You ever see this guy with the pillows on Fox?
My pillow guy, Mike Lindau.
He is the greatest.
My pillow guy, Mike Lindau.
And he's been with us right from the beginning.
♪♪ Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Lundell Report.
I'm Pat Colbeck filling in for Mike tonight.
And the reason Mike's not here is because he's got a lot of exciting stuff happening that is good for the election integrity movement happening in the background.
I'm not going to steal Mike's thunder on it because I know he's going to want to talk about it.
But tonight we've got a very exciting show.
First of all, we're going to talk about the news of the day, which is on everybody's mind.
Everybody's talking about it, and it's one of those events that, when it occurs, the world stops.
Unless you're in the mainstream media, that is.
The world stops and considers what's really happening here, because, of course, I'm talking about the second attempted assassination of Donald Trump out on the golf course, out in West Palm Beach, Florida, which also, by the way, is right where my My sister lives right in that area here, so this is hidden close to home in many different ways.
There's a lot of information that we want to share tonight about that, and make sure you guys have the latest and greatest information.
But also, we're going to go over Something that we haven't talked a lot about on this show.
We talked about it a couple of Mike's summits over the past couple of years, but it bears repeating.
It deals with an organization called the Center for Internet Security, and there was a recent news bulletin that came out from them or an advisory claiming that the Election Crime Bureau that I helped Mike out with here as part of Lindell management It's the Center for Internet Security is accusing us to try to spoof, to having had spoofed their website and trying to pretend that we're them, which is complete balderdash.
We'll go into the details of that here in just a little bit.
And then we're going to wrap up the second half of the show here talking about Some of the legal actions that are being taken before the election that we hope can get us some measure of fairness in the election outcome.
So three big stories today we want to go over and who knows what else might get sprinkled in in the middle there.
But we want to talk about Donald Trump and the latest assassination attempt against him.
Also, we want to talk about the Center for Internet Security and why that is a very, very important organization in context of this upcoming election.
And then last but not least, we want to talk to Brad Geyer with the former Federal Prosecutors Group about some of the efforts that they're doing in conjunction with not just only with the folks out at Lindell Offense Fund, and Cause of America, helping them carry forward some lawsuits before the election, but also some other information about that group that I think you're gonna be interested in.
So, without further ado, you know, if we could call up the Gateway Pundit story, because I think Gateway's been all over this topic of what's going on with this second assassination attempt against President Trump.
I think for anybody paying attention, they understand that, you know, they've got this candidate called Kamala Harris on the ticket.
She didn't win one vote in the Democratic primaries, and she was practically anointed at the Democratic convention.
Democrats obviously understand that she's not the candidate that's going to get them across the finish line in a fair election.
So they appear to be dedicated to making sure that she doesn't have any competition and that that would kind of Be supported by the fact that there's been two assassination attempts against President Trump.
The last at Trump International Golf Course out in West Palm Beach, Florida that took place over the weekend on Sunday.
I was having lunch with some friends of ours and right after we got home we got a text from the same friends and This is amazing that it happened.
Now, there's TVs all over the restaurant that we had at the time.
None of them had any breaking news.
They're all focused on the football game or baseball game.
It's like a big nothing burger to the mainstream media that a former president, and I would assert that there's a good case to be made for him being the current president of the United States, having been the target of a second assassination attempt out on the golf course.
It's kind of big news.
And the fact that it wasn't breaking was kind of concerning.
There's a lot of concerning aspects around this.
First and foremost, that this guy had a sniper's nest set up on the golf course, essentially on a public street along the fence line.
And there's a lot of unanswered questions.
around how was a sniper's nest allowed to be set up on the golf course or just outside the golf course on this fence line in clear view of the golfers on the course.
They used to take photos from this same vantage point or nearby all the time to take pictures of Donald Trump while he's golfing.
It kind of makes sense that somebody might take out something besides a camera in today's environment to take a shot at the president, and yet he was allowed to set up a sniper's nest for almost half a day without any sort of action.
That's a concern, but I'll tell you, I think one of the most concerning aspects of this whole story And especially even in light of everything we just talked about, the fact that a sniper was there for half a day and also that the news didn't think it was a big deal to make a big deal out of the second assassination attempt.
I think something that's even more concerning is the fact that this gentleman was apprehended.
His name is being conveyed as Ryan Wesley Root.
He was, when he was arrested, he was in charge with the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
Despite a lot of social media posts and other evidence that seemed to indicate that his intent was not exactly chummy towards the President of the United States, Donald Trump.
He was only charged with two firearms violations by the federal government.
Now, I've heard some of the interviews with state officials, and they had to cede authority over the prosecution and on detainment of the individual to the federal government, but they could have obviously have gone in and submitted additional charges to that effect, but really, you know, they just put in a couple charges related to firearms possession.
So, guys, this is...
We're in some pretty scary times right now, and it does not appear that our federal government is doing what it needs to be.
Now, I want to be very clear.
President Trump has been very full of praise for all the Secret Service personnel that were with him.
It was an advanced team on that or advanced individual on the hole in front of him that noticed the rifle coming out of the fence, according to stories.
So there were some Secret Service personnel that were very alert to what was going on and And thankfully they were able to prevent any direct attempt on the life of President Trump.
But guys, there's just something concerning that we've even gotten this close to that incident a second time yet with our president.
And just continued prayers for President Trump and his family.
This is a Concerning to those of us who appreciate the rule of law and law and order, and the fact that this gentleman was apprehended is very much appreciated.
That was as a result of A tip provided by a bystander that took action, and there's an old expression that says, see something, say something.
We're in that mode of operation, and not just when it comes to attempted assassination attempts on the president, but also when it comes to anything we see regarding election fraud or anything like that.
Guys, we cannot afford to be silent anymore.
And which is kind of my segue into the next segment here.
And the next segment deals with an organization called the Center for Internet Security.
And it's a this organization comes into the picture.
As a result of a 2017 designation by Secretary Johansson from DHS that designated our election systems as a critical infrastructure component for the United States.
And when you're designated a critical infrastructure component, You are authorized to have the formation of what's called the Information Sharing Analysis Center.
Now all critical infrastructure, some other critical infrastructure components that we have are like our energy sector is a critical infrastructure.
We can't afford to go have the electrical grid go down on us.
Well, the The our elections were designated as a critical infrastructure back in 2017.
And so they were given the opportunity for this information sharing analysis center.
It's called an E.I.
Isaac Center, which stands for the Election Integrity Information Sharing Analysis Center.
And in order to run that organization, that's where the Center for Internet Security comes in, because the federal government under DHS contracted out with this group called Center for Internet Security to secure our election systems, which we're told are not connected to the Internet.
So in steps Center for Internet Security.
And this is a 501c3 organization that is based out in Greenbush, New York.
And some of the services that they provide are endpoint security services and 24-7 monitoring service of the election system infrastructure for counties, municipalities, and even state-level governments in all 50 states all across America.
So these guys essentially are allowed to tap in as a third party non-government organization into all the sensitive election records being transferred all across America at the county level, state level, and all across America.
That means that this organization, this non-government organization that is not subject to Freedom of Information Act requests, are privy to sensitive election records like our voter registration data, our poll book data.
They understand who's voted and who hasn't voted before anybody else out there in the general public.
They also have access to tabulator data.
They have access to election night reports of vote tallies.
So they are, and they also have access to all the communications between election officials, so they are tapped into the nerve center of elections under the auspices of securing our elections.
And for some people, like myself, we find that kind of concerning that a This non-government organization has privileged access to this information that many of us, through the FOIA process, have no access to, and that can be a bit concerning.
So, flash forward to last week, and Mike, as one of the efforts that he's funding through the Lindell Offense Fund, through some of the generous gifts of a lot of people listening to this program, he's been able to enlist the services of a program called CiviClick, and CiviClick enables us to reach out and connect with all county, state, and federal elected officials and provide information to them, conduct surveys forwarded to them.
Essentially, it sets up a a communication outreach channel that we didn't have before CiviClix and this is really important for making sure that our elected officials are aware of key events and also it's a way of understanding what the temperature in the room is, so to speak, of some of our elected officials regarding our elections and also
Most recently, we sent out a survey last week just asking them, are they members of this Election Integrity Isaac Center?
Because there's not a list of members sitting up on the EI Isaac site or a CIS site of who's actually a member of this organization.
Because if you're a member, you know, and you've deployed these Albert Centers, which is one of the other questions that we asked them, you know, you're You're giving this non-government organization access to all these sensitive election records.
So we just sent out a simple survey asking these government officials if they're members of the EI Isaac Center, and if they are, have they installed the Albert sensors?
So you would have thought that we kicked the hornet's nest with that simple request because in the wake of us sending that message out to all those elected officials, The Center for Internet Security issued a bulletin, and that's what I'd like to bring up on the screen now, if we could, Apollo.
So in this Center for Internet Security bulletin, they actually chose to accuse the Election Crime Bureau of trying to impersonate the Center for Internet Security In our solicitation for information, and you know, I'll leave it to you to judge whether or not that was being done.
I can tell you from my perspective, there's no way in heck you could make that assertion with a straight face.
But that's what they're attempting to do, is portray us as masking the Election Crime Bureau as the Center for Internet Security.
They say we're impersonating them.
And I'll tell you, let's look at, if we scroll down here, here's the actual message that was sent out.
First of all, in that message you'll see very clearly that it's got the Election Crime Bureau sitting Right up at the top.
And all we're doing is simply asking them and we're giving them some information about the fact that we're looking for and understanding who's a member of the EI Isaac Center.
I have a 2022 membership list of the EI Isaac Center that lists about 2,173 organizations.
Across all 50 states, including over 2,000 counties.
Sorry, over 1,500 counties, I think.
Anyway, it's a lot of entities.
They have a pretty good footprint across the board.
I wanted to see if that data was still accurate, if that number has grown, if it's shrunk.
And so we sent out this note, and in it we provided a link to a survey where they could actually just answer those two simple questions.
Are you a member of the EI Isaac Center?
And if so, have you installed their Albert sensor?
Now they're calling it something like a Falcon sensor, because we've been getting out the word on Albert sensors, I guess.
But if you just scroll down there a little bit, I mean that's all there really is to it.
You'll see the actual survey questions here, There's a form in here so that we know who actually sent us the information when they submit the survey, so we can trace it back to that particular community.
That's all it's in there for, but guys, this isn't rocket science.
We literally just went out and asked them a question, but apparently asking questions is not allowed in today's America.
And by the way, Along those lines, I highlighted how this Center for Internet Security was at, they have access to all of our sensitive election records all across the country.
But when I'm talking about the fact that they don't want us to have access to information, you know what else Center for Internet Security is involved in?
They're involved in an organization called the Election Integrity Partnership.
And if you go out to the Congressional website and you go navigate out to the Weaponization of Government Subcommittee website and look at all the reports that they have listed, one of the reports that they have listed deals specifically with this Election Integrity Partnership that the EI Isaac Center and the Center for Internet Security have helped them, are instrumental players in this partnership.
And the purpose of this partnership, ostensibly, is to Curb the dissemination of misinformation and disinformation regarding the conduct of our elections in America.
In other words, they want to make sure that people like myself, like Mike Lindell, like many of you that are listening here today, are not allowed to share the information that we have regarding election fraud, regarding simple questions that we have about how our elections are being conducted.
This organization, Center for Internet Security, in the report issued by the United States Congress, actually Uh, I talked about this concept for creating a misinformation reporting portal.
In other words, that's their help desk, if you were the ticket system, so that when somebody like myself or Mike says, Hey, these election, um, systems are connected to the internet that we shouldn't be doing that.
Um, they'll flag that as an incident, put it inside their reporting tool and work it up the line.
You guys already saw a little bit more media attention about this when it came to the topic of Twitter files or how Facebook was engaged in censorship.
Guys, that was at the center of this report.
That's what they were talking about and what's really concerning about this organization is that they actually proposed the development of this misinformation reporting portal to the federal government And what it demonstrates is collaboration between the federal government and private entities, non-government organizations, to censor free speech and prevent the seeking of redress of grievances by our citizens.
Blatant First Amendment right violations, yet they're involved in it.
And to Congress's credit, They did a very detailed professional report out on exactly what they found, including a lot of emails that corroborate exactly what I just said.
These guys were at ground zero of this censorship campaign, so it should be no surprise that they put out a bulletin that was full of misinformation, claiming that Mike and myself and the Election Crime Bureau as a whole were conducting a misinformation campaign.
That's a good precursor to what we're going to be treated to over the next few months.
I'm not just talking about up to the election on November 5th, but I'm talking about after the election as well.
Their censorship campaign is ramping up and I wanted to make sure that we put a spotlight on the Center for Internet Security because You know, for me, this is the organization I've been looking at for a few years now, and it fits, checks all the boxes for the type of organization that I would be very concerned with in regards to having access to a sense of election information across all 50 states.
If you wonder how a Five, all the battleground states stopped counting at the same time in the middle of the night.
Well, somebody's got to have centralized access to data.
The Center for Internet Security seems to fit that bill.
Now, that doesn't mean that the CIS group or the people working there are complicit in the overthrow of the United States government.
The fact that they are pulling in all that information, censored election information, into a single environment also makes them a very Um, rich target for anybody that has maybe an advanced persistent team from a nation state like China or Iran.
Um, so all they have to do is tap into that little nexus of information and they have access to all the information they need to go off and steal an election.
So, um, don't know if any of that stuff is true.
Um, but I'll tell you they have created the conditions to enable that to be true.
And I believe that it warrants further investigation, but as you can tell from this little bulletin that the folks at Center for Internet Security put out, They don't want anybody looking into them.
They don't want anybody talking about it.
And what they've effectively tried to do is shut down that communication channel that we have with elected officials.
They don't want us talking to the county officials.
They don't want us talking to the state officials.
They don't want us talking to the federal officials and providing them an outside source of information about the operations of this organization, the Center for Internet Security.
Well, I'm here to tell you, You know they we are going to be telling that story whether they like it or not and if you go to the electioncrimebureau.com and if you go over under the initiatives menu
What you will notice is that we've got, sorry, under the advisories, sorry, if you go under the advisories menu, click on that, and you'll see a lot of information that the guys out at the Center for Human Security, a lot of our electronic voting system vendors, they simply do not want you to get access to this information.
Well, we're putting it up on the website anyway.
And there's a particular technical advisory put out from the Election Crime Bureau that you can go off and read it right now at the Election Crime Bureau and you'll find out a lot of information about the Center for Internet Security and why it deserves and merits further investigation by our citizens at large but also by our elected officials.
So just encourage you guys to all get out there and check into what's going on out at the Election Crime Bureau and there's a lot of other
information out there for you that I think you'll find useful as well.
So, you know, we could be digging into the CIS stuff for quite a while, but there's something else that they've done.
And apparently they have some friends and partners that are just, they're just playing dirty.
It certainly looks like they're playing dirty this election system right now, because, uh, that same website there that we're pulling up in, in this show, um, depending on who you're, uh, Computer security software is a you will when you attempt to navigate to that site is going to flag it as a malicious URL.
Guys, we've done screening on it.
We've had the IT guys that are experts on it.
Mike, he's attacked by everybody all over the place.
And they've gone off and examined the Election Crime Bureau site.
There's no malware that they've been able to detect on the site, yet it's still flagged as a malicious URL.
Well, you know, you don't need malware on the site anymore to be flagged as a malicious URL.
Somebody can claim that you're putting out misinformation.
You know, somebody like the folks out at Center for Internet Security, for example.
We've traced back this flag or this malicious URL to an organization called CRDF, which is a private vendor that specializes in security software that's based in Paris, France.
So our friends in France apparently have decided to list our website as a malicious URL, ostensibly on the basis that they don't like the information that we're sharing there.
Guys, this is what we're up against in this upcoming election, but this is why Mike formed Frank Speech.
This is why he put together a platform to go around this censorship mechanism.
That's why he purchased Frank Social, so that you have a big tech platform, a social media platform that can allow you to put out information that they don't want you to hear.
Uh, this is what Mike's all about.
He thrives on when somebody tries to, uh, go off and, um, tell them, and he can't talk about something because he uses that as an opportunity to talk about it.
And, uh, I'll tell you, he's got courage and I appreciate it.
And a lot of people that are listening right here, uh, have courage as well.
If you want to continue to support Mike's efforts along those lines, And support him being able to provide tools like the Civic Click platform, provide tools like the Frank Speech platform, Frank Social platform.
Guys, all this stuff costs money.
So if you're able to support his efforts, please go to lyndellplan.com and click on that donate button.
When we get back, we're going to talk about one of the other many efforts that Mike is funding, and it deals with providing our state grassroots activists with legal and legislative advice, strategy advice, all across the country.
And one of the organizations that's been engaged in that, through another party called North American Law Center, but through the organization called the Former Federal Prosecutors Group.
They are our boots on the ground actually developing and preparing lawsuits that we're filing to before the election in 2024 to make sure that we have a fighting chance at a fair election this upcoming election season.
And so when we get back, we're going to talk to Brad Geier of the former Fed Prosecutors Group.

Welcome back everybody.
This is Pat Colbeck filling in for Mike Lindell on the Lindell Report.
And the first half of the show, we went over the news of the day, which is pretty much focused on the second attempt to assassinate our president, Donald J. Trump, and also gave you a little bit of background information on an organization that many of you may not have heard about called the Center for Internet Security.
But it's an organization that I encourage you to do your research on.
There's a lot of information about this organization and you can start by going to electioncrimebureau.com and go under our advisories there and particularly zoom down into the advisory on the Center for Internet Security.
They do not want you to know what they do and how intimate they are with the information regarding our elections and they don't want you to know their role in the censorship.
of folks like myself and Mike Lundell when it comes to discussing election fraud topics.
So really important organization to research and I'll tell you when you run up against bad guys that want to take away your voice and take away your free speech, it really helps to have some principled lawyers on your side.
And my next guest here is Brad Geyer with a organization called the Former Fed Prosecutors Group.
And these guys are involved in a lot more than election fraud.
We've engaged them on the topic of election fraud recently, but their history goes on.
back much further than the topic of election fraud, and we're going to get into that a little bit when we kick things off here with Brad.
But first, I want to welcome Brad Geyer of the former Fed Prosecutors Group to the Lindell Report.
Thanks for coming on, Brad.
Thanks for having me on, Patrick.
It's an honor and a privilege to be with you tonight.
Well, it's been a blessing to work with you over the past few months on various initiatives.
And I tell you, it's really good to have principled lawyers out there on your side, looking out for the best interests, not just of Mike and our grassroots activists, but all of America.
You guys are focused first and foremost upon restoring some appreciation, some measure of appreciation for the rule of law.
And I think we've lost that a little bit, particularly with the crazy light charges against this would-be assassin of President Trump, where they just got him on firearms charges.
This is a little ridiculous.
So before we get into everything you guys are doing on election fraud, I find your background and the story behind the former Fed Prosecutors Group pretty fascinating.
I think a lot of listeners to the show might find it fascinating as well.
I was wondering if you could maybe give us a little bit of background on who exactly is the former Fed Prosecutors Group and how did you form?
Well, I was 21 years with the U.S.
Department of Justice in the antitrust division, the criminal division, and also I was in many U.S.
attorney's offices doing procurement fraud, grant fraud, and science fraud.
And in 2009, what people don't realize is criminal enforcement in those areas was basically Uh, curtailed significantly to pretty much being shut down or the, the, um, the case filings dropped off a table in about 2009 when all the reforms could be unveiled.
Refresh everybody's memory.
Oh yeah, right.
It was under the first Obama administration, and one of the things, for better or for worse than he did, is he went to a compliance model which, you know, they stopped criminally enforcing fraud, corruption, etc., and they convinced themselves that they could train people out of the inclination to commit fraud, and it's devastated all of our systems.
Flash forward to 2000.
It fundamentally transformed the Department of Justice.
That's one way of putting it, right?
In my opinion, that's exactly what happened.
And unfortunately, in early 2020, I left the department in 2012.
In 2020, I was in Asia in February, and all the doctors there knew about hydroxychloroquine.
They told me that COVID-19 didn't bother them at all.
They just sipped warm tea all day and took one hydroxyl chloroquine a week.
So, over the next couple of months, it was clear to me something was very wrong when I was seeing the behavior of.
Of our government, and I was outside all the algorithm and algorithmic protocols of of, uh, you know, the, the.
Social media platforms, like, like Facebook and Google, so I had a pretty clear shot on what was actually happening in the US.
And it was alarming.
So you've been out of the Department of Justice for about eight years at that point in time, and you just had a very practical exposure into some of the things that were going on, frankly, around misinformation and malpractice regarding the treatment of COVID.
And as a lawyer, you kind of got the spidey senses tingling, saying something ain't right.
And so we started creating news groups on Facebook and trying to get the word out about early treatment on Twitter.
And we know what happened there.
We got shut down.
That ultimately resulted in a suit against Facebook in December of 2020 that we had to dismiss without prejudice.
We're looking to refile it.
And then by... Did you get a chance to listen to the first half hour by any chance?
No, I was prepping up for my talk.
Well, the reason I brought that up, and I'm sorry to interrupt you on this, but it's important because it ties into what you were just talking about.
That censorship program around treatment for COVID was done under the guise of something called the Virality Project.
And before the break, I talked about an organization called the Election Integrity Partnership.
Well, guess what?
The Verality Project was run by the same cast of characters that the Election Integrity Partnership was.
So this censorship complex, this Ministry of Truth complex that they installed at the federal government, not only was addressing, and is addressing to this day, misinformation, disinformation campaigns around the elections, but They also, to you, what you discovered firsthand was that they were doing the same thing regarding how to save people's lives who were contracting COVID.
Sadly, our efforts were shut down by Facebook, and so in 2021, we rebooted, and our members now are thousands of people who were prevented from getting the message about early treatment, widows of the hospital treatment protocols.
We believe that very few people, if any, Died from covid they actually died from the treatment the venting remdesivir, which is a deadly drug.
Do not get remdesivir.
You can buy a bracelet from our organization.
That's an allergy bracelet and their state states are not allowed permitted to give you a drug.
You're allergic to and basically, we're, we're volunteer driven.
They took the reins.
I jumped into January 6th.
We started dismantling the January 6th narrative.
We're still working at that.
And we jumped in on a number of different areas legally.
And it's exactly as you say, you know, there aren't that many people on this side.
To a large extent, we've been platformed.
You and Michael Lindell were way out in front on the election integrity fight.
I mean, you guys are like pioneers.
I wish we didn't have to be.
Right, I mean it's just it's really sad and the reason that that we we jumped in on the Michigan case and and we're looking to file a U.S.
Supreme Court case.
Before you jump into that just highlight that there are you know we tasked the the organization that Mike brought in to provide legal strategy for not just all the states but also for the Election Crime Bureau We tasked them with identifying kind of a key election lawsuit that we think could get traction and have an impact in all 50 states.
And the targeted state, because of the information we had, because some of the actions, egregious actions of our elected officials, seem to be prime for the picking on this.
One of the lawsuits that you helped us out with here is the plaintiffs are a group of citizens called the Concerned Legal Michigan Voters, CCLMV.
And if you go to cclmv.com, you can find more information about this group.
But you came in to provide the legal counsel and assistance for them.
And so maybe kind of go in a little bit why this is such an attractive case and an important case and what impact you think it will have.
Well, and for anyone who's a Michigan citizen who wants to become a plaintiff, they're welcome to go to electionintegritymi.org and sign up.
170 of your fellow citizens are authenticated as our clients.
We filed this in the beginning of July and, you know, the court, it has its schedule, but it doesn't seem like it's on an expedited track, shall we say.
I just want to clarify, you filed it with the Michigan Supreme Court, so you did an emergency plea to the Michigan Supreme Court for them to hear this, and what are the key remedies we're seeking in this case?
Um, really revocation of a state election integrity amendment, which, which does the exact opposite.
And we lay it out in our suit that the election integrity amendment actually had about 10 sub parts.
And it sounds, you know, it's, it's, it's to clarify.
Sorry, Brad, that's an amendment to the Michigan constitution.
So they amended the Michigan constitution via ballot proposal.
And, uh, and we're challenging the method by which that was put on the, uh, that was passed.
Yeah, it was basically, we believe it was snuck past the voters.
If you paid attention to what was in front of you, you would have been, in a well-intentioned manner, you know, you would have authorized it.
But when you read the fine print, so to speak, it's really a wolf in sheep's clothing.
And it has nefarious effects, the consequences of which aren't even fully clear.
Um, but we know some of the more egregious ones.
I mean, there's, like, for instance, just as one example, it eliminates or certainly significantly encumbers the ability to audit any election results.
I mean, I don't know when banning audits has ever been a good idea in American history.
You know, as a general rule, we want to move towards transparency and then, you know, having so much faith in the results that it can withstand an independent audit.
But this particular voter integrity amendment You know, prevents that from happening in a number of different ways.
Well, you know why they did that, Brad, right?
I mean, they did that because that was a remedy being sought in the Antrim County lawsuit that Bill Daley filed.
And he called for an audit of statewide election results, which was guaranteed in our Constitution.
So they immediately got to work on coming up with an amendment saying, no, no, no, no, no, we don't want that to be done, and the way that they worded it, you're right, it was nefarious, because they made it seem like you still had a right to an audit of the statewide election, but they put on quite a few stipulations here that hid how that would actually be conducted.
There's other things like, for instance, they allow signed statements in place of other verified forms of identification.
They seem to have an allergy, for instance, to driver's license.
It seems to be an affliction that, you know, has taken over the country like COVID did.
But there's just a whole series of voter ID in the Constitution.
They didn't really outlaw it, but the way that they passed it in the amendment is, oh, you hit the word nefarious.
They used the key word voter identification, but then they provided the but statement that allowed them to use pretty much anything that they wanted to say, including just an affidavit saying, no, I am who I am.
And and with no proof of identification, it was ridiculous.
So anyway, we filed this.
Actually, it was filed pro se in July, and it was clear it was going to be dismissed unless an attorney entered an appearance.
Because this is a core, fundamental civil liberty upon which our entire system is based, I was granted the authority to enter an appearance.
It was my honor to do so, and we're hoping that the Supreme Court admission is going to give us a hearing very soon.
It's got to be real soon, because what would happen in this case is that we'd have an injunction on the implementation of all the laws and subsequent rules and procedures that have been enacted on the basis of this.
And, you know, our Secretary of State is probably going to claim, we can't do that.
It's just not enough time to go off and create new rules.
You don't have to create new rules.
Just go back to what they were prior to the adoption of this amendment and just dust them all off from your old Microsoft Word versions.
and put them into place and make sure that everybody had access to them.
So we got our work cut out on that, but that's not the only thing that you're engaged in.
There's another bigger effort, frankly, that has just started to begin as that initial case with the CCL&Bs is waiting attention from the Michigan Supreme Court.
We've got another one that's targeting the Supreme Court of the United States.
Maybe give some people some insights into that case.
Yes, so, you know, this electronic voting machines issue is very interesting because there's this organization, a government organization known as CISA, C-I-S-A, and it purports to oversee and make recommendations to the states about what they're authorized to do in terms of procurement of voting machines and how these things should be administered.
But they're sort of like advisory guidelines, as I understand it, and After all these things had been authorized to go to the states and after they'd been pretty much implemented in many states, it turns out that there's a significant vulnerability to hacking.
Now, that may surprise people watching this because you've probably seen or heard a lot of things where various representations were made in various forms, including under oath in courts.
Um, saying that these voting machines don't have the capability to access the Internet.
But that clearly isn't true.
And we have experts that say that we have.
Executives in counties around the country who are very concerned about how these things operate and it's so bad that.
SISA had to, they created a nonprofit known as CIS, which has no accountability.
There's no inspector general that's overseeing its operations and it has been tasked with the responsibility of developing a patch.
That allegedly protects the underlying systems from encroachment or hacking.
Now, again, these systems aren't even supposed to access the Internet.
So why why there's reams of of words and data and flowery language and word salad.
About accessing the Internet is anybody's guess because they're not supposed to do that.
So we've, we've put this all into a written prohibition, the Supreme Court, which is, I guess, a version of a Hail Mary pass, hoping that 1 of the Supreme Court justices who beckons from a friendly circuit.
We're hoping on the conservative side will agree that this is a matter that should be heard.
And again, the reason we're here is we are pro stability.
And when you have what really got our attention was the president of the United States in interview.
Said that he couldn't guarantee stability under certain electoral situations.
That's that's unacceptable.
And, you know, many people, including somebody who has the impact and the, um.
Public awareness of Elon Musk, even I saw.
A few weeks ago, he tweeted that he thought we were on the path to the Civil War.
Just to be clear, we're totally opposed to Civil War.
I personally am a conscientious objector by my nature.
We're for stability.
We're for voter integrity.
We're for everybody being able to agree that whatever the outcome is, that we can all rely on it and take it to the bank as being authentic.
Certifiable and proper and anything short of that That can be fixed in advance, by the way.
These are proactive efforts to fix these problems in advance.
We're not challenging anything that happened in the past.
We're challenging, we're looking at our crystal ball and saying, hey everybody, this is a little bit scary.
There's some people that have concerns about how this thing's being administered.
Please, a responsible adult, step in and put in some protections to protect our most sacred institution.
That is the vote.
And so some of the remedies we'd be seeking in that particular case is an injunction upon the use of the machines, either a temporary one or permanent one, until they can address these vulnerabilities that everybody knows already exist.
I mean, here you've got this non-government organization called the Center for Internet Security.
Security in these election systems, we're told, are not connected to the Internet.
There's vulnerabilities associated with those communications in and of themselves.
Even if it's a completely secure pathway between point A and point B getting up to the CIS, who's in that CIS?
Who actually works for them?
Who are the contractors that have access to this information?
Do we know who they're sharing that information with?
Do we know if third parties like an advanced persistent threat from China or Iran have access into the CIS network?
No, we don't know any of that.
And so that's a reason for concern.
These are all risks.
These are all security vulnerabilities that are only introduced when you use electronic voting systems.
If you're doing a hand count of paper ballots with voter IDs, you don't run into these issues.
We just borrow all these new issues and new risks to the vulnerability of our elections just by adopting electronic voting systems, which is why Mike and many others like myself are so darn opposed to these.
I'm an aerospace engineer.
I've helped design cabling systems on the International Space Station.
I'm a certified Microsoft small business specialist.
You can't accuse me of being a Luddite in any stretch of the imagination.
Yet, unfortunately, I think the more you know about this, the more you know that we cannot secure them adequately, and the more we need to get rid of them, because the risks far outweigh the benefits.
Yeah, the more we dug into this, and it's funny you referencing yourself as a Luddite, I think you may know more about this than most anybody I know.
But it's every stage of the process.
It's at the vote collection process.
It's at the vote count process.
It's where the data is aggregated.
It's how it's aggregated.
It's where it's stored.
Um, and there's really no standards that anybody can agree on.
It's anybody's guess.
And the oversight.
By a nonprofit in terms of the fix, which, by the way, there's, there's no reason for there should be no reason for the fix.
The stuff should not be accessing the Internet.
And we went to every, because, you know, you want to come that they already have a solution for.
It's it's I mean, in one sense, it's typical government.
We shouldn't be surprised.
But in another, this, this is, you know, the foundational architecture of our country.
And there's a lot of very serious people, including the president United States.
That is.
Framing things in terms of stability or lack of stability.
That's really bad.
You know, we, we all have kids and the more we went around and around, because you're always trying to fashion relief.
That will not present a bar to the court accepting it.
And we tried every single kind of relief that fell short of the relief.
We ultimately went with, which, you know, is going to be.
Paper ballots, hand counting, and really what it comes down to is this movement to make everything efficient has promoted fraud because it's really hard to organize fraud schemes when it requires the participation of thousands.
But it's not when it's all done by machines and it involves a participation of perhaps hundreds.
That's an important point across the board, because everything that they're doing with these electronic voting systems, fundamentally what it is, is a centralizing of the management of our elections.
And when you centralize the management elections, you need fewer and fewer people in order to execute the fraud.
And that's why I'm concerned about organizations like the Center for Internet Security, because they, this one organization, has tapped into the election data stream for all 50 states.
That's not the way it's supposed to work here in America.
We have this electoral college system for presidential races, which are only national race.
That's there for a reason.
It's intended to be a firewall of sorts to protect us from the centralization of theft of our elections.
So the fact that you guys are on top of this and working with us on this, I really appreciate.
Where can people, I want to point out, you know, Mike provided some seed funding to the early work that you did on CCLMB, but we don't have any funding to help get this over the finish line for the SCOTUS case right now.
But if people are interested in getting this injunction on the use of machines in the upcoming election, hail Mary, pass or not, it's worth it because, frankly, our country needs it.
How can they go off and help?
They go to formerfeds.org.
That'll put them over to a website.
If they go to the top, there's a donate button and they can donate to us.
The donations are tax deductible and you'll see all the different works we're in and we're involved with where I'd say 95% of what we do is volunteer driven.
I'd say 90 plus percent of our members are actual widows or next of kin or survivors of the hospital treatment protocols or the vaccine.
Um, I could get we have a 4 page list of accomplishments.
I, there's not enough time, but we've been involved in January 6. we filed an abacus brief in January 6 that we think result helped result in the overturning of the 18 U.S.C.
1512 and U.S.V.
Fisher.
Um, we, we were instrumental in pushing back.
Brad, let's put a finer point on this.
Right now, we're looking up at the headlines and we're seeing all the good lawyers are getting sanctioned.
All the ones willing to take on these fights are getting turned into an extinct species right now.
That's what they're deliberately trying to do.
And on a previous edition of the Lindell Report, I was talking about the organizations that were planning this sort of retribution against lawyers such as yourself.
So guys, when we see them standing, We have to support them and make sure that they have the ability to keep the lights on at their home while they're fighting these battles for us because they've got sorely needed expertise.
And they need the money to fight back against all these sanctioning battles as well.
But I'll tell you, for this particular effort, They need money to get this new lawsuit put in place before SCOTUS.
If you guys are able to support that, please do so.
Go to formerfeds.org, click on that donate button.
When you get to their homepage, you're going to see they're supporting a lot of good causes across the board.
That's because they're the good guys.
They're the people that we don't see often enough because they're working behind the scenes.
They're not the ones out in front of the TV cameras all the time.
It was actually, you know, pulling Brad onto the show here.
He was nervous about it.
I'm nervous about getting on this show to talk about all this stuff here, not because he's afraid to talk about any of this, but because he's one of those that's a doer as opposed to somebody talking about what what's being done.
And so I just appreciate working with him and the rest of the lawyers out of Former Feds Group.
If you want to see more brave lawyers, you got to support them.
Please go out to FormerFeds.org and help them out.
Brad, you got any final comments for the listeners here on the Lindell Report before we have to sign off?
We're apolitical, as you know, but if there is a Trump administration, I'm saying this to anybody who may be upset with us getting involved in an election fraud matter, because you're right, it's very scary, and it's how I put food on the table.
You know, I will stand against any effort to retaliate against journalists or attorneys representing their clients.
So, if there's a blowback in the next administration against attorneys who are representing, say, executives from the prior Biden administration or the Obama administration, I will be defending them and saying this should not be done.
The country is stronger when we have wide protections around journalists, That's what it's all about, returning back to the rule of law and to a country that has principles and lives by those principles.
So thank you very much for joining us, Brad, and thank you for all your efforts in support of election integrity and all the other causes that you're helping to defend.
We appreciate it.
Guys, that's it for tonight's show, the Lindell Report.
Once again, I'm Pat Colbeck, filling in for Mike.
Thank you for tuning in tonight, and I encourage you to go out to electioncrimebureau.com and get access to the information that the folks at the Center for Internet Security don't want you to see.
