Four Men Charged in Philippine Bribery and Money Laundering Scheme

President of Smartmatic is among four indicted today by federal grand jury for bribery and fraud related to electronic voting systems. DOJ names Roger Alejandro Piñate Martinez in the news release, but does not identify him as president of Smartmatic.

A federal grand jury in the Southern District of Florida returned an indictment today charging three executives of an election voting machine and service provider company and a former Chairman of the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) of the Republic of the Philippines for their roles in an alleged bribery and money laundering scheme to retain and obtain business related to the 2016 Philippine elections.

According to the indictment, between 2015 and 2018, Roger Alejandro Pinate Martinez, 49, a Venezuelan citizen and resident of Boca Raton, Florida, and Jorge Miguel Vasquez, 62, a U.S. citizen and resident of Davie, Florida, together with others, allegedly caused at least $1 million in bribes to be paid to Juan Andres Donato Bautista, 60, the former Chairman of COMELEC. These bribes were allegedly paid to obtain and retain business related to providing voting machines and election services for the 2016 Philippine elections and to secure payments on the contracts, including the release of value added tax payments.

The co-conspirators allegedly funded the bribes through a slush fund that was created by over-invoicing the cost per voting machine for the 2016 Philippine elections. To conceal and disguise the nature and purpose of the corrupt payments, the co-conspirators used coded language to refer to the slush fund and caused the creation of fraudulent contracts and sham loan agreements to justify transfers. The co-conspirators then allegedly laundered funds related to the bribery scheme through bank accounts located in Asia, Europe, and the United States, including in the Southern District of Florida.

🚜 🇺🇸 This Is BIG: Eat More Cheeseburgers Save the Planet

“I'm not making it up. The University of Nebraska just got a got done with one of their studies that the way to save the world on carbon is raise more cows. K. And that's because cows are carbon negative. They produce more oxygen than they put off methane and carbon. It means to eat more cheese burgers or steaks. Beef, to save the world.”

Armed Muslims yet again.

So, it's only race through the courts and instantly to jail rioting if it's white people then?

🇬🇧 Less than a month ago, Keir Starmer started an "early release scheme", emptying prisons as the system was about to "collapse" as Europe's most incarcerated country was fit to burst.

Today they're jailing people for social media posts and releasing footage of the sentences.

🇺🇸 🇷🇺 The U.S. Government Has No Hint of Independence Left, They Do Not Express Their Thoughts, But Read According to a Prepared Script

🗣 American economist and professor Jeffrey Sachs, commenting on a video where American senior officials declare that

Russia has already lost,

stated that they all use exactly the same words because they're all reading from literally a script:

Not everyone in the world would have used the word "unprovoked" to describe the provoked special military operation by Russia, but that was the script. These people are not thinking. They are reading. That's all. They're not thinking. They're not arguing. They're reading.

🇬🇧 They're planning to drag you off the streets of the UK and imprison you instantly for even "looking at riots".

As Keir Starmer installs these dystopian measures, the legacy media and far left cheer on.
