biden's increased by the exact same amount is the "Kraken" that could nullify the election. He suggests that if this evidence is presented correctly, the election results would be void.

Jesse Powell, CEO of the crypto exchange Kraken, has offered a four-month severance package to any employees who are "triggered" by the company's culture or mission.

A speculative scenario is presented involving the "release of the Kraken," which is theorized to be a flood of truth-telling videos from prominent figures. The most extreme version of this theory suggests Jeffrey Epstein is still alive and will testify about global corruption. This is cited as a potential reason for recent mass deplatforming efforts.

The hosts reflect on the failure of the "Kraken" legal strategy and the lack of evidence produced by Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani. One host admits to being "hoodwinked" by sincere sources with intelligence backgrounds who promised proof of ballot tracking. They resolve to move away from these theories and focus on deconstructing the "Build Back Better" agenda.

The Trump legal team issued a statement clarifying that Sidney Powell is not a member of the official campaign legal team. The hosts explore theories that Powell is operating independently as a "military lawyer" to prepare for treason trials and tribunals. They contrast this with the mainstream media's portrayal of her as a conspiracy theorist who was "fired" by Rudy Giuliani.

Late-night host Jimmy Fallon and CNN's Jim Acosta are highlighted for their efforts to marginalize Sidney Powell by mocking her claims about Hugo Chavez. The hosts argue that the intense media effort to paint Powell as "crazy" suggests her evidence regarding Dominion Voting Systems and weighted algorithms may be more significant than reported.

During a hearing in Pennsylvania, witnesses described massive "spikes" in vote totals that overwhelmingly favored Joe Biden. The hosts also define "The Kraken" as an actual military surveillance and force protection system used by the Army. They speculate that Sidney Powell's use of the term refers to a cyber-intelligence operation that has been monitoring election interference in real-time.
