from Fox fukkin news. I believe it, this shyt is crazy
Of course they cheated, rethug-licans have been projecting since 2019 because THEY been attempting to rig the election and they finally succeeded. I wasn't shocked trump won tbh but I was surprised by the margin. Even had one particular credible presidential predictor that's accurately picked the winning president since Regan lose this prediction with Kamala/Trump.
So that also indicates some suspicious activities. Elon is the richest man in the world and owns twitter to push all kinds of propaganda. Who knows if cac used millions upon millions to buy a good 100k+ worth of votes some how. Or paid mofos to not count votes in particular counties.
He's a multi-billionare and we know this system is corrupt as is so anything is possible

i'm starting to believe they did fukk with these machines man. see how nobody opposed or refused to certify results, because it was a "landslide victory" these CACs were bold this time
Fox affiliates aren't necessarily fox news.
my nikka have you ever watched a fox affiliate? they are most certainly biased*, they got the same slant
Nah let’s not do this. Americans are just that dumb dawg. It hurts me to admit it.
They did it once, and then did it again.
Didn’t help democrats had an all time unpopular candidates running mate as the candidate.
It is what it is.

If not for the mass purge of voters of color, and the mass disqualification of provisional and mail-in ballots, if not for the new mass vigilante challenges in swing states, Harris would have gained at least another 3,565,000 votes, topping Trump’s official tally by 1.2 million.

As in Bush v. Gore in 2000, and in too many other miscarriages of Democracy, this election was determined by good old “vote suppression,” the polite term we use for shafting people of color out of their ballot. We used to call it Jim Crow. Trump Lost. Vote Suppression Won.

In 2024, after an avalanche of new not-going-to-let-you-vote laws passed in almost every red state, the number of citizens Jim Crow’d out of their vote soared into the millions. Since 2020, according to @BrennanCenter, “At least 30 states enacted 78 restrictive laws.”

The race-targeted laws ran the gamut from shuttering drop boxes in Black-majority cities to, for the first time, allowing non-government self-appointed “vote fraud vigilantes” to challenge voters by the hundreds of thousands.

If these vote suppression laws had no effect on election outcomes, then why did GOP legislators fight so hard to pass them? The answer is clear on the Brennan Center’s map of states that passed restrictive laws. It’s pretty much Trump’s victory map.

Biden, the Dems, and the American public at large seen this happening........and did not respond accordingly, instead p*ssyfooted around even with the knowledge of the recent transgression in the Gore v Bush election.
Based on the energy around Kamala,it seemed like she was headed for an easy win. But that could also make people complacent and not vote. Wouldmt be suprised if it was rigged in some way.If Democrats had suspicions and didnt challenge "Red Headed Hitler" winning it speaks volumes

They describe BallotProof as a methodology built for faster, smarter, and more secure validation of ballots.
But you only have to dive into the script to know what it really does.
This is the link to the Devpost page, detailing the progam & all the tools used
BallotProof

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You have to ask why was a team of four 18-19 yr olds looking that closely at ballots?
And why in the world would they need to make a program like that?
You can look up BallotProof on github, see all the files, and know why.
Here's the link to the test files: test – Google Drive
4/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You can see that it appears to be a Python script that programmatically creates a series of synthetic ballot images (two pages per ballot) with random variations, then logs information about each generated image in a text file.
In essence, it’s simulating “filled-out” ballots.
5/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
But the issue isn't the BallotProof Tool they built. It's the https://[U][URL]https://generate.py//[/URL][/U] program that by their own words can:
"The generation script (generate.py) enables the generation of semi-randomized ballots that fit certain satisfiability criteria."
6/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
So they can take any blank official ballot and auto generate any amount of Marked ballot images that can fit any statistical criteria they want.
7/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
Just remember, at election time it's the count of Ballot Images that are tabulated & not purely the paper ballots themselves.
So what else do you use a function tool like this for, if you don't also have access to actual ballots?
Actual ballots with proofs/watermarks etc?
Here's that answer:
8/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You only have to dig a little deeper to see that they have this script, used to create test ballots.

You basically see that this tool they built could be used to invalidate ballots in bulk.
Machines could do it during initial scanning instead of later on, or on custom metrics.

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
This program itself is pretty harmless.
The red flag, however, is that it's possible Shaotran was hired by Musk due to this project because he already had some domain knowledge in the voting machine space for this project/program.
17/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
Look at that. Shaotran already knew Musk when he was building the ballot software program.
They built the program for a hackathon (at Georgia Tech) that Musk sponsored.

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went
This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers
2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon
But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof
Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....

They describe BallotProof as a methodology built for faster, smarter, and more secure validation of ballots.
But you only have to dive into the script to know what it really does.
This is the link to the Devpost page, detailing the progam & all the tools used
BallotProof

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You have to ask why was a team of four 18-19 yr olds looking that closely at ballots?
And why in the world would they need to make a program like that?
You can look up BallotProof on github, see all the files, and know why.
Here's the link to the test files: test – Google Drive

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You can see that it appears to be a Python script that programmatically creates a series of synthetic ballot images (two pages per ballot) with random variations, then logs information about each generated image in a text file.
In essence, it’s simulating “filled-out” ballots.

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
But the issue isn't the BallotProof Tool they built. It's the https://[U][URL]https://generate.py//[/URL][/U] program that by their own words can:
"The generation script (generate.py) enables the generation of semi-randomized ballots that fit certain satisfiability criteria."
6/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
So they can take any blank official ballot and auto generate any amount of Marked ballot images that can fit any statistical criteria they want.
7/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
Just remember, at election time it's the count of Ballot Images that are tabulated & not purely the paper ballots themselves.
So what else do you use a function tool like this for, if you don't also have access to actual ballots?
Actual ballots with proofs/watermarks etc?
Here's that answer:

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You only have to dig a little deeper to see that they have this script, used to create test ballots.

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
There are 160 example ballots that were generated in the 'test' folder of the git repository.

There's also a folder of artificially generated ballot images from Maricopa County.

Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
You basically see that this tool they built could be used to invalidate ballots in bulk.
Machines could do it during initial scanning instead of later on, or on custom metrics.
Just set the machines to count less blue ink ballots and instruct democratic areas to use blue pens.

Lilith @lilithgnosis.bsky.social
this got me thinking...they say ballot machines are safe bc not connected to the Internet, but they don't have to be if a program like 'Clear Ballot' is a Trojan horse. Not saying it is, but we are dealing with Nero-level bad guys.

Musk said if trump doesn't win he will go to prison......and you know if trump lost that election he would end up in prison as well......thats their incentive and why they want to burn it all down....no government no accountability!
16/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
This program itself is pretty harmless.
The red flag, however, is that it's possible Shaotran was hired by Musk due to this project because he already had some domain knowledge in the voting machine space for this project/program.
17/40
Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social
Look at that. Shaotran already knew Musk when he was building the ballot software program.
They built the program for a hackathon (at Georgia Tech) that Musk sponsored.

My feeling that night in the pit of my stomach, was that something odd was happening. The numbers came in too fast, and too overwhelming and the win is too perfect. Especially when you factor in the bullet ballots. Ballots only filled out for 1 person.

Swing states that used StarLink to upload their results were easy targets. Many Red States used StarLink too. Results: another illegitimate "win" for the treason weasel Trump!

Why were they using starlink at all? I thought that was mainly for use in areas w/o the ability to access traditional internet services? The only people I know that use it are RVers and overlanders.

The vote tampering is something I really started to suspect after yesterday's revelation about the little DOGE hacker and it just keeps making more and more sense. Wired or ProPublica needs to check this out and put out a big story. A strong public reaction is our only hope!

Bizarre to me that in 2020 the election wasn’t stolen and MAGA organised an insurrection and in 2024 increasing evidence suggests the election was stolen (even from Trump’s mouth) and Democrats do nothing.

The man (or psychopath) who routinely falsely accuses people of doing what he is actually doing himself, accused his opponents of stealing elections.
