Fact - Biden narrowed his selection criteria to a black woman - dei Fact - Jackson has been the lone dissenter, showing how embarrassing her opinions are. Wait. You think being the lone dissenter means the opinion is embarrassing? gee. Would you look at that: https://www.businessinsider.com/clarence-thomas-only-justice-dissent-in-trump-january-6-bid-2022-3 a case where Clarence Thomas was the lone dissenter. In fact, he’s the lone dissenter in many cases. It’s sort of his “thing.” you truly couldn’t be more retarded about this. Until you’ve tried a case or argued a case before an appellate court, you should probably shut the fuck up.

Starkiller Posted July 15 Author Report Share Posted July 15 With midterm elections approaching, political leaders across the country are sharpening strategies to retain or flip key congressional seats - and California Gov. Gavin Newsom is signaling a possible shift in redistricting policy if Texas redraws its maps to favor Republicans. Gov. Newsom has started to voice his frustration over what says is a partisan power grab. In an interview with liberal news outlet, The Tennessee Holler, Newsom said Republicans are "playing by totally different set of rules," suggesting his state might need to rethink its own "fair play" approach. On Thursday, the governor told liberal news outlet the Tennessee Holler that Republicans are playing by a "totally different set of rules," and suggested the California Legislature - which has a Democratic supermajority in both chambers - could "gerrymander like no other state," if leaders stop "playing fair."

reo Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 (edited) Been staying away from this topic but this got interesting. It's now worth paying attention to. Essentially the UPSs connected to voting machines were capable of receiving firmware updates even on air gapped systems that allow root lebro access. And they received one the day before the election that bypassed review. Driving so I might've heard wrong but I think they said the company that manages the UPS's partnered with Peter Theil. At the same time Elon brought Starlink online to provide those updates. And they were posting cryptic messages afterwards like "the anomaly has been installed in the Matrix" or some such. There might be something here to pay attention to. Edited July 16 by reo Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind all the work Trump did after he lost the first time I studying the vulnerabilities of these things. Its getting worth paying attention at the very least. Need more proof to believe it though. Before this i was mostly hearing probably and statistics. Curious but not interested. Them being connected to a UPS thats has wireless firmware updates capabilities that can give them root access to the machines? That's worrisome. Peter Theil being connected to that company and them getting updates before the election that bypassed the review process? Worth looking into and paying attention to.

pat Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 Supply side attacks are a security risk. It wasn't that long ago that newspapers were marveling oh gee look at the bombs that were snuck into middle eastern cell phones isn’t that cool. So the idea of a supply side attack on electronic voting machines is conceivable. I would love to learn more. You ain’t gonna hear about it on X or Facebook or YouTube though - no algorithm sitting front and center at the inauguration is going boost this story. I’d love some Mastodon coverage in addition to the Tik Tok. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reo Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 iirc they're currently fighting it in the courts in... NY? Think theyre trying to either get a hand recount or discovery but I'm not really sure bc... again.. haven't paid that close attention to it yet. If it keeps progressing though we'll all have to pay attention. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted July 16 Author Report Share Posted July 16 No need to have conspiracy theories, just have every district do an automatic recount of paper ballots to verify electronic counting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is the UPS supposed to grant root access? hard to see how or why a peripheral would be designed for that. Unless you just mean it has connectivity to the machine such that you can shell in and elevate normally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A consumer UPS would also not automatically download firmware updates over the Internet. In koisk development it’s not unusual to have a maintenance board which controls power and can also control the user facing device. embedded systems can be complicated.

reo Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 I'm trying to find the article she's referencing but i don't really know where it's at. In the end, it's interesting but unless the court fights go somewhere, it's not much more than that. We'll see. I'm open to the idea but I need evidence.

nine Posted July 17 Report Share Posted July 17 This might be what she's talking about: a fairly in-depth article that looks at the combination of technologies and explaining how it "could" work....although it requires the reader to connect a lot of dots between things that "could" or "might" work, which the author freely admits is a flawed approach. But then again....just months ago we learned of a scheme where Israel literally hacked and infiltrated the manufacturing supply chain to ensure the pagers and walkie talkies purchased and used by Hezbollah were loaded with remotely controlled plastic explosives....a scheme I would have written off as ridiculous and impossible to pull off. But it happened. What this article is talking about sounds similarly far-fetched and ridiculous...but given a small group of well-connected tech mega-billionaires with unlimited resources, who knows? https://michaeldsellers.substack.com/p/part-4-she-won-or-did-she-a-deeper?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=1880323&post_id=166331343&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=2941k8&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
