If Biden had lost, wld we still be content taking Krebs’ “word” that the election was secure? It’s great that Krebs got fired by Trump & all, but not a sufficient basis on which to bet our entire future. Comey got fired too. Both = Rs. Neither transparent.

I show in this video how Comey spread the lie of “no internet connectivity” to voting systems in 2016. Even if Comey didn’t know it was a lie in 2016, Krebs certainly knew it was a lie when he tried to say the same thing after the 2020 election. 1/
What an embarrassment for Krebs to be corrected by an agent of the Kremlin. To have the bad guys catch u “massaging the truth” (lying) helps the bad guys. 2/
Ds must stop it w/ the savior syndrome. Krebs got election offices to use two-step authentication. CISA scanned some vendors’ systems but won’t say which. They put censors on voter registration systems. But they decided it was ok to connect the voting systems to the internet. 3/
4/
5/ Krebs later claimed that CISA advised election officials orally to remove the modems. Um, why not in writing?!
Krebs giving the VP of ES&S (of the secret remote access software and secret internet connectivity) a certificate of appreciation in February 2019. 6/
7/ Soon after Krebs gave that certificate of appreciation to ES&S, researchers found ES&S systems online. Can’t make this stuff up. It is inexcusable. nbcnews.com/politics/elect…
8/ And them Krebs tries to get away with falsely claiming our election was secure bc voting machines don’t connect to the internet?! A little after 1:23. hsgac.senate.gov/examining-irre…
