Texas & voting machine vendor ES&S are hiding something. I requested a copy of the video of the voting-system examination that triggered a secret multi-state investigation of ES&S by @EACgov last year. Texas AG Ken Paxton (Mr. “Stop the Steal”) just ruled I can’t have it. 1/
In other words, Paxton, who tried to overrule other state’s election results due to baseless claims about Dominion Voting is now engaged in a coverup about ES&S. 2/
Obviously, the video could have been trimmed to remove passwords, which should be updated regularly anyway. This is a coverup. 3/
I wrote about @EACgov’s secret investigation of @essvote’s voting systems for @whowhatwhy here. The investigation began about 40 days before the election. @EACgov has so far failed to produce a single document in response to my FOIA. 4/whowhatwhy.org/2021/03/08/ele…
I submitted a formal response to ES&S’s bogus objection in which I pointed out that passwords could be trimmed from the video. Paxton ignored it. Seriously. What are they hiding?! 5/
I requested documents from @EACgov about its secret investigation of @essvote (which was referenced in documents produced by Texas) in January. They had not posted anything about it on their website. They have yet to produce a single responsive document. #BrokenSystem 8/
When I posted about @EACgov’s unreasonable delay months ago, they finally wrote me and said they would try to produce documents by May 14. That day came and went. Crickets. 9/
The next step would be for me to sue Paxton to get the improperly withheld video. I’ll look into this more next week. 10/ texasattorneygeneral.gov/open-governmen…
“The American Moment ***
A JD Vance-backed project [and partner of Project 2025] wants to smash the institutions of liberal democracy. That's not good.” By Justin Ling, 7/16/24 1/ bugeyedandshameless.com/p/the-american…
Americans are sleepwalking into something they don’t understand. Only 9% of CHRISTIANS (and 6% of Americans) share the Christian Right’s extreme “biblical worldview,” per Family Research Council (FRC) president Tony Perkins. This is based on FRC’s OWN DATA - Me w/ @RepRiggleman. 1/
2/ As Denver & I discussed, Perkins is the immediate past president of the Council for National Policy (CNP), the Christian Right’s umbrella. Yes, the CNP includes Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts & SCOTUS kingpin Leonard Leo.
2/ Link to full Interview, which is brilliantly edited to add photos of the key players in America’s Christian extremist web, as Denver and I discuss them.
😳 Heritage Foundation (lead organizer of Project 2025) has on three separate occasions in the last week or two promoted Trump/Heritage alum William Wolfe, a militant fundamentalist Christian and leading figure in the self-professed “Christian Nationalism” movement. 1/
In the wake of today’s horrific shooting at a Trump rally, Trump is receiving the type of grace that he has withheld from others. Listen to how he reacted to the conspiracy to kidnap Governor Whitmer. 1/
