The Guardian has a story detailing the firing of Christopher Krebs, who served as the director of the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa)

President Trump made the announcement on Twitter on Tuesday, saying Krebs "has been terminated" and that his recent statement defending the security of the election was "highly inaccurate".

CISA last week released a statement refuting claims of widespread voter fraud. "The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history," the statement read. "There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."

Krebs, is a former Microsoft executive, and was appointed by President Trump after allegations of Russian interference with the 2016 election.

    Are you in CA? For the good of the nation, faith in our election system, etc. I suggest you do what I outlined above: find a politically/elections oriented lawyer, engage with him and several judges to "test the system" and do just what you proposed - attempt to register 100 fraudulent voters at PO boxes and get the ballots for the 2022 congressional elections. Don't mail them in to vote them, just obtain the ballots and have the lawyer document the process and show how you have done it. See if you can avoid getting caught until January 4 2023 when the congresscritters who would have been affected by your fraudulent ballots are seated in office. Maybe an even better test of the system would be to vote for the darkest horse on the ticket, just to show you can really get away with it.

    Seems to me that if it were do-able, even just in CA, with a population of 40 million there should be more than one "investigative journalist" who would have blown the lid off this thing with solid evidence BEFORE steal-gate hit Trump in the face.

      What's an investigative journalist?

      A dying breed of people who go find out actual shit, document it to a reasonable level of proof, and publish it for fame and prizes. Much easier to listen to your audience, echo back what they want to hear and collect advertising revenue: capitalism triumphing again.
