Sidney Powell peddled conspiracy theories and promised to "blow up" Georgia with a "biblical" lawsuit.

The Trump campaign has distanced itself from a lawyer who made dramatic claims of voter fraud at several media events.
Sidney Powell claimed without evidence last week that electronic voting systems had switched millions of votes to President-elect Joe Biden, and said he won due to "communist money".
President Trump has refused to concede the election, making unsubstantiated claims of widespread electoral fraud.
Mr Biden won the US presidential election by a significant margin.
He is projected to win 306 votes in the US electoral college, which determines who becomes president - far above the 270 needed to win.
On Sunday, the Trump campaign issued a statement saying Ms Powell was "practising law on her own" and was "not a member of the Trump legal team".
"She is not a member of the Trump legal team. She is also not a lawyer for the president in his personal capacity,"
Trump's team have more judgment than the president.
