[Forbes] On the morning of November 5, as the 2020 election hung in the balance, Arizona federal agents raided a two-story house in Fountain Hills, Maricopa County, a county that had become a key battleground in the presidential race. The agents were looking for evidence of a cyberattack on an unnamed organization and stolen voter data. They left with eight hard drives, three computers and a bag of USB sticks. The resident of the property, a 56-year-old IT expert named Elliot Kerwin, was served the warrant. He is not yet facing charges and was unreachable for comment at the time of publication. There is no indication that anything other than voters’ information, which can be acquired for a few hundred dollars in Arizona counties, was taken from the affected office.
The warrant, discovered by Forbes this week, reveals Sherlocks have been looking into a computer intrusion at an unnamed "victim office," which occurred from October 21 to November 4. At the Kerwin residence, they were looking for any evidence within the seized computers that showed they’d been used to access the IT network at the office, as well as "protected voters’ information" and any indication that it had been disseminated to other people.
Of the 15 county recorder’s offices contacted by Forbes about the investigation, only one, Maricopa County, confirmed voter data had been stolen, noting that a federal investigation was under way. The Maricopa County Recorder’s office, which is just 30 minutes’ drive south from Kerwin’s home, did not confirm whether or not the investigation was the same as that referred to in the search warrant.

How many years is it going to take before the Feebs conclude "no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case?" Investigation? More likely another cover-up job.

I have zero faith in our courts or legislatures to do the right thing. I have zero faith that they will fix this so it doesn't happen again. The only remaining question is, are there enough true americans left, or will the Great Experiment die quietly due to a lack of fortitude.
To be honest, I fear that the core of America has rotted sufficiently that they will allow Biden to steal this election and quietly take America out back and put two rounds in the back of it's head.

The House and Senate (Pubs) should be stomping mad, but they're obviously not, they're virtually silent. This inaction speak volumes. A pox on the lot.

Few peaceful remedies remain, but they will strike early to discourage the alternatives. All the baloney about white supremacy being the main threat is in anticipation of their seizing power and using that lie to move on the rebellion that they created.

[PostMillennial] President Donald Trump told a large crowd in Valdosta, Georgia, Saturday, that if they didn't vote for Sen. Kelly Loeffler and Sen. David Perdue in the upcoming Senate runoff that "the socialists and the communists win.”
"If you don’t vote, the socialists and the communists win. They win,” the President said.
"Georgia patriots must show up and vote for these two incredible people, and Im telling you they're two of the finest people you'll ever meet," he continued.
The pressure is on for Senators Loeffler and Perdue to hold the Senate for the GOP on January 5. Both spoke briefly during the Presidents event thanking the President for his support and further urging their supporters to get out and vote in January.
The President told his supporters, "if you want revenge on the Democrats, you show up and vote in RECORD numbers. That's what you have to do."
[EpochTimes] U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito asked officials in Pennsylvania to file briefs by the morning of Dec. 8 in response to an emergency injunction petition filed by Republicans seeking to invalidate or rescind the results of the Nov. 3 presidential election in the Keystone State.
That day is the "safe harbor" deadline that requires controversies surrounding elections to be ended, so states can choose their electors before the Dec. 14 meeting of the Electoral College. Alito initially called for response arguments by Dec. 9, before moving the due date earlier by a day.
The new deadline signals that the Supreme Court intends to rule on the request for the injunction before the safe harbor deadline runs out.

[EpochTimes] A U.S. voter rights group informed the Department of Justice on Dec. 3 of a link between the Nevada election emails system and a Pak company with ties to military and intelligence.
True the Vote requested the Nevada voter file from the secretary of state after the Nov. 3 election. The state responded with a voter file in an email, but the message was copied to Waqas Butt, CEO of Pak-based Kavtech Solutions Ltd.
In a letter (pdf) to Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Demers, Catherine Engelbrecht, president of True the Vote, wrote that she was shocked to discover the Pak address in the carbon copy field of the email.
"The fact that this company was cc’d on an email containing access to the Nevada voter registration database appears to be evidence of a breach within the Nevada Secretary of State’s email system," Engelbrecht wrote.
"Obviously, the problems that such a breach may evidence include access to at least the voter registration information of Nevada residents. At worst it could reveal a breach that gives a foreign power access to not only the State of Nevada’s systems, but also to the email systems of anyone whom the State communicates with via email."
True the Vote received the email in question on Nov. 29.
Kavtech Solutions Ltd. is based in Lahore, Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... Province, in Pakistain, according to the letter.
The office of the Georgia secretary of state didn’t respond to a request for comment.
According to its website, Kavtech specializes in data management, including for government clients. The company has also provided facial recognition software to three airports, data visualization services to a handful of clients, and developed more than 500 games. The website doesn’t appear to include any references to work with the Pak military and intelligence, as alleged in the letter. The company didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Trump campaign filed an election contest in Nevada on Nov. 17. A judge in the case dismissed the lawsuit and the campaign plans an appeal to the state’s Supreme Court. The lawsuit alleged that tens of thousands of votes were illegally cast, enough to invalidate the results. In an evidentiary hearing, Trump campaign attorneys said they have a witness who said that vote totals were inexplicably changed on USB drives overnight.
[AnNahar] U.S. President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... has made clear he had no intention of relinquishing his baseless claims that last month's election was stolen from him, telling a raucous crowd at his first post-poll rally he would somehow still win.
In a speech remarkable for its twisting of reality more than a month after the November 3 election, the outgoing president launched into another litany of allegations that the polls won handily by Democrat Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden

[JustTheNews] Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has more than 250 open investigations into voting irregularities in the 2020 election.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has more than 250 open investigations into voting irregularities in the 2020 election and has gotten approval to use the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to speed the resolution of those probes.
Gov. Brian Kemp approved the request for help on Friday, providing extra resources as Raffensperger's office also deals with two runoff elections slated for Jan. 5 that will determine which party controls the U.S. Senate.
In response to an open records request from The Georgia Star News for the forms, county officials wrote that "it has not yet been determined if responsive records to your request exist."
"DeKalb County and [the DeKalb County Department of Voting, Registration, and Election] VRE are currently operating within its COVID-19 Emergency Response Plan. These remote operations and VRE’s current workload greatly impact how soon responsive records can be provided," the response from the department stated.
"VRE is expected to make this determination within thirty business days."
The Georgia Star News requested the ballot forms from several counties; Cobb County and Cook County have complied with the request.
A spokesperson for Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told Breitbart News last week that the transfer forms are in the possession of individual counties.
Georgia election rules require ballots from drop boxes to be picked up by teams of at least two people, who must complete a transfer form upon doing so.
"The collection team shall complete and sign a ballot transfer form upon removing the ballots from the dropbox, which shall include the date, time, location, and number of ballots," the relevant rule states.
"The ballots from the drop box shall be immediately transported to the county registrar and processed and stored in the same manner as absentee ballots returned by mail are processed and stored. The county registrar or a designee thereof shall sign the ballot transfer form upon receipt of the ballots from the collection team."
Each of the drop boxes should have more than a dozen signed ballot transfer forms, given the frequency of the pickups required by the rules.
The Peach State first used absentee ballot drop boxes for its June 19 primary, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
In 2016 in DeKalb County, Crooked Hillary Clinton ...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away. Politix is not one of her talents, but it's something she keeps trying to do... received 251,370 votes and Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... received 51,468 votes. In 2020, unofficial results show former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...Failed seeker of the Democratic presidential nomination on multiple occasions, vice president under Barack Obama, giving it a last try in his dotage for 2020... with 308,102 votes and President Donald Trump with 58,361.
The Trump campaign filed an election contest in Georgia on Dec. 4, alleging that violations of the Constitution and state laws took place in the 2020 election.
The president held a rally in Georgia on Dec. 5, alleging that widespread fraud occurred in the state which could be remedied if the signatures on absentee ballot envelopes are verified.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp called on Raffensperger to order a signature audit after the release of video footage that appeared to show poll workers in Fulton County processing ballots in the middle of the night with no observers.
"I think it should be done," Kemp told Fox News. "I think especially with what we saw today, it raises more questions. There needs to be transparency on that."
[PJMedia] The Trump campaign is celebrating a huge legal victory after Circuit Judge Kevin Elsenheimer allowed Sherlocks to conduct a forensic examination of 22 Dominion voting machines used on Election Day in Antrim County, Michigan.
"Our team is going to be able to go in this morning at about 8:30 and will be there for about eight hours to conduct that forensic examination and we’ll have the results in about 48 hours, and that’ll tell us a lot about these machines," Trump election attorney Jenna Ellis told Fox News. The results of the examination will be available in 48 hours.
Rudy Giuliani called the order a "big win" for honest elections, though the legal challenge is actually not related to the presidential election. Judge Elsenheimer’s order stems from a challenge by a voter who claims that ballots were damaged during a recount of a village marijuana proposal that just barely passed. Antrim County infamously showed Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...Candidate for president in 2020. I had the great honor of being arrested with our UN Ambassador on the streets of Soweto, trying to get to see him on Robbens Island... as the winner of the county before a "human error" was discovered and Trump was revealed the true winner of the county by several thousand votes.
Lawsuits allege that nearly 300,000 votes were manipulated in Michigan. Dominion "is responsible for "the injection or fabrication, of 289,866 illegal votes in Michigan, that must be disregarded," says expert witness Russell Ramsland Jr.
