Reporting for the New York Times on December 21, journalist Jeremy Peters explains, "On November 30, 2020, Sean Hannity hosted Sidney Powell on his prime-time Fox News program. As she had in many other interviews around that time — on Fox and elsewhere in right-wing media — Ms. Powell, a former federal prosecutor, spun wild conspiracy theories about what she said was 'corruption all across the country, in countless districts,' in a plot to steal reelection from the president, Donald J. Trump. At the center of this imagined plot were machines from Dominion Voting Systems, which Ms. Powell claimed ran an algorithm that switched votes for Mr. Trump to votes for Joseph R. Biden Jr. Dominion machines, she insisted, were being used 'to trash large batches of votes.'"

But when Hannity gave a deposition two years later on Wednesday, December 21, 2022 and was under oath, he admitted, "I did not believe it for one second."
