1) "You states want to put up a fight about voter rolls? Fine. DHS gets the ball now."
*Looks up current head of DHS*
FOUND OUT WHAT THE STRATEGIC DISTRACTION WAS PARTLY FOR!
2) Kirstjen Nielsen was just confirmed to replace Kelly as secretary of homeland security early December mobile.nytimes.com/2017/12/05/us/…
3) White House aide my ass. She was 2nd in command of DHS under Kelly, then became a deputy chief of staff under him when he became Chief of Staff after Trump
4) She previously was president of Sunesis Consulting, contracted with DHS for cybersecurity
5) What was a biiiig issue that came up in the 2016 elections? politico.com/story/2016/10/… Cyber security
6) DHS even warned 20 states about attempted hacks on their voter roll systems in September 2016, blamed on the Russians, though this WAS the same intelligence community that blamed the DNC leaks on Russian hackers without examining the servers, soooo yeah.
7) THEORY TIME! The commission to investigate voter fraud has found 'significant evidence' of voter fraud, heretofore unreleased to the public.
8) as per the press release: Many states (primarily those with democrats in positions of power that can refuse the commission) aren't handing over the raw data necessary. This was to be expected
9) So while the Bannon shitshow occupies EVERYONES attention, an executive order goes out quietly disbanding the commission and giving the evidence it has to the department of homeland security, which has vastly more manpower, authority, and ability to collect necessary data
10) Aaaaaaand its just been placed under the control of Kierstjen Nielsen, who has a lot of cybersecurity experience and has worked with and in the DHS for years bow
11) my guess? Someone did attempt to hack the elections. How or why I won't speculate (yes, go nuts with the soros voting machine theories in the replies, I won't interact with then though). There's something substantial the commission found.
12) When the commission was first assembled, it was going to collect evidence and give the results to Trump, NOT to the DHS, which is far more dangerous as it isn't as easily accused of bias. It was a bait and switch waiting for the right distraction.
13) And soon, probably pre 2018 elections? Boom goes the dynamite, voter fraud is going to take a HARD kick to the nuts. Electoral. Extinction. /end
