So Marc Eliar (I meant that to be an R not an S. Not a typo: Marc EliaR) thinks I need to go to jail because I said that Secretary of Commerce has legal authority and duty UNDER FEDERAL LAW to mandate oversight of voting machines.
(I will turn to Stuart Stevens in a moment)
Marc Eliar falsely accused me of saying
@howardlutnick should “seize the voting machines”. No. I didn’t. I’ve never said that. I don’t think that. I don’t even know what that means in real life.
I said, truthfully the following:
1. The Commerce Secretary has certain authority to act in the election infrastructure arena because our damn voting systems we use in every state in America are manufactured in whole or in part in CHINA- a foreign adversary as so defined in FEDERAL law.
2. Pres Trump invoked the National Emergency Act of 1976 on May 15, 2019 to order the Commerce Dept to promulgate regulations to oversee and mandate protection against vulnerabilities, threats, and risks associated with the use of Information and Communications Technology Services (ICTS) - which includes electronic voting systems. Those are the ICTS regulations.
3. People demanding that
@realDonaldTrump declare a national emergency don’t realize he already did that. The ICTS regulations resulting from that declaration on May 15, 2019 were finalized by the Biden Administration and became law in February 2024.
4. Secretary Lutnick has all the legal authority already he needs to MANDATE to states actions to ensure the electronic voting systems are not accessed or manipulated by bad actors. He has a duty to take those actions.
5. What actions so far?
- Do what the GA State Board of Elections has requested and require installation of the software that closes the 9 vulnerabilities identified by Dr Halderman and CISA in 2022.
- mandate the manual hand count verification of ballots recommended by DHS.
Do you see anything in this that comes anywhere close to suggesting the “seizure” of voting machines? I don’t.
But. Marc Eliar makes his money lying. He’s been sanctioned by at least one court for making false statements to the Court. I will find and post that order.
Marc Eliar hates the idea that some of us are on to the election corruption he has promoted for more than a decade.
Bring it on, Eliar. We are sick of your arrogant disregard of the wishes of the vast majority of Americans who want honest elections that accurately reflect the will of the people.
News flash for Marc Eliar:
We. Are. Not. Stopping.

BANNON: Stuart Stevens and Marc Elias want state AGs to hit Cleta Mitchell, Tina Peters, WarRoom, and everyone in this coalition fighting voter fraud with RICO charges.
Bring it. We’re not stopping. We’re relentless. We’re not going to let you steal any more elections.
