American Thinker Apologizes for False Stories about Dominion Voting Machines
American Thinker ^ | 1/15/2021 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 01/15/2021 9:52:50 AM PST by Kevin C

We received a lengthy letter from Dominion's defamation lawyers explaining why they believe that their client has been the victim of defamatory statements. Having considered the full import of the letter, we have agreed to their request that we publish the following statement: American Thinker and contributors Andrea Widburg, R.D. Wedge, Brian Tomlinson, and Peggy Ryan have published pieces on www.AmericanThinker.com that falsely accuse US Dominion Inc., Dominion Voting Systems, Inc., and Dominion Voting Systems Corporation (collectively “Dominion”) of conspiring to steal the November 2020 election from Donald Trump. These pieces rely on discredited sources who have peddled debunked theories about Dominion’s supposed ties to Venezuela, fraud on Dominion’s machines that resulted in massive vote switching or weighted votes, and other claims falsely stating that there is credible evidence that Dominion acted fraudulently. These statements are completely false and have no basis in fact. Industry experts and public officials alike have confirmed that Dominion conducted itself appropriately and that there is simply no evidence to support these claims. It was wrong for us to publish these false statements. We apologize to Dominion for all of the harm this caused them and their employees. We also apologize to our readers for abandoning 9 journalistic principles and misrepresenting Dominion’s track record and its limited role in tabulating votes for the November 2020 election. We regret this grave error.

It’s hard to say it’s not true if an official investigation hasn’t been made.

The courts shut it down

Provide me the evidence of that claim.

Why did Dominion refuse to allow forensic examination of their machines and cited the private and proprietary nature of their software IN COURT????

Yes, people have tried to examine and hack them - with success, which is why many State’s refused to use them. I have seen nor read anything about SOURCE CODE (not binary executables) being made available for line-by-line examination. If that had happened there would be zero questions about whether they connect to networks (wireless or not).

Second, the tabulation machines are one thing. Then there’s the PC’s they get to download to and then the servers they connect to. This system is a cybersecurity nightmare. There is ZERO reason to believe in its integrity. It’s practically convoluted by design. That the operator can ‘decide’ what a vote is and move votes around is an abomination.

FYI...I’m a software architect. I have spoken at conferences on cybersecurity. This thing isn’t just a problem, it is designed to enable fraud.

That you’re defending this ‘product’ and the conduct shown by the owners is disturbing. I’ve followed this for months, I’ve seen ‘altered data’ feeds. There is no question that thousands of votes were switched. I have the data files on my PC.

As software EXPERT I have zero confidence in the integrity of our elections using such systems. I have seen NOTHING to indicate that the SOURCE CODE has been examined by 3rd parties. They have patents they claim to be protecting. I have no idea where you’re getting your information but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence...especially considering whom owns the company and the business & political relationships surrounding it.

Please provide specifics. I’m fine with being wrong but I’ve seen nothing to back up your claim.

What about that “revolverkampf am O.K. Corral”, that those consonant dropping people were raving about?

But when it gets to the point that there have been so many lies perpetuated by the left, deep staters, etc then the TRUTH is told and one believes it any longer - does really evevn matter any longer - Russian Hoax, all a Hoax - for 4 years - doesn’t matter; Call for an Insurrection on the the Capital - was it - diversions and lies - TRUTHS come out or when they do - it (they) don’t even matter (even if they get reported).

If you know the TRUTH but no one else does in today’s society, or let’s say a few 100,000 individuals know the same truth in TODAY’s society - but it is not nor can not be spoken and the masses do not know nor believe what does it matter any more? Taking to your grave? Voting your conviction? Ha! That process died for good in 2020 if it is a real threat to the DEEP DEEP STATE EVIL EMPIRE US GOVT!

Options...NONE! You and a few of your buddies KNOW the TRUTH! Move along - end of that story line!

This is required by the lawyers I guess.

I wish they would apologize for putting out such a junky site though.

Adding 1 to a running total is patented?

All of this, in the end points to a greater, knowable Truth, the capital T Truth which transcends even death itself.

All your meandering words can be summed up with Pontius Pilate’s 3-word assertion, “what is truth?” which was a heady browbeating cocksure complicity that there is NO truth. But the capital T Truth was looking right into his eyes at that very moment and Pilate sent that Truth to die.

No one denies that Jesus died that day, and that He died for merely uttering words. That is the starting point truth, then you proceed to understand what His words meant. His enemies sure understood.

Even His enemies acknowledge that Jesus was put to death for blasphemy, for claiming to be equal with God.

This is the bigger Truth to pursue.

Did they “go silent” because they chose to go silent, or because they were deliberately censored and removed from the internet? There are a lot of things that search engines used to pull up, that don’t exist anymore. If it is the latter, I would not be too surprised.

Powerfully spoken...if only it can / will make a different in someone’s lifetime on this in this ‘chat room’ will it matter...and benefits? The one(s) that know the TRUTH? All in vain...but thanks for your deep incites!

I fear what most people know to be TRUTH today is 1) we have a TWO TIERED JUSTICE SYSTEM and 2) that with “Presidential ELECTIONS now out in the open as SELECTIONS” - all hope is lost that there will ever be a ‘Constitutional Republic again in this country!

Every control / leadership (DEMs, govt, media, deep state, big tech, even CEO big bus/banks) position is stacked up to destroy, censor & cancel any non left thought or speech.

The only TRUTH universally known and accepted is that ‘conservatism, free speech is dead and any means to try and change that is shutting down fast and if anyone tries to go against that you will be further censored and cancelled and charged and tried “insurrection” - tight box to fight out of with all the walls in the way!

Kinda like the consent decree the REPUBs were forced to sign back in 1965 with the DEMs where they couldn’t ever contest voter fraud by DEMs again in any election - REPUBs were accused of telling blacks that DEMs were leaders of KKK in south?? Lie??? TRUTH See why DEMs feel like they have THE RIGHT TO CHEAT cause they can w/o repercussions!

Sorry rambling - stick to the (your) TRUTH!

There is TRUTH - you know it for yourself! It ends there! One just can’t speak of it any longer nor try and help others see it - is that better? The worlds demise stands! Long live the statue quo...although the slippage into the quirky sewage of socialism/communism is still allowed....

I had never heard of a consent decree for 1965. I hope to look deeper into it.

Keep pursuing and valuing TRUTH. Even when it hurts.

Provide me the evidence of that claim.

It doesn't take much effort to search the internet for evidence that these machines have been thoroughly tested and undergone software audits.

The U.S. Election Assistance Commision audits voting systems.

And here's an audit of Dominion software by the State of California.

That's just a starting point.

You’re incredibly naive...sorry. You’re basically stating that the government doing an audit of the equipment they decided to buy, knowing what could be done, is, somehow, trustworthy.

I am a software expert - I’m not going to argue with you, these machines are not secure. It isn’t debatable - all you need to understand is their architecture.
