More proof that Trump knew all along

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

The “big lie” started everything. Donald Trump couldn’t accept that he lost. While most people didn’t believe Trump, his MAGA supporters, rabid for an answer of why their guy lost, bought it-pardon the cliché-hook, line, and sinker. They were determined to accept and uphold Trump’s “truth” even though, on its face, it was a lie. They knew it too. Now, one has stepped forward who can not only shed light on that lie but who says he proved it was a lie.

Ken Block owns a company called Simpatico Software Systems, which was hired by Trump in November 2020. According to Block, after intense research, he not only found no proof of fraud, but his investigation revealed that any claims of fraud simply were not viable. Writing about his work for the Trump campaign for USA Today, he went further by saying that if fraud existed in the 2020 election, it would have been proven by now.

Because of his role, Block was deposed by the House Select Committee. As shown by transcripts, Block testified that his investigation showed no evidence of fraud that would have changed the outcome, and he communicated that information directly to Mark Meadows. Despite the information provided to him, Meadows continued to parrot the lie. Block’s findings have been subpoenaed by both Jack Smith and Fani Willis, which makes sense. He received his data from the Trump campaign, and it revealed and contained nothing that should have led them to believe anything untoward happened with respect to voting in 2020. Block further reviewed other evidence that showed the claims of fraud were false, “including proof of why those claims were disproven.” Now, if all this evidence was put before Trump and his team, why did they continue to lie? Block seems puzzled by that himself, as he said that voter fraud is “detectable, quantifiable, and verifiable.” He has not seen any evidence that includes those elements.

That proof is one of the main reasons Trump will lose in the cases filed by Fani Willis and Jack Smith. Even as Trump continued to cry “fraud,” no verifiable proof existed. Block said that any proof they found had to stand up in a court of law, and there was no proof. He said that there were instances of double-voting-by both Democrats and Republicans-and a small amount of people voting in the names of deceased people. Again, none of what Block found was enough to change the outcome of the election, and the issue should have been dropped. Instead, Trump used it to defraud people into donating money and, in general, causing people to mistrust a system that has been in place for decades. These lies will come back to haunt Donald Trump, and if he had any sense, he would stop this nonsense. Instead, he has started off 2024 with new conspiracies, claiming that Liz Cheney destroyed evidence and committed “extreme sabotage.” Enjoy spreading lies via Truth Social while you can, Trump. Of course, there’s always the chance that you’ll have Internet in jail.
