Exclusive: Text messages reveal Trump operatives considered using breached voting data to decertify Georgia’s Senate runoff in 2021

In mid-January 2021, two men hired by former President Donald Trump’s legal team discussed over text message what to do with data obtained from a breached voting machine in a rural county in Georgia, including whether to use it as part of an attempt to decertify the state’s pending Senate runoff results.

 

The texts, sent two weeks after operatives breached a voting machine in Coffee County, Georgia, reveal for the first time that Trump allies considered using voting data not only to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, but also in an effort to keep a Republican hold on the US Senate. 

 

“Here’s the plan. Let’s keep this close hold,” Jim Penrose, a former NSA official working with Trump lawyer Sidney Powell to access voting machines in Georgia, wrote in a January 19 text to Doug Logan, CEO of Cyber Ninjas, a firm that purports to run audits of voting systems.

Well like the ‘man’ said:

 

“All I want to do is this: I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have.”

It is perhaps academic.

 

Apparently Georgia is on the verge of passing legislation which will allow the state government to dismiss county District Attorneys.

 

The case against Mr Trump is led by a county District Attorney.

 

The problem will go away.

Rugs and brooms are very important tools when the minority insists on governing.

It's not really that academic. It looks like Trump et al are likely to be charged with racketeering over this very crime.

 

The Fulton County probe expanded beyond the Trump phone calls to include false claims of election fraud to state lawmakers, the fake elector scheme, efforts by unauthorized individuals to access voting machines in one Georgia county and threats and harassment against election workers.

If that's true, the Fulton County DA just needs to turn over her evidence to Mr. Jack Smith.  I'm sure he'll know what to do with it.
