She Won, Part II: Seven Judges. Direct-to-Cell Satellites. A Hijacked Election.

Last edited Thu Jun 19, 2025, 09:24 AM - Edit history (1)

How the Federalist Society’s judicial pipeline and a new network of 265 low-Earth orbit DTC satellites (Musk’s*)cleared the runway for Trump’s return to power.

We’ve already broken down the digital and satellite infrastructure. Now, we’re stepping inside the courtrooms—and following the judges—who strategically removed all accountability hurdles between Trump and the White House.

Snip

The term “nuclear option” sounds dramatic, but what unfolded was exactly that: a procedural detonation that reshaped the U.S. judiciary—and cleared the runway for Donald Trump’s legal invincibility. In 2017, Mitch McConnell pulled the nuclear trigger for Supreme Court confirmations. Facing a filibuster on Trump’s nomination of Neil Gorsuch, McConnell changed the rules to force him through with just 51 votes.


• 3 Supreme Court justices: Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett
• Over 200 lower court judges, all fast-tracked under the new simple-majority rules

Snip

Just seven days after Trump lost the 2020 election to President Joe Biden, the Senate rammed through Judge Aileen Cannon—a Federalist Society loyalist—to the federal bench, again via the nuclear option. The seat? It would later oversee Trump’s classified documents case.

Think about that. Before he even walked out of the White House with stolen materials and a failed insurrection attempt, Donald Trump had already secured the judge who would protect him. He wasn't just breaking the law—he was fortifying his legal escape route in advance, with an assist from Senate Republicans.

Snip

Trump’s allies—under the guise of investigating voter fraud—illegally breached election equipment in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, and Colorado. What should have been a five-alarm fire in American democracy was instead buried beneath strategic delays, bureaucratic filings, and a crowded judicial calendar.

people are now attacking Kamala.

I posted statistics about all of the anomalies that occurred only in the battleground states. The same day votes surged for Krasnov only in those states, they did not do that in any other state.

The odds that Kamala did not flip one red district to blue were unbelievable, it never happens.

It pisses me off also when especially Democrats analyze what Kamala and Walz did wrong, they did nothing wrong, they won the election.

to conduct investigations, not 8 months after the fact!
This happened with Gore. The truth came out but Bush was sworn in,
and they will never undo a 'swearing in', even with a lying, treasonous criminal.

If people were able to rig all the local voting machines, do you think they would only shift .5% of the vote and hope that was enough or would they be smart enough to code it so their side won regardless of the vote?

The conspiracy theories just keep going and everything is claimed as evidence.

close elections have always been the easiest to rig. When the gap is too wide prior to voting, as it was with Kamala, it's questionable from day 1. I don't think any of the elections Republicans have stolen have been all that close. They know where they need votes. The ability to hack into elections offices as they did that summer had to be a big assist in many ways.

Even if the vote is rigged and the outcome is predetermined, there still is plenty of reason for Democrats to get out and vote. That reason is: If they're going to cheat to "win" elections, then at least, we ought to MAKE them cheat. We need to keep on MAKING them HAVE to do it. If we don't even MAKE them do it, THAT'S when they've REALLY won. Think about it.

Thu Jun 19, 2025, 10:15 AM
Jun 2025

For anyone who is not on Tik Tol, people have been talking about this issue since the day after the election. A guy was on the Joe Rogan podcast and stated Musk had an app that said El Taco won even before the polls were closed ON THE EAST COAST. People claimed their votes were not counted. In NC, the people voted in all blue candidates except for an election official of some kind but all those people voted red for the president. An example, experts looked over the voting data and said there were problems. Now a county in New York State is going to court to dispute voting results. Some are saying PA had irregularities. But of course, you don't hear anything on msm about it.
Remember before the election, he said him & Johnson had a plan. Then the orange idiot told people he doesn't need their vote.

A pipeline of judges, well-fed,
By FedSoc and Mitch at the head.
With satellites high, and courts standing by,
Trump paved his escape path ahead.
Justice bent while democracy bled.

With judges pre-picked and well-groomed,
And satellites quietly zoomed,
The runway was clear,
For Donnie, no fear—
His courtroom escape plan was plumed.

The judges were placed with great care,
While satellites watched from the air.
The law was undone,
Before ballots were run—
A coup wrapped in judicial flair.
