Larry Johnson: Here Is What I See as The Strengths and Weaknesses of Mike Lindell’s Movie “Absolute Proof”
Gateway Pundit ^ | 02/08/2021 | Larry Johnson

Posted on 02/08/2021 2:44:33 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Disclaimer: We hear your feedback and noticed the comments below. We want to be clear, this is not an attack on Mike Lindell. We 100% support Mike’s efforts to expose the historic electoral fraud from the 2020 election. We also believe his efforts are courageous. Mike put it all on the line. This was intended as a handy guide to the substance that was delivered in “Absolute Proof.” You can decide for yourself.

Let me state up front that I admire and like Mike Lindell. He is a good, decent man with an honest heart. But those qualities do not excuse the sloppiness and lack of focus in his latest effort to present “evidence” about the electronic theft of the 2020 presidential election from Donald Trump. Mr. Lindell made a good start but failed to have a tight script, which produces a meandering video account that lands an occasional punch.

Notwithstanding the media and establishment mantra that there is no evidence of fraud and that anyone who insists to the contrary is either mentally ill or a conspiracy theorist keen on wearing a tinfoil helmet, the facts show otherwise. Unfortunately, the full scope of this evidence has not been publicly presented and methodically briefed. I want to be perfectly clear–the election was filled with fraud and outside interference. Donald Trump and the Americans who voted for him are victims of a massive crime. This includes the use of counterfeit “mail-in” ballots that were never processed through the USPS and the use of voting machines that were connected to the internet and communicating with entities outside the United States.

I was hoping that Mike Lindell’s video, Absolute Proof, would be a significant step in marshaling the evidence. But my hopes go unrealized. Mike Lindell does little in this video to move the matter forward in the compelling way required to seize the attention of America. I am not attacking Mike. His good intentions simply did not get put into action with content that would justify the title of the video.

Here is what I see as the strength and weaknesses of Absolute Proof. During the first 12 minutes of the two hour video (1:59:58 to be precise) Mike Lindell speaks extemporaneously and passionately about the fraud and promises that you, the viewer, will see”Absolute Proof.” While he is truly speaking from the heart, his presentation is disjointed and rambling. He needed to hire writers and a director to put together the blockbuster presentation that he promised. He is largely preaching to the choir.

12:40 to 23:53 COLONEL PHIL WALDRON, Working with Allied Security Operations Group in Dallas.
The good Colonel talks in generalities without presenting documentary evidence. For example, he states that Dominion is controlled by the Chinese via a Private Equity Firm that owns Dominion and that Dominion’s Testing Company for Dominion is a Chinese Company (run by CCP). Ok. Show the viewer the actual documents that buttress these claims. He also mentions foreign servers in Barcelona, Uk and Frankfurt (e.g., “We mapped out servers (SCYTL) in Frankfurt—DENIX.”) and spikes in volume of traffic between those servers and the United States. Well and good. But what did that activity consist of and what is the proof of the substance/content of the activity? That question is left hanging.

23:54 to 49:19 RUSSELL RAMSLAND—Ramsland’s favorite word is, “horrifying.” He repeats that word throughout the interview with Lindell but never puts meat on the bone. He starts off discussing activity he saw in 2018 of ES&S machines manipulating data/votes in Texas and his subsequent and fruitless struggle to get the Feds (i.e., Department of Homeland Security and Department of Justice) to look at the evidence in Texas and do something. The Feds refused to act and shutdown the Texas investigation in September 2020.
DHS Intelligence & Analysis Division.
Ramsland then talks about his company’s forensic work in Antrim County Michigan examining Dominion machines. But once again the discussion is generic and lacking the kind of documentary or visual exhibits that show Ramsland is not just offering up his opinion. He states that 82% of the ballots in Antrim County, Michigan were adjudicated and that 93.6% met the same fate in Fulton County, Georgia. Yet, there is no corroborating document for the viewer to see.

It is essential in telling this kind of story for the filmmaker to show you the actual documents or graphics that confirm what is being said by an expert/witness. For example, Ramsland states that SCYTL owns CLARITY ELECTION NIGHT REPORTING but shows no document or link to any such acquisition. A viewer not steeped in the election controversy might find Ramsland interesting, but not slam dunk persuasive.

49:20 to 1:02:01 DR. SHIVA AYYADURAI—Dr. Shiva is a true genius. Lindell’s 12 minute interview with Shiva focuses on how Dominion machines appear (emphasize APPEAR) to have been used to defeat him in a GOP primary election. He says that he lost the primary because an algorithm was used to provide weighted vote tallies to his opponent. Paper ballot converted to ballot image. Machine counts image. He says that he “proved that state deleted ballot images” and that his votes were multiplied by .666 and his opponent’s votes were multiplied by 1.3. Once again, no documentary evidence to back up Dr. Ayyadurai’s testimony.

1:02:02 to 1:04:48 PATRICK COLBECK (State Senator Michigan) Poll challenger. He testifies, “We saw evidence that voting machines connected to internet.” Colbeck’s testimony is relevant evidence. But, if he went to court as a witness, he would have to explain how he knew it was connected to the internet. Just seeing an ethernet cable plugged into a machine is not final proof. I am not questioning Senator Colbeck’s veracity. Rather, I am trying to help you understand the kind of detailed testimony that is needed to make the case for fraud.

1:04:50 TO 1:08:18 MELISSA CARONE—Melisssa, in my view, was the first person in this video to offer solid evidence. Her evidence comes in the form of sworn testimony regarding what she witnessed over a an extended time period. Hired by Dominion. Her job was to walk along rows of the tabulating machines. Every vote was for Joe Biden over a 20 hour time period. When ballots jammed, they were reinserted along with other ballots that had passed thru the tabulating machine.

Carone’s testimony also highlights the confusion in Lindell’s narrative. Were the Dominion machines flipping votes because they were connected to the internet or was Biden’s tally being run up because ballots with only Biden’s name on it were being put through machines multiple times. If you are doing the latter you do not need to do the former necessarily.

1:08:20 to 1:26:10 MATT DEPERNO—DePerno is the star of the video–deservedly so–because he is laser like in focusing on the evidence. DePerno filed a lawsuit on behalf of Bill Bailey challenging school board election. Showed in one precinct in Antrim County, Michigan that initial machine votes went for Biden but, using a hand count, the votes that were logged for Biden actually were for Trump. In Kearney Township Precinct 1, for example, the machine tabulated 744 votes for Biden and 16 for Trump. In a subsequent hand count, Biden’s vote total was 470 and Trump’s was 743.
In Antrim County, the initial machine tabulation gave 7769 votes to Biden and 4509 to Trump. In a subsequent hand count, Biden’s total was 5959 (1810 fewer votes) and Trump’s was 9759 (an increase of 5250). Initial total machine ballots totaled 12,278. Final hand count totaled 15,718. This is a difference of 3,440 votes.
Deperno subsequently received a Judicial order to capture the forensic images of the Dominion voting machines.
His team’ss forensic examination of the machines revealed a complete failure to properly follow procedures and securely transfer the votes. Moreover, DePerno showed that the Dominion manual explains how to connect the machine to the internet. On Nov 4 and 11:03pm system files and adjudication files were deleted from Dominion system.

DePerno makes it clear that the CEO of Dominion, John Poulos, lied to the Michigan Senate in sworn testimony. Poulos made the following statements:

Another problem identified by DePerno, which is an indicator of fraud, is the astronomically high error rate for ballots requiring “adjudication.” Normally, adjudication percentages are less than 5%. In the case of Dominion the calculated ballots showed a 68% error rate. That is not human error, it is machine error.

1:26:11 to 1:28:04 ERIC COOMER, Director of Product Strategy and Security for Dominion. Mike Lindell gets a big pat on the back for inserting this in the middle of DePerno’s interview. It shows the the senior Dominion executive pitching Chicago Cook County election officials and shows him explaining how his machines can connect to the internet.

1:28:05 to 1:36:18 MATT DEPERNO—DePerno is back on camera with the Dominion manual, which explains in black and white how the workstation is connected with an ethernet cable to the internet. Not his opinion. It is the factual statement of the company that makes and sells the machines.

1:36:19 to 1:49:40 MARY FANNING—This portion of the video should have been dynamite. But instead of properly and concisely presenting the evidence, Mike Lindell and Mary Fanning miss the boat. We see glimpses of a spreadsheet that, we are told, are foreign intrusions into 2995 counties before, during and after November 3, 2020. I believe it. The data we can see does show China as the big culprit. But we only see a fraction of the take and at no time are we informed how this information in Mary Fanning’s hands was collected and stored. I had hoped that Mary would have taken some steps to explain how she and her groups got their hands on this potentially bombshell data.

What I found equally frustrating is Fanning’s lack of curiosity or effort in sorting the data by State and County. This could have been a stunning follow up to the DePerno interview. DePerno’s evidence showing there was a massive movement of improperly counted votes away from Trump going to Biden in Antrim County could have been corroborated by Fanning. Sadly, that opportunity is ignored in this video. Just a passing reference to Antrim.

The evidence of the theft is out there and it is being put together by a group of top notch attorneys. I just hope that people with deep pockets like Mike Lindell do a better job of putting together the videos that tell this story. Telling it loudly and widely is essential to defeating the Deep State.

Here is a video that does it right (https://rumble.com/vdlomr-unveiled-the-2020-election.html):

Mike may be the last hope of someone to try a lawsuit with Dominion et al.. So far anyone sued has backed off quick. If no one stands up to the legal threat they win.

HOCKEYPUCK! It was a well done video and warranting a full investigation of the fraud. How much evidence does one need when a crime is so blatantly obvious. This reminds me of the movie “ A GUIDE FOR THE MARRIED MAN “ where Joey Bishop is caught in bed with this gal by his wife and he gets up and gets dressed and keeps saying “ what woman “, “ where “, “ I don’t see any woman “.

Yes. Mike Lindell’s video focuses much more on the detail of voting machines and servers.

I have not seen anyone prove that the IP addresses shown by Mary Fanning are incorrect. An explanation of how this data was collected could add to its veracity.

It is hard for people with closed minds, from normalxy bias or rejection bias, to learn truth because they presume they already know and won’t be bothered.

No, you show you have seen a lot and rejected it. You are a fraud.

Maybe Mike Lindell can do and update on his movie with all these constructive inputs taken into account. I for one am curious as to how her team was able to gather the IP and MAC Addreses.

Also, an introduction to Mary Fanning’s background would be helpful.

Can you share with us examples of such evidence that you found convincing?

It seems as though Dr. Shiva’s analysis was similar to what forensic accountants do. He worked with publicly available evidence and revealed the odds of Biden winning being astronomically small. These types of analyses are allowed as supporting evidence in court.

If he curious of the ratings. Many here liked it but thought it was too long. I’m going to watch it eventually when I can spare the time.

Come on dude. Is this video the Bible of election fraud? Why are you being a jerk because this person got information by reading instead of having it regurgitated like you did? Mike probably did the best he could. But there is a slew of information out there without having it spoon fed.

Where did I say I rejected it? I saw suitcases of ballots coming out from under tables when counting was supposedly done for the night. I heard of vans full of ballots showing up after the deadline for absentee ballots and after the counting rooms were closed for the night. I saw vote counts change in real time on the TV screen. I saw votes flip. I saw mathematical models showing the improbability of such late breaking onslaught of ballots for Biden, in areas which have proportionally higher GOP registrations Biden got proportionally higher votes which not only defies logic but suggests that the machines were using algorithms to flip votes based on registration data for the precincts. I have heard reports of USB drives being used/lost/re-used. I have heard reports that the data was sent overseas before being tabulated and returned to registrars. And I’ve seen evidence of invalid ballots. I believe there was widespread fraud. I want to see it all in one place, as concisely as possible.

Besides which your disagreement shouldn’t be with me. If there is ever to be any traction among the skeptics, it has to be shown to them in a simple fashion. They are the ones you have beef with. They will never listen to Mike, nor watch 3 hours of him presenting. It should be, as I said, just the facts and evidence.

See my post above. The most convincing evidence I saw, other than the suitcases being pulled out from under the tables when the counting room was supposed to be stopped for the night (and they covered the glass) was a video done by 3 professors of statistics, iirc from MIT.

They said they saw this pattern occur in scores of counties across the country, but presented with about 6 examples, two of which I believe were in Michigan. They showed that the higher the GOP registration in a particular precinct, the greater the votes broke for Biden. They plotted it out with graphs. So for example, if a precinct had 25% higher GOP registration, it had something in the area of 20% MORE votes for Biden than for Trump. Which totally defies logic. And if this happened in one precinct it could be an aberration but they showed it occurring in every precinct in Detroit metro area - the graph had 100s of little dots showing the deviation from the mean. That’s just not statistically possible at all for the man who got the 2nd highest vote count in American history (probably the 1st highest vote if not for the fraud). And each precinct, almost exactly the same ratio relative to registration numbers. Strong evidence that the tabulation machines were flipping or stripping votes according to an algorithm.

I’ll have to search for the video. That video alone was about 1 hour long but it was a livestream, unedited.

Yeah I agree. Mike was a bit spazmatic and the editing was pretty piss poir. If you want to see a devistating one on the voter fraud, this one is shorter,(16 mins) to the point and better done. This should be shown at Trumps impeachment trial

The only MIT professor I know who showed the statistical impossibility of Biden’s victory is the one from Prof. Shiva Ayadurrai.

Here is his video:

Is the video in this website the one you are referring to?

I’m surprised YouTube has not blocked it yet.
