trump blackout this weekend can only mean one thing: after seeing a tweet of his inside the special council report, the meaning of "anything you say can be used against you in a court of law" came down like a ton of bricks on him! #MuellerReport#ReleaseTheReport#MuellerTime
HOW did Trump win ALL swing states?
"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.
And it started with a long forgotten sale.
A Power Cord Becomes a Backdoor
In March 2021, Leonard Leo—the judicial kingmaker behind the modern conservative legal machine—sold a quiet Chicago company by the name of Tripp Lite for $1.65 billion. The buyer: Eaton Corporation, a global power infrastructure conglomerate that just happened to have a partnership with Peter Thiel’s Palantir.
To most, Tripp Lite was just a hardware brand—battery backups, surge protectors, power strips. But in America’s elections, Tripp Lite devices were something else entirely.
They are physically connected to ES&S central tabulators and Electionware servers, and Dominion tabulators and central servers across the country. And they aren’t dumb devices. They are smart UPS units—programmable, updatable, and capable of communicating directly with the election system via USB, serial port, or Ethernet.
ES&S systems, including central tabulators and Electionware servers, rely on Tripp Lite UPS devices. ES&S’s Electionware suite runs on Windows OS, which automatically trusts connected UPS hardware.
If Eaton pushed an update to those UPS units, it could have gained root-level access to the host tabulation environment—without ever modifying certified election software.
In Dominion’s Democracy Suite 5.17, the drivers for these UPS units are listed as “optional”—meaning they can be updated remotely without triggering certification requirements or oversight. Optional means unregulated. Unregulated means invisible. And invisible means perfect for infiltration.
...
Enter the ballot scrubbing platform BallotProof. Co-created by Ethan Shaotran, a longtime employee of Elon Musk and current DOGE employee, BallotProof was pitched as a transparency solution—an app to “verify” scanned ballot images and support election integrity.
With Palantir's AI controlling the backend, and BallotProof cleaning the front, only one thing was missing: the signal to go live.
September 2024: Eaton and Musk Make It Official
Then came the final public breadcrumb:
In September 2024, Eaton formally partnered with Elon Musk.
The stated purpose? A vague, forward-looking collaboration focused on “grid resilience” and “next-generation communications.”
But buried in the partnership documents was this line:
“Exploring integration with Starlink's emerging low-orbit DTC infrastructure for secure operational continuity.”
The Activation: Starlink Goes Direct-to-Cell
That signal came on October 30, 2024—just days before the election, Musk activated 265 brand new low Earth orbit (LEO) V2 Mini satellites, each equipped with Direct-to-Cell (DTC) technology capable of processing, routing, and manipulating real-time data, including voting data, through his satellite network.
DTC doesn’t require routers, towers, or a traditional SIM. It connects directly from satellite to any compatible device—including embedded modems in “air-gapped”
It hurts my brain to hear Hegseth deny having problems with alcohol, then minimize it, then promise not to drink again if he please gets voted in. He's lying brazenly, lying selfishly, insulting veterans with trauma, disrespecting the complexities of addiction AND of running the Pentagon.
Enough.
Anyone that has studied Abnormal Psychology, has had addiction or narcissism in their lives, or has read about it or even just has an intuitive sense of it, must recognize that the entire landscape of conversation in and around the Hegseth nomination is now just a giant ball of utter dysfunction.
Enough!
Trump is creating a cabinet full of billionaires because his second term is going to about screwing all of us to help make his billionaire friends even more filthy rich.
It's oligarchy. Not democracy.
President Biden is right: he is leaving Donald Trump with a booming economy and a country that has made it out of a pandemic. Thank you, President Biden.
About last night… did you hear the one about the black man carving a watermelon?…and what was that about Puerto Rico?…
Some of y’all can pretend if you want to you; rationalize your own misogyny and racism because you “like his policies”, but at some point you are the headline.
A priest plea to the Repubiklans, it's deep and super true.

Once upon a time, the Republican Party stood for limited government.
But now it stands only for Trump. It demands total loyalty to him.
The moral downfall of the GOP is nothing to celebrate. It shows how fragile our democracy has become.
Fmr. GOP Sen. Jeff Flake:
“I’m voting for Kamala Harris not in spite of being a Republican or a conservative, but because I’m a conservative. Conservatives first and foremost believe in the rule of law. And to have a former president who lost a free and fair election then attempted to overturn that election-How can any conservative support such a person?”
