The moment we’ve all been waiting for arrives tonight at 9PM Eastern.
The Communist #Resistance have received their talking points. They’re calling for the major television networks to ban the President’s announcement from the air waves. Former CNN White House Correspondent James Acosta livestreamed Wednesday afternoon with Dean Obeidallah touting the Communist talking point. This would just create a Streisand Effect, since it will be widely available online.
For his part, former Overstock CEO/CIA asset Patrick Byrne, who has spent over $60 million of his personal fortune investigating this fraud suspects the President is being gatekept from the entirety of the information and therefore, he may not reveal the whole truth about what he’s found to be a worldwide election fraud operation run by the CIA, China, Venezuela, Cuba, Iran and others, that has overthrown 72 countries over the past two decades.
He joined Emerald Robinson on The Absolute Truth podcast on Wednesday to discuss the momentous address, telling her, “The voter rolls are important, but they are flat lying to the President, if they say this other stuff has ‘not been proven’. They’re lying through their teeth. It’s been proven, these Government scientists documented it in a number of places.”
Patrick cites the Jim Penrose Report, in which two respected Government scientists, Jeff Lindbergh and the NSA’s Jim Penrose proved that the machines in Antrim County, Michigan switched the votes of Candidate A to go to Candidate B, the votes of Candidate B go to Candidate C and C to A. In 2020, this was done with Biden, Trump, and the Green Party candidate. The report also documents foreign IPs signing into the voting system.
Additionally, the ‘Mesa report’ is the forensic analysis of the drive image of the Mesa County, Colorado Dominion server that was saved by then-Mesa County Clerk, Tina Peters that found “Evidence of unauthorized and illegal manipulation of tabulated vote data during the 2020 General Election and 2021 Grand Junction Municipal Election.”
Patrick says he spent two years with Venezuelan Smartmatic engineers who developed a “smorgasbord of techniques” into the software, one of which is known as the “SAES injection”, Smartmatic Automated Electoral System injection. He says this method was deployed on elections worldwide from their massive Chinese Huawei server farm in Belgrade, Serbia, where ballot images were jammed into the system to override the legitimate ballot images. He says, “These things go beyond just tampering with the voter rolls.”
He continues:
“I think that there is a lot of misinformation thrown at the President from the CIA…The reason the voter rolls are so important, when you take a ballot and you submit it, you can’t just submit any ballot and stuff that easily. There’s a live list of people who have voted, a voter roll, and the machines take that and it goes over and it’s gotta pick one person on the voter roll to scratch off and say, ‘OK, this guy voted.’
“So, as you stuff the machines, maybe using the mail-in ballot system, you’ve gotta have that. But on top of that, if you can’t get enough done that way, then there’s these games that go on within the machines…
“There are some bad forces at work who are trying to convince the President, ‘Oh, these are just different theories and we better stick to what we know.’ That’s because they’re trying to protect the machines and the Agency wants to protect the machines, because they don’t want it to come out. They want to keep using them and they don’t really want them looked at too closely, because of the past. So those are the kinds of issues.”
Patrick says he’s not sure if the President has been briefed that there are several people who worked on the development of Smartmatic software who then proceeded to work for the American voting companies Sequoia, Dominion Voting Systems and Hart InterCivic.
Patrick posted a screenshot of the LinkedIn profile of Fabiola Arrivilaga, which shows that she worked on the Venezuela elections in 2003 and worked on the Cook County, Illinois elections in 2006.
2006 is the same year that Patrick’s investigation found that the Venezuelan Smartmatic technology first broke into US elections in Cook County (i.e., Chicago), where they stole the election there. Then, they went to New Jersey and stole elections there.
2006 is the year New York Congresswoman, Carolyn Maloney, received a tip about Smartmatic and wrote a letter to Treasury Secretary John Snow, which spurred an investigation by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which discovered that the Venezuelans had disguised the owners of Smartmatic, leading the Treasury Department to announce they did not trust this software.
As a result, the owners of Smartmatic bought another company called Sequoia, installing their software into Sequoia machines. When they tried to get the contract to run elections in the State of California, the Secretary of State initiated their own investigation of the software with professors from Berkeley and MIT, who found that it was filled with backdoors, so it was rejected in California during Governor Schwarzenegger’s tenure.
A year later, in 2011, Jerry Brown was elected governor of California and his administration changed the law so that the software didn’t need to be reviewed by this committee and Sequoia promptly landed the contract to run elections in California. Ever since, every election in California has been run using “Software that was developed in Venezuela and a part of a whole criminal conspiracy that includes Venezuela, Cuba, China, Russia and Serbia,” according to Ralph Pazzullo, author of ‘Stolen Elections’, which details all of the above.
Last October, Dominion was purchased by Liberty Vote and it’s unclear who is working there now but it’s basically the same company with the same software and equipment as before.
Patrick believes that Trump’s advisors are keeping all of this information from him. The sense he’s getting from the participants involved is that they’ve limited the scope of what’s been going on to Trump.
Emerald then moves the conversation to the topic of China, which was something that the Intelligence Community sought to suppress in 2020. One might ask why would 15 to 20 intelligence members who knew about this want to not include it in a final report?
Patrick also reminds us of Government reports in late October, 2020 and on the morning of November 3rd, that Iran had successfully penetrated US voter rolls and there are other nations involved. Those “other nations” included China.
But he says that when he and Sidney Powell met with President Trump in the Oval Office on December 18, 2020 and showed him those Government documents, he was unaware of this, no one had even told him. Patrick believes that Trump continues to be “Under-informed by people around him trying to shape what he does.”
We’ll see soon enough.
TRANSCRIPT
Emerald: Hello, welcome to The Absolute Truth. I am Emerald Robinson. Now, as you probably already heard, President Donald Trump is set to address the nation this Thursday night at 9 PM Eastern.
And of course, I’ll just add in that you absolutely can watch that, right here on LindellTV.com. If you’re gonna be out and about, I know there’s lots of baseball, kids’ baseball games going on, et cetera, you can take it on-the-go with you. Download our app, the LTV app, from the App Store to every device that you have because you’re not gonna wanna miss this. We’ve been waiting for this for a long time.
And in making the announcement about the address, there were not really any additional details given about the topic that have been officially released by the White House. However, our sources confirm other reporting that the President plans to brief the American people on foreign election interference in the 2020 election.
There’s speculation that he will heavily focus on China, perhaps infiltration into our voter rolls and they say he will specifically hit 2020 fraud in the state of Georgia where there are a lot of FBI personnel on the ground currently getting interviews.
But how far will the President go on intelligence related to the actual electronic voting machines and the voting machine software? Will the President on Thursday night lay the groundwork for an executive order of a National Emergency to get rid of electronic voting machines prior to the Midterm elections?
Joining us now to discuss is the person who accurately predicted that the President would remove commissioners from the Election Assistance Commission, which he did last week ahead of this address. Joining us now is Mr Patrick Byrne.
Patrick, it’s good to see you. Now, a lot of this is speculation, right? Anytime ahead of the President’s address, you’ll hear inside reports or the mainstream media laying narratives to counter what they expect him to say. And so you can kind of derive from that often what you will about what he might say.
I’m just gonna throw it to you first and generally asking, what do you expect to hear from him, Patrick, as someone who’s been intimately involved in what happened in the 2020 election?
Patrick: Yes, well, thank you, Emerald. It’s good to be seen. I don’t claim any more insight than the next monkey here, but I do follow this closely and I know the people who were feeding him – a lot of the people feeding the system, the information.
I think that you’re going to see a lot of indication for us on a lot of fronts. I’ll repeat what I’ve been saying for some time on your show, that I was with the Venezuelans who’ve developed this into a science for two years overseas. And there’s a whole smorgasbord of techniques that they bring and apply.
And some of them are these very on-the-ground ways and some of them are sort of esoteric things that require using, that the computers have settings and ways to harness them.
I think in general, the pressure is to only talk about these ways, to the point that I’m not even sure the President’s been informed. Yes, there is ‘Absolute Proof’ as your show would call it, on that the computers are faulty, the computers do this and that.
But the things that, without going into – I’ll close on this – before you stuff a ballot box, you have to stuff the voter rolls. So much of it really begins with the voter rolls. And I think that it’s fine, if that’s what it does, that it’s gonna come out, to be able to explain how bad our voter rolls are, that’d be a wonderful advance. If we just get that cleaned-up, it chokes off a lot of the downstream cheating.
Emerald: I agree with you, there. I guess you could say the voter roll issue is step one. It’s sort of the first line in how the experts explain it to me. Enable election fraud and election manipulation. But then of course, there is the issue of the voting machines, right? The software.
And then the voter rolls are used to backfill. According to experts I talked to, this is how you can do it, OK? This is how it can be done. And they have seen it done. Is that once the votes manipulated or flipped, then you use the dirty voter rolls to cover your tracks, by filling in those people with votes.
But here’s my concern, because I’ve heard some of the people who I know are advising the President on this. One person in particular come out many times on the media and say, “Look, it’s not about the machines. We don’t have proof that the machines flip votes. We really got this mail-in ballot problem. We’ve got a voter roll issue. We’ve got some foreign interference in certain ways, but it’s not the machines.” This person will say, “We’re not talking about the machines here.”
So I am concerned, given the people who are supposed to be in that speech and some who are advising that the President might say that and undermine his position that he has held on machines and lay the groundwork, will not lay the groundwork for getting rid of the machines, because he will undercut it by saying, “Well, it’s not the machines here. We have no proof of that.”
Because I’m pretty sure we’ve laid out extensively that there is solid proof of machine flipping votes, of vulnerabilities. And even I think he might talk about Venezuela and Smartmatic, but if he doesn’t tie it to the threat to our elections, then that could be problematic.
And just getting there, there’s also the fact, and I’m not sure if the President has been briefed on this, that there are people who worked on the development of Smartmatic machines, right? That worked for Smartmatic, worked for Sequoia, worked for Dominion Voting Systems. I don’t know. I’d have to check to see, and I’m not sure we’re even clear on who has moved on to Liberty Vote, but there’s names like Jairo Garcia, who now works for Hart InterCivic. He was a Venezuelan national that worked for Smartmatic, worked for Sequoia, right? And now he’s still working on our elections.
Here’s his résumé. If you go through it, he’s been an elections administrator in Dallas County. He’s worked in Tarrant County. He’s worked in Auburn, California, which is Placer County, which is a very Red area. I know it well.
But he has this Smartmatic background. That’s a problem, if the President does lay out that, “Yes, Venezuela has Smartmatic, they’ve stolen elections there, but even if he says we don’t have proof, they’ve done it here. There’s so many of these players and there’s other people too, right, Patrick?
Patrick: Yes. Oh yeah. I think that there is a lot of misinformation thrown at the President from the CIA. Just to back up a second, the reason the voter rolls are so important, when you take a ballot and you submit it, you can’t just submit any ballot and stuff that easily. There’s a list of people who, a live list of people who have voted, a voter roll, and the machines take that and it goes over and it’s gotta pick one person on the voter roll to scratch off and say, “OK, this guy voted.”
So, as you stuff the machines, maybe using the mail-in ballot system, you’ve gotta have that. But on top of that, if you can’t get enough done that way, then there’s these games that go on within the machines.
One is something that was absolutely proven by two Government scientists, Jeff Lindbergh and the guy from NSA, Jim Penrose, that very esteemed government scientists that have left, they proved that in Michigan there was this, they do an index change. So the votes of Candidate A go to Candidate B, the votes of Candidate B go to Candidate C and C to A. So it changes. And they did that with Biden, Trump, and whoever that Green Party candidate was. So there’s that shifting, that’s done by some monkey business within the machine.
And then, at the end of the day, there’s also this thing they call the “SAES injection”, Smartmatic Automated Electoral System injection, where from Serbia, you are just jamming in a whole bunch of ballots, ballot images that override the ballot images that are in there.
So these things go beyond just tampering with the voter rolls. I know, if I’m talking to people in this environment in DC, there’s those who poo-poo this stuff and say, “Well, that stuff’s never really been proven,” or “There’s different theories about it,” and “This is about the voter rolls.”
Well, the voter rolls are important, but they are flat lying to the President, if they say this stuff – this other stuff – has “not been proven”. They’re lying through their teeth.
It’s been proven, it’s in government – these government scientists documented it in a number of places. Stephanie Lambert should be advised, I think long ago, should be, but there are government scientists who’ve documented that other, purely inside-the-machine kind of stuff did happen in 2020.
But there are some bad forces at work who are trying to convince the President, “Oh, these are just different theories and we better stick to what we know.” That’s because they’re trying to protect the machines and the Agency wants to protect the machines, because they don’t want it to come out. They want to keep using them and they don’t really want them looked at too closely, because of the past. So those are the kinds of issues.
I think, so far the news about Trump is that he’s focusing on or being led to focus on this stuff, but they’re fighting teeth, toes and fingernails to keep him away from understanding about the machines. And they’re telling him stuff, well, things we’ve never been proven that is flat false. It’s absolutely been found and documented to have happened.
Emerald: Yeah, and we did put up, you were referencing what is known as the – in election security circles – the “Jim Penrose Report” with Mr Lindbergh, as well, where they did this test and that’s involved in Michigan. We talked about Antrim County and how the votes flipped.
J. Alex Halderman, while saying one thing in the Curling vs Raffensperger case, tries to say that it was “human error” in Antrim County, Michigan, but these two gentlemen proved that they believe that it’s indeed was machine manipulation and they laid it out in this testing in a very, very detailed report that was part of that case, as well.
And as part of the body of evidence, right, from 2020 that proves, you know, what you’ve been alleging, I believe, and what Mr Lindell has been alleging and others. But there are other people that, go ahead.
Patrick: I believe they’re keeping all that from Trump. From what I understand, they’re keeping all that from Trump. They don’t tell President Trump about that stuff. They’ve kind of limited the scope of what they’ll show him about. That’s basically the sense I’m getting from the participants involved.
Emerald: And there’s other Smartmatic, former Smartmatic employees that are working within our election system. There’s another guy named Federico Arnal, allegedly he worked – did work for Smartmatic, right? And he then went on to Sequoia. So when you’re talking about, say Venezuela and Smartmatic, that’s not separate from what we have in the United States, because of this cross-pollination of the technicians, the employees, the integration of the software.
So I’ll be interested to see what he says. And then we can, you know, come back on Friday and we can break it down more and compare what he says to what else we have in the body of evidence. And perhaps this is just a primer.
Patrick: I think you’re onto something. I think that what they might get him to say is, “OK, we have also documented that Smartmatic cheated in a bunch of Venezuela elections, but we don’t know if that migrated into our American elections. We’ve never seen proof of it since 2020.”
If that is what they’re telling him, they are misinforming him. There’s the migration of the people that you just showed and there, that’s up on their LinkedIns. And there’s the migration of the software.
Emerald: This is still on LinkedIn. I just checked this morning. So this is really recent. I just checked their LinkedIn this morning. All this is still there. I did document it.
Patrick: Yeah, there’s the migration of the technology, the people and the effects have been documented. Look, we know in Pennsylvania and Michigan, there were hundreds of foreign sign-ons on these computers. That was all tracked down.
So the idea that if he comes down and says, “Well, we do know that Venezuelan elections were robbed for 25 years, but we don’t know if any of that technical stuff contaminated our elections.” He’s being misinformed. It absolutely did. It’s been documented.
The foreign sign-ons done by government scientists like Penrose and Lindbergh documented this beautifully. That’s why they had to throw Tina Peters in the hooscow for nine years, because that’s the stuff that came out of her, because she did what she did.
Emerald: The ‘Mesa report’.
Also, let’s talk about China. I think we are probably gonna hear a lot about China. And yes, China has a significant role in this. Obviously, that’s something that the Intelligence Community sought to suppress in 2020. And you have to ask why? Why would you have 15 to 20 intelligence members who knew about this want to not include it in a final report? That’s something else we can expound on later.
It’s an important question, but you cannot say “just China” without bringing it into full contact with Venezuela and then here as well, right?
Patrick: Correct. It’s really, I think of it as a joint venture of Venezuela-Cuba, but the major shareholders in the background are actually Iran and China, which is one of the reasons I’ve said this was a massive Act of War. They overthrew our country and those are the nations that were involved.
Remember, in this famous December 18th, 2020 meeting that I walked into with General Flynn and Sidney Powell into the Oval Office, we had statements from the Government. One had come out like October 23rd, 2020, one was the morning of November 3rd.
The statements from the Government said, the first one said, “We know that Iran is trying to penetrate our voter rolls.” By November 3rd, they said, “Iran has successfully penetrated voter rolls in one state, it’s going after other states and there are other nations involved.” Those “other nations”, that was China.
So we’ve known – the Government knew – since November 3rd, 2020, that there was this, and you know what? President Trump didn’t know about that. When we showed him those documents and said, “Look, these are statements from the Government itself, last month in November,” no one had even told him. So he’s just misinformed and under-informed by people around him trying to shape what he does.
Emerald: So yeah, and this was, Ratcliffe actually went out and made a statement that day on November 3rd, 2020. Everybody’s caught up in the election, so I don’t think it got a lot of attention that day. But, you know, he’ll be there on Thursday. I expect to hear more about Iran, too.
OK, before we run out of time, there was some breaking news relevant to you this week as well. We’re also talking about the judiciary a little bit later in the show.
And maybe this is an excellent example of our broken judiciary. A judge in Hunter Biden’s defamation case against you, just awarded Hunter Biden an extremely large sum of money, right? It has caught the attention, well, I mean, compared to what it is. And I say this because I thought, you know, the legal analyst, Jonathan Turley, who you see on Fox News all the time, this caught Turley’s attention.
And he did, I don’t know if you’ve seen it, Turley did this excellent breakdown of why this was such an absurd award from the judge. She said, he’s never seen damages awarded with that ratio, that one to $1.7 million ratio, he said explicitly, is a bit startling. And he thinks this is a great case for appeal.
What was your reaction to the judge’s ruling? A total lack of surprise. This is why six months ago, I just stopped even being polite about this judge. He’s a crotchety, 85 year old guy, super left, super pro-Biden, operating in Los Angeles, which is very Biden territory.
We’re absolutely gonna appeal this, I think we have great grounds. This is a very strange guy, I’ll be real quick. He, five years ago, well, anyway, at the center of this case, there are three voicemails that I have while on government assignment dealing with an Iranian.
And in those voicemails that I obtained, I purloined, there were overtures from, anyway, from Hunter Biden’s man. Well, this is what I understand, Hunter Biden’s guy making overtures of influence peddling to China. I came back and turned them into the government.
And then later I wrote about them in a book when there was nobody and Hunter sued me. They’re bending themselves and this judge is contorting into pretzels. They never wanna see those voicemails see the light of day.
I have them, I have them right on this phone and in plenty of backups places too, but I have them. And so they’re contorting to do everything to help him win where he never has to actually, there’s no courtroom or place where these ever get public. Yes, people say, I didn’t show up.
I had a whole legal team there and at the trial, I had dismissed my lead lawyer, but I had Peter Tickton who had previously a few days earlier had been admitted by this judge who the judge, he was gonna be there in the 48 hours. We couldn’t have done the voir dire. The judge just threw off the case.
Stephanie Lambert threw her off the case on the spot. She stood up her opening words from our side was judge, we’re ready to go to trial today. The judge threw her off, said I’m not because she had his indictments at Michigan.
One of which has since been thrown out by the appellate court is nonsense and the others soon to be. Then I had a very esteemed ninth circuit appellate guy, a guy who did Roger Root, who just specialize in this. He wrote the court and said, Patrick is now represented by me.
Contact me with any information. The judge and Hunter never, never contacted him. Then there was another, the terms that they were high, they were holding quickie hearings without giving me any notice.
You have to notice both parties. I was getting no notice. He took the, there’s one lawyer who’s not my lawyer, who I fired in writing and said, you’re not, you can’t receive anything from me.
You don’t represent me. You don’t speak for me. You don’t take notice for me.
Turns out the judge has just overridden that and said, no, that guy’s Patrick Byrne’s lawyer. Well, I didn’t know you could do that. I had blocked the guy’s email since all this started.
And then there was another hearing this January, right before the January 20 trial that I was driving down the West coast from. I think I came on to this show and mentioned I’m driving down, I’m on my way to the case starts in a few days. They called a quickie hearing.
I had my new lawyer show up at the quickie hearing. He filed his appearance, showed up at the hearing and the judge said, no, I don’t recognize you, sit down. And the guy tried to speak.
The guy said, not one more word, sit down. And then ran the whole thing like Byrne, no Byrne, no lawyer was at the hearing. He’s defaulting.
That’s, and then he can’t. So I show up for the trial and he canceled it. So this judge has fired four of my attorneys and then saying, I don’t show up, I don’t show up with attorneys on me.
So I’m skipping the trial and I default. It’s bizarre, but he’s going to, this guy once five years ago, I’ll close on a quick anecdote. He, a woman lawyer stood up in his court and was trying to say something.
He said, no, sit down and not one more word out of you or I hold you in contempt. And she tried to speak again. He had the bailiff grab her, not just handcuffed, but leg shackled her and marched her down 10 flights of stairs in high heels and put her in a holding cell next to an overflowing toilet for 10 hours.
And so she grieved, it all turned into a thing, but this guy’s like this mad judge. So this is no surprise at all. He’s part of, at some point, I might just give you the voicemails.
This judge, this is all going to be appealed. We think we have very easy, Charlie’s correct. This is very easy appellate territory.
And he’s made so many, not just this stuff, but other things. Hunter Biden and I, we promised each other we could do our depositions by Zoom. He asked for it, so it saved him a 90 minute drive across LA.
So I said, fine, if I get the same courtesy. Came to be my turn, I was in Qatar having a heart attack. I was in and out of a hospital.
And the judge said, that’s not good enough. You got to fly 18 hours home. Mr. Hunter Biden is so delicate, he can’t drive 90 minutes, but Byrne, you got to fly 18 hours home.
And I said, so there’s this kind of asymmetry that’s gone on from the beginning. Well, Charlie thinks you have a good case for appeal. So we’ll keep covering it.
It’s good to see you, Patrick. We’ll see you back later in the week when we know a little bit more from Thursday night. We’re all- It’s good to be seen.
All live on Thursday. Thanks, Patrick. Thank you.
