In reply to the discussion: Senate Republicans unveil $72 billion spending package, including a $1 billion line item for Grampy's ballroom [View all]Botany
(77,723 posts)31. The GOP owns both Dominion Voting Systems and E.S.& S. Voting Systems. In 2024 they had firmware
patches on their central tabulators and operating systems. Do not be surprised even with Trump and
the G.O. P.s numbers in the toilet if they win this fall and our republican run and owned media will sell
the story that the dems just couldnt get the needed turn out. Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Palantir, and Musks
DOGE Boys/Ballotproof are into our voting systems and data big time. Trump and the DoJ trying to get
voter lists right now are all about finding what #s they have to hit to win again.

It was a lie like Mexico paying for the wall. And It's not just the ballroom, it's also the Hitler Bunker underneath.
