Investigative Journalist Greg Palast has been on the trail of election thieves since he exposed the theft of the 2000 US presidential election in Florida (Guardian, BBC, The Nation, Harper's). I asked him at the time, “If the Republicans are rigging all these elections, why don’t the Democrats expose it?” He said, “Because they do it too.” Now its 20 years later and nothing has changed. In his new book, out July 14- “How Trump Stole 2020”, Greg lays out the case that the Republicans already have the 2020 election in the snatch bag. What can we do about it? Tune in to my interview and find out. Then buy 20 copies of the book and give it to all your friends!
Here’s what you didn’t know:
“In 2016, no fewer than 5,872,857 ballots were cast—and never counted.
Does it matter? In Detroit, 75,355 ballots were never counted because of 87 broken scanning machines. And Trump supposedly won Michigan by 10,700 votes — really?
And, no fewer than 1,982.071 legal voters were denied the right to vote. Told to get the hell out of the polling station. Can you guess their color?
Add it up. That's at least 7,854,928 legitimate votes and voters tossed out of the count.
So God Bless America. By the way, these numbers are from the raw data supplied to me by the US Elections Assistance Commission.
So: Trump wasn’t elected by voters but by voter-vanishing trickery.
It's official. It's in your face. It's sick. It's unreported.”
Greg Palast has been called the “most important investigative reporter of our time — up there with Woodward and Bernstein” (The Guardian). Palast has broken front-page stories for BBC Television Newsnight, The Guardian, Nation Magazine and now Rolling Stone Magazine.
He is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Billionaires & Ballot Bandits, Armed Madhouse, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and the highly acclaimed Vultures' Picnic, named Book of the Year 2012 on BBC Newsnight Review. He also made a documentary: “The Best Democracy Money Can Buy: A Tale of Billionaires & Ballot Bandits”.
