Maricopa IT Advisors Have a Detroit Connection and Other Troubling Revelations

During the writing of this story an AZ Senate letter was released that outlines potential county mischief with election ballots and technology.

To clarify, the Arizona Senate’s subpoena asked for, “Access and control of ALL routers…to garner the system logs”.

Maricopa County agreed to provide these routing devices so Senate auditors could access the logs themselves. The county then agreed to provide “virtual images”. The county now claims “they’ve been informed” not to provide either.

Who exactly is “informing” the county officials?

The Senate would like the routers from the Maricopa County Tabulation & Election Center (MCTEC) building. They don’t want the critical infrastructure routers from the Office of Enterprise Technology, a quarter mile away. The OET building is the county’s IT Department. It’s the central technology hub that serves over 50 county departments, including the Sheriff’s Department (see map).

OET has roughly 250 employees and lists itself as the “IT Advisor to County Departments”.

At some point election data has to leave the MCTEC building and become public. The Senate Subpoena requires the logs for any outbound and inbound election traffic, which might include logs on switches at OET, or elsewhere. It’s expected these logs might show Dominion staff in Denver remote accessing the system as they prepare for the election, which is OK, to a point. Remote access is a method Dominion’s used in other counties to correct poll pads. But Dominion had two full-time employees in Maricopa and were provided office space. Should they have needed remote access?

According to one source, “a new server was installed in Maricopa County in the Fall of 2020 by Dominion”. The county might be concerned about what will be discovered on this server. This might explain the incredible pushback on providing simple “logs”. If this server was installed in the OET building, it might show every storage device, database, Wi-fi thumb drive, and computer that accessed the election system, and when.

According to State Senator Sonny Borrelli, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (MCBOS) said “these things (routers) are ready to be picked up, they’re in a box, all you have to do is come get them”. “When we went to go pick them up, they dodged and balked in providing them to us.” Board chairman Jack Sellers then told the Senate they had “replaced all the routers after the election”. Does the county even have the routers from the election? Is Jack Sellers misinformed? Colonel Phil Waldron said: “If they can’t provide the election routers, that’s a violation of the Subpoena and a charge of contempt.”

Keith Raniere Files Appeal; Seeks to Have Conviction Overturned

Attorney Jennifer Bonjean has filed an appeal of Keith Raniere’s 2019 conviction to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

On April 19, 2018, Raniere was indicted on a number of offenses including sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy, and forced labor conspiracy. Two superseding indictments followed and Raniere was also charged with RICO conspiracy, RICO, wire fraud conspiracy, and attempted sex trafficking. After a six week trial in 2019, a jury returned a verdict of guilt as to all charges, and District Court Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis sentenced Raniere to 120 years’ imprisonment on October 27, 2020.

He is now appealing his conviction.

New Amicus Brief Exposes AG’s Bad Faith on Election Transparency

5-12-21

On Good Friday, April 2nd Georgia Attorney General (AG) Chris Carr attempted to crucify a critical transparency initiative that will help restore voter confidence in Georgia elections. Carr filed an amicus brief that day on behalf of Secretary of State (SOS) Brad Raffensperger to put the state on public record as adamantly opposing election transparency. The brief contends that Georgians have no right to view the November 3rd election ballots that four senior poll managers swore were counterfeit when auditing Fulton County mail-in ballots during a hand count audit conducted on November 14th and 15th.

While the Georgia AG has an obligation to defend the SOS if the SOS is sued, Carr is under no obligation to voluntarily file any type of brief when the SOS is not a party to the court case. But Carr not only put his own Georgia Bar number (112505) on it, the brief included the Bar numbers for Deputy Attorney General Ryan Webb (743580) and Senior Assistant Attorney General Russell Willard (760280). The brief was signed and argued (albeit ineffectively) by Assistant Attorney General Charlene McGowan (679316) during an April 13th hearing when the court ordered Fulton County to turn over ballot images.

Those images were granted to petitioners in the Fulton County mail-in ballot inspection lawsuit known as Favorito v. Cooney. The petitioners in that case immediately filed a reply brief explaining a variety of false arguments in Carr’s brief. We outlined seven false arguments in the 7th installment of our Georgia Election Integrity series. That is an average of nearly one per page for the 8-page brief...

Carr’s brief is triggering a rash of non-partisan disgust statewide. ...

Last week the Tea Party Patriots Foundation (TPPF) entered their amicus brief in support of the citizen petitioners. CDM Press exclusively learned today that they are being joined by the Filipino, Latino, Asian Movement for Empowerment (FLAME)....

The person ultimately making the argument for the SOS is his attorney, Chris Carr. ...

While amicus briefs will likely have little or no impact on the ballot inspection lawsuit, the Carr brief demonstrates how he is operating in bad faith and subverting the rights of the people of Georgia. It exposes how deep Georgia government corruption really is. We think the people who sign the petition are right. It is time for Chris Carr to return to private practice.

Republicans Introduce House Bill to Fire Fauci: “Few People Have Earned Their Termination More Visibly”

As GOP discontent with top Biden health officials intensifies, a group of House Republicans introduced a House bill Wednesday to oust White House health advisor and epidemiologist Dr. Anthony Fauci, noting that “Few people have earned their termination more visibly.”

Representative Warren Davidson (R-Ohio) is a sponsor of the bill, titled “Fauci’s Incompetence Requires Early Dismissal (FIRED) Act.” Its co-sponsors include Representative Chip Roy (R-Texas), Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), and Ralph Norman (R-S.C.).

Should it become law, Fauci would be forced to leave his job.

“In the wake of massive missteps by Dr. Fauci and his subordinates in the handling of the coronavirus pandemic, this bill addresses an oft-overlooked issue: The lack of accountability for unelected bureaucrats,” reads a press statement from Davidson’s office.

The QE Endgame: A Big Problem Is Emerging For The Fed

For the second time in three weeks, the US Treasury sold $40BN in 4-week bills at a price of 100.000% representing a rate of 0.00%. To be sure, Bills had printed at 0.000% at auction previously, but that was largely during the reserve glut days of 2015. So why now? The same reason usage of the Fed's Reverse Repo facility has soared in recent weeks from zero to over $100 billion at the end of April, hitting a whopping $235 billion today.

...as investors choose to directly transact with the Fed - where only positive rates are allowed - rather than the open market where collateral rates have frequently been negative in recent weeks as Curvature's Scott Skyrm explained in this note from April 26: "Overnight rates are low. Too low by all normal standards. The fed funds rate is well below the mid-point of the fed funds target range and the Repo GC rate is at zero; often trading negative. Zero percent interest rates are forcing billions of dollars of cash into the Fed's RRP facility."

While this This is a delightful case of deja vu irony -the Fed is taking Treasurys out of the market through QE purchases and putting them right back in via the RRP-cough see above QRB linkys - it is also distorting the Repo market, and although the Fed can fix this aberration by hiking the IOER or RRP rates, it has so far refused to do so.

But the ongoing surge in reverse repo usage masks a far bigger problem in store for the Fed, and it's why Curvature's Skyrm writes that "now is a pretty good time to start talking about the size of the SOMA portfolio, even if some people don’t want to talk about it." But the ongoing surge in reverse repo usage masks a far bigger problem in store for the Fed, and it's why Curvature's Skyrm writes that "now is a pretty good time to start talking about the size of the SOMA portfolio, even if some people don’t want to talk about it."

Why is the surge in reverse repo linked to tapering? Skyrm explains, by posting a rhetorical question: "What are the next steps for tapering purchases and what will the SOMA portfolio look like when we're done? What will the market look like?" The repo strategist then reminds us that even when the Fed starts tapering, the Fed balance sheet will continue to grow indefinitely, if at a slower pace, flooding the system with the same reserves that are now desperate to buy Bills at 0.000% or be parked at the Fed (for 0.000%).

Talk of tapering feels like when you're getting ready for a dinner out. You're ready and it's time to go. You check on your spouse and they haven't even started getting ready yet! As of last week, the SOMA portfolio stood at $7.185 trillion and the Fed continues purchases at $120 billion a month. If and when tapering starts, the purchases won't go from $120 billion to zero in one announcement. The purchases will gradually slow - going from $120 billion, to maybe $100 billion, to maybe $80 billion, to $50 billion, to $20 billion.

Let's look at some rough estimates. Assuming the Fed tapers at this schedule at each FOMC meeting beginning in June, that would mean the Fed adds about another $350 billion and ends QE in November. That's the most aggressive tapering schedule. Let's assume the Fed doesn’t begin tapering until the end of the year. That means, roughly, another $900 billion will be added to the SOMA portfolio. This is a problem, and Skyrm explains why: Even today there's barely enough collateral in the Repo market right now to cover all of the cash being invested. If volume at the RRP shot up to $235 billion today, what's going to happen when there's $350 billion fewer securities in the market at the end of the year? How about if it's $900 billion? In short, we already have a collateral shortage the likes of which are on par with what we experienced in 2015-2016.

What happens in the next 18 months when we get an additional $1 trillion in reserves sloshing around? **

FBI Warns of Prison Time If You Present a Fake Vaccination Card5-13-21

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is warning Americans about the dangers involved in the illegal sale of fraudulent COVID-19 vaccination cards and other COVID-19 scams.

Vaccination cards are intended to provide recipients of the coronavirus vaccine with information regarding the type of vaccine they received and their dates of inoculation. The creation, purchase, or sale of vaccine cards is illegal and “endangers public safety,” the FBI says.

how???

The unauthorized use of an official government agency’s seal on such cards is a crime thatmay bepunishable under Title 18, United States Code, Section 1017, and other federal laws. Penalties may include hefty fines and prison time.

isn't that only if it's a FEDERAL card??

FBI-Chicago is also warning the public that posting photographs of legitimate vaccination cards online may leave individuals vulnerable to identity theft.

Residents are encouraged to protect themselves from COVID-19 scammers in the following ways:

COVID-19 scammers = COVID SCAM RESISTORS

- Do not post pictures of your vaccination cards online. These cards may contain your name, date of birth, insurance information, or more and may be used to steal your identity or commit fraud.

- If you have already posted a picture of your vaccination card to social media, remove it immediately.

- Rely on trusted sources like your doctor, the Center for Disease Control, or your local health department for information related to the coronavirus and vaccinations. Be skeptical of unsolicited offers of miracle cures or vaccination documents.

"trusted sources" - gag me with a spoon

"Anyone with information regarding the fraudulent creation or sale of COVID-19 vaccination cards can file a report by calling 1-800-CALL-FBI."

Responses are great:

I trust the science that says we can identify as vaccinated. Problem solved.

Cause this is where we need our resources and tax dollars spent

Perfect Timing!! - The next step is to turn the vaccinated against the non-vaccinated.

Present to who? You should also go to Prison if you ask for someones vaccination card.

Oh so you can burn down buildings in "protests" but fake a vaccination card and its straight to the slammer.

Thats why i have a real one w/o getting the jab

What law is it violating?

What circumstance could we ever imagine where we might be expected to present a vaccination card?

President Trump to restart rallies next month as he plays coy about 2024 run

Former President Donald Trump will resume holding his signature rallies next month, The Post has confirmed.

Dates and locations have not yet been announced, but a source said the president’s team is in the process of selecting venues for a pair of events in June. A third rally is expected to take place around the July 4 holiday.

Trump has sat for occasional interviews since leaving office in January, but has not addressed a campaign-style rally since Jan. 6. Hours after he spoke, some of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol, attacking police officers and disrupting the congressional count of electoral votes from the previous year’s election.

The subsequent riot led to the deaths of five people and Trump’s impeachment by the House of Representatives.

The former president has not said whether he intends to seek the office he lost last year, but has repeatedly teased the possibility. Last week, he told The Daily Wire that he was “enthused” about the possibility of a 2024 run.

“I look forward to doing an announcement at the right time,” he told host Candace Owens. “As you know, it’s very early. But I think people are going to be very, very happy when I make a certain announcement. You know, for campaign finance reasons, you really can’t do it too early because it becomes a whole different thing.

“Otherwise, I’d give you an answer that I think you’d be very happy with,” he added. “So, we are looking at that very, very seriously, and all I’d say is stay tuned.”

Trump echoed that stance in an interview with WABC radio Thursday, telling host Rita Cosby, “I think people will be very happy with my decision … I’ve done a great job for the American people. They understand that … I look forward to making people very happy.”

Earlier this week, Trump traveled from his home at Mar-a-Lago in Florida to his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., where he is expected to spend the summer
