Hasn't Dennis been "sick" before when he had to show up and support his bullshit? Maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.

That's him. Ah the glory days of sending 50-odd hard drives packed with reruns of Al Jazeera News to the FBI for safe-keeping. He is a first-class grifter.

Yup. What a convoluted way to lose your own lawsuit.
Oh yeah.Shizzle Popped wrote: ↑Tue Aug 10, 2021 7:03 pm Hasn't Dennis been "sick" before when he had to show up and support his bullshit?
When Montgomery was suing Risen for defamation, Montgomery was conveniently stroked out and on death's door whenever Risen needed information from him.
Montgomery (with Klayman's "help") lost that lawsuit.

He has spent something like 10 years in the hospital and on death's door. It is his standing reason why his Las Vegas/Nevada criminal case is still pending since 2008. Oddly, the same dude on death's door was traveling with Klayman to DC to meet with Lamberth and then the FBI in Florida. Then GIL told the court Montgomery was on death's door and could not travel.Shizzle Popped wrote: ↑Tue Aug 10, 2021 7:03 pm Hasn't Dennis been "sick" before when he had to show up and support his bullshit?

Oh, and he registered to vote in Florida, while on death's door in Washington.

Mike has to go "off stage" to get that HUGE 7pm (8pm EDT) announcement ready! Wake the kids, call the neighbors! They threw it to RSBN who wants the marks to "blow it away" and buy, buy, buy MyPillow products! It's a Telethon for MyPillow.
Greg Frank keeps making awful commentary on the states like singing bars of Oklahoma when they're showing the "numbers", and saying "Sweet Home" when they were showing Alabama.

The con is winding down
By Philip Bump National correspondent Today at 5:47 p.m. EDT
Allow me to present to you the evidence that China stole the 2020 election. Please sit down; I don’t want you to be injured when you faint.
So: voilà.
Yes, you’re reading that right. Looks like you owe MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell an apology.
Hm? You say you can’t figure out what you’re supposed to be looking at? Well, that’s just because you [mumbles] and you know what, I really have to get going to this dentist’s appointment. Let’s change gears for a second. Imagine that someone handed you an envelope containing a lengthy document written in Portuguese. You have it translated and you learn that it’s a written confession from a criminal who is currently siphoning billions of dollars a day from millions of individual checking accounts. What do you do next? Presumably, you call the local police or the FBI. You present them with the original document and the translation and let them take it from there. What you presumably do not do is promise for weeks on end that you have definitive proof that someone is stealing millions of dollars from bank accounts and that people need to fly to some remote location so that you can unveil that proof over the course of three days.
The gibberish above is one result of the latter process. Lindell, who has claimed for months and months that he had definitive proof that the 2020 presidential election was stolen by China, pledged to release that information at a “cyber symposium” that is underway in South Dakota. According to Lindell, someone captured Internet traffic in the days after the election that shows how votes were shifted away from Donald Trump and to President Biden. Instead of simply presenting this evidence to the public, he withheld it, offering $5 million to anyone who can prove that the information isn’t legitimate.
Rob Graham, a technologist and author, went to the summit to evaluate what Lindell claims to have. During a “breakout session,” he and others were provided with access to what Lindell’s team claims to have obtained. Graham shared what they were given — a collection of files that consists of 1) a list of computer Internet protocol addresses and 2) gibberish like that above. Well, technically they were given rich-text format files, some of which were inexplicably converted to hexadecimal encoding. Graham, an expert on Internet data, described the provided material as “a bunch of confusing stuff they can’t explain,” and said that those running the symposium pledged to hand over the “real” information Tuesday night or Wednesday. Meanwhile, Lindell’s live stream of the symposium — being watched by hundreds of thousands of people on one streaming feed — presses on, with the CEO mostly riffing on how toxic the media is. Promotions offer viewers codes for discounts at MyPillow, a useful bit of advertising given that Lindell’s conspiracy theories have cost his company placement in a number of retailers’ inventories.
Again, it’s been the case for months that Lindell has said his “cyber experts” saw proof of vote hacking in the captured packets of data. It would, presumably, be very easy for those experts to then stand up and quickly walk through what they found and what it means. But this has never happened. It’s never even been explained what such evidence would look like. Instead, Lindell’s relied on lengthy statistical presentations from a guy named Douglas Frank, presentations that are the functional equivalent of a kid reviewing a Jackson Pollock painting: They’re looking at something, to be sure, and picking out patterns and meaning where they can. Of course, it would also be easy for Lindell’s team to present the raw data in a format that people at the symposium could examine. Graham says they were told it was in a “proprietary BLX/PLX format,” maybe. So the gibberish above might be some kind of encoding, like some sort of compression. But then, you don’t convert that to rich-text format or identify it as an .RTF file. You share the compressed file and say it’s a compressed file. (Converting the text above to a compressed file did not make it accessible, by the way. Nor did converting it to a PDF, a JPEG or a PNG.) If you are trying to prove something, you prove it.
But what if you’re not trying to prove it? What if you’re trying to make some cash and you stumbled onto a big, juicy mark? What if there were a millionaire desperate to prove something, a millionaire who’s not exactly an Internet savant but one willing to hand over loads of cash for data you made up — as some of the data previously released by Lindell pretty obviously was? For a while, you’re skating, cashing checks and sending along reports on occasion. Eventually, though, you get closer and closer to the point at which you need to actually turn over your work. This is how all cons end. Things stretch and stretch and stretch until: snap. So instead of presenting your data, you encode it and obfuscate it and promise that there’s actually something there, but wait, hmm, that is weird, let me see what’s happening. Instead you say things like that there was a medical emergency that slowed things down and just ask everyone to stick with you for a moment. It’s just buying time — like Trump calling senators on Jan. 6 — hoping that if another hour or so passes, you can somehow regain control.
For a long time, I couldn’t figure out why Lindell was stretching things out the way he is. I believe that he’s being taken for a ride, though perhaps unintentionally. (I think Douglas Frank believes he’s stumbled onto a secret conspiracy, for example, though he obviously hasn’t.) But why is he letting the fraud keep going? Why’s he participating in stretching it out? Watching the symposium live stream Tuesday morning, I think I figured it out. The start of the event was delayed by technological problems, problems Lindell claimed were a function of his bespoke social media site being “hacked.” This was the refrain: He’d done everything right but hackers kept picking apart his site’s defenses. He said the same thing when his site first launched and quickly got flooded. He also said Tuesday morning that his plane had trouble landing Monday night, hinting at a conspiracy aimed at silencing him. In other words, this seems very much like a guy who’s primed to believe fairly far-flung excuses for why bad things happen. The kind of guy who, when told that the data will be ready in a month, waits patiently for the month to pass. Maybe he’s something more sinister, engaged in an effort to willfully delude America, but observing him over time makes it seem more like he’s the mark than the hustler.
On Monday, Cato Institute senior fellow Julian Sanchez offered an insightful chain of thoughts about the overlap between those who believe false claims about the election being stolen and those who reject the coronavirus vaccine as dangerous. In both cases, Sanchez wrote, the conspiracy theories “have the superficial trappings of real science. Links to journal articles on the one hand, or on the other, impressively hackery looking hex dumps & spreadsheets full of IP addresses” — a reference to Lindell’s information. “n both cases, this evidence is absolutely useless to the target audience,” he continued. “They have neither the training nor the context to evaluate the quality or relevance of technical articles in medical journals — or even to understand what the article is claiming in many cases. … They are, however, being flattered by the INVITATION to assess the evidence for themselves — do your own research, make up your own mind!”

Now they are saying Mike has put his life and his family on the line. Then she says to buy some pillows.

Re: Mike Lindell's Frank & MyStore & 'Cyber Symposium' & Other #FAILS - FrankSpeech
Sounds like this is all about a Colorado fraudit. Press release:
https://www.sos.state.co.us/pubs/newsRo ... ounty.htmlStatement from Colorado Secretary of State’s Office Regarding Official Order to Mesa County
Denver, August 9, 2021 - Today, the Colorado Secretary of State’s office issued an Order in response to a potential chain-of-custody and security protocol breach for Mesa County’s voting system components.
Several items were published online that constituted a breach in the security protocols for Mesa County voting system components. The posted images depict the BIOS passwords specific to the individual hardware stations of Mesa County’s voting system. The public disclosure of the BIOS passwords for one or more components of Mesa County’s voting system alone constitutes a serious breach of voting system security protocols, as well as a violation of Election Rule 20.6.1. This breach in security protocol has not created an imminent direct security risk to Colorado’s elections, and did not occur during an election.
It is likely from the content of the social media postings that this sensitive information was collected during the limited access trusted build installation in Mesa County on May 25, 2021. The collection and dissemination of this information during the trusted build installation violated security protocols and Department of State rules governing the process.
In response to this breach in protocols, the Secretary of State’s office has sent an Order requesting inspection of election equipment and other relevant materials to the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder. Depending on the outcome of the investigation, these violations may result in the decertification of the voting systems in Mesa County.

True! It's nuts.
Leadstories on Dennis Montgomery:

The BIG ANNOUNCEMENT was going to be about Mesa County CO... but while they rode on the plane their office got RAIDED because they broke the law and released confidential data with a bio level password.
Tina Peters gets a standing ovation for that. What will she do when they throw Tina in jail? OMG.

If you don’t understand what took place you’re not paying attention. The SoS of Colorado set up a false charge of disclosing passwords for the election system against the County Clerk as a way to raid her office and alter official election records. This is right out of Putin’s KGB playbook and nobody is going to stop them at this point.
The government of Colorado is out of control and has become a criminal enterprise under color of authority. Where is outrage from those who must defend the rule of law?
