A federal grand jury in the Southern District of Florida has indicted three executives of election voting machine and service provider Smartmatic, as well as a former Chairman of the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) of the Philippines. The men, including Smartmatic’s own President, Roger Pinate, stand accused of facilitating at least $1 million in bribes.

These bribes were reportedly made to secure and maintain business related to the provision of voting machines and election services for the 2016 Philippines elections and to ensure the release of value-added tax payments.

The co-conspirators allegedly funded the bribes by over-invoicing the cost per voting machine, thereby creating a slush fund. To hide these corrupt payments, they used coded language and created fraudulent contracts and sham loan agreements. They then supposedly laundered the proceeds through bank accounts in Asia, Europe, and the United States, including Florida.

So….did the deep state just use DOJ to “put the accused on ice” so that they can’t testify about WHO set up the bribery financial methodology prior to the Nov election? IE:  not just enemies that they are taking off the playing field (Bannon) but supposed friends from 2020 too??
