Earlier today, during a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the Arizona vote outcome, representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) questioned Maricopa County officials about their deletion of 2020 election data in order to avoid a state senate subpoena for election records.
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman Jack Sellers and the boards vice chairman, Bill Gates, admitted they intentionally deleted election data to route it onto an archive file. The archives of the county records were not subpoenaed, that way the county could avoid sending the full 2020 election data to the auditors.
The admission takes place at 01:52 of the video testimony [Prompted, just hit play]:

“We cheated. We Lied. So what. You can’t do squat against us.”
That’s the problem… we probably can’t bc our entire govt is so corrupt. It’s very… demoralizing.
I see it the other way. I see it as our entire government is so corrupt and are being exposed to the point we citizens now see it for what it really is. I rejoice we citizens are now having the opportunity hearing and seeing the TRUTH.
Only a very small subset of the citizens are getting exposed to this information.
The subset with guns is all we need.
sounds like an FIB inspired inducement to gin up a conspiracy to frame someone for terrorism
not that you are a FIB, or a FIB informer
you need to be careful batty roy, because if your not FIB, and if you haven’t already been targeted by FIB informers, you are posting things that will attract them to you
after all, they desperately need some victims to parade as terrorists
please don’t fall for their ploys
Right. What the vast majority heard from the MSM- all of it– was that the audit proved Biden won AZ and by an additional 300+ votes. At this point… we need indictments to make the country pay attention. We NEED audits in all counties nationwide. We need to restore authentic elections.
I don’t think we have … added any numbers of citizens to the list of voters who know our elections are rigged.
And then what?
Maricopa County Board vice chairman Bill Gates and the look on his face was PRICELESS!!
Bill Gates admitted he DELETED files off the server and HID them from auditors.
I’m gonna watch it again.
“bc our entire govt is so corrupt”

Pandora Papers: A simple guide to the Pandora Papers leak
Published 1 day ago
The Pandora Papers is a leak of almost 12 million documents that reveals hidden wealth, tax avoidance and, in some cases, money laundering by some of the world’s rich and powerful.
The files expose how some of the most powerful people in the world – including
more than 330 politicians from 90 countries – use secret offshore companies to
hide their weatth.
From 1995:
And Biggs is laughing with them as Rome burns.
The shuck-and-jive just goes on and on with these folks. I suppose this is a reflection of the anxiety progressives and John McCain/UniParty Republicans have about having the 2020 election overturned. I was reading an article The Economist which was ridiculing the “audit report” which focused only on the raw vote recount while ignoring collected data conclusively showing enough obvious invalid votes cast to win the election for Trump.
The Economist– another junk propaganda magazine.
Yes WE can, if WE really wanted too……
How? You have a plan?
Supreme Court says Arizona has no standing.
/s but not really
This is not a job for Suspicious Cat. It is a job for Just Paying Attention Cat.
It’s a job for the Lion.
The best IS yet to come ? ? ? ?
I would posit that this revelation isn’t surprising nor unexpected however, what happens next?
How do we get this “back”?
Who are the authorities that have the ability to enact consequences for these actions?
What are the remedies to correct these clear violations?
It should start with arrests for obstruction and tampering with evidence. The evidence in its original state was required and the original state was changed. Some people will accept what they did a “clever” but if any civilian tried something like that, we’d go straight to jail.
And this is in violation of federal law, not just states level jurisdiction.
Where is the lying scum RINO AG from AZ –
I’m done giving that Bitch time –
He thinks he’s going to win a senate seat before any action is taken on 2020 he is smoking Karl roves ass crack
This lies directly at the feet of the Arizona AG. Will shall see if he folds like a cheap Chinese suit or if he upholds the rule of law. If he sits on his ass and does nothing he can kiss his run for a Senate seat goodbye.
And yet once again in our fair nation no one will pay the price of their lies. That is why you pols are no longer trusted at all.
Just because they hid the diamonds under the floor boards doesn’t mean they didn’t steal them.
Brnovitch could. Doubt it but he could. Depends if he wants to take a shot at becoming huge. It will get the media after him but they won’t be able to cover it up completely.
What’s his sentencing date?
Durham will be right on it… so expect results right after the statute of limitations has expired for everyone involved.
The day after hell freezes over. Nope, not even then.
I don’t expect anything to happen to these people at least not where the legal system is concerned.
Nor do I believe the voters will vote them out in the next.
I hope I am proven wrong.
No one can vote anyone out ever again because these guys program their win into the machine and wipe the results.
Maybe,
But PDJT and his insiders know far more of what’s going on than possibly even Sundance.
IMO sense real fear among the “ evil doers” they have been used to the “ cloak of darkness” this sunlight is truly disinfecting.
How would let’s say the government of Arizona, handle hundreds of thousands of Arizonians descending on the State House.
What with all the evidence that is now in..politicians are cowards.
Political prisoners..the U.S. has had them since Jan 6.
The citizens of many countries know this..so have a few thousand more.
Flush these F**Kees (the enemy) out I know who will ultimately be the victor.
The FJB chant is being chanted daily, in countries other than the U.S.
I was singing it to myself today.
Done professionally it would make a terrific campaign ad.
I still believe that something will prevail for us. Why do I say this? President Trump to this day, continues to say: We caught them all. Why would he keep saying that if he doesn’t have the goods on them? With what is going on right now, timing is everything. And it is always on Trump’s time.
But PDJT and his insiders know far more of what’s going on than possibly even Sundance.
Really? I pains me more than I can say but I see DJT supporting some of the same people who got us into this mess..
Let the stone throwing begin.
Singing it or whistling it.???
Dekester, you are correct that more people are aware of the whole corrupt system worldwide.
Whether it’s Health, Education, Government, Local, State, Provincial, etc.
How it will end? That is the 64 million dollar question.
64 Trillion dollar question. All the marbles.
It would be framed as Domestic Terrorist Trump Supporters attempting another insurrection.
I agree with first sentiment. Nothing will happen to these massively corrupt officials. May the Lord rebuke them. But, the second statement is wrong. The voters have been voting these people out and that is why these hearings are being held. If nothing else, when historians look back at this time and see these videos and read these articles, they will understand how a great nation began to fall. It fell by massive internal corruption. We The People, quite frankly, did not get more involved in local politics. I understand why. We thought that politics were in, more or less, trustworthy hands. Boy Howdy, were we wrong! We need to be flooding the city halls and other local political organizations with volunteer activists. The freaks in the 60’s did it with evident success. We need to set up our own private schools and teach our own kids. We need to build private, charity hospitals to care for the sick whether your vaxxed or not. We need to organize ourselves. We need to bless our forefathers for giving us the greatest nation on earth, resolved to be worthy heirs and earn the auspice and blessings of the Almighty G-d by returning to His side and precepts.
How would they be “voted” out? With Dominion voting machines?
Dominion.
There are thousands all across the country who now share the low-probablility jeopardy of having conspired and committed felony-level election crimes. We are at the point where it is necessary to arrest, try, and imprison or execute anywhere from 5 to 35% of the national population to exact any justice at all.
The trouble is, they all feel exactly the same way. So, i guess it’s down to right, and wrong. Which each and every one of us innately knows which is which, and who is who. Us and Them.
AT 5% I just don’t see 17.5m people assisting in the steal. Maybe 500k?
And yes they should all HANG.
#WeThePeople
OK you caught me exaggerating a bit – a guy can dream! Still, it’s gotta be thousands involved in conspiracy, across 50 states, counties, and fully, completely, self-righteously willful.
When will we see the arrests happen. This is an insult to the American citizens who are expected to abide by laws, when the elected and unelected officials do not. Time for the wide west and citizen arrests to happen, if indeed our justice system is broken.
The prosecution of General Flynn demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt that our “justice” and “court” system is corrupt.
So no big deal, just obstruction of justice.
As Fletch said… “I’m not even sure that’s a crime anymore!!”
.
They were just covering up, like, you know, with a cloth . . .
… And the reason WHY they were deleted was ….. ? Not that they thought there was a loophole that let them , but why did they do it -if not afraid – so obvious / Gates is the obvious mouthpiece guy , Sellers is an old political fart who doesn’t know his ass from his elbow . A mess
Their claim was they didn’t have enough hard drive space, or something to that effect.
Best Buy is open ’till 8PM, Staples ’till 9PM. Just remember to get a receipt so we can get reimbursed………
Gates is an Attorney, the mouthpiece i.e. like I’ll circle back “Peppermint patty” Psaki
I’ll get that to you – uh huh, it’s almost the one year anniversary. And why bother to issue subpoenas if you’re not going to enforce them? What a circus, waste of time. We already know the corruption, that’s why we voted against it. Now it’s just in our face, like the entire justice system. Anyone that hasn’t seen it for what it is will not see it now. It’s demoralizing as hell, but that’s what they want so not to fight back is even more futile. Just be prepared to lose everything. If we could all stand up at once, this would be over. Or at least force them to call in the UN
Because of the debauchery of our justice system, I am beginning to understand public hangings. That would stop a lot of this crap.
That’s why the capital is fenced in with razor wire.
It would be nice if that could be used to prevent any of them escaping
Why do conservative Pundits and others constantly remind us to keep calm and don’t start anything while our country is being destroyed by ungodly and unlawful Communists?
im not so sure the time isn’t here yet.
The single answer that explains all their behavior: they are not conservative. It is more difficult for an open leftist to tell conservatives to do nothing. Therefore, all a leftist has to do is proclaim themselves a conservative pundit and then tell conservatives to do nothing. Even better, the pay for this kind of job is far better than a real conservative telling conservatives it is time to act.
But why?
Only a review if the whole if the data archived would answer that.
Also, whether archived or not…it seems it should have been turned over as part of the subpoena request .
Looks criminal at most, deceptive and unethical at the least.
Someone should be held accountable because it is fraud no matter what level.
They said it was routine.
So normally, just before an audit, they delete their information. It’s just what they do.
What law school dropout failed to subpoena the backups?
No, believe that the Board of Supervisors had a different definition of what “ALL” Election Records means.
Only 11 months to go…
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/52/20701
…And they will destroy all ballots from the 2020 election. Politicians across the country will cry tears of joy.
Imo
The entire audit turned out to be much ado about nothing…Karen Fann muzzled the Cyber Ninjas, Brnovich huffed and puffed but did nothing, the MSM successfully pushed the storyline that Biden actually won by MORE votes than initially thought and exactly NO ONE went to jail!
But boy howdy, here come the gutless Rs, hammering away on election integrity now, promising that NEXT TIME they are gonna git ’em! Just vote for us in ’22 and we’ll clean up the whole thing – this time we really, really mean it!! How many times, Charlie Brown? How frickin’ many times?!!!!!
Repeal and replace.
The audit served the intended purpose. Keeping the torch and pitchfork crowd at idle. Now that the country has suffered mortal wounds the task is complete.
These two are supposedly Republicans, actually they just reside in the right wing of the democrat party.
The recall effort against them and two other board members earlier this year failed to collect enough signatures to get their recall on the ballot.
Who counted the votes?
If I thought it would do anything, I would suggest auditing the 2018 election in AZ…But that’s ancient history.
But that election is probably deleted or they only keep records for a couple months!
Voting is so sacred and secure they use computers, internet, and have barely functioning meatheads running voting in AZ.
None of these people are serious.
Vote them out?
I don’t believe any states have opted to get rid of machines
I expect as much.
New days are coming and real hero’s.
Never give in!
Believe that the retention time is 22 months.
In my opinion should be a minimum of ten election cycles or longer. Memory is cheap, NSA can delete the electronic communications from US Citizens to free up some space.
This is what is so frustrating. It is against federal law to delete election files!!!!! For the love of Pete. The maricopa officials just admitted to breaking federal law. Would someone please enforce the law and arrest them????
You realize that the deep-state federal alphabet agencies are immersed in a swamp of corruption right? They’re running after moral hardworking taxpaying parents right now because they object to the government telling them their children are inherently evil because they lack melatonin in their skin.
I totally get it. The blatant ness of admitting to breaking the law (in the Congress where laws are made, no less) and nothing being done about it still makes me sick. And then to have the media parrot “no fraud” is beyond disgusting.
Sort of. In their pea brain minds, they thought if they MOVED the files to an archive, they would not have to submit those files. However, the subpoena specifically states that “ALL” files must be submitted…which would include the files moved onto an archive server.
Premeditated obstruction of justice.
I would like to add to Andy Biggs’ question. Over and above the existence of previous years’ election files remaining on the active servers, What was the impending election for which they needed to archive the 2020 files back in February?
It’s like a thief hiding what they stole so it doesn’t have to be turned over.
I am certain that lawfare lawyers instructed them to “archive” the files and then they would not have to turn them over. The fact that they were instructed to do it is why they feel so comfortable admitting it. They think they are so smart. Well I guess they did get away with it. Here is a question that Biggs could have asked, “if nothing was wrong with the election why did you feel the need to withhold the files from the subpoena and hide them in an archived file?”
Point the camera in the right direction and I’m sure Brnovich will happily step up. If there’s no chance for glory or more power, they aren’t interested.
Do you think Biggs cares or is he just getting his 5 minutes on the news to show he’s really doing somehting? I’m having a hard time giving GOP the benefit of the doubt. Actions speak louder than words.
The RNC (or one of the subsidiaries) raised 25mil las qtr. Who is donating to these clowns? THey won’t get my money, I’m done.
There is no rule of law in a totalitarian state.
They don’t consider it deleting. They just “moved” them to an archive. I mean he practically said, “we didn’t delete them, we just hid them in a safe place, where the auditors can’t get them, you know so the public doesn’t see the evidence of our fraudulent election.”
At least, that’s how I took it.
Look, The R’S control the Legislature and the Governorship. And the AG is an R too. So, why don’t they do something with all their power? People are talking about the “legal system”. What about the legislature?
That is where this whole thing started, back when state legislatures (with RINO’s help) allowed them to change the law before the 2020 election. And then allowed the certification of the election.
The RINOs may have been tossed some stock tips or campaign donations, all perfectly legal of course, to help the Democrats steal the election?
Uniparty. Corrupt to the bone.
Can they be arrested now for violating the subpoena now that they have acknowledged deleting the files that were part of the subpoena?
Will they be arrested?
Can they? Sure, they can. But when the corrupt are in power, through election fraud and deceit, the criminals go free and the righteous are persecuted instead.
Exactly.
We live in a country where the FBI is investigating mothers who attend school board meetings. The FBI suspects them of being “domestic terrorists.”
Some of these mothers will probably be prosecuted and imprisoned.
That’s where we live. The land of the free.
Until there’s some form of Accountability NOTHING WILL CHANGE….ONLY GET WORSE!!
Democrats have to cheat or they can’t win, and since they have no integrity they simply fabricate fallacies to “justify” their malfeasance and then engage in election fraud.
“Democrats can’t win unless they cheat. Virginia Democrats are now asking Governor Ralph Northam to waive absentee ballot witness signature requirements ahead of the gubernatorial race, citing Covid dangers. The race between Democrat Terry McAuliffe and Republican Glenn Youngkin is close and the Democrats know they have a real chance of losing so they are once again using Covid as a vehicle to cheat just like they did in 2020. Terry McAuliffe earlier this week said the quiet part out loud and admitted Joe Biden is unpopular during a zoom call.”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/10/go-va-dems-ask-northam-waive-absentee-ballot-witness-signature-requirements-governors-race-tightens-citing-covid-dangers/
This Covid is a real game changer on so many levels, isn’t it? I just hear the words “Public Health” now and I get angry. But they’ve told us what’s next – gun violence is public safety, climate justice, etc – we’ve seen Public Health suspend property rights. We need a plan to combat this coup/ overthrow of the West, I haven’t seen one.
Nothing will happen. It is time for vigilante justice. Surround these douche nozzles with 50 well-armed patriots, hand cuff them and drag them to the nearest lamp post. Who’s to stop them in the dead of nite? Why not? There’s no rule of law and who wants to try and stop them. When ROL breaks down, that’s what happens.
Arise!
How do they not go to jail. By law they have to maintain the election info for 22 months. They just admitted under oath they deleted the files. Do we not have ANY laws that exist for the swamp rats. Obviously not!!!
No they technically still have them archived.
They had an understanding issue with the word “ALL” Election Records.
I disagree, The election info was subpoenaed by the AZ senate, the Maricopa county deleted the info and did not supply it to the audit team. We found out they archived the info now, but what did they archive. Did they not archive incriminating stuff. This stinks to high heaven. Very convenient if you are covering up a crime!!!
.
See: Hillary Clinton
Your answer see J dawg above, he is right. They have played us to far too long and lied just as long we are tired and it is way past time. I do not want a war but they are pushing hard and they may get just what they ask for.
Looks like they are trying to avoid the Orange Jumpsuits by saying they just hid the files from the auditors on another server…..but, how is that not obstruction of justice?
This is the most frustrating nonsense.
When you know that these corrupt people are going to lie under oath. They know that they are going to lie under oath. They know that you know that they are going to lie under oath. Then they don’t disappoint by lying under oath.
Nauseating!
Get a Sheriff or 1 of the 99% “GOOD” Cops to do it. They’ll jump to defend our rights!
Sean said so. …BLAM BLAM!, ..BLAM TIL THEM FALL
List of House representatives who we know now have heard some of the shady dealings and no more playing dumb.They deserve a call.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_House_Committee_on_Oversight_and_Reform#Members,_117th_Congress
Were they deleted before subpoena was issued?
yes
Election data must be retained.
Well…it is still obstruction of justice for them not to provide all related files, after the subpoena was issued!
But not “deleted”. I wonder if the subpoena identified specific computers e.g. serial #s from which to provide the data.
When the board all laughed and said, so what if they catch us defying a lawful supenoa 7 months after the fact? What are they gonna do, sue us? Fire us? We have attorneys and we have the media to help us frame the narratives for the jury pool. There is literally zero downside for games for the corrupt.
.
What difference, at this point, does it make . . .?
Subpoena the archives. Let’s see what rabbit hole that will lead us down.
What is the point in revealing this lie?
The sound of their voices… they sounded defeated. Maybe they have given up trying to hide any longer.
The bad guys always manage to convince themselves they are doing good even if they break laws in the process of “doing good.” That’s somewhere lower on the food chain. At the top? The only good is that which they feel entitled. Laws do not and should not apply to them.
2020 election data is 2020 election data, regardless of what folder it’s sitting in,and regardless of what the folder is called, and regardless of what server it’s sitting on.
They have not complied with the subpoenae and should be charged. They are in contempt.
I’m reminded of the public defender’s cross examination in My Cousin Vinny, who goes into total stammer stop and exhausts himself trying to get an ineffective question out. Played brilliantly by Austin Pendleton, I believe.
What do you mean the ’64 Buick Skylark didn’t have positraction? 🙂
Zero indictments, Zero accountability…….When the ‘Top’ of the food chain is corrupt and it is…..There’s nowhere to go….
Its only a crime if the left wants it to be a crime.
Who’s going to stop them? We all know the answer.
I don’t claim to be a prophet but if there is one thing I can predict with 100% certainty, it would be this one: no one is going to be held accountable.
This is so criminally FUBAR, it would take 100 Trumps 100 years to fix this.
So when a subpoena requests “all data” any data that is archived is not considered part of “all data” it is separate stand alone unto itself! Who knew? I thought that “all data” requests meant all data archived and unarchived! Silly me!
Bubby, You don’t work with Lawfare.
You and I, other Treepers, etc. are part of the Great Unwashed Masses of Deplorables. The ones that retain that increasingly scarce commodity known as “Common Sense “
Scum.
Karen Fann’s secret deal means none of this matters in the slightest. And we already knew all this anyway.
Sellers and Gates should be tenderized with bats, then run face first into a woodchipper.
Brnovich will get right in this
Of course he won’t. I agree with you.
Reminds me of when my son was small “did you clean your room?”, “yes, it’s all done” but on inspection he just moved things from being visible on the floor to under the bed where it couldn’t be seen.
In other words, if they did not specify the exact location, the exact name of the file, etc., then these slime bags felt as though they could waste the tax payer money and squeak by without showing what really happened.
They should all be fired today. Each and every single one of them should be removed from office. NOW.
Archives are designed to be accessed, retrieved. Go after the archived data. The AZ senate needs better technical support as the archives should have been included in the subpoena
Bill Gates admitted he DELETED files off the server and HID them from auditors.
The subpoena said ALL files.
One might conjecture that they were doing that with ill intent, or at least fear with a need for self-preservation.
their return flight from DC should be met with arrest warrants as they leave the plane.
unless they are fleeing the country after DC.
So when do the executions start????????
Once they round us up.
Lies and obfuscations. It’s hard to believe, scratch that, I don’t want to believe this is our United States of America.
Breathtaking!
Get the file…QUICK!
If you want an investigation, why isnt everything subpoenaed? Why is anything allowed to be deleted if there is an active investigation. I think many of us are frustrated by the BS from all sides.
.
My first thought.
The political “incompetence” is so severe, at a point one has to think it’s deliberate.
I concluded months ago that the so-called incompetence is very deliberate.
Evil is afoot.
Agreed. As stupid as they seem they never would of made it to adulthood with out drowning in the rain!
It is not incompetence. It is deliberate, because how else could we have gotten to where we are today without severe corruption and criminal activity among ALL of out politicians.
May be a very few exceptions, like a single handful. Most are able to hide their deception and criminal activity by once in a while appearing like they are doing the correct thing. Most either arranged it that way or never follow through with the act to it’s final conclusion and it too gets swept under the rug of “ineptitude”.
TINVOWOOT
Like Mike (Pence). I’m more convinced than ever he was a poison pill in the admin. This creature is so vile, so deceptive and wan that very few caught on to him in time. He makes me ill. The R party is not going to majority us out of tyranny. They just have their own version of it.
Then why have Trump and Pence spoken at least a dozen times in the past 9+ months per their own admission?
Then why does Trump praise Pence and just says that he disagrees with Pence on certifying the Biden electors on Jan 6?
I have no idea whats going on… but President Trump’s view of both Pence and Barr is pretty favorable overall. WHY? Doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Does it make sense to you?
there are several issues that I cannot reconcile either.
to be clear, some of them have become real showstoppers for me.
I will never regret voting for President Trump.
His performance against all odds, against the most formidable offensive actions they could throw at him, and yet he not only survived, but THRIVED in the chaos. And we are all better for it.
The way I have begun to look at these issues is the way is not simply to give a free pass to these mistakes, but to recognize the reality:
President Trump, a man, a hero, was damaged in some ways by the attacks. You just can’t expect to get everything right after that kind of never ending nightmarish assault.
You ever been around someone who got the shit kicked out of them…multiple times?
it leaves marks….you aren’t the same person. You want to be the same person, but there weaknesses that start showing.
I am not saying President Trump is a defeated man..no way..I am saying that it would be most unusual for him to be the same 100 percent as we knew him walking down the escalator.
It must have taken a toll.
It makes me very angry to really contemplate the real damage this may have had on his trust in others.
I’ve seen plenty of heroes. Plenty. Worked with some even.
They all have some kind of damage from the experience. All and every single one.
President Trump is not superman and frankly we offend our sensibilities pretending he is.
If President Trump was running for office tomorrow, I would vote fast and often to get him back into power.
But FIRST I would make absolutely sure I DID MY VERY BEST TO GET WORD TO HIM about some of the issues that he has created by his association with Pence, his constant vaccination drivel, and yes praising bill bondo barr. I would pray that he reverses course on some of these issues, because they are important.
President Trump IS an enigma. With that also comes the reality that he can be wrong.
God Bless America
just like joebama’s “alleged” and so called “diminished mental capacity”!!
Ever notice when it comes to money, doing harm to others, etc he seems to get his forget me not meter readjusted to do his lying, cheat7nf, thieving and treacherous and treasonious ways without flaw –
Yes. The despicable way we exited Afghanistan proves that most of the crimes committed by our govt over the decades… were deliberate.
I told my sister that her 15 year old’s sophomore class could have devised a far better exit strategy than did the DOD, WH, US Military. It was not incompetence. It was deliberate.
I would venture that my kindergarten and first grade granddaughter’s classes could have devised a better exit strategy. I don’t know who is inept and who is just plain corrupt. Presently I believe Biden fits the first category, the generals and SOS fit the secretary and the VP and #44 are in the just plain evil category!
Are, i think you’re wrong. It was incompetence, particularly by the White House bottom feeders.
Hanlon’s Razor
That phrase is overworked. It was deliberate, clearly. WH had Trump’s plan.
Besides NO ONE would remove the military in the dead of night abandoning our AF base. .. before at least safely removing US citizens from Afghanistan, let alone all the Afghans who helped us for 20 years.
This wasn’t rocket science. No one is this stupid. It was clearly deliberate to destroy the US’s ability to be TRUSTED by any country in the future. Our word is shot to hell.
It’s actually both….my opinion.
this was fight between the military industrial complex and this adminstration.
oh so you want to end the 20 year ATM machine.
fine..hows a bit of failure on your watch?
would be a shame to have the entire world see Biden and company blow it hard.
I don’t think for a minute these people gave a moment of thought about what the world might think of military leadership.
This was sabotaging an administration for failing to follow SOP per the war pigs.
It’s very obvious to me.
It would have been the same with President Trump in his second term. They would have made sure of that.
The problem with ending wars is that it is antithetical to just about every single agent of the deep dark state. It’s about money, power, and influence.
you don’t have a war to deal with, you don’t control anything. That’s how they see it.
and this…the MANNER in which this was sabotaged WILL produce a NEW MANDATE to put troops right back in. watch for it. Pay attention. Taliban in control will GO FULL TERROR STATE…THERE WILL BE EVENTS. The CIA will make sure of that. As well the pentagon and state department.
they spent 20 years planting all the right environment FORCING NATION BUILDING NONSENSE to a radical muslim country. What could possibly go wrong?
I give it less than a year before some major event happens.
And “we” will be right back in poppy country.
bank on it.
That and a method to arm Iran, all those weapons were moving that direction before our ‘two hundred’ citizens got out.
It was
“at a point one has to think it’s deliberate”
Bingo … We have a Winner
The way I look at it, the distinction between ignorance and deliberate acts becomes less relevant the higher the level of responsibility.
Yes.
You know why. We all know why.
Please remember that when there is an official “investigation” the purpose is NOT to expose criminal activity. The true intent of a thorough investigation is to catalog exactly what information is available and confirm the players involved. At the conclusion of the investigation those players with inside connections will be protected. Those that are expendable, or low hanging fruit, will have it explained to them their compensation package, and the sh!t they’re in if they don’t take one for the team. An investigation is thorough, in that anything that is to be hidden from the public will be lost to us forever.
If one watched the video…they DID subpoena ALL ELECTION RELATED MATERIALS…the county officials after the subpoena moved the data to archive and didn’t provide it to the auditors.
Try reading and listening before commenting folks.
Good point.
and Karen Fann and the rest made sure no subpoenas issued with Detain or Seize orders, meaning they were all unenforceable.
Learning’s fun!
If you listened carefully you would have heard that the AZ Senate/Auditors subpoenaed all data from the 2020 election. This was quickly glossed over.
I would like to know why Congressman Biggs did not put on record that all election data has to be saved for 22 Months. That is federal law I believe.
Because most of our elected representatives are incompetent as is Biggs – I suspect the board members’ answer would have been that they complied with the law by archiving it and therefore it was saved.
If you listened carefully toward the end, both Biggs and Bennett indicated that they read the subpeana more broadly than the Board of Supervisors who willfully and knowingly hid and destroyed requested evidence.
I hope the AZ AG has handcuffs waiting for them since they just admitted obstruction of justice and destruction of evidence.
Democrats use that tactic often. Ex: “I didn’t have sex with that girl”. It’s all in the interpretation and they know how to use language salad. Ex: Vaccine is approved. Yes for emergency use. Full FDA approval hasn’t happened and data won’t be compiled for a few more years. Never believe a Democrat.
Did you not listen? The subpoena specifically said “all election related material”. It is a crime to delete any documents that “could potentially fall within the subpoena”.
Mr Biggs pointed out that they are lying and that there is previous election data remaining on the servers (prior to 2020) and they could not answer as to why that data wasn’t treated the same (removed from servers onto another storage base) as the 2020 election data was treated. Mr Biggs was ready and made them look ridiculous. They thought they could get away with claiming the subpoena for everything on the server didn’t mean their data storage. Well, well….
Question here is where are the referrals for criminal prosecution?
NOTHING from the 2020 elections should have been archived. All election materials must be saved for 22 months. What these supervisors are saying is that they violated the spirit of the subpoena, which is still a violation of Rule 45 – Subpoena, Ariz. R. Civ. P. 45, Sec. 5.c.2.B
(B)Form for Electronically Stored Information Not Specified. If a subpoena does not specify a form for producing electronically stored information, the person responding may produce it in native form or in another reasonably usable form that will enable the receiving party to have the same ability to access, search, and display the information as the responding person.
The Supervisors failed to do this.
Why is there no contempt of court charges, tampering with election data, altering election data, and refusal to comply with court ordered subpoena. the list of charges can go on and on, yet (CRICKETS) not a single thing, as usual nothing will come from this. AGAIN!
Yup, yup, and yup. Turns out everything IS rocket science after all. Things that seem to be simple, appear to be a legal matter, and/or would be suggestive of common sense are apparently far more complex than any of us rubes could possible comprehend.
