Is FBI Concealing Chinese Infiltration of US Election Software?
Konnech is an election company based in Michigan that provides software to manage the poll workers, poll locations, campaigns, assets and the supplies needed to run elections in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
In January 2021, Catherine and Gregg's team discovered an "oddity in some of the URLs" such as vote4la.com, vote4detroit.com, and vote4boston.com that Konnech's "PollChief" software application used to gather personally-identifying information about poll workers.
Using Binary Edge, a software tool to identify cyber breaches, they investigated where these URLs were resolving to and they found that most of them resolved to a single IP address in China and that the application, itself resides in China. Furthermore, the database that stored the personally-identifying information of over a million American election workers had been left open.
Rightly seeing that this was a national security risk, they took this information to the FBI, who opened-up a counter-intelligence operation around February of 2021.
Gregg says the two played an active role in the FBI’s operation and communicated regularly with the agents, who told them that Konnech had already been flagged as having "lots of other problems", including "banking issues" and problems with the company’s overseas operations in Australia and Canada.
Then, in April 2022, Catherine received a call from one of the FBI agents, who informed her that the FBI's "Washington DC headquarters" was now involved in the investigation and suddenly, everything changed after this call.
"There was no more goodwill, there was no more let's work together, the script had been flipped, and now we were the target," she said. "That was a very disturbing call."
The agent they'd been dealing with informed her that two women at FBI HQ were now intent on criminalizing Catherine and Gregg for their discovery, using open-source intelligence that Konnech is a CCP operation working with the full approval of the Federal Government.
White House Visitor Logs Reveal Meetings Between Hunter Biden Business Partner and Joe Biden
By Nick Ciolino | April 26, 2022
The White House is so far not commenting on reports that a close business associate of President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, made several visits to the White House while the elder Biden was serving as vice president during the Obama administration.
Eric Schwerin, the former president of Hunter Biden’s now-dissolved investment firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, visited the White House at least 19 times from 2009 to 2015, according to White House visitor log records reviewed by The Epoch Times and first reported by the New York Post.
The logs show that Schwerin met directly with then-Vice President Joe Biden in the West Wing on Nov. 17, 2010. And Schwerin also had several meetings with White House aides during times when Hunter Biden was securing multi-billion dollar deals overseas, including in China.
The meetings call into question claims made by Joe Biden that he was not involved in Hunter’s business affairs.
“I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” Joe Biden said in 2019.
When asked by a reporter Monday why Schwerin had access to the vice president and what the meetings were about, White House press secretary Jen Psaki did not offer any details.
“I don’t have any information on that,” said Psaki. “I’m happy to check and see if we have any more comment.”
Schwerin’s involvement in the personal and professional lives of the Biden family was first revealed by the Post citing emails from a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden at a Delaware computer repair store in April 2019.
The Post’s initial reporting on the laptop during the 2020 election detailed how Hunter used his father’s political power as leverage in overseas business dealings. The article was banned for a time by Facebook and Twitter, labelled as “unsubstantiated” by other news outlets and as “Russian disinformation” by intelligence agents and members of the Biden campaign.
The New York Times published a report last month, more than a year after the fact, claiming to authenticate the emails from the laptop by citing anonymous sources.
The White House has refused to comment on the laptop in the wake of The New York Times article.
Republicans in Congress are renewing promises to investigate Hunter Biden with the latest revelations about Schwerin’s access to the White House.

For the past two weeks, former Steve Bannon War Room co-host Jack Maxey has been hiding in Zurich, where he told the Daily Mail he's been working with IT experts to dig more data from Hunter's 'laptop from hell,' and that he'll post it all online in a searchable database in the coming weeks.

CIA Officer Who Signed Hunter Biden Laptop Letter Claims Credit for Trump Loss
By Zachary Stieber March 29, 2022
One of the former CIA officers who signed a letter claiming stories about a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden were disinformation says he helped swing the 2020 election from former President Donald Trump.
“I take special pride in personally swinging the election away from Trump,” John Sipher, who served for decades as a senior operations officer at the CIA, wrote in a recent post on Twitter.
“I lost the election for Trump? Well then I fell [sic] pretty good about my influence,” he also wrote.
Sipher and 50 other former U.S. intelligence officials signed the letter on Oct. 19, 2020, alleging that the effort to distribute its contents “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation,” despite not knowing whether the laptop was legitimate.
The letter was the core of a story from Politico that claimed the New York Post story on the laptop was “Russian disinformation.”
Richard Grenell won the Twitter feud against John Sipher for signing the letter that wrongly discredited the laptop as Russian disinformation.
The former head of US intelligence blasted one of the officials who signed the letter casting doubt on Hunter Biden’s laptop — calling him a lying “phony” and igniting a Twitter war over the weekend.
The spat erupted Saturday when Richard Grenell, the former Trump-appointed acting director of national intelligence, reacted to a post from John Sipher, who retired from the CIA in 2014, about ethical behavior among public servants.
“Didn’t @john_sipher sign a letter 3 weeks before the 2020 elections saying don’t look at Hunter Biden’s laptop because it’s Russian disinformation?” Grenell tweeted Saturday. “Now he’s lecturing people about ethical behavior?! These people have no shame….”
The letter was signed by 51 former intelligence officials, including Sipher, and released after the New York Post revealed the existence of the laptop, which Biden left at a Delaware computer repair shop, in October 2020.
It contained a trove of emails about Biden’s business dealings in China and Ukraine that implicated his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden.
John Sipher was one the of signatories who then refused to respond to The Post when asked if apology would be issued about the existence of Biden’s laptop.
The exchange between Sipher and Grenell appeared to be prompted by a tweet that called for Republicans — if they take control of Congress this year — to revoke the security clearance of all former intelligence community members who signed the Biden letter.
The heated back-and-forth bled into Sunday when Grenell admonished Sipher for signing the letter that wrongly suggested the laptop was related to Russian disinformation. Sipher was among the dozens of signatories who then refused to respond to The Post when asked whether they would apologize now that the New York Times confirmed the existence of the laptop.
”You signed the letter and then refused to respond to the @nypost. So stop the name calling and answer – is Hunter Biden’s laptop Russian disinformation?” Grenell posted.
Suppression of Hunter Biden emails ‘all about getting rid of Donald Trump’
New York Post columnist Miranda Devine says she’s “glad” New York Times readers now know the “truth” about Hunter Biden’s emails 17 months after they made the news.
Ms Devine told Sky News Australia the suppression of the story in 2020 was “all about getting rid of Donald Trump” and “rescuing Joe Biden from the consequences of his own corruption” through four decades as a senator and eight years as a vice president.
Her remarks come after the times said a “deep dive” into Hunter’s emails found they were “authentic”.
She said the most egregious element of the response to the original story in 2020 was the intelligence officials who undermined the authenticity of the emails.
“They claimed that the laptop, the information that we had published, had all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation,” she said.
“That was enough to get Joe Biden off the hook.
“Those 51 intelligence officials are largely to blame and so that’s why we went to each one of them and we asked them if they now had an apology, wanted to rescind their claims that the laptop was Russian disinformation.
“Not one of them apologised.
“A few of them did respond but … they just doubled down, they said they were right.”

"Crucially, in light of the many implications from the validation of Hunter Biden’s emails and Joe Biden’s now-proven entanglements with Ukraine, how can he, as president of the United States, be entrusted to make foreign policy decisions regarding the Ukraine-Russia conflict?"
The Foreign Policy Ramifications of Hunter’s Emails
Jeff Carlson & Hans Mahncke | March 18, 2022
On April 12, 2019, Hunter Biden took his damaged laptop to a computer repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware. It was the beginning of a series of fateful events that would culminate in the New York Times finally admitting on March 17, 2022, that Biden’s laptop and its contents were real.
Previous reporting by the New York Post detailed emails that were found on Hunter Biden’s laptop that showed that then-presidential candidate Joe Biden, his brother James, and son Hunter Biden were all deeply entangled in various overseas business ventures, including Qatar, Ukraine, Russia, and China.
The emails also showed that Hunter Biden was directed by the head of a Ukrainian energy company’s board to find a way to stop the investigation into the company. While the authenticity of his laptop had been confirmed earlier, it unfortunately took verification by The New York Times to allow the story to enter the mainstream. (That is three years of coverup-WW)
The intentionally delayed admission from the corporate media that Biden’s laptop is real raises many material questions, including those surrounding President Joe Biden’s fitness for office and his ability to direct our foreign policy, particularly in relation to the Ukraine-Russia conflict.
The existence of Hunter Biden’s laptop was first publicly disclosed on Oct. 14, 2020, when the New York Post ran a front page story detailing how emails found on the laptop tied his father to his Ukrainian business partners.
[......]
It was only after the conclusion of the 2020 presidential election that Hunter Biden himself suddenly acknowledged through a statement that he was indeed under federal investigation. Notably, the actual federal investigation was even broader than Biden’s statement had indicated, as it was later disclosed that investigators were also “probing potential money laundering and Hunter Biden’s foreign ties.”
That investigation continues to this day and appears to be heating up. Indeed, it may be likely that The NY Times’s belated admission is an attempt to get ahead of the story, particularly as reports have now begun to circulate that Biden is currently the “subject/target” of a grand jury investigation.
Perhaps the most damning email on the laptop was the one that Biden received on Nov. 2, 2015, from the head of Burisma’s board, Vadym Pozharskyi. That email tasked Biden with producing “deliverables,” stating that the “ultimate purpose” was to “close down any cases or pursuits” against Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky in Ukraine. Earlier in 2015, Pozharskyi had “spent some time” with Joe Biden in Washington.
[......]
Pozharskyi’s target appeared to be Ukraine’s Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who had reopened an investigation into Zlochevsky that had been shut down by his predecessor in late 2014 after Burisma had allegedly paid a $7 million bribe to the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office. The allegations of the bribe were made public through the release of a 2016 State Department email.
Less than three weeks after Hunter Biden received Pozharskyi’s email, Joe Biden issued his first demand that Shokin be removed. After Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko failed to comply with the demands, Biden leveraged $1 billion in U.S. taxpayer loan guarantees to force Shokin’s removal. Shokin was finally removed by Poroshenko in March 2016. In the ensuing months, his successor, Yuriy Lutsenko, approved by Biden, wound down his office’s Burisma investigations.
[......]
And how can the corporate media, which has demonstrated their willingness to lie for political partisan gain, be entrusted to provide us with accurate coverage of the Biden investigation or the ongoing conflict in Ukraine?
Perhaps most importantly, how can our intelligence community—who interfered in both the 2016 and the 2020 elections by legitimizing the Clinton campaign’s fabricated claims of Russia collusion and blaming Biden’s laptop problems on a Russian plot—be trusted on their claims about Ukraine, our foreign policy, and our domestic affairs in general?
Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities
Despite numerous challenges, the Church Committee investigated and identified a wide range of intelligence abuses by federal agencies, including the CIA, FBI, Internal Revenue Service, and National Security Agency. In the course of their work, investigators identified programs that had never before been known to the American public, including NSA’s Projects SHAMROCK and MINARET, programs which monitored wire communications to and from the United States and shared some of that data with other intelligence agencies. Committee staff researched the FBI’s long-running program of “covert action designed to disrupt and discredit the activities of groups and individuals deemed a threat to the social order,” known as COINTELPRO. The FBI included among the program’s many targets organizations such as the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the anti-Vietnam War movement, and individuals such as Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as local, state, and federal elected officials.
Tore Maras says that she paid Hunter Biden’s main prostitute “a lot of money” to convince him to leave his computer behind, in order to free himself from the prison in which his father had built for him.

It was only after the conclusion of the 2020 presidential election that Hunter Biden himself suddenly acknowledged through a statement that he was indeed under federal investigation. Notably, the actual federal investigation was even broader than Biden’s statement had indicated, as it was later disclosed that investigators were also “probing potential money laundering and Hunter Biden’s foreign ties.”
That investigation continues to this day and appears to be heating up. Indeed, it may be likely that The NY Times’s belated admission is an attempt to get ahead of the story, particularly as reports have now begun to circulate that Biden is currently the “subject/target” of a grand jury investigation.
Perhaps the most damning email on the laptop was the one that Biden received on Nov. 2, 2015, from the head of Burisma’s board, Vadym Pozharskyi. That email tasked Biden with producing “deliverables,” stating that the “ultimate purpose” was to “close down any cases or pursuits” against Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky in Ukraine. Earlier in 2015, Pozharskyi had “spent some time” with Joe Biden in Washington.

Pozharskyi’s target appeared to be Ukraine’s Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, who had reopened an investigation into Zlochevsky that had been shut down by his predecessor in late 2014 after Burisma had allegedly paid a $7 million bribe to the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office. The allegations of the bribe were made public through the release of a 2016 State Department email.
Less than three weeks after Hunter Biden received Pozharskyi’s email, Joe Biden issued his first demand that Shokin be removed. After Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko failed to comply with the demands, Biden leveraged $1 billion in U.S. taxpayer loan guarantees to force Shokin’s removal. Shokin was finally removed by Poroshenko in March 2016. In the ensuing months, his successor, Yuriy Lutsenko, approved by Biden, wound down his office’s Burisma investigations.

And how can the corporate media, which has demonstrated their willingness to lie for political partisan gain, be entrusted to provide us with accurate coverage of the Biden investigation or the ongoing conflict in Ukraine?
Perhaps most importantly, how can our intelligence community—who interfered in both the 2016 and the 2020 elections by legitimizing the Clinton campaign’s fabricated claims of Russia collusion and blaming Biden’s laptop problems on a Russian plot—be trusted on their claims about Ukraine, our foreign policy, and our domestic affairs in general?

Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities
Despite numerous challenges, the Church Committee investigated and identified a wide range of intelligence abuses by federal agencies, including the CIA, FBI, Internal Revenue Service, and National Security Agency. In the course of their work, investigators identified programs that had never before been known to the American public, including NSA’s Projects SHAMROCK and MINARET, programs which monitored wire communications to and from the United States and shared some of that data with other intelligence agencies. Committee staff researched the FBI’s long-running program of “covert action designed to disrupt and discredit the activities of groups and individuals deemed a threat to the social order,” known as COINTELPRO. The FBI included among the program’s many targets organizations such as the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the anti-Vietnam War movement, and individuals such as Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as local, state, and federal elected officials.
