Bijan Kian’s Legal Team Seeks Classified Flynn Communications
By: Adam Carter
Judge Trenga's ruling creates a dilemma for the DOJ, one of which relates to classifies intercepts the US government claims to have between @RealGenFlynn and @EkimAlptekin that Kian was not a party in. On the eve of the trial, the government gave Kian's legal team a one sentence summary stating,
"The United States government is in possession of multiple independent pieces of information relating to the Turkish government’s efforts to influence United States policy on Turkey and Fethullah Gulen, including information relating to communications, interactions, and a relationship between Ekim Alptekin and Michael Flynn and Ekim Alptekin’s engagement of Michael Flynn because of Michael Flynn’s relationship with an ongoing presidential campaign without any reference to the defendant or FIG."
Kian's defense entered the summary into evidence as Defense Exhibit 66 or “DX66” believing the statement was exculpatory as it showed Kian was not a party to an alleged conspiracy to violate FARA. However, the government used the statement in its rebuttal in closing arguments after Kian's defense could not respond to implicate Kian by association.
"What about Mr. Flynn’s mysterious relationship with Alptekin that you heard about this morning that is now in evidence as Defense Exhibit 66? It’s only a sentence long, but you really ought to have a look at it ... and here’s the killer ... without any reference to the defendant or the Flynn Intel Group.
Read that carefully. It makes your head spin. We’ve got lots of secrets, lots of bits of information about Alptekin and Flynn and what they were doing, but we’re not going to tell you. We’ve got them, but we’re not going to tell them. We don’t want you to know. We’re a nation that values transparency. Perhaps. I hope we do. In this case, not so much."

@EkimAlptekin would go on in the Oct 2021 D2L interview, as he did when asked for comment by TWP when we first reported the story, to again forcefully deny there is anything of value in the DX66 intercepts.
Ekim Alptekin: They have no good reason to keep this classified. And I’m pretty certain that if this so-call “classified evidence” would prove their case, it would long be declassified already
Tracy Beanz: Yeah, they’d be traipsing that out all over. CNN would have it. [The Washington Post].

Brave Search and Presearch Say They Don’t Censor Search Results | Freedom First Network
After DuckDuckGo announced that it would be abandoning its years-long commitment to “unbiased” search results by down-ranking “Russian disinformation,” two alternative search engines, Brave Search and Presearch, have committed to not censoring their search results.
Brendan Eich, the CEO of Brave Software (the company behind the privacy-focused Brave browser, Brave Search, and other products), told journalist and producer Naomi Brockwell that Brave Search doesn’t censor its results and detailed how Brave Search is expanding its own search index.
Currently, over 90% of Brave Search’s queries are provided by its independent search index which was built from scratch. Eich noted that Brave Search currently relies on Bing for the less than 10% of queries where it doesn’t have good results and acknowledged that this fallback “could be censored.” But “we’ll get to full independence,” Eich added.
Presearch, a private, decentralized, blockchain-powered search engine, also tweeted that it “doesn’t censor.”
“That’s the power of decentralized, unbiased search. The need for decentralized, unbiased search will only grow from here,” Presearch added.
As Presearch notes in its tweets, its search indexes are built and hosted by a decentralized network of node operators. It’s also open-source which means users can contribute code that’s shown its search results pages.
@ElectionFraud20_org posted on Telegram that Yandex.com is a third high quality search engine option that does not censor (see post below).

Thank you DuckDuckGo... for helping us find Yandex.com
Some of you may be aware that DuckDuckGo is now censoring their search results because they are worried people are not smart enough to make up their own minds...
It didn't take long for us to stumble over an excellent Substack article comparing various search engines and Yandex.com clearly comes up on top.
We searched for terms such as:
- Election Fraud
- Seth Keshel
- Election Trend Analysis
- Election Analysis
And ElectionFraud20.org ends up either in first place or on the first page!!
Do you get the same results? Let us know in the comments.
Try doing the same in Google... 🥴
Needless to say Yandex.com has now become our favorite search engine 😊.
(Full disclosure, we found out it is developed in Russia. Which isn't a problem for us, but may be for others. Use discernment and don't rely on a single search engine.)

We actually need a better solution than traditional search engines. Crowd sourcing good information, categorizing, rating, summarizing and curating it could be a lot more useful in the future if it is done right.
When we are not working on election fraud, we think about knowledge management systems. 😁
Building a bot on top of Telegram, or adding a few new simple features to Telegram would turn it into a seriously outstanding research tool. (@durov)

Summary of The Significance of Trenga's Ruling In The Trial of Bijan Kian
- Most are aware of the saga of the Mueller SCO trial of @RealGenFlynn in the DC Circuit in front of Judge Emmet Sullivan on charges of lying to the FBI, but few are aware of the FARA case in the Eastern District of Virginia (EDVA).
- Gen. Flynn no longer faces any direct legal risk in the case, only because Pres. Trump was forced to include both the DC and EDVA cases in Flynn's Full Pardon of Innocence to put an end to the Mueller-related persecution.
- Make no mistake however, the FARA case in the EDVA was the primary means used to target Gen. Flynn, and used to blackmail him into a plea agreement by threatening to indict his son Mike Flynn Jr in this case.
- Mueller only "Jen Psaki-ed back" to the Logan Act related charges in DC after finding it was unlikely to secure a conviction in the EDVA after almost a year-long investigation.

DOJ Continues Persecution of The Flynn Intel Group
By: Adam Carter
The Biden DOJ now is faced with a dilemma in the trial of Bijan Kian. They really have 3 choices:
1. Simply refuse to retry Bijan Kian and drop the case
- Common sense would say to cut your losses and not risk another trial that could prove very embarrassing for the DOJ and the Biden administration.
2. Retry Kian and risk further exposing corruption by the Mueller SCO and direct interference in the case by Biden and his family
- Kian's original trial took place in Jul 2019, long before the fiasco the Flynn trial turned into throughout 2020. Kian's defense would likely be much more robust given all the information that's come out in the nearly 2 years since. A 2nd trial with a clean slate of evidence and witness testimony would be risky to say the least, but common sense doesn't seem to be all that common in the DOJ run by AG Merrick Garland.
3. Once again appeal Trenga's ruling to the 4th Circuit
- The DOJ has already managed to get 5 separate rulings by the judge who oversaw the trial overturned on appeal. It stands to reason they would want to try the same course once again. DOJ may even attempt to have Trenga removed from the case via a writ of mandamus claiming he failed to follow the 4th Circuit's instructions from the last appellate ruling. This seems to be the most likely next step for the DOJ because it could potentially reinstate the verdicts without the need to retry the case, but they might not luck out this time around and draw two Obama appointed judges on the three judge panel.

New Peer-Reviewed Research Finds Evidence of at Least 220K Excess Biden Votes in 6 Key Swing States | Real Clear Politics
A new study by John R. Lott in the peer-reviewed economics journal Public Choice finds evidence of at least 255,000 excess votes (possibly as many as 368,000) for Joe Biden in six swing states where Donald Trump lodged accusations of fraud. Biden only carried these states – Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin – by a total of 313,253 votes. Excluding Michigan, the gap was 159,065.
Lott notes that while some judges have agreed that irregularities occurred in 2020, they were unwilling to grant discovery in the absence of evidence that fraud could reverse the election results. Republicans thus faced a Catch-22 situation.
Recounts haven’t been useful in resolving fraud concerns, as they merely involve recounting the same potentially fraudulent ballots.
Signature verification is far from perfect, and amidst unprecedented numbers of mail-in ballots in the 2020 election, many states didn’t even try to verify signatures. If someone mailed in multiple ballots, there was virtually no way to catch them. And without tamper-resistant photo IDs, fraud is difficult to prove.
Lott’s research provides three tests of vote fraud:
1) First, he compared precincts in a county with alleged fraud to adjacent, similar precincts in neighboring counties with no fraud allegations. Precincts tend to be small, homogeneous areas, and many consist of fewer than a thousand registered voters.
We can try to detect absentee or mail-in ballot fraud by comparing the results in bordering precincts that happen to fall on opposite sides of a county line. These precincts will tend to be virtually identical to each other – voters may simply be on the other side of the street from their precinct neighbors.
In 2016, there was no unexplained gap in absentee ballot counts. But 2020 was a different story. Just in Fulton County, Georgia, Lott’s test yielded an unexplained 17,000 votes – 32% more than Biden’s margin over Trump in the entire state.
With the focus on winning the state, there is no apparent reason why Democrats would get out the absentee ballot vote more in one precinct than in a neighboring precinct with similar political and demographic characteristics.
2) Next Lott applied the same method to provisional ballots in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Contrary to state law, voters were allegedly allowed to correct defects in absentee ballots by submitting provisional ballots on Election Day. His analysis found that such permissions in Allegheny County alone contributed to a statistically significant 6,700 additional votes for Biden – in a state decided by fewer than 81,000 votes.
3) Finally, artificially large voter turnouts can also be a sign of vote fraud. This fraud could come in the form of filling out absentee ballots for people who didn’t vote, voting by ineligible people, or bribing people for their votes.
Republican-leaning swing state counties had higher turnouts relative to the 2016 election. Democratic-leaning counties had lower turnouts, except for the Democratic counties with alleged vote fraud, which had very high turnouts.
Lott believes his estimates likely understate the true amount of cheating in these states as he did not attempt to ascertain possible in-person voting fraud. There are numerous allegations of ineligible in-person voters in Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. For example, in Fulton County, Georgia, 2,423 voters were not listed as registered on the state’s records, and 2,560 felons voted even though they had not completed their sentences.
Compared to Europe and other developed countries, America is unique in its lax approach to vote fraud. When all demographic and political groups in the U.S. support voter photo IDs and even 46% of Democrats believe that mail-in voting leads to cheating, ignoring Americans’ concerns won’t make the problem go away.
