Earlier on November 30, Powell appeared on Sean Hannity's radio show where she said that there was a CIA plot to steal the election from Trump, and also on Lou Dobbs Tonight, where the eponymous host called for the president to take �drastic action.�
As CNN's Oliver Darcy pointed out, this is all a bit ironic considering that Powell's feud with Fox host Tucker Carlson led to some other wild claims.
Despite occasional criticism like from Carlson, Powell has gotten widespread support from pro-Trump media since pushing deranged conspiracy theories about election results.
