Lindell’s hired team can’t verify China hacked – Update

Update at the end

ORIGINAL WASHINGTON TIMES STORY

The Washington Times reports the cyber expert on the “red team” hired by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell now says the key data underpinning the theory that China hacked the 2020 election unveiled at the Cyber Symposium is illegitimate.

Mr. Lindell said he had 37 terabytes of “irrefutable” evidence that hackers, who he said were backed by China, broke into election systems and switched votes in favor of President Biden.

The proof, he said, is visible in intercepted network data or “packet captures” that were collected by hackers and could be unencrypted to reveal that a cyberattack occurred and that votes were switched.

Josh Merritt is an expert on the cyber team hired by Mr. Lindell to examine the data for the symposium. Unfortunately, he told The Washington Times that packet captures are unrecoverable in the data and that the data, as provided, cannot prove a cyber incursion by China.

On the second day of the symposium, Mr. Merritt said the team can’t say it is “legitimate if we don’t have confidence in the information.”

Mr. Lindell delayed a scheduled unveiling of his evidence on Wednesday at the symposium.

He had offered $5 million to any in-person attendee who can disprove his claims. The offer is no longer on the table, Mr. Merritt said.

The Sentinel always said we believe there was corruption in the election. The changes before the election helped Biden win. The corruption was in the state laws altered, often illegally, before the election to favor Joe Biden. The mail-in balloting, ballot harvesting, unsecured drop boxes everywhere, and similar activities are notoriously unreliable. You can’t prove that after an election.

UPDATE

We reported about this article the day before yesterday because we thought The Washington Times was more accurate than most of the MSM. Turns out we shouldn’t have trusted them. They made major errors and called the acknowledgment of those errors a ‘CORRECTION.’

It seems that Mr. Lindell’s lawyer did not confirm Mr. Merritt was the source of the statement that the data showing the election was manipulated by the Chinese Communists could not be verified. Also, Mr. Merritt isn’t on Mr. Lindell’s team. And Mr. Lindell did not withdraw the $5 million award for anyone who can disprove his evidence.

The key points of the article were in those three issues that were wrong but admittedly corrected quickly. But not before it traveled through the Internet.

That doesn’t mean we think he proved it or didn’t. You decide. Symposium Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3.
