.@DineshDSouza In 2000 Mules, why did Gregg Phillips claim that TTV had tracked 'three dozen of our mules' to BLM/Antifa riots in Atlanta, when 1) ACLED & TTV don't have device ids, and 2) there were NO riots in Georgia for TTV's time period?
ACLED details follow.
ACLED collates world event data.
ACLED event data does NOT include device ids.
TTV claim to only have Georgia geo-tracking data from Oct 1 , 2020 to Jan 6, 2021.
Neither of the two Georgia events in the ACLED database for that time period was a riot.
1) On 12 Dec 2020, Chris Hill of the III% Security Force and more than a dozen armed supporters assaulted four unarmed Antifa members in a parking garage in Atlanta, Georgia, after leaving a demonstration earlier that afternoon.
2) On 17 Dec 2020, Johnny Bolton was asleep & unarmed in Smyrna apt when police serving a narcotics search warrant burst through the front door with guns drawn and no warning. One of the deputies fired, sending 2 bullets into Bolton’s chest, killing him.
Dinesh D'Souza: Now, you decided to purchase through these brokers that make this information available to companies, they make it available all kinds of places - to BUY data.
Let's talk about the methodology.
You identify data in certain places.
1/
Dinesh: By and large, you focused on the states where the election was decided.
Tell us, what are the areas that you bought data for and what were you looking for?
And what's the time period?
Gregg Phillips: October 1st through the election.
2/
Gregg: In Georgia, we actually bought from October 1st through January 6th, after the run off.
[...]
Dinesh: What do we know about them? Who are they?
Gregg: Well, first, let me say this is not grandma walking her dog.
Bad backgrounds, bad reputations.
3/
Gregg: We've had encounters with several that are not terribly positive.
Dinesh: Violent guys?
Gregg: Can be.
They are interested in one thing, that's money.
4/
Dinesh: Do you know, by the way, how much they get paid.
Catherine Engelbrecht: According to the people that have shared information with us, it's generally $10 a ballot.
In the Georgia runoff, that number was higher.
5/
Dinesh: 2020, of course, was the year of the Antifa riots, the BLM riots.
And it was all going on in the months and weeks leading up to the election.
Catherine: Right.
6/
Dinesh: And so, in the data, you have geo-tracking data of the drop boxes, but you also have data on the rioters.
Gregg: There were several different violent BLM Antifa riots in Atlanta.
And, one of them, we had three dozen of our mules participate in the violent riots.
7/
Gregg: There's an organization that tracks the device IDs across all violent protests around the world.*
We took a look at our 242 mules in Atlanta.
And, sure enough, dozens and dozens and dozens of our mules show up on the ACLED databases.
* THIS IS A FALSE STATEMENT
8/
Gregg: So, again, this is not grandma walking her dog.
These are violent criminals, sometimes.
Dinesh: There's not just a criminal element, but there is an ideological element.
And that there's an overlap between people.
9/
Dinesh: I mean, you're not going to go to an Antifa riot and find it overpopulated with patriots or Christians or Republicans.
These are people on, generally, the FAR left.
And, turns out that these are people who also help to make up the mule population.
10/10
Note, again, that ACLED only has data on events; it does NOT have tracked device ids of the people at those events.
The data that True The Vote bought does not include device IDs (IMEIs).
Everything they said in 2000 Mules about tracking 'mules' to BLM/Antifa events is a lie.
Correction to the event map to make the date range from Oct 2020.
Four events in the ACLED database for Georgia. All four categorised as violence against civilians. None were riots or protests.
Date range: 1 Oct 2020 - 6 Jan 2021
Region: Georgia, USA
