For months, the White House has been delaying the release of a report on the security of Americas voting machines, led by Tulsi Gabbards national intelligence office. According to Reuters, the report did reveal some vulnerabilities, like software that could be updated. But it found no evidence of a single vote ever flipped, much less a stolen election.
Clearly, this is a big problem for the White House. For years, the president has claimed the 2020 election was rigged. But when his own government went looking for proof, they found nothing. And theyre too embarrassed to tell you.
With the report still waiting, the President decided to put Pulte in charge, and publicly told him to take a closer look at his election fraud claims. Sounds like he wants a do-over, run by an even more shameless loyalist, until the answer changes.
If that report actually backed up what the president has been saying since 2020, it would be the White Houses top priority. Instead, you are not allowed to see it. And that silence tells you everything.
White House delays release of US voting machine study as midterms near
WASHINGTON, June 19 (Reuters) - White House officials have for months delayed the release of a U.S. government report that outlines what it describes as significant vulnerabilities in the nation's voting machines ahead of the November midterms, according to three sources familiar with the matter.
The report, produced by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, concludes that voting machines could be further safeguarded by, for example, updating their software, the sources said. It does not say the vulnerabilities have led to votes flipping, but examines security gaps in how the machines are used during U.S. elections.
Some White House officials have argued the report could undermine voter confidence, particularly among Republicans. Others have said they do not believe the report goes far enough in supporting President Donald Trumps false claims that the 2020 presidential election was rigged, the three sources said. Some Democrats said privately they worried Gabbards probe into voting machines would be used by the administration to push states to use paper ballots.
Several court cases filed by Trump's lawyers failed to prove voter fraud in the 2020 presidential race.
The sources were granted anonymity to discuss internal administration deliberations.

theyll torture the data until it confesses what they want to hear.
Pultes going to take that report into a soundproof room in the basement at Langley and water board it until it screams fraudulent elections at the top of its lungs. Only then will it be released.

So, in other words, the report DOES describe significant vulnerabilities? I seriously doubt that it does so in any provable way
Seriously Reuters (and AP), of late, are always spinning up the fucking admin talking points on their behalf at the top of their articles.
