Baseless claims that voting machines made by Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic are being used to rig voting in Brazil are circulating online and in far-right media in the U.S. — even though neither company's hardware or software is being used in the current election there.

Same false claims about Biden's Computer and Trump's "Russian Collusion"? I do NOT see WHO verified that the machines are accurate and have NOT been tampered with. I am NOT saying it is true but hate when people make their minds up BEFORE investigation. Sounds too much like the DNC owned/operated FBI.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Let's see:
Attacked all the Republicans that the DNC denounced. Gave Hillary and Biden's son a pass on investigation.
Agents vocal about ensuring that Trump be prosecuted without evidence (i.e.: Russian Collusion that was partly SPONSORED by the FBI.)
I will also guess, based on your response, that the 2000 mules and the people prosecuted for election fraud (not just charged) are just figments of some ones imagination vice proof.

Capt Gregory Prickett - So, you are saying that Manafort said he fed someone information about "Poling Data" and that is proof of Collusion? Really Sir?
I assume that you are denying that the FBI gave Hillary a free ride for her testimony BEFORE they interviewed her? That she did NOT plead the 5th or state she "did not remember" when asked the questions?
Are you also denying that two agents of the FBI sent text messages indicating that they could make sure Trump was NOT re-elected? Those agents were allowed to resign/retire without charges.
From Statement of Michael E. Horowitz, Inspector General, U.S. Department of Justice before the U.S. House of Representatives Committees on Oversight and Government Reform and the Judiciary concerning “Oversight of the FBI and DOJ Actions in Advance of the 2016 Election” (https://oig.justice.gov/node/640)
Conversely, we found that the FBI’s explanations for its failure to take immediate action after discovering the Weiner laptop in October 2016 to be unpersuasive, and we did not have confidence that the decision of Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok to prioritize the Russia investigation over following up on the Weiner laptop was free from bias.
We also found that, in key moments, then FBI Director James Comey clearly departed from FBI and Department norms, and his decisions negatively impacted the perception of the FBI and the Department as fair administrators of justice.
Director Comey concealed from the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General his intention to make a unilateral announcement in July about the reasons for his recommendation not to prosecute former Secretary Clinton. His July 5 statement included inappropriate commentary about uncharged conduct, announced his views on what a “reasonable prosecutor” would do, and served to confuse rather than clarify public understanding of his recommendation. In late October, he again acted without adequately consulting Department leadership – and contrary to important Department norms – when he sent a letter to Congress announcing renewed investigative activity days before the election.
It is harder to find MSM reporting anything on the Democrat side that is derogatory while there are LOTS of articles, many with bold faced lies and innuendos that were later retracted, about the Republican party and Trump himself.
If you would like more sir, with all due respect, do your own research.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Sorry the link doesn't work. I copied it from the DOJ website. Also, who is going to PAY to read the BS you put up? It is a PAY site.

You can try these sites:

https://oig.justice.gov/node/640
https://oig.justice.gov/sites/default/files/reports/21-104.pdf
I had copied a few links and found that the DOJ does NOT refer to the files from the same links so I double checked each one that I have listed.
