This was an embarrassment. Krebs got fact checked by Ron Johnson, one of Putin's puppets, about cellular modems that connect ballot scanners to the internet. Yes, Krebs knew about the modems. He's the one who refused to advise election officials in writing to remove them.
Receipt:
Letter from election-security experts about how wireless modems connect voting systems to the internet. When Krebs made this statement, even NBC News had reported on the internet connectivity. Yes, he knew. documentcloud.org/documents/7225…
If NBC News knew, then Krebs knew too. nbcnews.com/politics/elect…

"To underline the lack of security at the ballot-programming level, ... Halderman displayed a screenshot of the “Who We Are” section of the webpage for Governmental Business Systems (GBS), an Illinois-based company that programs ballots 4 ... Michigan." 1/archive.thinkprogress.org/how-easy-would…

3/ "But with the email addresses for every person in the company on display, it would be easy enough to find one person likely to be convinced enough by a professional-looking email purporting to come from Gmail, Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter to click on a link or attachment."

I never forgot this either. @rad_atl was referring to an actual conversation. Remember how Russia sent spearphishing emails w/ Trojan malware to Florida election officials? What if some of those officials used the same computer 4 emails as for the election management system?! 1/ Image

Susan Hennessey literally went out of her way to wrongly LEGITIMIZE Trump’s presidency. I wld know bc I called her out and saved a screenshot. Are we now in the staged opposition phase of the strangulation of our democracy?! Image
She did it here too. ImageImage
Hennessy was wrong. Wyden is right. “People are always saying, no votes were changed [in 2016]. Nobody knows that! Because we wouldn’t know that unless we have a real forensic analysis ... & that hadn’t been done.” Sen. Wyden, member of the US Intelligence Committee, 10/23/19

There’s a reason this sounds like the GOP’s complaining about insecure elections after refusing to secure them b4 the election. The GOP borrowed some of their techniques from the tobacco & oil & gas industries. And probably vice versa. It’s one giant fake propaganda bubble. 1/

This is interesting. Frank Scavo, a PA public figure, organized buses to the insurrection (per a tip to the FBI). He's been charged w/ federal crimes. His attorney is Ernie Preate. The Preate family is VERY tight w/ Steve Bannon. 1/ justice.gov/usao-dc/case-m…
