This is going to be huge! They kept the scam a secret, thinking they could convince the people Joe won as a distraction so no one would notice till it was too late.
Just a few more nails in the DNC coffin. What else are we going to uncover in this nest of rats?
Here it comes folks. The ripping back of the curtain on the once great Oz. :thumbsup:

Arizona Senate Chairman to Subpoena Audit of Dominion Machines, Software
An Arizona Senate chairman on Monday announced he will order through a subpoena in the state's largest county to audit their voting machines and software.
Maricopa County officials told legislators during a six-hour public hearing that they wanted to conduct an audit, but were advised they couldn't by lawyers because of ongoing litigation.
"We understand that the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors feels constrained, based upon the recommendations by legal counsel, in their ability to perform a forensic audit of the voting equipment software during this ongoing litigation. We don't know how long that's going to happen," state Sen. Eddie Farnsworth, a Republican who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, said at the conclusion the hearing.
"I recognize and I will state that the chairman has been very clear in saying that he supports an audit, but as long as the constraints exist because of ongoing or additional litigation, they don't feel like they can perform an audit, which continues to leave our constituents feeling like, maybe this election was compromised. So with that said, it is therefore in my intent to exercise my authority as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and, with the full support of the Senate president, to issue subpoenas in an effort to audit the equipment software and ballots."
Some of the language was already drafted, the senator said, and the subpoenas could be issued as soon as Tuesday.
Clint Hickman, the chair of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, told the committee earlier in the hearing that there were already plans for an audit but officials couldn't move forward because litigation is ongoing.
"We have to wait for this litigation to be over," he said. "And then the board has much more freedom to look at its equipment."
If such an audit showed that the election results were incorrect, that could help convince members of Congress to file objections to Arizona's electoral votes, he noted.

U.S. Treasury, Commerce Depts., USG Agenices Hacked Through SolarWinds (Dominion IT Provider) Software Backdoor
The SolarWinds Director sold $45.7 MILLION in stock options before the security hack hit the news
Kreb Security.....hackers believed to be working for Russia have been monitoring internal email traffic at the U.S. Treasury and Commerce departments. Reuters reports the attackers were able to surreptitiously tamper with updates released by SolarWinds for its Orion platform, a suite of network management tools.
In a security advisory, Austin, Texas based SolarWinds acknowledged its systems "experienced a highly sophisticated, manual supply chain attack on SolarWinds Orion Platform software builds for versions 2019.4 HF 5 through 2020.2.1, released between March 2020 and June 2020."
In response to the intrusions at Treasury and Commerce, the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) took the unusual step of issuing an emergency directive ordering all federal agencies to immediately disconnect the affected Orion products from their networks.
"Treat all hosts monitored by the SolarWinds Orion monitoring software as compromised by threat actors and assume that further persistence mechanisms have been deployed," CISA advised.
A blog post by Microsoft says the attackers were able to add malicious code to software updates provided by SolarWinds for Orion users. "This results in the attacker gaining a foothold in the network, which the attacker can use to gain elevated credentials," Microsoft wrote.
From there, the attackers would be able to forge single sign-on tokens that impersonate any of the organization's existing users and accounts, including highly privileged accounts on the network.
"Using highly privileged accounts acquired through the technique above or other means, attackers may add their own credentials to existing application service principals, enabling them to call APIs with the permission assigned to that application," Microsoft explained.
Malicious code added to an Orion software update may have gone undetected by antivirus software and other security tools on host systems thanks in part to guidance from SolarWinds itself. In this support advisory, SolarWinds says its products may not work properly unless their file directories are exempted from antivirus scans and group policy object restrictions.

Connection of SolarWinds Hacking and US Elections Explained

Hacking of SolarWinds and its' possible connection with the US Election
1. What is SolarWinds? It is a leading "IT Management" company. One of their sets of products are
Network Management Suite. These tools help Network Engineers manage and monitor networks. (SolarWinds.com)
2. There are lucky 13 SolarWinds Network Mangement Tools. I will only explain a few of highest interest.
a. Orion - You will hear the words "SolarWinds Orion" was compromised. What is Orion?
It is the keys to the kingdom, the absolute access to everything. SolarWinds has a
centralized global Management and Monitoring software called Orion. Then, you buy
one or more of SolarWind's "plug-in tools", some of which I describe below. You then
install them onto Orion and activate them wth a license key. So in "Orion is
compromised" that means that every single plug-in purchased by SolarWind's client
is compromised.
b. NewFlow Traffic Analyzer - enables a company to collect historical data of global
network traffic. https://www.solarwinds.com/netflow-traffic-analyzer
Historical information is collected for network traffic dating back months or even years.
It will, for instance, save all the traffic that took place on the entire company's
network during November 3rd and 4th between source and destination IP addresses
(different servers between Frankfurt, Barcelona and Atlanta, for instance), time
stamps, amount of data. In simple terms, it stores every conversation of every system
talking to every system over Company's global network.
c. Network Performance Monitor - enables a company to monitor and store "network
performance" https://www.solarwinds.com/network-performance-monitor . This is a
very interesting tool that can also show you historical and anomalies. For instancel,
if there is minimal data on a network between servers, and suddenly, hypothetically
speaking, on November 4th in the middle of the night there is a spike in traffic, it will flag
it as "anomalous unusual" traffic. This also is a historical collector.
d. Other SolarWinds Tools - There are other interesting network management tools. One
tool logs "events" that takes place on every network and security device. This may also
be of interest.
e. Read-Write Tools - note that the above tools are nothing more than collectors of data
They technically do not write to or change the network. Let's call them "passive" tools.
Some SolarWinds tools allow changes to device configurations. Let's call them "active"

Considering the hack itself, meaning the implant of the malware itself, has identified no
actual extraction, or quantification of extracted data... Then why else would the malware
be implanted - except to coordinate some other activity connected to the doorway?
Perhaps this is the apt metaphor....
If you were going to rob a bank (currency = votes), and the robbery was going to
include the deployment of electronic lockpicking (Dominion tabulation machines),
you would want to see what countermeasures the alarm company (CISA)
would/could deploy to identify your effort and/or stop your success.
In that metaphor the hack of SolarWinds is the way into the alarm company.

And now Krebs comes clean...
(https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/12/Chris-Krebs-russia-hack-1.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&w=1236&h=820&crop=1)
Chris Krebs takes blame for massive hack: 'It happened on my watch'
The former head of cybersecurity at the Department of Homeland Security accepted the blame for the hack that infiltrated the computer systems of a number of federal agencies, including the Pentagon, and scores of companies in the private sector.
In a Sunday interview on CNN's "State of the Union," Chris Krebs, the former director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, was asked by host Jake Tapper who was at fault for the breach.
"So, the way I look at it is, yes, it happened on my watch at CISA. And we missed it. A bunch of other folks missed it," he responded.
Krebs, who was fired by President Trump last month for contradicting him over whether there was fraud during the 2020 election, said he didn't become aware of the hack that was launched in March until it became public last week.
"This came out in the public after I was terminated," he said.
But Trump has not blamed Krebs for the attack.
During the interview, Krebs said he trusts the "intelligence community" that Russia was behind the hack, a stand contrary to the president, who has claimed it was China.
"Everything I have heard, whether it's from private-sector cybersecurity threat intelligence experts, things I have heard out of Congress and the intelligence community, it's Russia," Krebs said.
"I mean, they're exceptionally good at this, particularly the foreign intelligence service, the SVR. They're good. They're quiet. They're deliberate. They're patient and they're careful," he continued.

Yeah, I'll take the blame as a distraction...
The thing everyone is missing here, is Krebs just admitted the election was hacked.
Holy crap! :popcorn:

Sounds like a good enough reason....however, it appears he IS admitting there was a hack job

Exactly! That was the point I'd hope most took away from this, was his admittance that the elections had been hacked, leaving open Trump's chances with SCOTUS, again, assuming they have a set of shared balls between them.

I think Trump is going to present all the evidence, including this idiot, before congress before they vote to certify, trying to exhaust every legal means possible before he pulls the pin on that handgrenade. If they do the right thing and certify the Pub electors and he gets his second term I say Crazy Joe puts the case before the SCOTUS.
