A second voting machine vendor has filed a defamation suit against supporters of former President Donald Trump for claiming that the company was part of an elaborate conspiracy to rig the 2020 presidential election. Florida-based Smartmatic Corp. is filing the suit against Fox News, some of its better-known news employees and two attorneys close to Trump, Sidney Powell and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani. The lawsuit accuses them of executing a coordinated disinformation campaign aimed at convincing the public of rampant election fraud. Essential to the campaign were baseless claims that Smartmatic and its competitor, Dominion Voting Systems Inc., were embroiled in a conspiracy to change enough votes to block Trump’s return to the White House, according to a complaint filed today to the New York State Supreme Court. Smartmatic, which provides voting equipment to Los Angeles County and numerous foreign governments, is seeking $2.7 billion in damages from Fox News, Giuliani, Powell and the Fox News commentators Lou Dobbs, Jeanine Pirro and Maria Bartiromo.
Smartmatic’s suit follows a pair of similar complaints filed by Dominion against Giuliani and Powell, accusing both of spreading bogus claims for self-promotion and a shot at salvaging a second term for Trump. The case against Giuliani alleges he promoted the election fraud conspiracy to hawk gold coins, cigars and supplements on a podcast. Powell is accused of leading the charge against Dominion by claiming foreign agents had infiltrated its voting software. After Smartmatic and Dominion began demanding retractions, several right-leaning TV channels, including Fox News, issued on-air clarifications in late-December, distancing themselves from the election rigging conspiracies they’d help promote.
The three Venezuelan co-founders formed Smartmatic after the 2000 U.S. presidential election to resolve the issue of hanging chads -- a bit of the ballot that isn’t punched out all the way -- by replacing paper ballots with digital alternatives. The conspiracy contrived by Giuliani and Powell claimed that Dominion installed Smartmatic software on its voting machines across the country, and that Smartmatic maintains allegiances to Venezuela’s socialist leaders, including the late former President Hugo Chavez, according to the lawsuit. Smartmatic’s attorneys said they have counted “dozens” of references to what they describe as the smear campaign on Fox News. That these claims were made repeatedly and echoed by the channel’s news staff is evidence that Fox News was actively plotting with Giuliani and Powell to disseminate the conspiracy, said Smartmatic’s attorney J. Erik Connolly. The company maintains that its case is supported by its limited exposure to U.S. elections: Los Angeles County is its only current U.S. client. “That we were only used in one jurisdiction, and weren’t used in any closely contested states makes the disinformation campaign even more egregious and irresponsible,” said Connolly. Smartmatic’s existing and potential clients around the world are getting cold feet because of the bogus claims, and in some cases have described Smartmatic as “toxic,” said Chief Executive Officer Antonio Mugica, who declined to offer examples. Mugica says he’s had to explain the U.S. political crisis and Smartmatic’s role to all of his clients. Even still, he said, the company stands to lose $500 million in contracts and another $190 million in add-on services. The $2.7 billion Smartmatic is seeking is founded on estimates of harm to its “brand, reputation and enterprise value,” according to the complaint.

This will blow up in their faces. The Trump team has mountains of election fraud evidence they can now bring to court. Before they merely ignored the evidence or rejected it based on technicality, now that they’ve fallen into Trumps 4d chess trap and are actually taking him to court, the evidence will finally be bought to light and it will destroy the dems.

Technicalities matter in court. They will condemn or exonerate you, so appreciate them. The question, the obvious one smacking you in the face while tonguing your asshole, is why weren't the motions refiled with the technicalities fixed in order to make their evidence fool-proof?
Connor Ortiz
HA! Civil court is going to kill the propaganda machine for the fascists. Who can't appreciate the fascists getting their tactics used on them?
Charles Myers
There was always going to be a """"technicality"""" for the corrupt courts could use to ignore the evidence and sweep it under the rug. This is why Trumps team baited them into taking them to court. Now the evidence cant be ignored. Major bombs are going to be dropping once the trial starts. The left has fallen into Trumps trap and its delicious knowing how completely unaware of the kind of skullfucking they are in for. You dems actually think youre winning LMAO
Joseph Hall
Before dismissal discovery happens. That is where you present your evidence and make you claim. They have had 60 chances to present evidence and claim fraud but the only evidence they presented was affidavits and no one ever said fraud in a courtroom. This isn't a trap, this is the world cornering them so they have no where else to go. There is a reason even newmax and oann won't even entertain a guest who says anything about election fraud, because they will be taken to court with nothing to defend themselves with.
Jacob Richardson

user, you don't need to use quotation marks that way. It makes you look disingenuous. You gotta ask as to why they've all given up if they have had solid evidence of fraud since they originally claimed it. You gotta ask the questions you don't want to ask in order to get a better ideation.

Zero.
If user is willing to discount the validity of the ENTIRE JUDICIAL SYSTEM - as Lin Wood and the other Qraken lawyers were in that infamous oval office meeting - then there is no legal proceeding to be made.
Why argue before a court you don't trust? You don't. They have ZERO interest in pursuing the full and just legal resolution of the matter. They just want to win. And they don't care what they have to do to do it.
Jan. 6th was not the exception. It's the ideal. There is no rule of law to them. The only rule is 'I AM RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG.'
Ignore them. They're trolling or braindead. Either way, they're not worth your time.
Zachary Anderson

Asher Reyes
Completely coincidental. Stop pointing things out!
Zachary Evans
This. In that meeting, the batshit crazies had Trump convinced he needed to declare martial law, nullify the election and declare himself President-for-Life. It was only Trump's own administration lawyers who prevented it (almost coming to physical blows with Flynn) and the US Military leadership in an unprecedented move issued a letter stating they would not interfere in overturning legal, certified and Constitutional election results. But we were oh so close to disaster.

This shit has parallels to religion at this point. No number of prophecies failing to come true will ever dissuade them from belief in this nonsense. They'll always find a mental workaround, whether it's insisting that the prophecy was misinterpreted or going after the person who came up with it as some sort of secret outsider trying to fuck up their movement.
>No way REAL Republicans are this dumb I hate to disappoint you, but according to the latest polls, a majority of them really are that dumb. Sad really, I remember the days when you could watch a Republican gathering, Convention or speech and while I disagreed with many of their policies there was a great degree of old fashioned, intelligent, rational respectability. And people like William F. Buckley who had weekly televised thought provoking intellectual debates with profound thinkers from the left requiring logic, facts and reason to command the day instead of screaming, yelling, blustering spewing absolute lies and conspracies. They've now become a cult of conspiracy theorists, worshipping a single individual as a Messiah.
I saw an editorial, forgot which one, where the writer who was raised as an Evangelical and is still strongly Christian today, ties in the metamorphosis of the Republican party to it's current state with parallel behaviors of the Christian right. So yeah, your equating it to a religion is accurate, I think.
Owen Cox
Hahaha
Carson Harris

There was no voting fraud in Myanmar. It was a lie used to politically justify the military coup, just like what Trump's been attempting to do here. Thankfully America's democratic institutions are stronger than Myanmar's.
Daniel Moore
By all things considered, he should have succeeded in his coup and murdered his political enemies. But was thwarted by his people's retardation because they needed to be hand held by him.
Isaac Jenkins
> But was thwarted by his people's retardation because they needed to be hand held by him. In their defense, they are new at this whole coup thing. Myanmar has had a lot more practice.
Aiden Wilson
To be fair, it was more point people in the right direction and hope they do the thing you want. Also, ironically, the police not opening fire into the crowds is what probably one of the big reasons the coup failed since the terrorists who weren't part of capture kill teams were just mirroring whatever force was used against them. So if the cops starting shooting, all the terrorists would have pulled their guns out and returned fire, and since Trump completely sabotaged both the number of police, their preparation and kept the military from saving the capitol, it probably would have been a lot more bloody.
Jack King
One claimed evidence of fraud seems substantial: the implausibility of very low "rejection-rates" of mail-in ballots occurring only in the most Democrat/urban districts of swing states. It is apparently normal, in prior years and also in rural and suburban districts in 2020, for about 3% to 15% of mail-in ballots to be rejected for errors (failure to sign or to mark legibly, correctly or lawfully). In 2020, only, urban Democrat districts in swing states reportedly had "rejection rates" of only about 0.5% or lower.
There is no plausible explanation (other than fraud). It is not believable that somehow inner-city Democrat voters were so much more meticulous and accurate in their mail-in voting forms than voters in other parts of those states --- six to 30 times more accurate. (With inner-city districts' lower literacy and education-level on average, if honestly filled-in and collected, the errors and the rejection-rate would likely be higher, not lower.) This mysterious accuracy-gap is virtually a statistical impossibility. Evidently someone other than the voters filled in those mail-in ballots.
Proving this in court would prove that thousands of mail-in votes were fraudulent or otherwise unlawful votes. It's unclear whether the number differences would have been enough to re-elect Trump. This or other genuine fraud would need to switch three or four key states from Biden to Trump. That may have happened, but it hasn't been proven. Except for a conceivable but improbable "Quo Warranto" court action, it's too late now to make any difference.

Nope. Trump won this one, I'm afraid.

Meanwhile, that erstwhile seeker after "truth," Lindell, on the Covid-19 vaccine and his brilliant analysis of socialism, communism and nazis:
>"I think we're going down a communist path, the socialism is coming in here, everybody can look at what happened in Nazi Germany. I mean this is—we're going down—it's happening so fast, when I see and experience the cancelation of people, canceling out people's jobs, they don't exist," he said.
>Lindell went on to claim that the COVID-19 vaccine was the "mark of the beast"—a prophecy mentioned in chapter 13, verse 18 of the biblical Book of Revelations.
>"Now it's this 'One World Order,' this stuff is in Revelations, you know that's what I was talking about, and you combine that with this vaccine, that's 'mark of the beast' stuff," he said. "I mean, this is horrible, keeping us indoors."
The video does not say what you're claiming it does. That woman is pointing out the hypocrisy of McConnel and other Republican officials in supporting extrajudicial lethal force against American-Yemeni Anwar al-Awlaki for allegedly inciting violence and terrorism, yet being unwilling to even convict Trump for doing the same. She isn't saying Trump or his supporters should be killed, she's saying it's ridiculous hypocrisy for McConnel to support an American citizen being executed without due process for allegedly inciting terrorism, but not to support the legal process of conviction against an American citizen who is known to have incited terrorism.
Why do you lie?
Adrian Jackson
there are NSA logs of china messing with the voting machines with the timestamps of the hacks matching the timestamps of the changes that, by itself, is more then enough evidence yet it is the tip of the iceberg
Carter Young
"how does Mitch McConnel, WHO UNDERSTANDS that the way you root out terrorism is to take on, in the case of islamic terrorism, KILL those who incite it..." using the phrase "who understands" says things about the speakers intentions, if she wasn't feeling all murdery she would have used more distancing language like "who said", "he said", or a cringy holding a dead rat by the tail with your fingertips "they said"
Andrew Stewart
That is McConnel's understanding of it, yes.
Anthony Smith
He doesn't have NSA logs you gimp. He and Ghouliani may claim they do, but there's no way in hell they do and you know it.
Joshua Ross
The NSA doesn't "monitor" voting machines and most of the machines aren't on the internet in the first place for China to hack. Whoever told you they did that was lying to you.
James Reyes
The voting machines we know that were online and attempted to be compromised were ones used in Ohio in 2012 where Carl Rove's people installed a back door into them so they could hack the results, Anonymous found the back door and wedged it shut so they couldn't change anything. This is what led to Rove's live meltdown on Fox News where he refused to accept the results because he was expecting his goons to steal the election.

>Fox News hosts say they were just doing their job in pushing voter fraud lies Three Fox News hosts — Maria Bartiromo, Lou Dobbs, and Jeanine Pirro — are seeking the dismissal of claims against them and their employer as part of a $2.7 billion libel lawsuit brought by the voting technology company Smartmatic.
Bartiromo, Dobbs, and Pirro, as well as Donald Trump lawyers Rudolph Giuliani and Sidney Powell, were sued this month for the eye-popping amount by Smartmatic, which accused them of conspiring to spread false claims that the company was involved in an effort to steal the presidential election from Trump.
In its motions, lawyers from Kirkland & Ellis, which is also defending Fox, argue Bartiromo, Dobbs, and Pirro were doing their job in covering the biggest story of the day: unprecedented allegations by Trump that the integrity of the electoral process was marred by fraud.
Smartmatic in its 285-page complaint filed Feb. 4 in state court in New York had cited at least 13 reports on Fox News in which guests or personalities falsely stated or implied that the company had somehow helped steal the election through easily tampered technology or in cahoots with Venezuela's socialist government.
The complaint alleged that the "disinformation campaign" continued even after then-Attorney General William Barr said the Department of Justice could find no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
"Smartmatic is confident in its case and looks forward to briefing these issues for the Court," J. Erik Connolly, attorney for Smartmatic, wrote Friday in a statement.
The lawsuit is being closely watched as the rise of far-right voices on social media and pro-Trump outlets like Newsmax and One America News challenge long-held assumptions about the limits of free speech.
Angel Russell
The filings by the Fox personalities note instances in which they questioned Powell and Giuliani for evidence to back their claims, as well as Smartmatic's own denial of the charges. It also argues that Dobbs' statements appearing to validate the claims of his guests were constitutionally protected opinions, not statements of fact.
"The First Amendment protects the press when it informs the public about judicial proceedings regardless of the accuracy of the underlying allegations," according to the motion filed on behalf of Dobbs.
On Dec. 18, all three hosts aired a segment with an expert debunking some of the claims that had been made on its networks against Smartmatic and another voting technology company, Dominion.
The Fox Business Network dropped Dobbs' show Feb. 5, a day after the lawsuit was filed. The network said the move was part of a planned programming shift and not related to the lawsuit.
Bartiromo in her motion suggests an alternate motive for what she calls Smartmatic's "headline-seeking" lawsuit: an attempt by the company to fill its coffers after reporting losses of $17 million on $144 million in revenue in 2019.
"This complaint is not just meritless; it is a legal shakedown designed to chill speech and punish reporting on issues that cut to the heart of our democracy," her lawyers argue.
Roy Gutterman, a media law professor at Syracuse University, said Fox in its motion made reasonable arguments about First Amendment rights and its duty to fuel public discourse on important political issues.
"Whether the broadcaster is liable for providing a forum for speakers and what responsibility they have for dealing with false factual statements will be central to the court's decision," he said.
Still, he said, if Fox succeeds in persuading the court to dismiss the case, the individual guests — Giuliani and Powell — could still be liable for potentially false and damaging statements.
Nicholas Jones
Smartmatic's participation in the U.S. election was restricted to a single district, Los Angeles County, which votes heavily Democratic.
That limited role notwithstanding, the company and its technology were widely and baselessly blamed by Trump supporters for somehow tilting the race in favor of Joe Biden. The effects of the negative publicity were swift and included death threats against an executive's 14-year-old son, the loss of business, and an enduring stain on its reputation, Smartmatic claims.
Like many conspiracy theories, the alleged campaign against Smartmatic was built on a grain of truth. The company's founder and CEO is Venezuelan, and Smartmatic's initial success is partly attributable to major contracts from the government of Hugo Chávez, an early devotee of electronic voting.
Dobbs, in his motion to join the Fox request for dismissal, points out that he first covered Smartmatic a decade earlier, in 2006, when employed by CNN. At the time the company was facing scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers concerned about its purchase of an American competitor so shortly after it had helped organize elections in Venezuela that were marred by allegations of fraud.

Jason Evans
>Evidence doesn't matter if the courts refuse to hear it on procedural grounds, which is basically all of them. The courts heard their "evidence", especially the courts that were headed by trumps appointed judges. But trump literally had zero evidence of democrat election/voter fraud. Ironically there was plenty of republican election/voter fraud.
Colton Jones
>Not according to Mueller, who stated no one from the campaign ever knowingly or willingly colluded with Russians. Nope. Individuals from Trump's campaign willingly colluded with Russians. What Mueller didn't find was evidence that Trump directly colluded with Russians which makes a fair bit of logical sense considering that Trump runs a very mob like, top-down criminal empire. He had enough lackeys between him and his corruption that they all went to jail instead of him.
>Too bad he was never charged with any such crime, much like collusion. Firstly, "collusion" is not a crime. There is no law on the books prohibiting "collusion". Secondly, you can't charge a sitting President with a crime. How is it you know so little about what you're talking about?
Caleb Perry
>Not according to Mueller, who stated no one from the campaign ever knowingly or willingly colluded with Russians. Mueller said that he couldn't find enough evidence due to the republicans fully committed to obstructing justice, they literally ignored lawful subpoenas right in full view and then there was all the other obstruction. >Too bad he was never charged with any such crime, much like collusion. The republican senators that tried him admitted he commited the crimes, but that they wouldnt charge him anyway. the entire gop abandoned their oath, they abandoned the constitution, they abandoned america in favor of trump and russia.

And Trump giving them top secret information. And the how disgrace that was Helsinki where Trump sided with Putin against the US government.

>And he still lives in your head rent free every day and there's nothing you can do about it :) it's not about being "rent free" ding dong. The trial is going on right now. it's a major talking point for people.

>Which they failed to do No, the senate failed to do it because Trump had a whole political party backing his corruption.
>Oh you mean the ones that met with Fusion GPS the day directly before and after the meeting? The same Fusion GPS who was under contract by HRC and the Dems at the time to compile the Trump Dossier You're actually hilariously incorrect. The RNC is the one who hired to have this opposition research done. When Trump won the GOP nomination the RNC no longer had use for dirt on Trump and Fusion sold it to the DNC instead. This also has nothing to do with the Trump lackeys' cooperation with Russia.
>Everytime you falsely accuse someone who debunks your conspiracy theories as being a Russian Except that this conspiracy theory is clearly illustrated and proven in the Mueller report and back up by over 30 successful indictments for crimes relating to the 2016 election interference. Your cope is both simultaneously delicious and pathetic.
>And he still lives in your head rent free every day and there's nothing you can do about it Says the cultist shill who spends every waking moment of his existence online running defense for a corrupt right wing billionaire establishment politician who tried to kill you with a deadly virus to cover up his incompetence.

>it's not about being "rent free" ding dong. The trial is going on right now. it's a major talking point for people. You're right, people are pissed congress is wasting their time with it while they put off voting on the stimulus check Biden promised.
>No, the senate failed to do it because Trump had a whole political party backing his corruption. Partisan cope excuse.
>Except that this conspiracy theory is clearly illustrated and proven No charges of collusion were ever filled. No one every knowingly or willingly colluded with Russians, per Mueller. Your conspiracy has been repeatedly and thoroughly debunked. Cope.
>Says the cultist shill Projection. Go cry on air about it Maddow. > running defense for a corrupt right wing billionaire establishment politician who tried to kill you with a deadly virus to cover up his incompetence. Andrew Cuomo isn't right wing :)
>You're right, people are pissed congress is wasting their time with it while they put off voting on the stimulus check Biden promised. Republicans are unanimously blocking the stimulus package. Khamila had to go to the senate to put in the tie breaking vote and get the stimulus across moron.
Parker Ward
This, so much for unity.
Colton Bailey
>Khamila had to go to the senate to put in the tie breaking vote and get the stimulus across moron. And yet the Senate is still voting on amendments to add to the bill, which delays it going to POTUS to be signed, you absolute fucking moron buffon faggot retard.
Dems want to waste time playing around with income brackets because they need to pretend to care about income inequality before they buy another vacation home.

With the tariffs on our allies, that saved China while hurting the US, coming to an end, the books must be rebalanced, as the government is no longer going to be able to get extra dough by hampering its processing and assembly industries just enough to make cash, but not enough to make them switch suppliers, and we can only give so many hundreds of billions more to the already subsidized agricultural industry to make up for the resulting retaliation.
But yes, either way, the books will always be kindest to the largest wads of cash, that generate the most cash in turn. The rest is window dressing.
In the end, however, not liable to affect anyone here more than +/-2%, so for most Americans, the change will be all but meaningless, as it almost always is. Just more fanfare to make us cheer for our football teams while keeping each other in check.

>and no evidence is submitted That's a blatant lie and you know it. Evidence was submitted but courts refused to even look at it.
Easton Cox
>And yet the Senate is still voting on amendments to add to the bill, Blame the Republicans for that one.
Bentley Edwards
not only that it is hard evidence, hacking logs that include time, ip's of computers involved, method of attack, and how votes were changed by each attack, also hard surveillance video evidence. the sworn statements from witnesses are just icing, not the whole of the case a the left would have you believe
Connor Nguyen
Nope, nope, nope. DOJ, FBI and DHS cybersecutity have stated there were no vote flipping done in the machines. As well as State election officials and multiple audits, recounts, etc. comparing hard copy ballots verified by the voter printed out at the time they placed the vote show that did not happen. The video surveillance you referred to is rightwing magat cultists selectively editing tapes (essentially deep fakes) that when the unedited tape is shown thoroughly debunks the Big Lie. Why do you keep going on about it? The only people still claiming it are the utter batshit crazies like MyPillowguy who even the Trump mouthpieces of Sauron Newsmax and OAN run 2 minute disclaimers on anything he spews?
Eli Ross
Most if not all of these cases will be settled out of court, so the cope will remain in pristine condition.
Brayden Morales
Fuck off schizos. Your thoughts are not real life.

Lucas White
depends on the set up, a lot of "paper" ballots were scanned into machines, which then sent the data to local servers, which then uploaded the data to Scytl. since the machines were all connected to the net any of them could have been hacked an any point. that doesn't even get into old fashion fake ballot dumps or having a counter count a set of biden ballots multiple times. that more people voted then were registered to vote proves the last two, for which there is video evidence besides
Jordan Martin
Sounds like you holdin' da Quaken man! Get it to Qaren, Ghouliani or Mypillowguy quick! Q blesses you!

election security people and voting machine company security insiders already leaked the highly detailed computer logs to my pillow guy. you either haven't bothered to watch his vid or you are a shill
