This would be a lot more tinfoilesque were a court case on the matter not already underway in New York.

The missing votes uncovered in Smart Elections’ legal case in Rockland County, New York, are just the tip of the iceberg—an iceberg that extends across the swing states and into Texas.

On Monday, an investigator’s story finally hit the news cycle: Pro V&V, one of only two federally accredited testing labs, approved sweeping last-minute updates to ES&S voting machines in the months leading up to the 2024 election—without independent testing, public disclosure, or full certification review.

These changes were labeled “de minimis”—a term meant for trivial tweaks. But they touched ballot scanners, altered reporting software, and modified audit files—yet were all rubber-stamped with no oversight.

That revelation is a shock to the public.

But for those who’ve been digging into the bizarre election data since November, this isn’t the headline—it’s the final piece to the puzzle. While Pro V&V was quietly updating equipment in plain sight, a parallel operation was unfolding behind the curtain—between tech giants and Donald Trump.

There is basically zero actual evidence here. The argument basically goes "this could've happened, then this other thing could've happened, then a third thing could've happened, someone said something vaguely ominous in a group chat, and then something we all know is impossible happened: Donald Trump was elected President despite being obviously bad. There's only one conclusion: the election was stolen and now we just need to track it down." Read the article again and try to pick out the things that are shown to have actually happened and weren't just suspicions or possibilities.

It doesn't hold up for the same reasons the 2020 doubts didn't hold up. Did they do this in every state? Because the results were pretty uniform across the country, it was a big swing right. It'd be the biggest and most successful conspiracy in history, getting away with rigging a wide variety of completely separate voting systems, many of which are heavily or entirely paper-based, many of which are run by blue states or weren't even competitive, with no leaks and no discrepancies in any of the public records.

Or, maybe, just maybe, Biden was incredibly unpopular and Kamala didn't run a good campaign, while Donald "I'll fix everything and everyone will be rich" Trump promised to take action and not just continue the same policies for another four years, so people gave him another shot. "Oh, but he had felonies! Surely the electorate would never!" Yeah, they would. We elect terrible people all the time. He won. This isn't productive.

Of course they cheated, that's MAGA'S entire brand. If they were absolutely sure that they'd win by an enormous margin, they'd STILL cheat.

The Dems have been trying to sell the concept that there were millions of people in swing states that voted straight Democratic tickets, except HitlerPig at the top.

Where are these people? I'm sure there were a few, but they are as rare as white squirrels. I have NEVER heard a single person claim to have voted Democratic except for HitlerPig, and I have never seen one speak in the media. There are supposed to be millions of them, so show me just one.

It's a silly idea. Of course they cheated. I'd be more surprised if it were proven they didn't cheat.

Okay, so where's the massive exit poll discrepancy between who voters say they voted for and the official results? That would be a red flag worth paying attention to, if it showed inconsistent results between down ballot and top line races but only in states that used these supposedly compromised voting machines.

Polls are meaningless.

I want proof. There are supposed to be MILLIONS of these people. Show me five. Show me one.

Even if they could trot out a few, they couldn't be trusted. There is no proof of how they voted, other than their word, and the word of any Trumper is worthless.
