🚨🚨Clinton Foundation --> Solar winds connection 🧵Thread 👇👇👇 Clinton money runs very deep. They’ve been involved with elections since 2014.... How was the foundation allowed to fund "projects" dealing with elections even while Killary was running as president?
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~1~The Clinton foundation is the source of many well funded activities that allows them to control everything. Barrick Gold Corp is relevant to #Solarwinds & the Delian Project to Dominion. I'll cover Barrick once I get to Newmont through UBS. We will focus on the Delian Project.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~2~“In 2014, Dominion Voting committed to providing emerging and post-conflict democracies with access to voting technology through its philanthropic support to the DELIAN Project, as many emerging democracies suffer from post-electoral violence due to the delay in the...
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
...publishing of election results. Over the next three years, Dominion Voting will support election technology pilots with donated Automated Voting Machines (AVM), providing an improved electoral process, and therefore safer elections.” https://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative/commitments/delian-project-democracy-through-technology
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~4~Staple Street Capital was then acquired by UBS Securities this year right before the election for $400M. There are 2 UBS’s but they are birds of a feather. Check the SEC filings here: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1827586/000182758620000001/xslFormDX01/primary_doc.xml

~5~We heard the complete opposite from Dominion CEO while he lied under oath in front of #Michigan senate oversight committee. *SKIP TO THE 10 MIN 20 SEC MARK* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJsbGSJG5Fo&feature=youtu.be
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~6~UBS is a FOREIGN company! https://www.ubs.com/cn/en/ubs-securities.html
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~7~A Joe Biden presidency would benefit them. Most of all because China has been hurt because of Trump’s strong stance. Remember they are looking for the best return on investment. https://www.ubs.com/us/en.html
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~8~China has the advantage w/Biden as president. They know who their friends are in power inside US politics. They helped build Hunter’s business in China in return for their influence in US policy. The Biden family is controlled by the CCP. https://rumble.com/vbopsh-chinese-professor-banned-video.html
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~9~Wonder why the stock market is increasing as they keep pushing "bAsElEssLy" that he is the president-erect. Remember how many Wall Street backers he had? https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/28/wall-street-spends-74-million-to-support-joe-biden.html
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~10~Joe Biden as well as Clinton and Obama all received donations to Super PACs. Sorors this year put more than a BILLION dollars. Remember he is one of the ones in control in the background.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~11~You don’t think Soros went all in this election you’re sadly mistaken… https://youtu.be/J07o36rjFqI
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~12~Mark Zuckerberg controlled the election inside & out shoving 300M+ into NGOs such as Chan Zuckerburg Initiative and CTLC. They paid poll workers, trained them and even provided “secure“ drop boxes. They knew the target areas by studying Trump 2016 win & also their FB metadata
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~13~Now that we see where most of the control is, let’s continue down this rabbit hole to see how we end up at #solarwinds…
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~14~After the election, UBS securities increased their stock position in Newmont Co to $317M. Ironically the company they decide to merge with in July 2019 was with Barrick. Remember earlier in the thread I covered the connection of Barrick with the Clinton Foundation.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~15~I recently stumbled upon a publication by Facing Finance labeled ‘Dirty Profits2. UBS, Newmont, and Barrick have all been involved in violating human rights in one shape or form. No wonder they work well with the Clinton’s global cabalist plan...
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
...They also cover Monsanto (bill gates), chevron, and even Lockheed Martin. UBS capitalized on the market crash of 2008. All 7 publications here- https://www.facing-finance.org/en/publications/dirty-profits/
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~16~"UBS still manages Lockheed Martin shares, and is furthermore invested in BAE systems, a recognized nuclear weapons manufacturer.” Lockheed Martin was affected due to the #Solarwinds cyber attack https://esecurityplanet.com/threats/fireeye-solarwinds-breaches-implications-protections/
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~17~On 8-2-19 State street global bought securities of Barrick gold. State Street Global Advisors was also retained as a sub-advisor the Blackstone Group. This leads me to Mr. Glenn Hutchins, the founder of Silver Lake Partners which has ownership of #Solarwinds
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~18~Pay close attn. to the companies he's been involved with; Brookings institutes, CARE, Obama foundation, Center for American progress, and his own foundation Hutchins Family Foundations. Some of these can be found right in Biden's transition team. https://buildbackbetter.gov/the-transition/agency-review-teams/
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~19~1st -Brookings institute has received funding from #Huawei. Biden’s transition team has a few volunteers from the brooking institute. Hady Amr for one has been involved with Clinton, Obama, and world economic forum. Brookings seems very vested in wanting a new administration
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~20~2nd-Center for American progress was founded by John Podesta... check out their biggest donors $1M+ The Hutchins Family Foundation (Glenn) 100K-500K #Amazon , Bloomberg Philanthropies, #facebook, #google, bill gates, microsoft... https://www.americanprogress.org/c3-our-supporters/
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~21~The CPP has 5% ownership of #Solarwinds through the acquisition of a portion of the existing stake owned by Silver Lake. CPP has ties to the #CCP through its investments into 2 chinese firms Hikvision & Dahua that are known for violating human rights using technology
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~22~Now we will focus on the previous CEO and his successor. Just by the companies they are/ were involved in shows why they can’t be trusted. Most companies have either bought out the other or merged together to end up involved with our countries cyber security.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~23~The previous Solar Winds CEO Kevin Thompson has served on the boards of Blackline, Barracuda, and Oracle. In 2013 Silver Lakes invests 200M+ into Blackline. Barracuda and Oracle have been involved in shady biz. Ironically Oracle took over #TikTok in Sept. 2020
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~24~According to the #Solarwinds website the new CEO of Solar winds, Sudhakar Ramakrishna has worked with Pulse Secure, Citrix, Polycom, 3Com & U.S. Robotics. 3com & US Robotics merged and the parent company UNICOM global has contracts with US army. https://investors.solarwinds.com/news/news-details/2020/SolarWinds-Appoints-Sudhakar-Ramakrishna-as-New-President-and-Chief-Executive-Officer/default.aspx
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~25~3com ended up getting bought by hp. Before the deal closed 3com and #Huawei did business together. Another note is that Sudhakar worked with Motorola solutions as well. These companies violate human rights and bribing gov’t officials https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2014-73
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~26~Earlier this year the DOJ charged Huawei and Subsidiaries in Racketeering Conspiracy and Conspiracy to Steal Trade Secrets. READ!!! 👇👇👇👇 https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/chinese-telecommunications-conglomerate-huawei-and-subsidiaries-charged-racketeering
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~27~Polycom another company the new CEO of Solar Winds was apart of. Polycom China won a 10.67M from a bribery scheme before being bought by Platronics in 2018for $2B. $36M was paid to settle by Platronics.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~28~In 2001 Citrix acquired Sequoia software Corp. As we know smartmatic was tied to Sequoia. The new CEO of #Solarwinds worked for both Citrix and Pulse secure. Sept 2020 #FBI and #CISA were aware of them being the target of a hack by China and Iran. https://www.theregister.com/2020/09/16/iran_targets_citrix_pulse_secure_f5_vpns/
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~29~Sequoia Capital is a venture capital firm that invests into companies like Google, oracle, IG, and whatsapp (FB). They also have Sequoia Voting. They are basically the same company. In 2006 Sequoia, Diebold and ES&S were sued for similar reasons as we've seen this election.
@truth_serum_007 - truth_serum007
~30~ Here's Princeton professor Andrew Appel who won the lawsuit. #politico as well as other media networks covered how to hack a voting system. In under 7 minutes they show how it could be done... https://politico.com/magazine/story/2016/08/2016-elections-russia-hack-how-to-hack-an-election-in-seven-minutes-214144 Video: https://youtu.be/KmihqVmKGT4

~32~Interesting... Sequoia established a Chinese affiliate to their US firm. I only see 1 individual on Biden's transition team, "Michael Ortiz" for the National Security Council. While looking at the executives from Sequoia I see Michael Mortiz. Coincidence? I doubt it!😂😂
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
Many years ago, a SOC analyst concluded that because anti-virus caught the malware, the threat was mitigated. This mentality was instilled in them of course. It's all just happy little viruses floating around the internet, right? Wrong. The malware was MIMIKATZ.
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
First of all calling a binary MIMIKATZ is context. That name is a label given to a set of code that when arranged and compiled into a binary provides a set of capabilities. You either know the significance of "MIMIKATZ" or you will need to look it up. It is taken for granted that…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
The analyst clearly didn't understand at a high level what MIMIKATZ is used for and in what phase of an intrusion. It was just another computer virus to them. Thankfully, someone with a more mature understanding of intrusions advised them that MIMIKATZ doesn't generally just pop…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
That anti virus fired is great. That anti virus provided an accurate label for the binary is even better. However, it was on the analyst to seek additional knowledge about the significance of MIMIKATZ. Really, this is modern foundational stuff if you work in the intrusion space.
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
Giving things names is a way to catalogue information. You are essentially attributing a binary to specific software, and that name has meaning because of the additional knowledge that accompanies it. "MIMIKATZ" can be called whatever, as long as you can quickly index a body of…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
I think most people agree that labeling, or "attributing" a set of code to a specific software (malware) is useful information. MIMIKATZ instantly tells you a bunch of things about what is likely going on than simply a generic malware disposition. Now apply that understanding to…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
In other words, if you can see that assigning a name to a piece of code has utility in defense, then you are 95% the way towards understanding why assigning a name to a collection of tools, activity, infrastructure, and at times people and organizations is beneficial.
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
A slight branch off of this is also related to MIMIKATZ, but it takes a different turn. A researcher I was working with was digging into some binaries. They were definitively MIMIKATZ. They were code signed with a specific certificate. More binaries are found, more detections…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
There's a bunch of points in this thread: 1) Software is written and deployed by humans with intent. When that intent is malicious, it's called malware. 2) Names are assigned to things to provide context, meaning, and significance. When binaries lack known author assigned…
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
When I say attribution matters, I mean the whole thing. Your personal use cases will change how much you value various granularity and confidence. That said, be cautious about using your personal use cases as the standard for what does and doesn't matter big picture.
@ImposeCost - Andrew Thompson
I forgot to add, it is my view that MIMIKATZ is malware. That view is my own and it isn't universal. 😂
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Halderman report. “There is no realistic mechanism to fully secure vote casting and tabulation computer systems from cyber threats.” "Many of the attacks I successfully implemented could be effectuated by malicious actors with very limited time and access to the machines, as little as mere minutes. This report documents my findings and conclusions." https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.gand.240678/gov.uscourts.gand.240678.1681.0.pdf
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
"Attackers can alter the QR codes on printed ballots to modify voters’ selections."
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
"The software update that Georgia installed in October 2020 left Georgia’s BMDs in a state where anyone can install malware with only brief physical access to the machines. I show that this problem can potentially be exploited in the polling place even by non-technical voters."
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
"Without needing any secret information, I created a counterfeit technician card that can unlock any ICX in Georgia."
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Everyone who has paid attention to the election fraud issue knows that these machines are wide-open to manipulation through obvious vulnerabilities and that they cannot produce reliable results. Dominion's own discovery documentation in the Fox/Dominion lawsuit said it as well.
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Lulz. Halderman worries that the people trying to secure our elections in Georgia will now know how to exploit the machines simply by having access to similar machines. That would mean anyone with access to similar machines could exploit them. It also means it's GOOD that people are proving it, because the machines cannot and do not produce reliable election results.
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
This alone is absolutely damning, and we've been making this argument for 2.5 years. "Despite the addition of a paper trail, ICX malware can still change individual votes and most election outcomes without detection. Election results are determined from ballot QR codes, which malware can modify, yet voters cannot check that the QR codes match their intent, nor does the state compare them to the human-readable ballot text." That should be horrifying, but we're told the presence of "risk-limiting audits" (basically, fake audits) would detect exploitation.
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Your elections are not secure. They haven't been in a very long time, if ever. (p6-7) "Although outcome-changing fraud conducted in this manner could be detected by a risk-limiting audit, Georgia requires a risk-limiting audit of only one contest every two years, so the vast majority of elections and contests have no such assurance. And even the most robust risk-limiting audit can only assess an election outcome; it cannot evaluate whether individual votes counted as intended."
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Every sentence of this report should provoke only one reaction: The machines must be completely eliminated, immediately. Everyone in office knows this is how our elections are run. Every single one. "The ICX’s vulnerabilities also make it possible for an attacker to compromise the auditability of the ballots, by altering both the QR codes and the human readable text. Such cheating could not be detected by an RLA or a hand count, since all records of the voter’s intent would be wrong."
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
"This means that in a close contest, ICX malware could manipulate enough ballots to change the election outcome with low probability of detection. In contrast, risk-limiting audits of hand-marked paper ballots, when used with appropriate procedural precautions, provide high confidence that individual votes are counted as intended and election outcomes are correct even if the election technology is fully compromised.
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
"Using vulnerable ICX BMDs for all in-person voters, as Georgia does, greatly magnifies the security risks compared to jurisdictions that use hand-marked paper ballots"
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Every word of this is absolutely damning. "Likewise, previous security testing efforts as part of federal and state certification processes appear not to have uncovered the critical problems I found. This suggests that either the ICX’s vulnerabilities run deep or that earlier testing was superficial." How could all of that Dominion testing and state-mandated testing by state-certified techs not uncover the problems? It's like they want the machines to be vulnerable! Oh, wait... 🤔
@imyourmoderator - Chris Paul
Can't we PLEASE just stop pretending? "My technical findings leave Georgia voters with greatly diminished grounds to be confident that the votes they cast on the ICX BMD are secured, that their votes will be counted correctly, or that any future elections conducted using…

@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
To all the people who are reading the Newer July 1 2021 Halderman report discussing the plethora of Dominion vulnerabilities. This is a must read. It’s the supplemental. I would argue it’s more important. It’s after he had access to Coffee Co machine. A 🧵 https://www.scribd.com/book/647698564
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Vulnerabilities now confirmed by CIsA: mind you they were forced by the court to look at these; EAC previously approved. Great work guys. The system is more vulnerable than the old system. What are some of these vulnerabilities ?… I’ll go through a few. Easy to bypass password.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
All machines were cloned from one machine. That one clone was outdated from 2019 and had known vulnerabilities. Why would you clone a system with known vulnerabilities? And so it goes. Says Billy Pilgrim. I say to cope with my lack of surprise.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Cloned in 2019 with a version of windows from 2015. Yup. That needs numerous critical updates. Hundreds of patches. Hackers scan systems for uplatched systems. DHS and CISA claimed to do this. How did they not catch this?
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
What do you know. One of the vulnerabilities involve a usb stick. The GASOS office literally said. Sure use these old usb stick in an email. They used usb sticks for storage. For updates. Some new. Some old. GASOS saying it’s cool. Oh yeah. Malware and antivirus out of date too.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Oh. Remeber those hash and logic and accuracy tests. They were likely fraudulent too. Next… windows can be encrypted. They chose not too. No passwords necessary to copy or extract data.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Everything could be manipulated from QR codes to ballot projects to reading and scanning ballots. Oh. And if any changes were made. There was only one generic log and pass that everyone had so it wouldn’t be traceable.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Even better. Remember. These are not supposed to be connected to the internet … oh wait.. they were accessed remotely. And guess what. You can install malware remotely if you didn’t want to stop by old English street in Atlanta.
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Remote access to English Street server by Dominion employees while other dominion employees were sitting at the adjudication desk. https://t.co/LFKT4JlB2i
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Really Fulton County and GASOS!? Someone hacked the Fulton County Elections network and took control of election equipment remotely and deleted files from ENET, GASOS did a crap investigation under an NDA with Fortalice while discussing avoiding discovery. Did you report to FBI? https://t.co/tzUgb0VZLS
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Oh, to analyze, they need the password of a user. Fulton is a little hesitant to give. Oh wait, Cause they are all the same. Every County's election equipment, same. ACLU Enet accesible laptops, shared. Oh and when told to change pass cause of time frame, GA says dont https://t.co/PB1A0PMCyD
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Oh and this is a potential Fulton Election machine hack being looked at by Angelos Keromytis. Is this investigated and reported to the FBI or CISA? nope. https://t.co/2Yb2RLrcrl
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
Oh Hey, Ga under Cyberattack. It would be funny if it wasn't true. As I said, I am going to be more liberal w docs now. And there are more. There ARE agencies in the federal government that are aware of abnormal network traffic and were watching. the extent and details not sure. https://t.co/6kb9pSX0ot

For the more technologically gifted. Fulton was having huge issues with bandwidth. VPNs. And processor usage. Should people be just winging it writing batch codes to fix super user errors. Apparently on the fly programming is fine. (Could be normal. Out of my scope) https://t.co/HZC9YRim1U
@TheAndersPaul - Eric CIAramella’s Dirty Whistle
For everyone not in the know, since this is getting traction. The ACLU, through a GA AG Consent order, bypassed GA legislature to change election law. GASOS/Fulton approved of the ACLU being able to CANCEL your absentee ballot ap, cancel your ballot, and Full Enet access. https://t.co/bYD6OdJMtj

@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
🧵***THREAD***🧵 Back in May of this year, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation arrested three Atlanta-area residents on wire fraud and money laundering charges. >https://fox5atlanta.com/news/3-arrested-in-connection-to-violence-at-cop-city This was officially the first chip away at a block of a much larger network that appears engaged in illicit activity, and within its orbit highlights a massive nationwide effort to not only influence elections, but also to bury any attempts in court to expose it in an aptly named process known as lawfare. >source: 2021 Democracy Fund Form 990 Before this news, in February, the @FreeBeacon reported that Stacey Abrams' former charity, New Georgia Project, had error-ridden tax filings that drew into question over $500,000 for 2021 alone. >https://freebeacon.com/democrats/stacey-abrams-charity-has-a-500000-problem-in-its-latest-tax-filing/ The filings were entered just following New Georgia Project firing its CEO, Nsé Ufot, who Abrams hand-picked. Ufot goes back to her childhood when she paged for Abrams in the Georgia State House of Representatives, as I've covered perviously (here: https://twitter.com/GusQuixote/status/1696022098030854375). The Georgia State Election Board referred 35 cases of election-law violations in the weeks before the 2020 general election. Among these were New Georgia Project and Coalition for the People's Agenda. The Coalition secured $10K in 2020 and $25K in 2021 from the Democracy Fund, and New Georgia Project raked in 100,000 in 2020 and $175,000 in 2021 themselves. As made evident by these investigations, voter registrations can be illegally obtained and/or submitted, which opens all kinds of avenues to manipulating state voter rolls which also happened to be associated with Nsé Ufot through her activities on the board at Democrat voter database juggernaut Catalist (here: https://twitter.com/GusQuixote/status/1674471210959118340) In a public enterprise like elections, voter registrations and mail-in ballots are the "currency," which makes signatures the metaphorical "gold backing" of the currency. Let's dive in...👇👇👇
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
2/ Using this graphic as a guide, it's easy to see the orbit of big money feeding these local and state-run programs in an effort to sway influence over elections and even the free exchange of information... A group of environmental protestors have been fervently opposed to a training facility for Atlanta police and first responders, sparking outrage and protests beginning as far back as the facility was formally announced in 2020. Known as "Cop City," the movement gained national attention after an environmental protestor was shot and killed earlier this year, known by the nickname "Tortugita." >https://web.archive.org/web/20230123210341/https://theintercept.com/2023/01/23/cop-city-atlanta-protests/ One of the spearheads of the Atlanta movement was Black Voters Matter, a national organization with its own fund to help mobilize and sign up Black Americans to vote. They are a part of the Action Network, linked to other activist programs throughout the U.S. The landing page for their part of the initiative blatantly offers to sign up and entire business to be a literal "SIGNATURE HUB." The bottom of the page features "For more information" by clicking the link which refers to http://stopcop.city. >https://actionnetwork.org/forms/stop-cop-city-volunteer-your-business-to-be-a-signature-hub-now By clicking "Join the Movement," the page redirects (here: https://stopcop.city/organize-with-us/) to a page with pointers on what actions to take, targeting local officials, national corporations, and grassroots activists.
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
3/ Stop Cop City Solidarity (here: https://www.stopcopcitysolidarity.org) is another page dedicated to mobilizing activists against the project. It features a "target map" on its landing page, various video game-like "quests" to get active in opposition to the facility, and a "donate" button that links directly to the nationwide fundraiser ActBlue. Stop Cop City Solidarity is linked directly to Atlanta Solidarity Fund, which is admittedly a project of Network for Strong Communities, a 501 (c3) nonprofit in Atlanta, GA (EIN: 85-2889531). >https://atlsolidarity.org/updates/donation-info/
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
4/ Atlanta Solidarity Fund/Network for Strong Communities is run by none other than Adele MacLean, who was rolled up on wire fraud and money laundering charges earlier this year, as I mentioned before.
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
5/ In 2021, Black Voters Matter shamelessly bragged of the fruits of their apparently corrupted work on their website.
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
6/6 🧵***THREAD***🧵 1/ Black Voters Matter wasn't the only group linked to questionable activities in its associations to Act Blue, who self-reports to have given to all Fair Fight, New Georgia Project, and the mothership of Tides in 2020 and 2021 alone. Black Male Initiative, led by Nsé Ufot's relative Edima (or Dema) Ufot (more: https://t.co/97a5uXAHUz), was called out directly by the @FreeBeacon for their own error-laden tax filings. A quick search of officers for "Nse Ufot" on http://opencorporates.com reveals the common link between the entire Ufot family - 55 _____side Dr. SE, Atlanta, GA. This has been the address of Enobong (William/Eno), Mfon (Mfonobong?), Edima (Dema), and Itoro, at the least. Itoro Ufot was listed as an officer with Freda Cheng from Austin, TX suburb Pflugerville in Transportation Logistics Specialists, Inc. in 2008. The thing here is that Mfon Ufot has used the address as far back as 2000 for Nigerian Youth Alliance, where she was an officer at least through 2010, when she founded it alongside her (presumed) daughter, Nséabasi, or Nsé. The 2010 time marker is used here as the Georgia Secretary of State did not have business listing available online between 2006 and 2010, and for the next piece of this thread... In 2000, Mfon Ufot also co-founded a group with Dayo Keshi, the wife of the Secretary-General of the Nigerian Consulate in Atlanta, Joe Keshi, called the Nigerian Women Association of Georgia. More on that here:
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
2/ The names Itoro and Ufot both appeared in connection to the Nigerian Youth Alliance, but not in the same name Itoro Ufot, but as Itoro Mbaba and Edima-Ekong Ufot. Both Itoro and Edima-Ekong were celebrated in 2006 by a Nigerian Youth Alliance Community Graduation and Awards Ceremony, sponsored by the Consulate of Nigeria, the Alliance's Advisory Board, Mfon Ufot's Nigerian Women Association of Georgia, and Itoro Mbaba's father's Africa's Children's Youth Fund. Africa's Children's Youth Fund was organized and is run by Victor Mbaba, who in 2012 signed with Itoro to convert their COMPAS International, Inc. into an LLC, but it was administratively dissolved (lapsed) in 2015. Itoro Ufot was listed as the sole officer of Ufot International, established in 2020 before it, too was dissolved - or lapsed. The peculiar part is the address used on to register Ufot International is the same address that SS Income Tax Service, LLC changed their registration to reflect in 2019. This period of time, 2020-2021 is the very time that Edima Ufot, New Georgia Project, and ActBlue-linked activists are all either under investigation or charged with money laundering or fraud-related crimes...
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
3/ Karli Swift, member of the DeKalb County Elections Board was named as a governor of New South Super PAC six months later in Washington, DC. As recently as March of 2022, Swift lobbied vehemently against the GBI's involvement in investigating election claims and "conspiracy theories"... ...like the supposed laundering of signatures to be used on registrations and mail-in ballots. >https://georgiarecorder.com/2022/03/29/local-officials-tell-georgia-senators-election-bill-would-be-wasteful-discourage-voters/ At http://albert.udoukpong.com, there is a personal webpage for Albert Udoukpong, where it shows his daughter, Itauma, also later referred to in the website as Itauma Ufot. The webpage makes apparent that Itauma is Albert Udoukpong's daughter with Ket, Ita Ufot who is listed in Atlanta metro business listings with Albert. >albert.udoukpong.com/ita_and_ket.ht… > Through deductive reasoning, this indicates that Atlanta-based Itauma Udoukpong likely married Udom (now share an address: https://t.co/9rxqCA6vub) who attended Georgia State University, as did Enobong (Eno) Ufot very shortly after (here: https://t.co/DpemYYnxR5), Eno who also shares an address with Mfon and daughter Nséabasi. Itauma Ufot is an accountant in the Austin, Texas suburb of Pflugerville, the same area from which Freda Cheng and the mysterious Itoro Ufot appeared on Transportation Logistic Specialists together...

4/ Briefly going back to the udoukpong.com/family, we see Itauma - the Spelman College graduate - and her name with both Albert and Udoukpong, all separated by commas, but also with another name, Emmanuel. Itauma Ufot was the former Assistant Secretary (and accountant of some sort) of the Association of Nigerian Women in Austin, TX and in 2008, when Itoro Ufot's name popped up in filings that included Freda Cheng from Georgetown, TX (here: https://t.co/Rz2Hfs9JxV). The name Dr. Emmanuel Ukpong came back as a Nigerian medical doctor with 45 years of experience (here: https://web.archive.org/web/20220305111757/https://nationalnewstrack.com/renowned-doctor-leads-etim-ekpo-politically), and as the Chairman of the Elders Forum of the People's Democratic Party in Etim Ekpo, Nigeria. Albert/Emmanuel/Udoukpong's friend or family member labeled simply, "Mrs. E. Ekanem," was also on their family website (here: web.archive.org/web/2002101804…). Her nametag displays the label "NSA CALABAR 2001," the NSA of which isn't the usual suspect, but the Nigerian Society of Anesthesiologists, who had their annual conference in Calabar, Nigeria in 2001 (here: web.archive.org/web/2019120508…). I cannot verify the matching identities of any of these, but does at last place both Itauma Ufot's orbit and Mfon Ufot's orbits squarely within the NGO-Nigerian private-government cooperative sphere.

5/5🧵***THREAD***🧵 1/ A safeguard any mafia hideout, attack dogs are a staple among the underworld crime circles. In this case, not the canine type, but the breed of attorneys from law firms like Perkins Coie, specifically Marc Elias. Along with now-Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (more: https://t.co/sv5ZHPj48Z), Elias helped to construct a Marxist-inspired election system, helped train judges through numerous nonprofits, foundations, and conferences, while his firm Perkins Coie represented groups like Microsoft and Black Lives Matter, and at the same time benefitted from a purported "FBI workstation" inside the firm's office. >https://judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/judiciary.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/hjc_staff_fbi_report.pdf Atlanta has been a honeyhole for Perkins Coie and Marc Elias, though Elias parted ways with the firm in 2021, but the firm kept his namesake Elias Law Group in what has been a strangely murky split since. Since 2021, Nsé Ufot has left New Georgia Project, Elias has left Perkins Coie, and three people connected to wrong filings or outright criminal charges for financial crime fall within just this immediate orbit of funding that does include Perkins Coie and Marc Elias to a very considerable degree. By Marc Elias' and Stacey Abrams' alliance through the nonprofit Fair Fight Action, they stand to gain from the combined independent thinktanks of not one, two, or three serious legal powerhouses, but FOUR: Perkins Coie, Elias Law Group, Lawrence & Bundy, and Marc Elias with Democracy Docket, himself. This played into a legal strategy designed to overwhelm the opponent in time constraints, necessary manpower, and legal fees, known colloquially as "lawfare." Pierre Omidyar and Democracy Fund financed the Brookings Institute to the tune of $810K in 2020 and $850K in 2021. The Institute received $200,000 specifically for its Lawfare Institute program each year. >https://democracyfund.org/grant/lawfare-institute/ >https://www.lawfaremedia.org/ In addition to these contributions to Brookings, Democracy Fund also filtered $310,000 through Tides Foundation in 2020, and $235,000 in 2021, labeled for "POPVOX LegisDash" in publicly available Form 990s. (There will be a folder of all of these 990 filings at the end of this thread) Democracy Fund contributed $210,000 to Arabella Advisors-managed Hopewell Fund in 2020 along with $1.5M earmarked for Marc Elias' Democracy Docket, followed by another $1M to Hopewell Fund in 2021. Clearly, Democracy Fund had a clear objective to provide legal cover for any challenges to its soon-to-be-apparent activities.
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
2/ As if Marc Elias alone wasn't enough, before exiting Perkins Coie and while receiving money for Democracy Docket from Democracy Fund, Perkins Coie raked in $9.6 million in independent contracting expenses from Hopewell in 2020 alone. Upon Elias' departure from Perkins Coie as a partner in 2021, Hopewell Fund reported a stunning $8.3 million to Perkins Coie AND an additional $2.37 million to Elias Law Group in 2021. There was an additional reporting of $105,989 to Perkins Coie in the itemized "grants and other assistance" section of the Hopewell Fund 2021 Form 990. Along with funding all of this on the legal front, Democracy Fund also injected money into controlling the news narratives by funding newsrooms and news-related nonprofits. In 2020 (blue), Democracy Fund allocated over $2.1M for a "Vibrant and Diverse Public Square Program," and in 2021 (green), just under $2.1 million. So to wrap this together, Democracy Fund and Hopewell Fund were essentially funding the legal arm of this particular political network. At the same time, the same two were also dumping loads of cash into the Tides Network. In 2020, Democracy Fund and Hopewell combined for $1.49 million to the Tides Network, and in 2021, combined for $362,865, according to 990s. Hopewell's other contributions would filter back through the same network with $3.8 million to the Sixteen Thirty Fund in 2020, and $3.1 million in 2021... ...Sixteen Thirty Fund also dumped about half each time back into Tides themselves [$2,245,700 (2020); $1,815,000 (2021)] That means that Perkins Coie and Mark Elias were paid nearly $22 million over two years (2020-2021) to protect (among other things) investments through Tides that totaled about $5,913,565 within a fund that controlled a BILLION dollars in assets in 2020 alone.
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
mAm3/ Another major recipient of Tides Foundation money is again Marc Elias and his ventures through Fair Fight Action with Stacey Abrams, who founded New Georgia Project, who we started this thread with. In 2020, Fair Fight and New Georgia Project together garnered a reported $1,544,500 between themselves, and raised $221,000 from Tides in 2021. The Abrams-Elias tandem received from Sixteen Thirty Fund $2,494,000 in 2020, and $225,000 from Sixteen Thirty in 2021. Remember Hopewell sent $3.8M and Sixteen Thirty refunded Tides $2.25M all in 2020. - Tides also funded ACLU entities $346,007 in 2020 and $29,000 in 2021, the ACLU who was behind a lawsuit against Brad Raffensperger from Black Voters Matter. >https://www.acluga.org/en/cases/black-voters-matter-v-raffensperger Black Voters Matter was mentioned earlier in this thread in their connections to Stop Cop City and its "signature drives." > Now, "The Machine" has finally decided to push to settle an old score with @TrueTheVote in Atlanta court, alleging that somehow, their activities in monitoring public drop boxes, speaking freely, and their pursuit to clean voter rolls is somehow racist in their emotionally charged originally filing from 2020. Among the claims in the December 2020 complaint is that True The Vote questioning the eligibility of 364,000 voters somehow intimidated voters and suppressed voting engagement in the leadup to the runoffs. Catherine Engelbrecht has now sworn in an affidavit of a conversation with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger who allegedly confirmed the miskept voter rolls and mentioned the stress on their office in keeping up with already ongoing Fair Fight lawsuits. >See this here: https://assets.open.ink/c8202bb0-9a70-4634-a536-a4fde9f8ae79.pdf One of these lawsuits was filed on the very same day as an amended Fair Fight complaint, and the parallel, unrelated filing even cited the Fair Fight complaint! That means that from within the funding network, and targeted against the very same entities - Brad Raffensperger and the Secretary of State - there is an endless pot of funding and a revolving door of attorneys on call to clog up the system and cripple any real attention being paid to election mal-administration. These were not GOP-led lawsuits. These were all from hard-left, communist-captured activist groups who are all controlled by the very same financial structures that bankroll its protection...
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
rIr4/4🧵***THREAD***🧵 1/ In 2018, Fair Fight Action sued GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger for using signature verification and using voting machines; Raffensperger, who in turn moved to dismiss the case based on a lack of standing, generally. Fair Fight's defense of their lawsuit in this case was simply to call the voting laws "unconstitutional" and explain that the rules were too strict to verify every voter and excluded voters - but nothing about CITIZENS. Further, they go on to allege that Raffensperger performing his official duties by applying the duly elected government's interpretation of the law was somehow punitive to entire groups of people, thus giving their nonprofit networks standing to through their resources behind it - a useful fundraising and publicity stunt. The Secretary of State is only responsible for carrying out the orders of the Governor according to State legislation - not the interpretation of activist lawyers. This case should have been waged as a challenge to the law, not the authority of the person administrating elections - I digress. Another example of hindsight in 2023, Fair Fight argued against: "...use of technology that is vulnerable to hacking and manipulation, overseeing an election system dependent on unreliable voting machines, promoting the moving and closing of precincts and polling places, maintaining inaccurate voter registration rolls, not providing adequate resources to polling places, and inadequately overseeing and training election officials on provisional and absentee ballots." Ironically, a year and a half later and just before the 2020 general election, a deposition was made in another, 2017 left-lobbed lawsuit, Curling v. Raffensperger, where the original complaint alleged that, "Georgia’s DRE-Based Voting System could not be used safely and accurately by electors voting in the Runoff because Georgia’s DRE-Based Voting System is demonstrably vulnerable to undetectable malfunctions and malicious manipulation that cannot be corrected on a timely or reasonable basis." The deposition of Dominic Olomo was entered on September 4, 2020, where he all but admits to many of the gaping vulnerabilities of Fulton County' election processes. He was a Dominion Voting Systems employee before the deposition and was released and is now employed by Fulton County directly. Also ironically, he is also from Nigeria. I covered this at length in a separate thread here: This letter to Brian Kemp was included as "Exhibit H" in that lawsuit. The next post in this thread is the continuation of the full letter. (These hard docs will be provided at the conclusion of this thread)
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
3/ In the Black Voters Matter lawsuit against Brad Raffensperger, which was filed the exact same day as an amended complaint from Fair Fight... ...the word signature curiously doesn't appear a single time in the entire filing - thus apparently making SIGNATURE VERIFICATION of either mail-in/absentee ballots or voter registrations a complete nonpoint to the group. The very same day that Fair Fight sued True The Vote (December 23, 2020), their same law team, led by Marc Elias and Perkins Coie, filed suit against several Georgia county officials through Majority Forward. This was another chapter of the story of tying up election officials with lawsuits to distract from their discovering issues in administration. Lawfare in action. But it gets even better...
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
4/ Not only did the December 3, 2020 ACLU-sponsored lawsuit that Marc Elias contributed to go so far as TO CITE HIS OTHER CASE (which was also amended the same day), but each of the cases intentionally burdened the election officials with too much work to sort through the issues with the actual elections themselves. In the period between the December 3 pair of lawsuits and the December 23 pair of lawsuits, Catherine Engelbrecht had a meeting with GA SoS on December 16th, 2020. This meeting is where she alleges that - with stated witnesses - Raffensperger seemed to validate @TrueTheVote's general estimates of voter roll discrepancies. From @onwardsocial affidavit (here: https://assets.open.ink/c8202bb0-9a70-4634-a536-a4fde9f8ae79.pdf): 5. I have at least two distinct recollections from this meeting. First, I recall that Ryan Germany described the process of challenging ineligible voter registrations as one that should be “easily managed”. In that regard, he suggested the following process: a. Each county board would review submitted challenges and vote whether to accept it or to reject them. If the board accepted the challenges, the board would forward the challenge file to the state. The state would send the file to its database management vendor. The vendor would flag challenged records so the record status would be clearly visible to staff. The vendor would then produce and send a list of challenged records back to the county in a format that could be used for easy reference. I understood from his explanation this would be straightforward and not burdensome. b. When a voter whose record happened to have been challenged voted in the January runoff election, he or she would be asked to show a current government issued ID matching the address shown on his or her voter registration record. If he or she did not have such a current ID at that time, he or she could vote provisionally and would be allotted a specified number of business days by which to come back to the county offices with such a current matching ID, and then the provisional vote would be added to the general vote count. If he or she did not come back to the county offices with the required ID within the prescribed period, then his or her provisional vote would not be added to the general vote count. (Georgia already requires voters to bring ID to the voting location, so this seemed to be a low bar). c. Similarly, with mail-in ballots, the voter would be notified that their record had been flagged as challenged based on residency and the voter would be asked to provide a current government issued ID with an address matching the address on their voter registration record. d. The process would not remove records from the official voter roll; nor would it turn anyone away on Election Day. e. I was left with the impression that Georgia’s counties could manage the elector challenge process with limited difficulty. ---- 6. My second distinct recollection relates to my discussion with Secretary Raffensperger. a. I told him the number of potential residency issues we’d identified, statewide, was over 364,000, down from over 500,000 permanent changes of address listed in the Postal Service’s National Change of Address (NCOA) records. b. I explained how we had endeavored to remove from the list records corresponding with zip codes for military bases and college campuses, recognizing military personnel and students may have errantly filed a permanent change-of address form for general purposes when they moved away from home but that they still intended to return to their home county to vote. c. We were highly concerned about the likely negative fall-out from public disclosure that there were so many inaccuracies in the official voting records. This concern was heightened because we had just emerged from a hotly-contested November 2020 General Election and control of the U.S. Senate hinged on the upcoming January 2021 run-off election. d. Secretary Raffensperger took out his pen and grabbed a piece of paper, wrote for a few seconds, then said (and here I’m paraphrasing a bit from memory), "Yeah, it should be about that number. Lots of people move every year and they’ll still be on the rolls.” He went on to discuss how the Secretary’s office had been tied up by the Fair Fight lawsuit, lamented how difficult it is to remove ineligible records, and then said something to the effect of, "Anyone can do these Elector Challenges. The G.O.P. should have been doing them all along." " So then with this in mind, and in consideration of how much money covered in this thread, let's take a look at one more integral part of this weaponized chain of money and power... Allegra J. Lawrence
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
5/ Allegra Lawrence-Hardy is an Atlanta-based attorney, a lifelong friend of Stacey Abrams, and was the chair of her 2018 gubernatorial campaign. The hard-left Daily Beast reported in 2022: "In 2019 and 2020, Fair Fight Action paid a total of $25 million in legal fees—mostly on a single case—with the largest amount going to Lawrence & Bundy. The self-described boutique law firm, which received $9.4 million from Abrams’ non-profit, is run by Allegra Lawrence-Hardy and another partner. Lawrence-Hardy is a close friend of Abrams who chaired her 2018 gubernatorial campaign as well as her current race to topple incumbent Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. [2018 is when Fair Fight effectively launched in its current form] Lawrence served as lead counsel in the case Fair Fight Action v. Raffensperger, which ended last month when a judge ruled against the voting group’s claims." >https://www.thedailybeast.com/stacey-abrams-fair-fight-action-non-profit-paid-millions-to-law-firm-run-by-her-campaign-chair According to 2021 Fair Fight 990's, Lawrence Bundy LLC was paid out $4.44 million for the year alongside $4.29 million to Jenner Block, LLP. -------- Here we have among this line of influence yet another of Abrams' cohorts that raised eyebrows for the amount of cash it raked in - comparable to that of Elias and Perkins Coie ventures together. Also keen to note is that in the 2018 Fair Fight case against Raffensperger, Raphael Warnock's Ebenezer Baptist Church, too, has been accused of financial impropriety in the past. - November 4, 2022, @FreeBeacon reported: "Warnock’s church is also facing scrutiny in the final weeks before Election Day. The Georgia Secretary of State’s Securities and Charities Division launched an investigation into a charity controlled by the church in mid-October to determine why it is operating in the state without registering with state authorities. Ebenezer Baptist Church, which pays Warnock a $7,417-per-month housing allowance, owns 99 percent of a low-income apartment building through the charity that moved to evict residents during the pandemic for past-due rent as low as $28.55." >Find the article here: https://freebeacon.com/elections/days-before-election-stacey-abramss-poster-child-voter-registration-group-is-in-turmoil/
@RealNateWalker - Nate Walker
6/7 New Georgia Project claimed that they mistakenly filed Senator Warnock as the CEO of New Georgia Project instead of Chairman of the Board... ...but it was apparently a mistake not caught since New Georgia Project began their lawfare racket - and since Warnock's associated groups have drawn ire, themselves in the same period. The registration of New Georgia Project: I would typically be one to not publish more of the same business' subsequent filings in a row, except that Warnock himself signed off on the registration in 2020... ...which was then changed to Nsé, the other person accused of strange filings, the next day (top). --------------------- * - Next, to look at the universities that received funding from this same political donor network...and most of them I've conveniently covered ad naseum already, so thank God for thorough preparation!

3/ Wouldn't it be damning if this same funding network was funneling money into Michigan State University - a school riddled with collaborators of researchers connected to the People's Liberation Army? Well, New Venture Fund, who received a combined $16,395,538 between the Sixteen Thirty Fund, North Fund, Tides, and Hopewell in 2020, donated $50,000 Michigan State University in 2021. Of that, the 2020 North Fund donated $500,000 to New Venture Fund - another fund run by Arabella Advisors - while paying Perkins Coie $609,836 for legal services. MSU also maintains direct conduits to the People's Republic of China through a major donor to the school - Hong Kong billionaire, Jonathan KS Choi. >https://sunwah-gyln.com/sunwah-group/ Chairman of Sunwah Group and a member of the Mainland's CPPCC, Jonathan Choi is a major centerpiece of the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative and Hong Kong's interactions and contributions toward and within it. >https://en.sunwahgroup.cn/content/520.html China is one of four nation-states declared a threat to national cybersecurity by the ODNI in 2022. >https://www.odni.gov/files/ODNI/documents/assessments/ATA-2022-Unclassified-Report.pdf - Even Microsoft has been forced to publicly acknowledge the threat posed by China, yet "competitive cooperation" continues with the repressive nation. >https://blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/2023/09/07/digital-threats-cyberattacks-east-asia-china-north-korea/ But what other universities might be a part of this network? Would it be coincidental for this same network to overlap other schools I've covered in the past, either connected to Michigan State, China, or leadership within the (mostly) Democrat Party's subversive network of nonprofits and NGO's?

4/4🧵***THREAD***🧵 1/ In 2020, Democracy Fund paid the University of California $287,056 in "consulting fees" alone. In addition to that, schools including UW-Madison, Duke, Georgetown ($795K), NYU ($425K), UC-Riverside and Santa Barbara, CUNY, Ohio State ($295K), Virginia, Penn, MIT ($600K), Arizona, Maryland, UNC, Oregon, USC ($875K), Wayne State, West Virginia ($100K), and Yale all received their share of a total of $5,400,568 for the year. Democracy Fund also approved $845K in future spending for several of these same universities for a total of $5,520,568 allocated to universities and colleges. The Tides Foundation was a recipient of $310,000 from Democracy Fund, but also put forth their own contributions to universities. Some of those, too, landed within the university networks I researched before. Schools including Arizona State ($175K), Cornell, Georgetown ($250K), Johns Hopkins, UC-Berkeley, Columbia ($1.62M), Central Georgia Technical College ($175,000), Caldwell Community College (NC) ($100,000), Northeastern Illinois ($22K), Illinois ($125K), Delaware ($100K), UNC, UC-SF ($170K), Oregon, South Carolina, UT-Austin, Washington, UW-Waukesha, and Yale raked in their portions of $6,087,244 given by Tides Foundation in 2020. Most notably of all of these were Stacey Abrams' alma mater, Spelman College, receiving $80,000 from Tides Foundation. Abrams has contributed to the university in years past as well. The Tides Foundation itself contributed $225,000 to Black Male Initiative between 2020 and 2021. Another of Abram's former schools, Emory University, received $49,939 from Hopewell Fund, who is the conduit through which Marc Elias received $1.5M for Democracy Docket in 2020. Also from Hopewell Fund, universities and colleges including Georgetown ($200K), Northeast Ohio Medical, Ohio State, MIT ($90K), Columbia ($100K), New Mexico ($260K), Yale ($175K) and Pitt all received their shares of $1,082,214 in 2020. This may not seem important except for that many of these schools also support Chinese academics who have a high probability of sharing sensitive information with the PLA by way of the PRC. 🧵HERE ➡️

2/ In 2020, Democracy Fund ($2.68M), North Fund ($500K), Hopewell Fund ($410K), Sixteen Thirty Fund ($8.23M), and Tides Foundation ($7.25M) all dumped a combined $19,074,083 into New Venture Fund, another monster political activist fund that keeps the bearings greased. Sixteen thirty Fund also reported New Venture as its "payroll reporting agent" and reimburses New Venture for salaries and benefits, etc. Those expenditures totaled a reported $1,009,410 for a difference of about $7.2 million in 2020 between Sixteen Thirty's contributions and New Ventures reported Part VII under Salaries and Benefits. On top of all this New Venture Fund, a nearly-billion dollar fund itself, donated a lion's share to the very same colleges and universities in this network. Included were: Arizona State ($282K), Carnegie Mellon ($89.5K), Duke ($513K), George Washington ($225K), Georgetown ($200K), Georgia State ($150K), Loyola, NYU ($218K), UC-Santa Cruz ($270K), Michigan ($263K), CUNY, Stanford ($8.35M), Princeton ($726K), UT-Austin ($180K), Boston ($270K), Columbia ($376K), Penn ($1.2M), Tufts ($125K)... There are so many that I had to break the monotony... UC-Berkeley ($245K), UC-Davis ($32K), UC-SF ($3M), New Mexico ($1.5M), Pitt ($1.2M), USC ($90K), University of the South ($173K), Utah ($80K), Washington ($90K), UW-Madison ($200K), Harvard ($1.35M) This was a total university/college investment from New Venture Fund totaling roughly $23,968,834 in 2020 alone. Knowing what's been covered about the funding into legal firms, with the intent to swat away prying eyes into these matters...this very same fund who receives from Hopewell (which is protected by Marc Elias) also sent back to Hopewell $1.8 million in 2020. Could that have been toward what Perkins Coie was paid in their $9.5 million paycheck for 2020? Does that mean Marc Elias and/or Perkins Coie are protecting secrets buried within the universities as well? I have not addressed things like the University of Michigan and their involvement with Sequoia Capital through their Wolverine Venture Fund - which doubles as a course in the Ross School of Business. >https://michiganross.umich.edu/courses/wolverine-venture-fund-4600 As recently as 2019, U-M committed $6.2M to two separate Sequoia venture funds. >https://web.archive.org/web/20210616172205/https://regents.umich.edu/files/meetings/03-20/2020-03-IX-1.pdf Sequoia Capital interacts directly with entities of the Chinese Communist Party. In 2021, New Venture Fund granted $1,172,381 to the University of Michigan, who has historically harbored many academics who have interesting backgrounds in Mainland China. I hope to have more on that subject in particular soon...

I spoke at @MSFTBlueHat last week. ➡️https://github.com/JohnLaTwC/Shared/blob/master/Presentations/2023-10-BluehatUS.pptx I will follow up with a link to the recording when it is posted. Some highlights from my talk below👇👇👇
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
I talked about how incidents can teach powerful lessons and contain important truths for defenders.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
I talked about while it is often romanced that offense has a richer toolset compared to the singular metaphor for defense ("the shield"). Defense has many creative ideas within it as well.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
Some foundational concepts for defenders include: 1. Every contact leaves a trace...in a log 2. Defense involves the process of mapping attacker activity to its traces in logs 3. Attacks can take place on many logical layers 4. How essential pivoting is to navigating your data
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
I talked about the ability to find breaches by time-traveling through logs. Some attacker techniques may have fewer methods of expression (e.g. credential dumping, privileged group enumeration) and these serve as important detection "bottlenecks" in the kill chain.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
I also talked about the importance of building trust as defenders and how it can be the fastest way to accomplish things.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
Often our toughest problems at work are not technical, but rather inter-team issues. I gave some tips on dealing with these.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert
Finally, I talked about the importance of staying sane, focusing on your health, and having good work/life boundaries.
@JohnLaTwC - John Lambert

Shocking History of Dominion Voting - How Obama rigged the creation of Dominion Voting Co. I need help in identifying who wrote this stunning article below, wish to give them credit. Since 2009, Dominion Voting Systems operated from 215 Spadina Ave., Toronto, ON, M5T 2C7,Canada – an office space of the radical Tides Foundation. This building houses (or housed until a few months ago) a Toronto office of Tides Canada and a Tides’ incubation space for leftist groups. Dominion Voting Systems Corp. is the Canadian company behind the ballot switching software. Dominion was founded in 2003, with a mission to provide electronic voting systems friendly for progressives. Because of such partisanship, it languished with almost no customers for the next 5-6 years, until the Obama administration came to power. In 2010, the Obama administration confiscated electronic voting systems assets (software, intellectual property, manufacturing tools, customer base, etc.) from two established American companies, and gave them to Dominion. At the same time, Dominion got some employees and assets from a foreign EVS company, tied to Hugo Chavez. Its software has been used by some 40% of the voters in this elections, mostly by Democrat-controlled states and election commissions. Apparently, no protections were put in place against ballot switching, deletion, or creation. According to Dominion’s own website, it software was used in “battleground” states and the largest Democrat states, including MI, GA, AZ, NV, NM, CO, AK, UT, NJ, CA, NY. Dominion Early History Dominion Voting System Corp., was founded in Canada in 2002-2003 with an openly progressive mission – to develop electronic voting software which would not just process ballots, but also “mobilize voters” – a popular slogan of the Left. It is not clear what products or services the company has developed. It found almost no buyers, until Obama was elected in 2008. In 2009, New York ordered a few dozens of systems from it. In 2010, Obama’s DOJ (Holder – Mueller) took the EVS unit, purchased from Diebold, away from the market leader ES&S, and gave it to Dominion. This gift included the installed base of about 30% of the US electronic voting systems (EVS) market. Within two weeks, Dominion also acquired Sequoia, which was formally spun from Smartmatic, but ties between these two companies remained. Smartmatic is a UK based EVS vendor, whose software was used by Chavez to “win” the Venezuelan referendum in 2004. Smartmatic’s unit Sequoia faced troubles in the US. Those troubles quickly ended when its assets were purchased by Dominion. Thus, the new Democratic party created a pocket pet corporation, gave it the lion share of the US electronic voting systems market. Dominion is ideologically aligned with the Democratic Party, owes it everything it has, dependent on it for most of its business, and needs it in power to avoid prosecution for corruption. Sounds like a conflict of interest. Electronic Voting Using electronic voting machines has always been controversial. The pros for electronic voting – saving working time of the ballot counters – are minuscule. The cons however are infinite. Because software is inherently complex, non-transparent, and volatile, there is always a risk of significant errors. There are also suspicions and doubts about election results. The complexity of software and hardware on which voting machines run has been continually increasing, aggravating these concerns. At the beginning of 2009, there were four major US EVS suppliers: ES&S, Premier (a unit of Nixdorf-Diebold), Sequoia (linked to Smartmatic), and Hart Intercivic. The market size was a few hundred million dollars a year and growing. EVS vendors competed among themselves and against traditional pen and paper voting. There were no barriers to entry for other competitors, other than government’s regulations. Electronic voting, which sounded like a good idea in the 1980s is so no more. Electronic voting machines and their vendors were under criticism for many years. In 2007-2008, this criticism materialized in the SEC, DOJ, and states lawsuits against the voting machines vendors. Diebold was catching flack for having a prominent Republican party supporter among their top executives. It spun its EVS unit as a separate company Premier, and was looking for a buyer. The existing vendors were burdened with liabilities, including DOJ investigations. This opened up an opportunity for the Obama administration. Technical Vulnerabilities of EVS Systems The voting software developers can easily insert code, changing numbers in favor of or against one candidate. No hacking is necessary. The malicious code can be designed to pass tests and to be triggered only at the time of a real election, automatically or manually. Both case are possible even the the machine is disconnected from the internet and has no ordinary I/O devices. The malicious code can be activated manually in real time by inserting a ballot or another paper with a pre-defined QR or image code. An audit of the source code is necessary, but not sufficient. Dominion software runs on Windows, and the malicious code can be hidden in any part of the operating system. Malicious code can be hidden in the firmware, too. If a state wants to take risks and to rely on testing and the source code audit, they should be conducted with the participation of technically competent representatives of both parties. If the system passes testing and auditing, the machine image must be securely stored. All supplied machines must have exactly the same hardware and the software as the audited system. As far as I know, thorough tests and source code audits are conducted very rarely, if at all. Further, the vendors are not required to use only the audited image, and are allowed to update the software almost at will. That means that election commissions are forced to blindly trust the vendors. Blind trust is always wrong and invites abuse. But even “trust but verify” is applicable only to trustworthy vendors. Dominion Voting is the opposite of trustworthy. The only real solution to the vulnerability of EVS is not to use them at all. Manual ballot counting has no software vulnerabilities, and is much cheaper. Virginia appears to be the only state that decided to use only manual ballots. How Dominion went from nothing to everything in two weeks In September 2009, ES&S acquired Premier [8], without any objections from the DOJ. But in March 2010, the Obama’s DOJ (Eric Holder – Robert Mueller) forced ES&S to “sell” Premier’s assets to Dominion, but to keep its liabilities. In addition, ES&S was forced to license to Dominion some of its software, in perpetuity and free of charge. The pretext for the DOJ action was antitrust. The “Sale” This is how the assets transfer was structured, per DOJ [1] (March 8, 2010). “WASHINGTON — The Department of Justice announced today that it will require Election Systems & Software (ES&S) to divest voting equipment systems assets it purchased in September 2009 from Premier Election Solutions Inc. in order to restore competition. The assets to be divested include the means to produce all versions of Premier’s hardware, software and firmware used to record, tabulate, transmit or report votes, including the Assure 1.2 system, and a license to better serve disabled voters. The department said that today’s settlement will restore competition in voting equipment systems in the United States… “ “In order to restore competition” sounds funny, because the same document also required ES&S to not compete against the buyer (with exceptions). “… the acquisition substantially reduced competition as it combined the two largest providers of systems used to tally votes in federal, state and local elections in the United States. ES&S’s acquisition of Premier made ES&S the provider of more than 70 percent of the voting equipment systems in the United States. The department said that because the cash value of the deal between ES&S and Premier was $5 million, far below the mandatory reporting threshold for mergers under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, the department’s investigation of the transaction did not begin until the companies had combined their assets and dismantled many of Premier’s operating divisions.” Sounds like a poor pretext. The DOJ has been investigating these companies even before the merger, and was aware of it. Further, the DOJ does not allege that the merger has not been reported. Even so, why not simply demand unrolling the merger? The DOJ provides a poor excuse to demand divestiture rather than a normal unrolling. “Under the terms of the settlement, ES&S must divest all of the intellectual property associated with all versions –past, present and in development –of the Premier voting equipment systems to another company. ES&S also must divest all Premier tooling and fixed assets, as well as inventory of parts and components. In order to allow the divestiture buyer to better serve disabled voters, ES&S must also grant a fully paid-up, irrevocable, perpetual license to use the AutoMARK, ES&S’s ballot marking device for which Premier had a limited license prior to the acquisition. The buyer of the divestiture assets will have the right to modify and improve both Premier products and the AutoMARK.” Thus, the Obama’s DOJ stripped ES&S not only acquired Premier assets, but also coerced it to license rights to its pre-merger product. “ES&S must sell the divestiture assets to a buyer approved by the department.” This is not selling. This is confiscation multiplied by corruption. “The settlement prohibits ES&S from bidding on new voting equipment system contracts using the Premier equipment. [transferred to Dominion]” Wait, didn’t they say that the purpose was to increase the competition? “The department also required that ES&S grant the divestiture buyer an opportunity to compete to provide services to Premier customers currently under contract with ES&S, giving customers the option to switch to the divestiture buyer or to remain with ES&S … ES&S also must provide access to knowledgeable Premier employees and agree to offer a supply agreement to allow the divestiture buyer time to establish its own manufacturing of voting equipment systems.” The approved divestiture buyer, Dominion Voting, is not mentioned in this press release. But this quote shows that the DOJ has already determined the “approved buyer,” and knew that it had no manufacturing base. After the “Sale” Dominion announced the acquisition of the Diebold products on May 19, 2010 [2] and the acquisition of Sequoia Voting assets on June 4, 2010 [3]. Dominion also hired much of its personnel, probably retaining ties to extremely sketchy Smartmatic. Sequoia/Smartmatic systems had been used in the Venezuela 2004 referendum, which Hugo Chavez “won”. Smartmatic is a British company with Hugo Chavez ties, headed by “Lord” Malloch-Brown (former UN Deputy Secretary-General, UNDP, UNHCR, VP of Soros’ Quantum Fund, and Vice Chair of Soros’ Open Society Foundation) [7], and linked to electoral scandals all over the world [5]. In August 2009 (corrected), the rough breakdown of the EVS market in the US was (per Brad Friedman): 40% ES&S 30% Diebold/Premier 20% Sequoia/Smartmatic 10% Hart Intercivic 0% Dominion Voting Less than a year later, after the “antitrust” actions of Obama’s DOJ, it became: 50% Dominion 40% ES&S (restricted in competing against Dominion) 10% Hart Intercivic Thus, the DOJ’s actions did the exact opposite of its words. An elections system vendor should be non-partisan, in a demonstrable way. Dominion is not just partisan, but hyper-partisan in favor of the Democrat party, or even its pocket vendor. Dominion has many more ties to the Democrat party and its prominent supporters in the US and abroad, which are not covered in this article. Software Development in Serbia Dominion develops much of its software in Belgrade, Serbia. Russia is a close friend to Serbia, if not its only one. If anybody sincerely thought that Putin wanted to hack American elections, their first location of interest would be the offices of Dominion Voting in Belgrade, rather than the Trump Tower in New York. By the way, Serbian and Russian languages use the Cyrillic alphabet. Most letters have the same Unicode encoding in Serbian and Russian (the Basic Multilingual Plane, range 0410-04FF). If any election officials found Cyrillic text on a Dominion voting machine in 2016, it was probably left by its developers in Serbia.

1/ Meet Sushil Chouhan, An Indian national who owns a scam call center in New Delhi, India. He has been scamming thousands of innocent people since November 2023. https://t.co/bk7Y5JzZps
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
2/ I first encountered Sushil's operation when I came across this "Microsoft scam popup." It blocked my keyboard and mouse input and played an audible warning instructing me to call a toll-free number. (This is an example of the scam popup.) Don't call the number! https://t.co/7o1tY8sfJN
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
3/ When I called this toll-free number, I got connected to what sounded like a busy office. The person answering the phone introduced himself as a "Microsoft Certified technician." He told me that my computer was infected with a trojan virus and that I needed to connect it to a "secure server" (remote access software).
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
4/ After the scammer gained access to my virtual machine, he started the scam by showing me non-existent issues (Event Viewer) and stopped services. Once he finished the initial scam pitch, he opened a notepad file and wrote out the so-called "Support plans." https://t.co/Bf46yFOjVN
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
5/ The scammer thought everything was going his way, but while he was trying to scam me, I quietly worked on reversing the connection back to his computer. (This is the scammers phone system) https://t.co/YEnhoC0Jqx
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
6/ This scam call center has Wi-Fi both inside and outside the building. By using the names of the wireless networks and their signal strengths relative to the scammers' computers, we can precisely determine the location of the scam call center. (28.5182833,77.2806568) https://t.co/FqzkJcmIBS
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
7/ Once I reverse the connection to one computer in a scam call center, it becomes very easy for me to pivot my access onto more machines. In this case I got access to multiple desktop computers and one laptop that gave me my first ever look into Sushil's scam operation. https://t.co/3U3jCcuVZ5
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
8/ On this computer they were logged into Stripe and PayPal. They mainly used Stripe to take the payments from the victims. So I exported every single transaction that has ever been initiated on that stripe account. https://t.co/z1sCRrcZhp
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
9/ They run multiple ad campaigns, paying for google advertisements targeting specific keywords like "best internet provider" "internet deals" etc. So they not only impersonate Microsoft but they also claim to be from big companies like DirectTV, Xfinity, Spectrum and many more. https://t.co/XfI208T5wV
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
10/ After I gained access to all of the employees I managed to take control of Sushil's computer. On his computer I found a ton of juicy files like ID cards, Salary slips, Company registrations and even bank statements . https://t.co/MIzJyB6ArR
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
11/ Sushil typically uses the laptop to manage the finances, Website domains, the phone system and even his personal bank account. https://t.co/utwaM5uuBJ
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
12/ This is live footage of Sushil recruiting a new scammer to the team. https://t.co/Yz0O1zz4BA
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
13/ These are photos that were downloaded directly from Sushil's cloud server. The photos from the server match perfectly with my webcam footage. https://t.co/vRpDuLN1nh
@NanoBaiter - NanoBaiter
15/ At some point in my investigation the scammers realized I was spying on them and they fully panicked. https://t.co/SdMJTL4FJg

This is a ***THREAD*** to end Stacey Abrams' political career This thread is a combination of three separate pieces of work: Article: "Is the New Georgia Project a Political Group... or Part of Something More?" Thread: "In late October 2022, @politico reported that Stacey Abrams' nonprofit , Fair Fight Action, shoveled out over $9,000,000 to her longtime friend and former classmate from Spelman College, Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, just in the course of two years" https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1696022098030854375 Thread: "Back in May of this year (2023), the Georgia Bureau of Investigation arrested three Atlanta-area residents on wire fraud and money laundering charges" https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1714736093067964452.html ----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- 1/ Nonprofit activist extraordinaire Stacy Abrams and her voter registration project have a lot of powerful friends helping them take control of their "democracy." (image: https://humanevents.com/2023/02/28/stacey-abrams-is-in-nigeria-to-oversee-their-elections) Twice-failed former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, was in Nigeria, “with the National Democratic Institute ‘on a mission to observe elections and encourage voter participation," as part of a, “diplomatic mission,” as ZeroHedge put it. (https://zerohedge.com/geopolitical/why-election-denier-stacey-abrams-overseeing-elections-nigeria) Just beneath the surface is the New Georgia Project’s recently installed, and more recently replaced CEO of the New Georgia Project, Nsé Ufot. Ufot is rightfully proud of her connections to Nigeria as a native who emigrated with her family to the U.S. at a very young age. She has also been linked in the past to an Atlanta-based Nigerian youth education non-profit. (image: https://time.com/collection/time100-next-2021/5937719/nse-ufot/) The Washington Free Beacon recently reported, "…her tenure with the New Georgia Project came to an abrupt end in October 2022, when she was dismissed under murky circumstances." (https://freebeacon.com/democrats/stacey-abrams-charity-has-a-500000-problem-in-its-latest-tax-filing/) The Beacon went on in their blistering report to expose that $533,000 is missing from the NGP’s tax filings, and it was not the only blemish. They also reported that the filings contain information that accountants say is "just not possible." There were tens of millions of dollars misplaced or simply unaccounted for — in one case, a discrepancy of $17 million in salary payments, and that the New Georgia Project paid ZERO dollars in payroll taxes in fiscal year 2020. (image: https://ajc.com/politics/election-board-investigates-warnock-and-new-georgia-project/V4YRQNRIRVENTI4GVH2OY5SNQY/) There have also been serious allegations from the State of Georgia into NGP’s activities surrounding elections in Georgia. The New Georgia Project has been riddled with chronic clerical incompetency since its 2014 conception. A comprehensive profile of the organization can be found at http://influencewatch.org. For nearly a decade, supporters have summarily dismissed all of these claims as “unfounded,” “baseless” conspiracy theories. The New Georgia Project, itself sheds light onto a primary cause for that reactionary dismissal. The New Georgia Project Action Fund, a fundraising PAC associated with the non-profit, is essentially funded by the same circle of political activist organizations. (image: https://opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/new-georgia-project-action-fund/C90020876/donors/2020) United We Can is synonymous with the ultra-scandalous Service Employees International Union (SEIU), who also contributed $15,492 to New Georgia Project, separately from the PAC in 2020. Beto O’Rourke’s Texas Organizing Project is also a major backer of Stacy’s political endeavors, also synonymous with Powered By People, perhaps fruit of Abrams’ ties to the University of Texas in Austin. The top two contributors to Everyday People PAC are the Working Arizona PAC and the Asian American Advocacy Fund PAC, of which the America Votes Fund significantly funds both.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
2/ In late October 2022, @politico reported that Stacey Abrams' nonprofit, Fair Fight Action, shoveled out over $9,000,000 to her longtime friend and former classmate from Spelman College, Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, just in the course of two years. (image: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/10/24/stacey-abrams-fair-fight-action-00061348) Then, in February of this year, the Washington @FreeBeacon reported that over $500,000 was missing from Stacey Abrams' former New Georgia Project, now led by Nséabasi Ufot. - Contained within the article was a highlight of Nsé's brother Edima, who worked with the Black Male Initiative, and the group confirmed to the Beacon through IRS disclosures that it never received the $500,000 for consulting. (image: https://freebeacon.com/democrats/stacey-abrams-charity-has-a-500000-problem-in-its-latest-tax-filing/) - Naturally, in light of some of the other allegations surrounding Georgia - supposed "Mules" hauling ballots all over the country, and specifically in Georgia, and here with so much money simply vanishing around the same people, it deserved a deeper look. Aside from the New Georgia Project’s financial kerfuffles, their business filings have been chaotic to say the least. It provides a striking dichotomy for the group who also leverages massive amounts of data as on of their foundational practices, as you’ll see later. Nigerian native Nséabasi Ufot, for instance, managed to avoid being listed on official business filings for the first 3 years of New Georgia Project’s existence. In her stead was listed the Chairman of the Board, U.S. Senator from Georgia, Raphael Warnock. (image: https://www.ajc.com/politics/election-board-investigates-warnock-and-new-georgia-project/V4YRQNRIRVENTI4GVH2OY5SNQY/) The New Georgia Project also claims in the Beacon article that Ufot was fired in October of 2022, but Georgia business filings show she was not officially removed until Tuesday, February 13, and the Beacon subsequently ran their story the following Friday. So all of this begs the question: Who is this “handpicked leader” for the New Georgia Project that it seems no one, yet everyone has heard about?
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
3/ Stacey Abrams graduated Spelman College in Atlanta Georgia in 1995. (image: https://issuu.com/spelmancollege/docs/spelman_insidews06) In a 1991 Spelman Spotlight (Stacey's freshman year), Nséabasi's mother, Mfon, was the volunteer coordinator for the Council on Battered Women. (image: https://gahistoricnewspapers.galileo.usg.edu/lccn/sn81306945/1991-01-30/ed-1/seq-3/) Eventually, Nséabasi would go on to page for Abrams in the Georgia State House, at only the age of 14. (image: https://thefulcrum.us/nse-ufot-new-georgia-project) Discovering Mfon Ufot mentioned in a 1991 Spelman College publication made me look for a record of her attending Spelman at some point as well, but what I found was even more shocking... Another Ufot, Itauma, was listed as having graduated Spelman in 1979. 22 years (18+4) before 1979 puts her birth year around 1957, which will be VERY useful later, as you'll see.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
4/ Itauma Ufot today has an address in the Austin suburb of Pflugerville, Texas but still does business in the south Atlanta Metro through a company called Kaiume, Inc, and Real Engineering, Inc. This finding motivated me to look more into the Texas address which brought me to one hell of a mess. Though her name is shortened to "Ita," Itauma shares an address with another Ufot - Udom. Finding the info for Udom Ufot was a jolt, not because of the shared address, but because of finding a different zip code attached for exactly the length of one election cycle at exactly where it should be in a 2000-2002 address. As we move forward with these, these subtle discrepancies in addresses are minor, but can be consequential if used for things like voter registrations. These listings are sourced from various places, but heavily from voter registration databases.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
5/ Remember that Itauma Ufot graduated Spelman College in 1979, and from this 1976 Georgia State University Rampway yearbook, Udom Ufot was in Geology Club that year. (image: https://digitalcollections.library.gsu.edu/digital/collection/yearbooks/id/12167/rec/1) Udom Ufot, like most of the elder Ufot family, has many returns on different variations in his name. One explanation could be that just in June of 2019, Nigeria announced that the "Era of Multiple Identities" was over, according to an article at: (https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2019/06/25/era-of-multiple-identity-over-in-nigeria-says-nis/) Udom Ufot has three children with Ita, but the parents' names show up in birth records as Udom Ikpo Ufot and Ita Udo-Ukpong. A quick look back at Ita's Georgia business filings and Albert Udoukpong (Udo-Ukpong without the hyphen) sheds some light that Albert is likely her blood relative. But now, let's go back to Udom's time at Georgia State and fast-forward two years when another Ufot showed up.

WARNING: THIS IS A DOOZY TO PONDER Before we hit this next post, I have to say that there is an indistinguishable amount of crossed-up combinations of these name-syllables. Most of these people I find no trace of whatsoever in the real world except these composite "profiles" aggregated from across data providers. -------- Here is "Eno" Ufot in a 1978 Georgia State University yearbook, apparently short for Enobong "William" Ufot. And here he is again in 1980, just for good measure. --------- Now that Eno has been introduced, let's look at all of the Ufots that connect to the same address that he has kept attached to his name consistently since 1981...

7/ These are lists for all officers and agents containing the name "Ufot." Gedtaxi, LLC and BLL-MART INC. are registered to an Ufot Benson. I've established to date no correlation with as of yet outside of the loose similarity between Dema (Edima?) Ufot's Eazy Auto Rentals and Ufot Benson's Gedtaxi. Mfon Ufot has been involved with Jubilee Christian Church in years past and founded the Nigerian Youth Alliance in 2000. She has been filing their paperwork and they have maintained the same address since their founding. This is also the address used by most members of the rest of the family, as you are about to see.

8/ Back to the embattled brother of Nsé Ufot from the Washington Free Beacon article, Edima, "Dema" with Eazy Auto Rentals, LLC registered the company to the same 55 --- Dr. address in Atlanta as Mfon's Nigerian Youth Alliance, but also Nsé's on her listing with the State of Georgia for State Power Fund. Mfon filed an amended annual report in April of 2022, changing the address to a Riverdale, GA address, the same town Itauma used in other business filings. Most curious to me, however, was an old listing for Transportation Logistic Specialists, LLC, registered listing Freda Cheng as CFO, Itoro Ufot as Secretary, and James H Miller as CEO. The strange part however, were the filings themselves, signed by a James H. Veach as CEO instead of James Miller of Decatur. Freda Cheng is a legendary Austin-area restauranteur with a reputation for excellence. She was welcomed to Austin in 2002, but her first location was the same address used on her paperwork in 2008: 701 S Main St, Georgetown, TX - a beautiful, historic masonic lodge.

9/ In 2000, a nonprofit called Nigerian Women Association of Georgia was established, with an "Ufon Ufot" listed as the Chair of the Youth Program Committee. While I cannot say definitively that this person IS Mfon Ufot, the geographical area, the position, the place in time, all seem to point toward this being the same Mfon Ufot. There was a wide gap in the Georgia Sec. of State online database of business filings for Nigeria Women Assc. between 2002 and 2007, but in 2007, some other things of note happened. Not only was Ufon's name changed (or likely corrected) to Mfon, but Abby Ebodaghe began to appear in the filings, who was a product of another Ufot venture. The first filing was signed on January 18, 2007, and another on February 12, just three and 1/2 weeks later. Abby Ebodaghe is the daughter of one of Mfon's associates through the Coalition of Concerned Africans in Louis Ebodaghe, and Abby is a former member of the Nigerian Youth Alliance. In the grab from the 2006 archived Nigerian Youth Alliance website (here: web.archive.org/web/2006070122… ), not only does it become more apparent that there is not simply a small bucket of Nigerian names to choose from, but also the similarities between the names and associations to those in Texas are stunningly more obvious. No other Nigerians in these circles seem to have these spiderwebs of associative names in loosely associated places like Mfon Ufot's entire family. Notice that the Ufot family has influence in two of the organizations sponsoring this event. *****ALSO NOTICE that here we have Edima Ufot, and also the name "Itoro Mbaba," hearkening to the "Itoro Ufot" registered to the transportation company with Freda Cheng and James Veach, and "Itoro Mbaba" who didn't appear anywhere else online that I could locate in 2023*****

10/ Atlanta, Georgia has a formal "Sister City" agreement with Lagos, Nigeria. If you notice below, even the Nigerian Women Association of Georgia is mentioned on the State of Georgia's official Nigerian connection fact sheet. (image: https://georgia.org/sites/default/files/2022-11/georgia_nigeria_connection_2022.pdf) It highlights that the group "provides resources and networking opportunities" to area Nigerian women and youth. --------- In a 2015 anniversary press release, NWAG CEO, and former Ufot partner Abby Ebodaghe described the founding as happening in the Consul General's house with Mrs. Dayo Keshi, the then-Consul General Joe Keshi's wife, another former Ufot partner, Julie Ajayi, and Mfon Ufot. This means that since 2000, the Ufot family has been connected to the diplomatic arm of Nigeria, as Mrs. Dayo Keshi also enjoys a lifetime appointment with the group, as laid out in their articles of incorporation. Mfon was obviously active in the community for elevating Nigerian voices. She was published in a 1996 UMass-Boston publication with an entry titled, "Leadership in the African Immigrant Community: Conflict and Coalition Coalition." (https://scholarworks.umb.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1318&context=trotter_review) In the footnotes, the press release mentioned Mfon Ufot's consultant position with Save The Children.

11/ Since 2003, NWAG has been active in donating to anti-human trafficking, child slavery, and medical causes in Nigeria specifically. By 2012, NWAG had been fundraising to build a "NWAG House" (web.archive.org/web/2017060213…) ...and it continued into 2017... (web.archive.org/web/2019082804…) ...But by 2020, NWAG had shifted to simply raising money for "Human trafficked victims, orphanages, scholarships, and many more NWAG programs."

13/ A little more on Mr. Joe Keshi... Keshi seems through his few media appearances in Nigeria to align with the highly controversially, newly elected (convicted criminal) President Bola Tinubu. - And seems to come out against Trump, at least in jest perhaps, while in the same interview he praised the FBI, and has even opined on electoral processes... (https://www.arise.tv/joe-keshi-niger-junta-should-release-bazoum-to-show-sincerity-about-dialogue/) - Keshi retired just last year and moved into more of an on-camera role in Nigeria. - This was all worth mentioning because of the uproar that ensued over Bola Tinubu's visit with the DNC at the convention in Charlotte, NC in 2012 and whether or not he actually paid to attend (which presumably would have raised red flags as to campaign finance). (image: https://dailypost.ng/2012/09/09/controversy-trails-tinubus-invitation-obama-partys-convention/) - In 2015, Stacey Abrams aimed to dump $10M into recruiting 1.5 million voting-aged residents.

15/ Back in May of this year, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation arrested three Atlanta-area residents on wire fraud and money laundering charges. (https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/3-arrested-in-connection-to-violence-at-cop-city) Using this graphic as a guide, it's easy to see the orbit of big money feeding these local and state-run programs in an effort to sway influence over elections and even the free exchange of information... A group of environmental protestors have been fervently opposed to a training facility for Atlanta police and first responders, sparking outrage and protests beginning as far back as the facility was formally announced in 2020. (image: https://web.archive.org/web/20220504131700/https://stopcop.city/) Known as "Cop City," the movement gained national attention after an environmental protestor was shot and killed earlier this year, known by the nickname "Tortugita." One of the spearheads of the Atlanta movement was Black Voters Matter, a national organization with its own fund to help mobilize and sign up Black Americans to vote. They are a part of the Action Network, linked to other activist programs throughout the U.S.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
16/ The landing page for the Black Voters Matter portion of the initiative blatantly offers to sign up an entire business to be a literal "SIGNATURE HUB."

Stop Cop City Solidarity (here: http://stopcopcitysolidarity.org) is another page dedicated to mobilizing activists against the project. It features a "target map" on its landing page, various video game-like "quests" to get active in opposition to the facility, and a "donate" button that links directly to the nationwide fundraiser ActBlue.

17/ The Nigeria Tie-Ins The Nsé Ufot-Stacey Abrams power circle has been under financial scrutiny for years. Most recently, Ufot's brother Edima splashed into a Washington @FreeBeacon article for a grant made to a charity he was connected to. Earlier in this thread, he was at the Nigerian Youth Alliance graduation ceremony with another person named Itoro Mbaba in 2006. Previously, Itoro Ufot who was listed as the secretary of Transportation Logistic Specialists with Freda Cheng from Texas. On July 2, 2020, Itoro Ufot opened Ufot International, LLC through Registered Agents, Inc. Its business license was revoked for failure to pay on September 30, 2021. About a year earlier, Nigerian Youth Alliance restructured and brought on a new name to the circle as CEO: Odera Okoye.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
An Odera Okeye in Atlanta, GA took out a PPP loan for $20,833 on April 23, 2021. (https://projects.propublica.org/coronavirus/bailouts/loans/odera-okoye-9160918809) An Odera Okoye on LinkedIn is listed as a Partner at BRGLS, which seems to be a Lagos, Nigeria consulting firm. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/odera-okoye-52921334/) His previous position was at Coca-Cola Hellenic (Nigeria) BC as a Director in several capacities.

19/ I bring all of this to light only to direct your attention to the fact that the New Georgia Project and specifically the Nigerian Women Association of Georgia have direct access to a foreign consulate at a moment's notice. Being that they are so interconnected with a foreign government, what could that mean in context with what we know about Fulton County covered here already? -------------------------- Until 2019, Nigeria had an open, lax national identification system that was apparently not tied to any ID number or way to verify a person saying who they are. ----------- In a June 25, 2019 publication from thisdaylive-dot-com, Chinedu Eze and Oluchi Chibuzor wrote: "The Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Immigration Service (CGIS), Muhammad Babandede, has said that the era of multiple identity is over with the new passport that is integrated with National Identification Number (NIN) and Biometric Verification Number (BVN)." It had previously apparently been commonplace for people to change their legal names in Nigeria for any reason they so felt compelled. The article continued, "The security in the new passport will discourage people who believe they can just wake up and change their names due to reason best known to them."

@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
20/ The Puppeteer - New Georgia Project At the top of the chain for this story is Stacey Abrams' New Georgia Project, led by Nsé Ufot during this main period of 2020 and 2021. U.S. Senator from Georgia, Raphael Warnock was the Chairman of the Board of New Georgia Project, but was errantly listed as CEO, according to NGP. -------------------- The New Georgia Project has been riddled with chronic clerical errors since its 2014 conception. A comprehensive profile of the organization can be found at http://influencewatch.org. For nearly a decade, supporters have summarily dismissed all of these claims as “unfounded,” “baseless” conspiracy theories. The New Georgia Project, itself sheds light onto a primary cause for that reactionary dismissal. (image: https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/new-georgia-project-action-fund/C90020876/donors/2020) The New Georgia Project Action Fund, a fundraising PAC associated with the non-profit, is essentially funded by the same circle of political activist organizations. United We Can is synonymous with the ultra-scandalous (https://seiuexposed.com/crime-and-corruption/) Service Employees International Union (SEIU), who also contributed $15,492 to New Georgia Project, separately from the PAC in 2020. Beto O’Rourke’s Texas Organizing Project is also a major backer of Stacy’s political endeavors, also synonymous with Powered By People, perhaps fruit of Abrams’ ties to the University of Texas in Austin. The top two contributors to Everyday People PAC are the Working Arizona PAC and the Asian American Advocacy Fund PAC, of which the America Votes Fund significantly funds both. (image: https://www.opensecrets.org/political-action-committees-pacs/fair-fight-pac/C00693515/pac-to-pac/2020) All of the donors on this list above create a self-perpetuating feedback loop of funding, beginning mostly with worker unions. For example, the NEA Advocacy Fund is a separate fundraising entity, yet it is funded entirely by the National Education Association. The NEA is also a significant direct donor to Fair Fight. ------------------------ In 2021, New Georgia Project gave Black Male Initiative $67,500, but the @FreeBeacon says NGP also never paid $500,000 in consulting fees, where Edima Ufot was allegedly involved. What the Beacon missed, however is an additional $66,246 (almost another $67,500?) reported in unrealized gain losses for 2021. But there's even more...
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
21/ Nsé Ufot was paid $332,850 from NGP and NGP Action Fund in 2021... ...BUT ALSO TOOK A REPORTED $8,865 "ADVANCE TO EMPLOYEE" in 2021. For such a well-connected political group with deep pockets and successful attorney friends, like Abrams' best friend Allegra Lawrence-Hardy, who @politico reported made $9 million in two years from Abrams' Fair Fight Action, this many clerical questions raise legit alarm bells. -------------- Fair Fight Action and Marc Elias By Marc Elias' and Stacey Abrams' alliance through the nonprofit Fair Fight Action, they stand to gain from the combined independent thinktanks of not one, two, or three serious legal powerhouses, but FOUR: Perkins Coie, Elias Law Group, Lawrence & Bundy, and Marc Elias with his own nonprofit law group, Democracy Docket. This played into a legal strategy designed to overwhelm the opponent in time constraints, necessary manpower, and legal fees, known colloquially as "lawfare." Iranian citizen (YES, Iranian) Pierre Omidyar and Democracy Fund financed the Brookings Institute to the tune of $810K in 2020 and $850K in 2021. The Institute received $200,000 specifically for its Lawfare Institute program each year. In addition to these contributions to Brookings, Democracy Fund also filtered $310,000 through Tides Foundation in 2020, and $235,000 in 2021, labeled for "POPVOX LegisDash" in publicly available Form 990s. Democracy Fund contributed $210,000 to Arabella Advisors-managed Hopewell Fund in 2020 along with $1.5M earmarked for Marc Elias' Democracy Docket, followed by another $1M to Hopewell Fund in 2021.
@GusQuixote - This is the Gus Bus
22/ Another major recipient of Tides Foundation money is again Marc Elias and his ventures through Fair Fight Action with Stacey Abrams, who founded New Georgia Project, who we started this thread with. In 2020, Fair Fight and New Georgia Project together garnered a reported $1,544,500 between themselves, and raised $221,000 from Tides in 2021. The Abrams-Elias tandem received from Sixteen Thirty Fund $2,494,000 in 2020, and $225,000 from Sixteen Thirty in 2021. Hopewell sent $3.8M and Sixteen Thirty refunded Tides $2.25M all in 2020. Tides also funded ACLU entities $346,007 in 2020 and $29,000 in 2021, the ACLU who was behind a lawsuit against Brad Raffensperger from Black Voters Matter. Black Voters Matter was mentioned earlier in this thread in their connections to Stop Cop City and its "signature drives." Stop Cop City Solidarity is linked directly to Atlanta Solidarity Fund, which is admittedly a project of Network for Strong Communities, a 501 (c3) nonprofit in Atlanta, GA (EIN: 85-2889531). Atlanta Solidarity Fund/Network for Strong Communities is run by none other than Adele MacLean, who was rolled up on wire fraud and money laundering charges earlier this year, as I mentioned before. This was the human network accessing the ActBlue funding network, who gave Fair Fight Action $4,732 in 2020, and Black Voters Matter Fund $19,849. Another notable beneficiary of the ActBlue money laundering network is Fulton County DA Fani Willis. But we're STILL not done with Atlanta.

23/ Karli Swift, a member of the DeKalb County Elections Board was named as a governor of New South Super PAC six months later in Washington, DC. As recently as March of 2022, Swift lobbied vehemently against the GBI's involvement in investigating election claims and "conspiracy theories"... (image: https://georgiarecorder.com/2022/03/29/local-officials-tell-georgia-senators-election-bill-would-be-wasteful-discourage-voters/) ...like the supposed laundering of signatures to be used on registrations and mail-in ballots. Nsé Ufot is the founder of the New South Super PAC. ------------------- Some of those conspiracy theories also just coincidentally happened to make a complete circle all the way back to Nigeria and accessing the Consulate for work visas to work for Dominion Voting Systems. In the 2020 election, Dominic Olomo worked for Fulton County, being as that he had just left his official position with Dominion after a deposition in Donna Curling v. Brad Raffensperger in his official capacity. In the 2020 August runoff, Olomo admitted to practices that, if they were commonplace in election administration, would explain things like Colorado's Tina Peters and the password debacle. Olomo admitted to people taking pictures of the passwords in his deposition. Olomo's LinkedIn shows his having worked for Dominion during the August 11th runoff, which eventually spurred a lawsuit from Donna Curling against Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger in his official capacity over irregularities in the administering the election. The deposition of Olomo occurred on September 4th... (https://creativedestructionmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/olomo.dominic_090420-1.pdf) ...making apparent that Olomo left his employment with Dominion and moved directly to Fulton County Government, and with no overlap - and you will understand why. Throughout the lengthy sworn deposition we learned several things that I'm not entirely sure anyone managed to piece together so far, so here's what I came up with... Under Olomo's penalty of perjury (citations are in (page-line) format): ▶️Olomo said he has a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Federal University of Technology in Nigeria and a Master's degree. ▶️When Olomo showed up for work early on election day (6:30am), August 11, Fulton County staff was already working on the EMS, logged in. (p138-19) ▶️In the course of explaining the process that Dominion trained Olomo to perform, he highlights what seems to be a break in the chain of custody of ballot images several times, in copying files from the hard drive and onto the removable USB drives. ▶️Olomo was NOT trained on adjudication, but says he assisted with it anyway, at least to log people in. ▶️He differentiates throughout his testimony the difference in function of the SD card and the USB drive. He never mentions, however, two SD cards in the "client" machines, as @UncoverDC rightly drew attention to. ▶️There were new people there, people not hired by Dominion and also people who did claim to be with Dominion, people who Fulton County staff already knew. ▶️One woman in a striped shirt (p90-6) said she was there to "help with anything" and for adjudication. ▶️Olomo said she was not local to Atlanta and that the County supervisor knew her. ----------- ▶️Olomo repeatedly walked back and inverted his answers as the deposing attorney slowly unveiled more information he was privy to. ▶️▶️The best example was on the topic of what system logs Olomo did or did not download from the scanner machines, and then later, what all data was included with the system logs. ▶️At first (p114-12), Olomo insisted that he absolutely did not download anything from the logs that happened after August 11th. ▶️But when asked a few minutes later (p128-10) he very specifically and clearly said he downloaded it both times that he was asked (p132-2). ▶️The first request from the Fulton County supervisor came days AFTER the election. The second came days following even that. ▶️Olomo was out of the warehouse that housed the central election management server for hours at a time, having the Fulton County supervisor sending him on runs to far north and far south precincts. All of this with extra help at the facility and no mobile help. ▶️Olomo testified that upon returning to the warehouse, the County staff were already adjudicating before the election had even finished. ▶️The election hadn't finished because Olomo also says he was in a hurry to have all of the precincts closed by 7:00pm local time. ------------------------------- But nothing to see here? Nope, not yet...

24/ The deposing attorney revealed that "remote access" had been enabled through Windows' standard software, included on every Windows system - Windows Remote Management (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/winrm/portal) An incursion happened early in the morning on election day, which was the source for the line of questioning into Olomo's whereabouts that morning. Olomo said he wasn't trained on adjudication or how to perform or troubleshoot adjudication, but he was trained on how to copy files from the EMS client computers onto a flash drive, just not ballot images. Later, Olomo also says that HE trained Fulton County employees to download files themselves and if they wanted the ballot image files, it was their option whether to save them or not. On Aug 25, Harry Hursti, who was part of the apparently secret Halderman Report (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20702935-halderman-report-antrim/), returned to Fulton County English Street warehouse to check up on the situation. He said he observed Olomo still working on something, but Olomo insisted he was not. Here's a fresh link to the deposition in full: https://creativedestructionmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/olomo.dominic_090420-1.pdf ----------------------------------------------- So what does this mean in context exactly? Well, Stacey Abrams and Co. have truly taken the Democrat-flagship electioneering operation international.

The same intelligence agencies that spy on the world rely on Azure. No system built on Azure can ever be fully secure. If Microsoft Azure has this much power over government, infrastructure, and elections, do you really think it operates without deep state oversight?

AWS Built the CIA’s Cloud 👉2013: AWS won a $600M contract to build a private cloud for the CIA. 👉2020: AWS won part of the $10B JEDI (now JWCC) contract for military cloud services. (Sounds familiar)🤔 The same cloud hosting intelligence operations also hosts election systems, banks, and telecom infrastructure.
@Theonlyme333 - Theonlymethereis
Election Infrastructure Runs on AWS 👉Dominion, ES&S, Smartmatic, and other vendors have used AWS for data storage & election night reporting. 👉Voter registration databases & election management systems are hosted on AWS. Remote access capabilities = vector for external manipulation.
@Theonlyme333 - Theonlymethereis
AWS is deeply linked to In-Q-Tel (CIA’s venture arm). Sounds familiar🤔 👉AWS powers AI, surveillance, and real-time cloud access for U.S. intelligence, just like Azure. 👉Also just like Azure, AWS has privileged access points for “national security” reasons. AWS and Azure aren't securing data They're making it easier to access
@Theonlyme333 - Theonlymethereis
Azure & AWS dominate federal contracts, elections, & intelligence operations. Both control critical infrastructure and sensitive data. Both offer “GovCloud” solutions But who governs the cloud? It's pretty obvious The internet isn't *free* it's controlled

‼️ BREAKING: Ye (@kanyewest) potentially affected by a variant of an Apple iOS zero-day exploit. The parent exploit was caught in the wild yesterday and was subsequently patched by @Apple. A thread 🧵 🪡
@yungh0v - kovak special
❓What is a Zero-Day Exploit? A zero-day exploit is a cyberattack that takes advantage of a previously unknown and unpatched vulnerability in software or hardware, allowing attackers to gain unauthorized access before the vendor or developers can address the issue.
@yungh0v - kovak special
❔How it Works 1️⃣ WebKit exploit → Full device access → Telegram session hijacking[7][8] 2️⃣ Attacker-controlled messages sent via Telegram API, appearing authentic[12] 3️⃣ Extraction of Telegram chats, files, or cached media via spyware[7][10]

@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
There’s something Starmer isn’t telling us about his digital ID plans… And it all centres around a little-known system called One Login. Thread 🧵
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
From the level of outcry yesterday, it’s safe to say that many are aware of Starmer’s scheme to impose mandatory digital ID, dubbed BritCard, on every working person in the UK—citizen and foreigner alike.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
For context, BritCard was initially advanced by Labour Together, the think tank Morgan McSweeney ran before becoming Starmer’s chief of staff.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Now, Starmer claims BritCard will help tackle illegal migration, and to be fair, it might—a little. But this is coming from a man who promised to stop illegal immigration, and since then, we’ve only seen record highs.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
What seems to have been entirely forgotten, however, is that the government already has a digital ID scheme in place. And let’s just say… there have been a few issues.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
In May, journalist Andrew Orlowski was contacted by a government whistleblower who revealed some of these issues involving something called One Login.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
One Login is the digital identity service system created by the Government Digital Service (GDS) in 2021 that will help deliver BritCard.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
It was designed to give citizens streamlined access to hundreds of government services and, through the GovUK Wallet, store key digital documents such as driving licences.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
It currently processes the personal and biometric data of some three million citizens and has already chewed through over £300 million in public funds.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
(In fact, the total cost of our digital ID escapade so far totals upwards of £700 million when you include the Conservative's digital ID programme, Verify, which was abandoned in 2023... That's a lot of houses.)
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
When the whistleblower, who worked as a senior civil servant, arrived on the One Login project to set up an information-assurance team in 2022, he encountered complete chaos.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
The system was being accessed thousands of times a month by users holding unrestricted “do anything” system-administrator privileges. (And yes, many did not have the security-clearance required to work with such sensitive data.)
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
So we're talking about hundreds of government employees having access to an unprecedented amount of very private information.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Tie this in with past incidences of data misuse and institutional political prejudice and we have a troubling picture.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Worse still, GDS did not require locked-down workstations for either its remote-working staff or the hundreds of external contractors involved in developing the system. In other words, this made it ripe for cyber attack.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
But it got worse yet... The civil servant discovered that part of the One Login system was being developed in Romania—a country that researchers at Oxford University have identified as one of the world’s "cybercrime hotspots".
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Next come the conflicts. Turns out, the same contractor responsible for developing One Login is the same one responsible for managing its risks. Can a company objectively assess the risks of a system they themselves helped build?
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
In fact, according to the civil servant, no external provider has conducted a security and risk assessment at all. This would immediately disqualify it for use in other sectors.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
To put the danger into perspective: It would take only one user with certain privileges to create havoc—to install a back door into One Login that nobody would spot until it was too late.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Want to guess what happened when all of this was raised with the GDS hierarchy?
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Rather than investigate, senior figures quietly reassigned staff from the civil servant assurance team to menial duties. A formal HR complaint was then lodged against the whistleblower, and new officials were swiftly brought in to replace them.
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
As one digital-identity expert remarked to Orlowski on the scheme's potential dangers: "Imagine if [what happened to M&S] happened to Companies House or the Land Registry"
@StarkNakedBrief - The Stark Naked Brief.
Put simply: the UK’s digital ID scheme has already been marred by alarming security lapses, not just technical failures, but institutional ones, fuelled by a civil service committed to concealment over correction. Starmer's plan will likely amplifies this—on steroids.

Microsoft is handing over Bitlocker keys to law enforcement. https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2026/01/22/microsoft-gave-fbi-keys-to-unlock-bitlocker-encrypted-data/
@matthew_d_green - Matthew Green
For those who don’t have context, Bitlocker is the built-in drive encryption in Windows. This is supposed to protect the data on your machine from being accessed without authorization. In many configurations, Windows will upload a recovery key to your Microsoft cloud account.
@matthew_d_green - Matthew Green
The problem is that these recovery keys aren’t encrypted end-to-end in a way that Microsoft can’t access. So if law enforcement wants to access your encrypted drive (even without knowing your password) they can just ask Microsoft for the key. And Microsoft will hand it over.
@matthew_d_green - Matthew Green
Once upon a time you could assume (mostly) that any Federal law enforcement agency doing this would be operating within the bounds of the law. Nowadays, who knows. I sure wouldn’t want to be a journalist relying on Bitlocker. https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/21/media/washington-post-hannah-natanson-fbi-doj-devices
@matthew_d_green - Matthew Green
But more broadly, this highlights a fundamental weakness. If MS can easily produce this data to law enforcement, then anyone who compromises their cloud infrastructure (or customer service infrastructure; or can forge a plausible LE request) can potentially access that data.
@matthew_d_green - Matthew Green
It’s 2026 and these concerns have been known for years. Microsoft’s inability to secure critical customer keys is starting to make it an outlier from the rest of the industry.
@IntCyberDigest - International Cyber Digest
‼️🇪🇺 The EU's new Age Verification app was hacked with little to no effort. When you set it up, the app asks you to create a PIN. But that PIN isn't actually tied to the identity data it's supposed to protect. An attacker can delete a couple of entries from a file on the phone, restart the app, pick a new PIN, and the app happily hands over the original user's verified identity credentials as if nothing happened. It gets worse. The app's "too many attempts" lockout is just a counter in a text file. Reset it to 0 and keep guessing. The biometric check (face/fingerprint) is a simple on/off switch in the same file. Flip it to off and the app skips it entirely.
@IntCyberDigest - International Cyber Digest
Here is a demonstration video of how the 'hack' was performed. https://t.co/GA8oC9tRtn
@IntCyberDigest - International Cyber Digest
Important context: This is not a production EU app that citizens are being asked to install today. It is the official DEMO / DEV reference implementation (white-label blueprint) published at http://ageverification.dev and on GitHub. The project docs are explicit: “This white-label application is a reference implementation … that should be customised before publishing it.” Pre-built APKs and hosted services are for testing and demonstration purposes only. It ships relaxed storage (SharedPreferences for PIN/flags, visible PNGs) deliberately so developers in 27 member states can quickly test flows, debug, and reset state on emulators/devices. That said — fair criticism remains: Even for a reference/demo, the defaults are weaker than they should be (no secure-by-default keystore/Keychain example in the obvious path, no strong tamper detection in the demo build). The European Commission’s public statements (“technically ready … highest privacy standards in the world”) created the misleading impression that this was a finished, hardened product. That was sloppy messaging.
@IntCyberDigest - International Cyber Digest
@deforl I think this won't be included in the final version, it exists for convenience during development.
@IntCyberDigest - International Cyber Digest
@maanvis81 I believe Von Der Leyen said this, cannot confirm the source though "The European #AgeVerification app is technically ready. It respects the highest privacy standards in the world. It's open-source, so anyone can check the code..."
@Paul_Reviews - Paul Moore - Security Consultant
Let's shift focus and explain why the #EU #AgeVerification concept is fundamentally flawed. Assume: 1. The production app is released. 2. It's 100% secure, 100% private (fantasy land, but stick with me) 3. It cryptographically challenges every step, including hardware attestation which requires a physical device. 4. Every single other attack vector in the surrounding environment is somehow magically patched. aka - it's working exactly as intended/designed. It does not protect against a relay attack. This is a threat they considered and somewhat addressed here: https://github.com/eu-digital-identity-wallet/eudi-doc-architecture-and-reference-framework/blob/main/docs/architecture-and-reference-framework-main.md With the current design, there's nothing preventing someone running a verification-as-a-service; a remote Android device which returns a valid attestation. Remember, it's not returning "I am over 18", it returns "someone is over 18". Neither the verifier, nor the app has any way to link the session ID to a physical device. Their own docs state this clearly: Remote Cross-Device Presentation: "Note that the Wallet Instance does not see any difference between the cross-device flow and the same-device flow. In both cases, it receives an OpenID4VP-compliant presentation request over the Wallet Instance-platform API described in the previous section." This is a known & well-understood attack vector in all remote credential presentation models; it's just not mitigated in this one... primarily because they can't. CTAP 2.2 won't work with all app flows, hardware attestation doesn't mitigate relay attacks, on-demand liveness detection would be too intrusive & potentially privacy-invasive & timing calculations don't reveal anything useful... all the available options to resolve this break the core design; completely anonymous age verification. The Architecture & Reference Framework (ARF) is technically sound in some respects. They considered external threat actors and discussed solutions to mitigate them, including ZKP. However, the EC applied the wrong threat model, thus arriving at the wrong conclusion. Yes, you need to protect against malicious verifiers, phishing sites, session hijacks, data brokers et al... but that's addressing external threats, it doesn't protect the architecture from the user itself. In virtually every other scenario, the user and system's interests are aligned; protect my biometric asset at all costs. Specifically for age verification, most users do not want to present ID simply to access a website, so whilst the system may adequately protect from external threats, if the user wants to bypass the system, they can... and the architecture doesn't consider this. Every single applied mitigation assumes the user is the protected party, not the threat actor. To those people claiming "it requires physical access to the device and root, this is BS/hyperbole", you too applied the wrong threat model & completely missed the point. These disclosures demonstrate that you, the user, are the threat actor they haven't considered. You have your device. You can root your device. You can create a chrome extension, just as I did. Ironically, it's precisely those under 18 who can't pass verification who are motivated to bypass it. So where does that leave us? A system which replaces "I am over 18" with "someone is over 18", with absolutely no guarantee that it's true... which is the entire purpose of the app.

Ufot goes back to her childhood when she paged for Abrams in the Georgia State House of Representatives, as I've covered perviously (here: https://t.co/cCHNZaS3O8). The Georgia State Election Board referred 35 cases of election-law violations in the weeks before the 2020 general election. Among these were New Georgia Project and Coalition for the People's Agenda. The Coalition secured $10K in 2020 and $25K in 2021 from the Democracy Fund, and New Georgia Project raked in 100,000 in 2020 and $175,000 in 2021 themselves. As made evident by these investigations, voter registrations can be illegally obtained and/or submitted, which opens all kinds of avenues to manipulating state voter rolls which also happened to be associated with Nsé Ufot through her activities on the board at Democrat voter database juggernaut Catalist (here: https://t.co/Go5rzyxLoI) In a public enterprise like elections, voter registrations and mail-in ballots are the "currency," which makes signatures the metaphorical "gold backing" of the currency.
