Audit results aren't in yet, so none of these claims have been made. Let's wait until the audit results come in and then discuss. By the way, you are legitimizing the audit with your constant attacks.
All sorts of conservatives groups making false election claims financial backed the "fraudit". Maricopa election audit donor list released https://news.yahoo.com/maricopa-election-audit-donor-list-025800199.html Cyber Ninjas, the firm leading the Arizona Senate's audit of Maricopa County's 2020 election, released a list of its "sponsors" on Wednesday after months of criticism over a lack of disclosures about the sources of funding for the controversial review. Doug Logan, the CEO of Cyber Ninjas, said the audit effort received $3.25 million from the America Project, nearly $1 million from America's Future, over $600,000 from Voices and Votes, $550,000 from Defending the Republic, and $280,000 from LDFFTAR/EIFFTAR. All of the supporters listed are conservative groups, some with Trump allies such as retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and attorney Sidney Powell attached to them, a review by the Washington Examiner found. One America News Network host, Christina Bobb, helped raise funds through the nonprofit group Voices and Votes, even as she reported on the audit. Not provided was a breakdown of who gave money to the groups. The more than $5.7 million in donations was added to the $150,000 paid by the GOP-led state Senate to conduct the inquiry, which has been criticized by Maricopa County officials and Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs. "As we continue our commitment to transparency, we want to take this opportunity to publicly thank and disclose those organizations that have supported us during this audit," Logan said in a statement. "The American Project has provided over 56% of the total proceeds received to date and America's future has brought in 17%." "We couldn't have done this without everyone's help," he added. Earlier in the month, Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Michael Kemp questioned Kory Langhofer, an attorney for Senate President Karen Fann, who has resisted releasing donor names. The judge noted Fann hired Cyber Ninjas, an outside firm, to conduct the audit, adding the Prescott Republican has said the inquiry is an "important constitutional duty." "Isn’t the public entitled to know who’s paying for this, besides the $150,000 the Senate has already appropriated?" the judge asked Langhofer at a hearing in Phoenix. "That’s a great political argument. They should talk to the Legislature about it," Langhofer responded. Langhofer indicated the donor records were held only by Cyber Ninjas, not the Arizona legislature. She argued this separation put the state Senate outside of the scope of the state's public records disclosure law. "The public has a right to know the information that's covered by the Public Records Act but doesn't have a right to know all the information it deems important," Langhofer told the Washington Examiner. "Particularly if that information is not in the custody of the government." American Oversight, a left-leaning watchdog group, sued the Arizona Senate for records of the audit in May. “If President Fann had kept her promise to run a transparent process, we wouldn’t be forced to go to court today,” Austin Evers, the executive director of American Oversight, said in a statement. “Instead, President Fann is playing a legal shell game — insisting that the audit is official state business when it needs to issue subpoenas, then keeping it at arm’s length to duck transparency laws.” Officials involved with the audit have predicted a report on the review's findings will be released later this summer.
More information about the "fraudit" donors... Arizona’s GOP-backed ballot review has raised more than $5.7 million in private donations, organizers say https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...b093c6-f010-11eb-bf80-e3877d9c5f06_story.html A private contractor conducting a Republican-commissioned review of 2020 presidential ballots in Arizona’s largest county announced late Wednesday that it has collected more than $5.7 million in private donations to fund the process. The controversial ballot review, which included a hand recount of Maricopa County’s nearly 2.1 million ballots and a review of ballot tabulating machines, has been underway since April. It was ordered by the state’s Republican-led Senate, which agreed to spend $150,000 in taxpayer money to fund the audit. But the Senate allowed Cyber Ninjas, a Florida-based firm hired to lead the process, to collect donations as well. It has been clear for months that the lengthy ballot review, which was conducted by dozens of workers, some working nearly round-the-clock, was being largely financed by allies of former president Donald Trump. The newly released figures put that fact in sharp relief: More than 97 percent of the audit’s costs have so far been shouldered by donations from five organizations led by people who have promoted the false claim that the election was stolen. In a statement, Cyber Ninjas indicated that $3.25 million came from the America Project, a group led by former Overstock chief executive Patrick Byrne. Byrne became a key player in challenging the legitimacy of the election after the November vote, joining former national security adviser Michael Flynn and pro-Trump attorney Sidney Powell in a raucous December meeting with Trump in the Oval Office. During the meeting, the trio urged Trump to appoint Powell as special counsel to investigate voting machines in key counties across the country. Flynn now serves as a paid adviser to the group. In June, Byrne told The Washington Post that he had personally donated $500,000 to the Arizona effort and that his group was raising money from others, too. Byrne also produced a movie alleging massive fraud in the election that featured interviews with Doug Logan, the head of Cyber Ninjas. Another $605,000 came from Voices and Votes, a group led by One America News host Christina Bobb. Bobb has used on-air appearances for the pro-Trump network to solicit donations for the group. The Post has reported that Trump’s political PAC raised about $75 million in the first half of this year, using his false claims that the election was stolen to motivate donors, but has given no money to finance the Arizona ballot review. The announcement from Cyber Ninjas came as Arizona Senate President Karen Fann announced Wednesday that the audit has concluded its public efforts — ballots will be returned Thursday to Maricopa County. The county’s Republican-led board of supervisors has been deeply critical of the effort. Fann has said a final report of Cyber Ninjas’ findings is expected in August.
They have much more money that they can raise. When the money stops, the audit will end. Riddle: If you pay a bunch of clowns, by the hour, to screw in one light bulb, how long will it take them to complete the task? UNTIL THE MONEY RUNS OUT!!
Cyber Ninja's audit funded by a wretched hive of scum and villainy. Michael Flynn, Lawyer Sidney Powell, OAN Reporters Behind Arizona Vote Audit Funding Revelations about the funders raises even more red flags over the secretive Cyber Ninjas presidential election recount. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ariz...rick-byrne-funding_n_6104afcde4b0048f361d70b1 Nonprofit groups run by a crew of radical right-wing conspiracy theorists are paying millions of dollars to fund much of the sham Arizona vote audit launched by Republican state senators, according to records released following a lawsuit demanding transparency in the process. Groups headed by former President Donald Trump’s ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn (nearly $1 million), conspiracy lawyer Sidney Powell ($550,000) and two correspondents from One American News Network ($605,000) — who gushed about the audit operation while paying for it — are among the top funders of the controversial recount by the inexperienced Cyber Ninjas company, according to the records. The unveiling of the people bankrolling the audit appears to further undermine any remaining credibility in the operation. The America Project ($3.2 million), run by former Overstock furniture company CEO and QAnon acolyte Patrick Byrne, also chipped in, making a total of some $5.7 million paid by Trump supporters who backed his lie that Joe Biden won the presidency only because of widespread election fraud. The Arizona Senate, which hired Cyber Ninjas, has allocated only $150,000 for the process. The funding numbers and documents provided by Cyber Ninjas didn’t cleanly add up, reported The Arizona Republic. Cyber Ninjas revealed funders’ identities after the Republic sued for records on the audit of 2.1 million Maricopa County votes run by CEO Doug Logan. Logan, a QAnon conspiracy theorist, was convinced before he looked at a single Arizona ballot that “hundreds of thousands” of additional votes would inevitably be found for Trump. Among multiple questionable practices, the Ninjas have exposed ballots to infrared light in a hunt for “bamboo fibers,” which organizers claim would prove interference from China. Last month, copies of voter data were spirited out of Phoenix and taken to an isolated cabin in Montana, some 1,300 miles away. The Ninjas’ recount deadline was May 14, but a report on findings has yet to be released. Logan now plans to send out workers to knock on residents’ doors to grill them about their Nov. 3 votes. Critics say that the operation hasn’t turned up a shred of evidence of Trump’s “big lie” of a rigged election and that the company is stalling for time and desperately grasping at anything to justify the multimillion-dollar contract. The Arizona vote was certified more than six months ago by Republican Gov. Doug Ducey after Biden beat Trump by 10,457 votes in the state, and several recounts failed to find any irregularities.
Fact checkers creating a narrative First they list the claim as a myth to start with, then they conclude either true or false Their counterpoints are mostly statements from the election committee which they accept as fact. There is no empirical evidence to back their statement, they don't show it
Speaking of audits, where's Trump's IRS tax returns? Oh, magically, they are still under audit and cannot be released. For what now, 6 years? All a bunch of BS. Dudes, Trump is the POTUS in 2024. Believe it.
The Manhattan District Attorney now has his tax returns and those of the Trump organization. They are currently planning indictments. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/25/trump-tax-returns-in-hands-of-manhattan-district-attorney.html Another way to look at it...they are going to cut off the head of the snake to remove the threat to Democracy. Republicans are scrambling to get the followers of Trump prior to any criminal investigations / convictions. Catering to the BIG LIE is a great way to get the followers of Trump. wrbtrader
