They can't win elections playing by the rules, so they have to change the rules, resorting to gerrymandering and 'fixing' election laws to ...[text shortened]... mp's people have de-compiled the software and know how to make voting machines 'tip' votes for 2024.

That is absolutely ridiculous. People went to prison for what? Define "it".
What were they specifically convicted of? For example, what did George Papadopoulos do that had anything to do with Russia? What did anybody do that had anything to do with Russia any worse than Hillary and Obama's pal Podesta did?

Podesta Group filed lobbying disclosures with the Department of Justice in April and August saying it did work in 2012 for the same pro-Russian Ukrainian group for which Manafort had worked. Podesta Group work alongside another Washington lobbying firm, Mercury LLC, which also said on Monday that it was cooperating with Mueller's team.
