Since there is an edit lock (understandable) please fix the typo near the end of her “charges” section. Testimony is misspelled. Makes it look a bit unprofessional. Thanks. 59.168.195.35 (talk) 19:44, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Done. Thanks for pointing it out. Cullen328 (talk) 19:47, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This sentence in the fourth paragraph of the lead doesn't seem to flow with the preceding paragraph or the next sentence in the fourth paragraph:

"Powell claimed that Flynn was framed by a covert "deep state" operation, and has promoted personalities and slogans associated with the QAnon conspiracy theory."

I am new to this article . . . the flow just doesn't seem to work here.

Overall the lead section seems too long and doesn't flow well. Utahredrock (talk) 03:04, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I just tried to unscramble it. Didn't change much wording, mainly moved sentences around. YoPienso (talk) 06:38, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Too many details are in the lead. Nothing about James Brown is in the body. Lots of work to do here, but I don't have the time. YoPienso (talk) 14:22, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Fifth District of Texas Court of Appeals in Dallas, led by a three-judge panel, all Democrats, concluded that the State Bar of Texas’ arguments were without merit.

I don't think it's appropriate that Sydney Powell redirects here. Sydney Powell is in the news right now for appealing her conviction for stabbing her mother to death.[1] I suspect most people searching on "Sydney Powell" are looking for the murderer, not the attorney.
