Hello cypherpunks,
Today the BradBlog, run for
two decades and counting by journalist Brad Friedman -- of the
syndicated United States FM radio show, the BradCast -- published
my new in-depth investigative article regarding rural,
Republican-leaning Coffee County down south in the swing state of
Georgia, and then interviewed me for his radio show. Here's the
title, subtitle, and hyperlink for the article component:
subtitled Cracks
emerge in wall of secrecy surrounding mysterious County meeting
in small town conspiracy with national implications...
You might want to read
this. I dug into scores of federal court documents to turn a
sprawling story into a highly readable narrative of a little over
3500 words. As you probably know, Georgia is a battleground state.
Less known, top Trumpers -- Sidney Powell et al. -- have been
executing a multistate scheme to breach county elections offices
and swipe software for computerized voting, presumably for
hacks/rigs and/or sprinkling into their disinformation campaigns
for added (pseudo-)plausibility.
Georgia's Secretary of
State, who's the elections head for Georgia, recently told a
federal judge that his office will not apply Homeland
Security CISA-recommended security patches related to the breach
until after the 2024 general elections. Unfortunately for
the conspirators, the rural county officials in question are not
exactly skilled at evading Georgia public meetings transparency
law, and that's where your trustily thorough, info-dense Douglas
Lucas is holding them to account, though it likely will require
more pushing, such as litigation to force the county boards to
obey the open meetings laws.
Earlier today for the
associated FM radio spot, I recorded my part from West Seattle.
Today's Bradcast show, 58 minutes in length, is downloadable in
full as an .MP3 below. The Coffee County intro segment with me --
some 4 minutes total in length -- begins at 02:24, ends at 06:48,
and the main Coffee County portion with me -- some 41 minutes
total in length -- begins at 16:57, concludes at 57:07. Or if you
really want to jump straight to my part of the main part (which is
about 20 minutes in legnth) without the preceding summary of my
article, jump straight to 37:00 and continue to 57:07.
Thanks for your time,
consideration, and informed effort to improve things,
Douglas
