Whether there’s anything to it or not, who knows. But it is comical that democrats are on video the last couple years fussing about the very thing that none now want to talk about.
Guess they now work perfect. Funny how that is.

Guess they now work perfect. Funny how that is.
I'm not sure why I even do this but damn, here goes:
Democratic U.S. Representative Carolyn Maloney expressed concern about Smartmatic, a company that Giuliani claims owns Dominion but in actuality has no stake in it, financial or otherwise, purchasing Sequoia Voting Systems. This was in 2006.
Following the 2018 election, Senators Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar wrote a letter to Staple Street Financial Group asking about their relationship with Dominion. The letter also contained inquiries and suggestion about consistent technology upgrades to voting machines.
Like I said before, this isn't hard. Hear/read someone's comments and look into them. It takes a handful of minutes.
go ahead and eat the popcorn. this is just another of their frivolous law suits.
Nothing to see on any of it Topps. The libs on here have more excuses than Carter has liver pills. It’s “well 2600 votes was just a simple error, and besides 800 went to Biden.” They also refuse to believe that this software by Dominion could have some bad issues. It doesn’t fit what they’ve been told by the fake news.
The MAGA rally in DC is a prime example.

Dallas Jones, Biden's Harris County (TX) campaign manager, was not arrested.
Four individuals were arrested in September regarding an investigation that opened up in 2019 about a ballot harvesting scheme that took place in the lead up to the 2018 primaries.
The picture being circulated along with an "article," that contains no byline is of Cuba Gooding, Jr getting arrested for groping a woman.
Open How To Vote and scroll down to the bottom of the page. Dominion is literally the first voting system listed.
The lead into the system descriptions:
"Regardless of the system you’re using, know this: When voting in the Lone Star State, you count. Texas makes sure."
Well, I am sure that the covid outbreak at MDI didn't help things either. I've been in management now for almost 15 of the 20 years I have been with the company, which has it's ups and downs. Working in retail management during a pandemic has been more than a challenge. The benefits are nice though and I enjoy getting bonuses from time to time. There are days, especially this year, I wish that I had chosen a different career path, haha Of course, very thankful to have a job right now.
Then their attorney general lied. Said they tested and rejected Dominion.
Google Did Texas use Dominion.

Legitimate doctors and scientists really? My son is a paramedic and it’s amazing all the gear and filtered mask he has to wear to stay safe when transporting a patient with the virus. I guess he would be considered illegitimate since it doesn’t go along with your narrative.
Absolutely on that last bit. I kinda got lucky because I started a few months before Covid really hit and after that they kinda stopped hiring new people, even getting rid of some and just bringing employees from IFH to help because they already knew the job.
I would imagine it's been rough to be in your position. The logistics alone this year have been nuts, I know we've had a tough time managing it all.
To a liberal the only legitimate story is one that supports the Democrats narrative
By testing it, he means they used it in three different elections beginning it in 2012. They did not use it in 2020.
The rest of what he's saying seems like what politicians typically do: Seizing an opportunity and positioning one's self for the next step.
If Texas had truly believed it to be a system ripe for fraudulent interference, why did they use it in three separate election cycle?
Furthermore, if it had truly been rejected as opposed to simply the state's decision to use another of the multiple systems with whom they contract, why would the official government site of the Texas Secretary of State still list and endorse Dominion on its website?
Finally, why if this was anything more than political posturing by someone trying to latch himself to millions ot passionate Trump supporters, why hasn't the Secretary of State (you know the person over top of things like voting systems) issued the same statement?
What difference does it matter that it was used in previous years but not 2020? Things change. Maybe they saw something this year that was not right in their eyes. You’re gonna hurt yourself with all this reaching. Just refuse to give an inch, even when you’re shown otherwise. Multiple sources say the same thing, even backed up by the attorney general, yet here you go with trying to find reason.
They didn’t trust it, that’s why. Looks like Texas made a good decision.
You're confusing multiple sources with one ambition attorney general making the right wing rounds and saying something that the Texas Secretary of State (despite it falling under her department) has not confirmed.
I'll give you credit about this one, though. The attorney general did actually say this, well after Dominion became the latest version of "Hillary's emails."
The other two things I've fact-checked this morning just straight up didn't happen.
No offense, but your sources suck. I’ve seen the hack job sites you guys use.
I’ve been very clear, and you only halfway acknowledge Dominion, spinning it to fit your horrible line of thinking.
Did Texas use Dominion or not?
Dominion was not used in Texas in 2020. Dominion has been used in Texas and is still one of the three systems listed on their website as being officially used by the state of Texas. If it had truly been rejected for security purposes, why is the attorney general talking about it in interviews after it's become the new right-wing conspiratorial buzzword but not having ever said a word to anyone about it in the past?
Beyond that, there is a pinned tweet to the Texas SOS's page with a video warning against disinformation about voter fraud and the steps the state takes to ensure security elections. This would have been an ideal time for the SOS to mention the states rejection of Dominion, right? Nothing.
I'm not trying to sound like a jerk, but there are so many sources of information out there. You say my sources suck but it seems you use random tweets and reddit, maybe Newsmax. You should try actual government sites and established providers such as Reuters and the Associated Press from time to time.
Of course the health care workers have and need more protection. They are exposed to large payloads of the virus as a result of their jobs. As an aside, I am glad there was equipment to give your son so he can do his job safely. For the rest of us though, our exposure is different and so we are protected by the masks.
You are so tiresome and you are so intent on calling me stupid that you don't even think your insults through. You can see my answer below on why there is nothing inconsistent in my narrative.
What point are you trying to make that Texas used Dominion in the past, yet not in 2020? What I read is that they tested it before the election, and said it didn't seem trustworthy. Seems pretty straightforward to me.
Not sure why you keep going about the A.G.
You say you're not trying to sound like a jerk, but read what I've stated as their reasons, and your responses. You just won't concede because it puts a dent into your view on the disputed claims of computer fraud/glitches that we have been thinking have happened.
I'm saying there is nothing from Texas's Secretary of State to support the AG's post-election revelations of a decision that would have had to have been made months ago. And if the decision was truly made months ago because they uncovered security issues with the system wouldn't they have tried to share this discovery so that other states could follow suit?
As I keep pointing out, if they decided to no longer use Dominion because if shortfalls in the system, why would they continue to list and endorse the usage of the system on the official SOS website?
You go on and on about establishments and untrustworthy officials and politicians, why won't you acknowledge that Texas's AG may simply be spinning a story in hopes of getting his name out there for future political considerations?
At this point, everyone knows the election is over. It is highly likely the remaining Republicans who are riding with Trump on this are doing so because they feel cozying up to his staunch supporters (such as yourself) is a good move for their political futures.
I’m under the impression that each state decides what to use. Texas, after having several “experts” test the Dominion software, concluded it wasn’t safe, and too many problems could arise. I don’t know, and don’t really care if Texas lists Dominion on their page as a system. The fact is that they chose not to this election. They aren’t the only state to not use it. I have no idea why other states didn’t, but I think it’s a fair assumption to say that’s a smart move, unless you’re a democrat.
You’re reaching though, still trying to justify why, when it’s actually quite obvious. But that hurts your narrative to do that. So carry on.
The good news for you is Biden will still probably be president, though in the back of your mind you libs have been proven wrong. But, you have the media that will protect you, so y’all won’t ever admit anything shady has happened.
There were 20 states that didn't use Dominion in 2020. There were 30 who did. There are more than two companies who provide voting systems to the United States, so it's not like states chose to use the legitimate one or the illegitimate one. Of course, I'm sure you knew that. There's nothing in the back of my head about this election because with all the attention being paid to it, to this point, there is literally nothing being proven about voter fraud. Too many people seem to think a random handle on Twitter making an unsupported claim is proof. It's not. It is, however, an indication of how easy some people are to fool.
Everything comes down to, "YOU LIBS/YOU DEMS," with you. Do you look at every aspect of your life in such a way?
There is nothing in the back of my mind, just like in 2000, that makes me think this election was rigged.
It's very obvious why Texas claims to not have used Dominion. They tested, and said it didn't seem credible. End of story. Whether or not fraud happened (which I think did), has to be proven by Trump. Either his lawyer is lying on tv, or it could get really interesting. She claims they have indisputable evidence. The time is coming soon to see if she's right or not. Look up her interview with Maria Bartiromo on Sunday, and watch it.
The reason I say you libs, is obvious as well. We've all been lied to by the media, it's just that "you libs" choose to believe those lies. I don't.
Keep telling yourself that the masks protect you. That's just false hope. My son and all his coworkers tend to agree that the mask just seem to make people think they're protected. I don't think the cases would be going up as much as they are if they truly worked. The majority of the people I see out and about are wearing a mask.
First, Texas isn't claiming anything. Ken Paxton did some echo chamber interviews well after Stonewalljackson1776 (seriously, that's the twitter source) started making claims about Dominion that were picked up by Donald Trump. Texas SOS Ruth Ruggero Huhgs hasn't said anything to support Paxton's claims.
Next, you mention Trump's latest attorney and qualify it with, "either his lawyer is lying on TV," gee, do you think that is a possibility? How many people who make public appearances on behalf of the current president have been outed as lying about something?
Remember last week when Kayleigh McEnany was waving the 234 page document that was going to Michigan and was going to blow the lid off everything? Yeah, that got thrown out of court because it didn't have anything of factual relevance in it.
You say the media lies to me, fine. Social Media lies to you.
Research and qualify **** you're going to argue about. Read some books. Find people you disagree with and read their books and articles. That is how you grow and expand your base of knowledge.
Why do I want to read what liberals think? They do nothing but put their own spin to it. I have NO respect for people like Chris Cuomo, Don Lemon, reporters from the other fake news sites, or this writer, Dana Milbank that spewed his ignorant opinion as to why Trump got Christian voters. That is an ignorant statement you have made. You think I get my news from social media?
As far as Sydney Powell lying on tv? I didn't say she was or wasn't, just that she seemed very confident in what she was stating.
Like I've told you, and I stand by it, that the more the debate lingers, the more unhinged you become.
If you think the liberal media is the only one that puts spin on their news reporting than you are even more delusional than you seem right now. I would think both sides should know want to know what the other side is thinking. Otherwise there is simply no way to get past this yawning divide that has been created. As for becoming unhinged, i would suggest you look in the mirror but it is true that we are getting frustrated. Trump and his attorneys have lied at every step and instead of being made to pay for it, a large section of the American public now thinks the election was stolen. That is going to make it really hard for the current President-elect to govern. That should terrify every patriotic American.
We all watch and go off of our preferred sites or channels. When I watch a clip of that quack Van Jones on tv acting emotional and saying something like he feels proud to be a dad, or some stupid crap like that when Biden looked to be the winner, or that fruit Don Lemon crying while talking to roid rage Cuomo, I feel like vomiting.
I find someone like Bill O'Reilly very news worthy. Liberals thought he was too hard on Obama, conservatives thought he wasn't hard enough. I also love to watch Dennis Miller, find his views funny but on point. I am not a big fan of Brit Hume, but I think he is fair.
I'm sorry, but I laughed at you mentioning the word patriotic.
It's time to call out the people who insist on lying to undermine the election results as unpatriotic. that is exactly what they are. not sure why you think it's funny. i find it sad.
Van Jones didn't say anything about being proud to be a dad in the segment I assume you're referring to. He talked about the election of Joe Biden and the defeating of Donald Trump making it a little bit easier for certain people to be a dad in America.
You can't relate, so it doesn't mean anything to you, but he was talking about the difficulty of having a Black child, or pretty much any child in a marginalized demographic, and having to explain the racist rhetoric of the President of the United States.
Why would you refer to Don Lemon as a fruit? Why would you refer to Coumo as "roid rage?"
In an earlier response to me, you asked why you would want to read about what liberals (I'm going to guess this applies to anyone you think different than) think. Because if you learn why someone thinks the way they do you can understand what it is that they think. That can help to make you a better person and help to build bridges between people of different ideologies. Hell, it can help to make you not sound like an idiot when you're having a discussion.
Remember when you assumed why I disliked Larry Elder and then I gave an actual reason based around one of his core beliefs? Yeah, I was able to do that because I found his stances interesting and I wanted to learn about him and why he formed his opinions. I've most likely read more books by him than you have and he's somebody you cited as a good Black.
Reading others views has given me an appreciation I wouldn't otherwise have. Bob Woodward helped me come to respect James Mattis and Dan Coats. He actually helped me to at least understand how a good Christian like Mike Pence could align himself with Donald Trump.
You can learn a lot by opening your mind.
Like I said, in my opinion, there’s absolutely nothing good with guys like Cuomo, Van Jones, Lemon, Rachel Maddow...so I’m not going to waste my time.
On the note of this election? We gave Gore 30+ days to check the election in 2000. There’s nothing wrong with Trump doing some investigation. After all, there’s plenty of doubt out there, even though you guys have your blinders on.
The problem goes back to the media. They don’t want Trump to check. Then you have big tech. Almost all their money goes to the democrats.
This is a battle. Non Establishment vs The Establishment.

Gore, who lost, was disputing Florida and a 537 vote difference.
Trump is disputing multiple states and hundreds of thousands of votes, claiming multiple types of frauds and using a scenario he's been claiming for five years (the only way he can lose is if the elections are rigged despite never reaching 45 percent approval rating and never winning the popular vote).
You brought up Van Jones again but didn't pay any attention to the explanation about the emotional nature of what he talked about.
Why did you refer to Don Lemon as a fruit?
Why did you refer to Chris Coumo as roid rage?
Not only the mask is misleadingCuomo has admitted that 65 percent of the new cases are among people who were quarantined.Fauci also lauds Europe and its shutdown as a model but cases show that they are undergoing major increases.Another thing with Fauci along with the media ,they all claimed vaccines were were not going to be available until late 2021 before the election.He has lost all credibility since everything he said has proctor to be wrong
Lemon is a fruit. It’s obvious. Just like Cuomo and his brother are meat heads. I said what I did about Jones in a general sense, not a quote. He’s a pos.
The media is crooked, and you guys are gullible to believe their bull ****.
You guys just don’t want to think about the election being rigged, or filled with fraud. The hacks at these other stations wouldn’t know the truth if it hit them in the ***, and sadly y’all are just like them.
Not a mention from the media or you guys about the maga rally, and the thugs that tried to disrupt them.
You all are showing to be as worthless as the media.
You have not seen Coumo videos of him threatening to throw a man down the stairs or him threatening one of his neighbors in the Hamptons
Your story (taken directly from Trump's twitter) about the MAGA rally reads like the episode of King of the Hill where the fire station burns down and all four of them take turns telling their version of the story about who's at fault.
Straight up, I think most of the people protesting in the name of Antifa are probably a similar level of piece of **** as the people I saw marching at the rally, armed up chanting, "F--K Antifa."
That said, no I don't believe Trump's retelling of events. Call me cynical, but he gets caught lying so often it's hard to believe much of anything he says without serious verification.
On to this thing about calling Lemon a fruit. Why would you do that? What possible bearing does his orientation (he is gay and engaged, so it's not like he's hiding anything) have on anything you were ranting about?
