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.

Dominion did what any responsible company in that position would do.

If you are in the business of producing and selling voting machine hardware and software and anyone goes out peddling stories about your products with no basis in fact, you're pretty much out of business.

Why don’t you get out of your backwoods and start to think like a real engineer instead of just accepting the bullsh!t you read on the internet at face value?

I believe the claims of mass fraud were likely fake news

There was absolute proof of election altering fraud... President Trump laid out much of it in his speech on January 6. If you believe the media, Biden and the Democrats over President Trump you are "likely" a moron.

Your parents didn't tuck tail and run. They fought, regardless of the outcome.

And they have regretted the millions of dollars they lost to a corrupt system every day since.

That’s a valid point, but it’s a dilemma that any company selling products and software to the government faces. If they can’t maintain proprietary ownership of their code, then they can only sell it once and the cost of buying it will be enormous.

Yes, but I was not speaking of biblical times thousands of years ago, but today in our modern world. I was also speaking metaphorically.

You think “Biblical times” somehow came to an end?

Dominion, if it were a responsible company, should have determined whether or not their machines were used for fraudulent purposes. Instead, they’re going after people who might have inferred whether or not their machines were actually committing fraud. They’re going on the offense when they are not the primary entity being blamed for the fraud; not the actions of an innocent party; there are other ways to clear one’s good name (if they have any) besides that.

We are at the stage where we find out who believes keeping or making money is more important then standing up for the Constitution and our nation.

Many have died defending the aforementioned but American Thinker wont be one of them.

Not knocking them as it’s clear they think maintaining a comfortable lifestyle is what’s most important and that’s their right to choose.

There is no court evidence in Italy to the contrary. None!


Your whole post is an island of sanity in a sea of Kracken nonsense. Yes the election was stolen in the ways you state plus 100% negative MSM bias against Trump didn’t help either. I truly believe that if the media was even 50% less biased that we still could have one even with all the fraud.

It’s pretty sad that these Trump associated lawyers have sucked so many people into this crap. There will be people on this discussion board believing these machines were a big problem for years all because of their false claims. These lawyers should all be ashamed of themselves. I hope they get disbarred.

The bottom line is this: if AT had real proof to back up their stories they would have presented it. Dominion obviously is not afraid of discovery and AT knew that they couldn't deliver or they wouldn't have backed down. IF they had proof, there would have been no shortage of conservative lawyers who would have defended AT.

All I hear are theories and allegations but so far nothing in the way of proof has been presented anywhere to any court to substantiate these charges. It appears that Giuliani, Wood and Powell have been misleading us and more tragically have mislead the President. When push came to shove, they put up nothing but a goose egg when it counted (in court)

It sucks to be lied to by people who were previously considered trustworthy. It's not our fault and I will never take all 3 seriously again. It's almost as if they have undone the good they accomplished prior to this For the record, I was with them them until Thanksgiving weekend when it became obvious they had nothing.

If they have access to the machines, they have access to the code.

Good, old-fashioned, and time-tested ballot stuffing. The machines just made it more efficient to double or triple count a stack of ballots (”Hey, Sally, run this stack of ballots through the counter a few more times.”).
