As President Donald Trump’s lawyers lay out in court evidence of vote fraud in the 2020 election, the evidence carrying the least weight is circumstantial.
Circumstantial evidence uses inference rather than personal knowledge or observation, i.e., collateral facts from which the existence or non-existence of some facts may be inferred. Due to the fact it can be fabricated to cast unfair suspicion on the innocent, circumstantial evidence is narrowly considered and must be cogent and compelling to carry weight. An abundance of circumstantial evidence carries more weight than its individual parts.
Other forms of evidence, such as direct and documentary evidence, are important, but circumstantial evidence will also have a role to play. In fact, it may well provide a basis for suggesting the fraud involved in the 2020 election was a collaborative effort. It also enables inference of a timeline of the plot.
In April 2019, when Joe Biden announced his candidacy for president, his comments included a seemingly irrelevant one. Endorsing “Antifa,” he characterized the violent group as “courageous,” a baffling comment while launching a political campaign.
In view of the post-election investigation of Dominion Voting Machines, a circumstantial link may well explain the relevancy.
As Antifa raised its ugly head, a founder of the Faith Education Commerce United, Joe Oltman, infiltrated the group. He heard a conversation involving Antifa members and “Eric from Dominion” in September 2020. In that conversation, Eric encouraged Antifa to “keep up the pressure.” When a member asked, “What are we gonna do if f****** Trump wins,” Oltman said Eric responded: “Don’t worry about the election. Trump’s not gonna win. I made f****** sure of that!”
Oltman researched Dominion to find out who Eric was. He discovered an Eric Coomer joined Dominion as its vice president of U.S. engineering and was later promoted to voting systems officer of strategy and security. He served as a director, as well, although that information was later scrubbed.
Coomer was no casual Antifa acquaintance. In fact, he posted the entire Antifa manifesto on his Facebook page, which included endless disturbing anti-Trump rants. Additionally, he had installed updated software on more than 30,000 Georgia voting machines just before the election.
When criticized for failing to conduct adequate security testing on the software upgrade or obtain certification from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, Coomer responded the change was minor and did not require recertification. (Meanwhile, a Dominion machine involved in Georgia’s third recount effort has crashed, resulting in Dominion personnel rushing to repair it, at best, or remove evidence, at worst.)
Coomer’s outrageous anti-Trump bias should have left him nowhere near those voting machines. But an interesting inference arises: Was Biden’s Antifa endorsement a tacit “quid pro quo,” giving it credibility for what he knew was to come?
Other circumstantial evidence will follow from the testimony of a U.S. Navy veteran and data scientist in Pennsylvania.
“I personally observed USB cards being uploaded to voting machines by the voting machine warehouse supervisor on multiple occasions,” he said. “This person is not being observed, he’s not a part of the process that I can see, and he is walking in with baggies of USBs.”
Despite informing law enforcement staff, nothing was done. The USBs have now disappeared.
The circumstantial evidence is that this Navy veteran, witnessing fraud during the election, would be expected to call the Pennsylvania attorney general. However, the contact number provided by the AG, who is a Democrat, was not for his office but for the Democratic Party headquarters! Further, suggesting inappropriate political party influence, this same AG used his personal Twitter account to declare, a day before the election, there was no way Trump would win the state.
Bloggers immediately criticized the AG. One asked: “On what universe is it acceptable for an AG to put out such a partisan message? Will messaging like this help or hinder the public’s confidence if the integrity of PA voting is questioned?”
In the election’s aftermath, we have our answer.
As if a state AG’s political bias is not enough, a ballot counter in Georgia, where thousands of Trump votes were left uncounted, held his position in violation of election laws. He was – get this – the official campaign photographer for Kamala Harris.
Yet more circumstantial evidence is the involvement, with Dominion and other players, of two anti-Trump billionaires, George Soros and Bill Gates. A link to their affiliation is provided here for readers to make their own assessment.
Circumstantial, too, is the fact that Soros, for the past several years, has contributed millions of dollars to the campaigns of Democratic AGs, positioning them in a number of states to do his ideological bidding. Among them is Pennsylvania’s AG. No wonder Soros “looms large” on Biden’s transition team.
And on election night, as Trump led in all battleground states, five (Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Nevada)Â stopped counting votes for some inexplicable reason, simultaneously. During the next three hours, no votes were counted. When the count continued, Biden shockingly had overcome significant Trump leads in the five states, which all have Democratic governors.
Add to the circumstantial evidentiary list a broken “law of norms.”
Predictions of election outcomes involve analyzing norms. While not foolproof, the more norms established, the more accurate the prediction. But, when an outcome breaks all established norms, either the outcome is unwarranted or norm validity needs to be reassessed.
Biden’s election victory broke five established norms:
- For nearly 150 years, no incumbent president who drew more votes for his reelection than his first election has lost. Trump gained 10 million votes.
- In the last 60 years, presidential elections turned on winning two bellwether states representating America’s melting pot, Ohio and Florida. Trump won both decisively.
- Biden’s support base should have mirrored Hillary Clinton’s in 2016, but he underperformed in every major metro area around the country, except in Democratic-controlled cities where fraud allegedly was rampant.
- Most telling is Trump becomes the only incumbent president in U.S. history to lose reelection while his party gained seats in the House of Representatives.
- Votes tallied by presidential candidates during their primaries are another predictive indicator. No incumbent receiving at least 75% of the total primary vote has lost reelection. Trump received 94% of the primary vote.
Five days after Trump shocked Democrats with his Nov. 8, 2016, election win, the nation’s most radical progressives held an emergency meeting in Washington, D.C., at the Mandarin Hotel, Convened by the Democratic Alliance, the meeting lasted four days. Soros and several well known Democratic Party members participated, forming the “Resistance” – a network of 172 left-wing organizations. Undoubtedly spurred on by the fake Trump-Russia collusion claim, the group’s sole purpose became Trump’s destruction. Can it therefore be inferred their resentment of Trump ran so deep they undertook fraudulent voting to achieve their goal?
Among other evidence that recently has come to light is SEC filings that reveal the firm owning Dominion received $400 million from a Swiss bank with close links to the Chinese government less than a month before the election.
The above circumstantial evidence can only cause one to query a Biden comment made before the election, dismissed as a gaffe. He boasted his team has created “the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.” This is particularly disturbing since historically almost all vote fraud caught by election investigations has involved Democratic politicians.
It is no wonder Biden felt comfortable putting a “lid” on campaigning during the last days before the election, usually a time presidential candidates step up the pace.
Other evidence recently coming to light leaving us with more questions than answers include:
- The recent successful hack of a Dominion machine by a college computer scientist in just seven minutes.
- Reports of a secret order for 5 million absentee ballots being placed in May with a Chinese printing company.
- Dec. 1 testimony, since corroborated, of a truck driver who claims to have driven “thousands of ballots” from New York to Pennsylvania.
Within the next two months, we will know if Trump’s legal battle to reclaim the presidency due to massive vote fraud succeeds. Whether it does or not, the president sworn into office next year will have a mandate, before the 2024 election, to restore American voter confidence in the voting process.
A reelected Trump will do so; a fraudulently elected Biden will not.
