Broken TruthTreason or Takedown? Shellenberger Unveils a CIA-USAID Plot Against TrumpFebruary 19, 2025 House Testimony from Feb 12, 2025.On February 12, 2025, investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger dropped a bombshell before the U.S. House, accusing the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) of orchestrating an "illegal and even treasonous" campaign to impeach then-President Donald Trump in 2019. Known for exposing the Twitter Files in 2022, Shellenberger claimed this operation repurposed foreign regime change tactics against an American leader—an accusation that reignites long-standing debates about institutional overreach tied to the 2020 election cycle. His testimony, delivered in a he...2025-02-202h 22

Severed ConscienceFrom The Think Tank: Tik Tok Part ThreeIn Part Two, O asked why Dominion Voting Systems, founded in Toronto, Canada with a development team in Yugoslavia, had access to our most critical of operations. Zee reviewed the Antrim county Michigan lawsuit involving the Dominion voting machines where Alex Halerdman, an auditor appointed by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, acknowledged Antrim’s exposed computer network. With intrusion detection disabled, shared administrator passwords, and unpatched operating systems, Halderman’s statement actually corroborates that the networks would not be certified for use. O and Zee then relayed Sheriff Dar Leaf’s evidence that Serbian nationals had access to our voting data.2024-04-1935 min

Prior to FDR, in order to prohibit the use of alcohol, an amendment to the Constitution was required, and to reverse that act another amendment was needed. Using the Interstate Commerce Law, the federal government has since justified innumerable regulations.

Inconsistent testimony from cyber security expert Alex Halderman dismissed clear violations of computer network security in the 2020 presidential election in Michigan. While concerned in 2017 and 2024, magically in 2020 Halderman testified to the secure nature of Michigan election procedures. O raised the concern of a law in Michigan that automatically registers released prisoners and Indian Reservation residents with little oversight and no proof of signatures, leaving doors open for potential voter and demographic manipulation.

Every step of the way there have been efforts by voting machine companies and election officials to stop anyone from looking inside to learn how they work.

Demographics are studied to create silos and digital reservations, and we are presented with a pale imitation of the truth couched in expert lingo-ease. Since we are beckoned away from the real world, there is an attempt to change fundamental liberties while we are entertained. We are also habituated to seeking approval online and many now turn to AI to alter their behavior in order to gain popularity and promote themselves.

Cut The Crap Show w/ JovanHuttonPulitzerJudge Seals Damning Dominion Report Exposing VulnerabilitiesA cybersecurity analysis found flaws in Georgia’s voting machines and warns about the potential for future attacks. The 25,000-word report, commissioned by election integrity groups, does not touch on the 2020 results at all. But the report—authored by a University of Michigan computer science professor who has testified numerous times on Capitol Hill about U.S. election security, J. Alex Halderman—claims that Georgia’s ballot marking devices (BMDs) “suffer from specific, highly exploitable vulnerabilities that allow attackers to change votes despite the state’s purported defenses,” all by using malware.2021-08-1646 min
Innovation HubHacking our DemocracyAs the 2020 presidential election approaches, fears about the security of our democracy are heightening, particularly as COVID-19 forces us to adapt our voting practices. Many states are expanding access to mail-in voting, prompting cries of fraud from the Trump administration. But maybe it’s traditional voting machines that we should really be worried about, instead of mailed-in paper ballots, says J. Alex Halderman.

First, pirates can crawl the DHTs to build BitTorrent search engines in just a few hours without relying on the survival of any existing search engines or trackers. Second, content owners can crawl the DHTs to monitor users' behavior at large scale.The talk will start by explaining what BitTorrent DHTs are and how they work. Then, it will describe the design of our attacks, how we validated them, and how many torrents and IPs we monitored (over 1 million each...2010-10-0819 min
