Fmr CIA officer here.

Let me share how elections get stolen — and the role of intel agencies.

We all know that the CIA and NSA create and execute clandestine operations that are designed to go undetected. That ranges from recruiting human spies, tapping phone systems, and altering devices of all kinds.

Yes, that necessarily includes voting machines.

The CIA and NSA have teams to execute all of these operations and missions at the direction of a President, even those ops that are deemed impossible… like machines locked in rooms that are inside secure facilities, unhooked from the internet or whatever device that could tether them to the outside world.

Those tough intel operations require extensive planning, exquisite trade craft, supporting operations (HUMINT, SIGINT, MASINT), and a degree of luck.

For many years, everything that I’m saying was understood by both Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill.

Historic footage from Congressional hearings show both Ds and Rs saying that they were alarmed about voting systems with so-called “unhackable machines.” They knew then — correctly — that such a suggestion or claim was ridiculous. They were briefed by NSA and CIA teams on how they “hack the unhackable” every month without leaving a trace.

This is why Taiwan and others are resolute on conducting elections the old fashioned way: same day voting only, in person, IDs, paper ballots, a counting process that is open to the public to watch and monitor, and results announced that same night.

If Taiwan can do it with ~24M people, any US state can do it. Refusal to do so is an intentional choice to open your electoral systems to vulnerabilities.

That's what we’re now seeing across the United States, and primarily in Democrat-dominated locales. Including Los Angeles. Those politicians choose broken systems.

California’s ~30 day process to tally votes is obviously and intentionally vulnerable that a reasonable person understands that it allows for manipulation and assured electoral outcome by a dominant power (Democrats, in this case).

And like any good intel op, you do it such that there are no fingerprints left behind — whether that be with machines, mail-in ballots, harvested ballots, etc. If you own the ops environment, anything is possible.

Still, mistakes happen in any op. In the event of disclosure, you do what we often see Democrats and the media do: deny, smear, and make counter-accusations to preserve intentionally broken systems.

Folks, this is not about Spencer Pratt. This is about the future of what’s left of our Republic.

Evil, seditious forces have broken our electoral systems and gained great power using them. Mayor Bass is but one, using the machine that her Democrat Party has built to sustain her and Leftist power. It’s the modern, Golden State version of old Chicago, NJ, or Huey Long corruption.

They will deny it, obviously. Because admission means loss of power, money, and likely prison time. There’s no incentive for them to clean up what’s broken.

Bottom line: Mr. Pratt’s earnest desire to run a righteous race to fix his city faces long odds. He didn’t just run against Karen Bass. He ran against a corrupt machine.

But if nothing else, he has shown his fellow Angelinos and the nation that, once again, we have an existential problem in our electoral system with intentional vulnerabilities and electoral fraud that naturally flows from the brokenness.

Now it’s up to the rest of us to fix it.

There are solutions, none easy or polite. But we must do so — and by whatever means necessary — or the Republic falls to Communists and Cuba-trained agitators like Karen Bass.

Those are the stakes. Time is short.

Nobody does a better job of destroying LGBTQ acceptance than their own activists.

Just a bunch of bullies run that whole show now, and they’re incapable of behaving themselves.

Phillip went to court to change his name to Ben. After the hearing, he changed his mind, so he asked the clerk if he could cancel the name change. She said he’d have to file another request and pay another filing fee. When he objected to paying a fee just to cancel an application, the clerk responded, “Sorry sir, no free re-Phills.”

@TPostMillennial So, believing murder is wrong makes you far right? Got it.

@SaltyGoat17 I don’t have a problem with using tear gas, but water cannons would produce better video.

@MAGAVoice I feel sorry for that poor dog. It clearly wanted to go with Nick and to get away from that imbecile

@nancy_hamm1 @FreyjaTarte I think I may have a few years on you. The first car stereo I bought was an 8-track, and video tape machines at that time were mostly in studios and broadcast stations.

Henry Nowak got stabbed five times on a street in Southampton. He told the police he’d been stabbed. The guy who did it claimed he was the real victim because of racism.

The officers believed the killer. They handcuffed the dying 18-year-old instead of helping him. When Henry said “I can’t breathe,” they told him he was wrong and read him his rights while he bled out on the pavement.

Six years ago the same three words were treated like holy scripture. Politicians knelt. Police forces knelt. Corporations changed their logos and issued groveling statements. The entire British establishment performed public acts of submission because a man in America said it while being restrained.

This time a British teenager said it while handcuffed and dying, and those same institutions looked the other way. No outrage. No rituals. No wall-to-wall coverage. Just silence ... the cold, deliberate kind that only appears when the victim doesn’t fit the approved narrative.

They spent years stuffing police with anti-racism training that taught them accusations of racism are sacred and must override everything else, including their own eyes. So when the moment came, the system did exactly what it was built to do: it protected the narrative instead of the kid with five holes in him.

This isn’t a failure of policing. It’s the intended result of importing a poisonous ideology that reassigns moral worth based on skin color and then trains institutions to enforce it even when someone is bleeding to death in front of them.

They created this. They trained for this. And when it happened exactly as designed, they had the nerve to act surprised.

🔥Please remember CP's Rule #1 for Media Consumption:

**************
Never, ever, ever, EVER trust any news report that is sourced completely anonymously. It's always a lie.

*************

Inside the DC Beltway, those "sources" are always one of three things:

1. Imaginary.
2. A federal employee coward who wants to backdoor his boss.
3. Somebody who got fired and wants revenge.

It's all rumor, innuendo and lies, all the way down, but "reported" as if was actual news.

When American POWs tried to sneak her notes with their personal information to tell their families they were still alive, she gave them to the North Vietnamese. Some of them were beaten to death. You are both commies and you can both fuck off.

An old man is selling watermelons by the side of the road.

His sign reads:

1 for $3

3 for $10

A young man stops and buys one watermelon.

“That’ll be $3,” says the old man.

The young man then buys a second watermelon. And then a third.

After paying another $3 each time, the young man picks up his watermelons and starts to walk away.

Then he turns back, grinning proudly.

“Hey old man,” he says, “you realize I just bought three watermelons for $9 instead of $10? Maybe business isn’t your thing.”

The old man smiles and shakes his head.

“Funny… every time somebody comes by, they buy three watermelons instead of one… and then try to teach me business.”
