The woman who claims to be a headless time traveling entity that gets messages from the wind, admitted in an interview with The Daily Beast that she is “crazy,” yet her bizarre claims of widespread election fraud led to a billion dollar defamation lawsuit against Fox News by Dominion Voting Systems.
Marlene Bourne, a Minnesota based artist making what she calls “cactus art” told the Daily Beast that she gets her ideas from several sources, including hidden messages in movies, songs on the radio, and from listening to conversations at the supermarket.
“It’s just really interesting where I’ll have the TV on, and I’ll hear a word or a person’s name, and for whatever reason I can’t explain it, it’s going to compel me to look it up online, I’ll do a little digging,” she said. “Instead of saying I rely on my intuition, I say ‘the wind’ is talking to me. It’s just a fun way of living my life, don’t you think?”
In November 2020, Bourne said she was “on a roll” and felt compelled to send Powell an email to “steer her in the right direction” after the major networks projected Biden as the winner of the election.
In her email, Bourne claims Dominion’s algorithm flipped votes from Donald Trump to Joe Biden and described herself as “internally decapitated” and capable of “time travel in a semi-conscious state.”
As to how she came by this information, Bourne explained in the email: “Who am I? And how do I know all of this?…I’ve had the strangest dreams since I was a little girl….I was internally decapitated, and yet, I live….The Wind tells me I’m a ghost, but I don’t believe it.”
Within an hour after receiving the email Powell forwarded it to Fox News host Maria Bartiromo who thanked the lawyer for providing them with this “very imp[ortant]” information.
Powell appeared on Bartiromo’s show, Sunday Morning Futures, on Nov. 8 where she repeated several of Bourne’s bizarre claims. She told Bartiromo that Dominion’s software had an “algorithm” used as part of a “massive and coordinated effort to steal this election.”
The email was included in court filings from Dominion as part of the company’s $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox Corp.
According to the Daily Beast, Bourne had no idea her email was a key piece of evidence in the case since she does not watch any major news networks because they are “psyops” carried out by evil forces as part of a “mass global unconventional warfare” to divide Americans.
Still, she is not surprised.
“My point of view sometimes is so far outside the box it’s not even on the same playing field, it’s not even on the same planet,” she said.
