1. United States Election Integrity Plan ("USEIP") is deploying its agents, who are sometimes armed, to go door-to-door around Colorado to intimidate voters.

2. USEIP agents, wearing badges that identify themselves as official-sounding groups such as the "Voter Integrity Committee," and sometimes introducing themselves in ways that make voters believe that they are associated with government agencies, are using public voter lists to target and intimidate voters. USEIP agents ask residents to confirm their address, question residents about their participation in the 2020 election and their method for voting, and either ask them about allegedly fraudulent ballots or accuse them of casting allegedly fraudulent ballots.

3. During their door-to-door campaigns, USEIP agents take photos of voters' residences, and the organization maintains a database of photos of voters' residences.

4. In order to threaten voters, in their own homes, with potentially violent confrontations, USEIP encourages its agents to carry weapons and has informed its canvassers that it is attempting to line up security for its door-to-door voter intimidation campaigns. In its chatroom, USEIP members regularly offer advice on effective weapons and where to purchase them. During its canvassing events, USEIP has encouraged gun-carrying members to accompany unarmed agents and offer their contact information to unarmed agents.

5. Defendants' objectives are clear. By planning to, threatening to, and actually deploying armed agents to knock on doors throughout the state of Colorado, USEIP is engaging in voter intimidation. USEIP's actions not only intimidate voters who cast ballots in the November 2020 election, but also intimidate future eligible voters, dissuading both groups from exercising their constitutional right to vote. USEIP is actively generating and spreading fear that voters can expect multiple armed and unarmed USEIP members to show up at their doors at any moment to harass and interrogate them about their voting history.

6. The fear of violence is all the more palpable given USEIP's participation in the events that unfolded at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021, its ties to QAnon, which the FBI has identified as a domestic terror threat, and its public, and sometimes violent, threats against Colorado election officials. And this fear is even more who have, historically, faced extensive violence and intimidation efforts, often instigated by armed individuals, to prevent their free exercise of the franchise. As USEIP's actions make plain, voter intimidation remains a reality for many voters of color, threatening their ability to exercise their right to vote freely, or feel safe from interference in their own homes. To this end, USEIP's actions are especially drastic and alarming because, rather than confronting voters at the polls or other public places, USEIP agents are intimidating voters in the place where voters should feel safest their own homes.

7. Defendants' canvassing has the purpose and effect of intimidating Coloradans from voting, trying to vote, helping others to vote, supporting or advocating for certain political beliefs, or exercising the right to speak, peaceably assemble, or petition the government for redress of grievances, in violation of Section 11(b) of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, 52 U.S.C. 10307(b).

8. In addition, Defendants Smith, Epp, and Kasun have conspired and worked in concert with one anothernamely through USEIPto threaten to or actually show up at voters doors around Colorado, interrogating them about their voting history, and thereby intimidating voters and preventing Coloradans who are lawfully entitled to vote from giving their support or advocacy towards political candidates, in violation of the Ku Klux Klan Act, 42 U.S.C. 1985.

9. With the 2022 elections fast-approaching,1 Defendants' voter intimidation campaign must be stopped. acute for Black and Latino communities


Interesting case they have.

Edit: It's related to THIS report that USEIP created.

Now lets do crimes committed by democrat supporters

Yeah, I'm sure this totally happened, and exactly the way that "Salon" is "reporting" it.

****ing laughable.

Hahahahaha. Another fail by OP. Battin' a thousand!

This is laughable. The Democrats have set the new rule that there are no rules. State election laws do not matter either.
Black Panthers at voting centers is ok too.

One of the dudes checking out residences on the voter roles to discuss how poisonous and destructive democrats are and investigate possible voter fraud had a firearm holstered on his hip.

The left: "THESE POTENTIALLY VIOLENT VOTER INTIMIDATION PRACTICES CANNOT BE TOLERATED!!!!!!!"

Oh, Bobo.

Yeah, I'm going to need to see videos and photos of this.

No, those would be shopped or faked somehow.

This did not happen.

The NAACP, League of Women Voters, and Mi Familia Vota were those people!? ROFL. Ok, buddy.

Go on over to the Hunter Biden laptop thread. It's pretty fun too!

Nah. They seem to be enjoying their nothinburger atm. I would only spoil it for them.

Libs, why do you always do this to yourselves? You can get by with your group think on Twitter and other places where your "listeners" have zero brain. But, this board is full of educated people.

Damn, that's a head shot right there.

So allegations in a complaint are automatically true? Seems we need to revisit the election fraud claims.

This is the best part:

Seems there would not have been a coordinated effort with the FBI, big tech and the MSM if it were a nothing burger. That's a massive effort to spread obvious disinformation to cover up a nothing burger.

Well, the motorcycle club had a party.

Anyone got the pic of those armed BLM militia standing outside the courthouse during the Arbury trial verdict?

Anybody with common sense going door to door in a dem neighborhood should be armed

Would it be a "nothingburger" if a Trump borrowed more than $1 million to pay back taxes while being investigated for federal tax crimes?

Quote:

---

Hunter Biden told associates in recent months that he paid the federal taxes that had been the subject of Justice Department scrutiny. He told one associate that the tax liability was more than $1 million, and that he had to take out a loan to pay it off.

Federal tax prosecutors generally fight to keep jurors from knowing whether defendants have paid their back tax bills, arguing that the crime happens when the return is falsely filed or not filed at all, said Jeffrey Neiman, a former Justice Department tax prosecutor and a partner at Marcus, Neiman, Rashbaum & Pineiro. Such knowledge could influence jurors, even if a judge asks them not to consider it.

Mr. Neiman said that defense lawyers encourage clients to pay their back taxes if they believe they could be indicted on federal tax crimes, as it often helps with sentencing.

The sad part is that there are aggies that are drinking this stuff up just like they did Covid.

We should be producing better students than that. Expect this from sips, not from Ags.

The lawsuit alleges that the U.S. Election Integrity Plan led by Shawn Smith, an ally of former Trump strategist Steve Bannon and MyPillow founder Mike Lindell is sending armed members door-to-door in areas with large numbers of voters of color, questioning people about how they voted and taking photographs of their homes.

"Sometimes armed and donning badges to present an appearance of government officiality, USEIP agents interrogate voters about their addresses, whether they participated in the 2020 election, and if so how they cast their vote," the complaint says. "It is reported that multiple agents have claimed to be from 'the county,' and have, without any evidence, falsely accused the residents of casting fraudulent ballots."

The voting rights groups say the group's efforts to seek out areas where they believe voter fraud occurred has largely focused on high-density housing areas and communities experiencing a growth in the number of minority voters.

If they're going door to door then I'll just wait for all the doorbell and driveway camera footage to be released by salon.com.

Hey OP:

1) Quit trying to troll
2) Stay away from far left "news" sites
(Salon has a far left bias in its daily reviews of domestic politics and provocative cultural topics. - according to the interwebs)
3) Also, stay away from TexAgs

Wrong and wrong. Obama was president for 8 years, and he's been out of office for 5+ years.

Here is part of the story from Associated Press. AP does not mention anything about any evidence of this happening (armed individuals going door-to-door). Instead it mentions the possibility of such in the future being a concern from those filing the lawsuit (bolded). They are citing the 19th-century Ku Klux Klan Act.

DENVER (AP) A coalition of civil and voting rights organizations invoked the 19th-century Ku Klux Klan Act in a lawsuit filed Wednesday seeking to stop a group of Donald Trump supporters from going door-to-door in Colorado in a search for already-debunked voter fraud.

The suit against the U.S. Election Integrity Plan alleges that the group's activities include photographing voters' homes and "door-to-door voter intimidation" in areas where a high number of minorities live. The group was founded after Trump lost the 2020 election to Democrat Joe Biden and made false claims of mass voter fraud.

Shawn Smith, a retired Air Force colonel who runs the group, did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent to Cause for America, a separate "election integrity" group he runs. USEIP has no listed phone number or email.

The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of the state chapter of the NAACP, the League of Women Voters and Mi Familia Vota.

The move represents a high-profile push against a new method that election deniers have used to try to advance claims of voter fraud that have been roundly dismissed. Repeated audits and investigations including by Trump's own Department of Justice found no significant fraud in the 2020 election, and Trump backers lost more than 50 lawsuits trying to overturn the vote.

The lawsuit relies in part on the KKK Act, which was passed after the Civil War to prevent white vigilantes from using violence and terror to stop Black people from voting. The law has recently been cited in a lawsuit over the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat, accused Trump of conspiring with far-right extremist groups that were involved in storming the U.S. Capitol.

The civil and voting rights groups allege that USEIP members sometimes carry firearms and badges during visits to voters' homes, even though they do not work for the government. It cites no specific examples.

"They're sending a very clear message that if you vote in the future in Colorado, you can expect an armed agent showing up at your door," said Courtney Hostetler, an attorney at the legal nonprofit Free Speech For People, which filed the case.

USEIP thanks Mike Lindell, the chief executive of MyPillow and a major supporter of election deniers, in its organizing manual. Smith attended a meeting that Lindell organized on election conspiracy theories last August along with Tina Peters, a clerk in Colorado's western Mesa County who was indicted by a grand jury Wednesday for her role in copying confidential election data that appeared on conspiracy websites after the event.

The Colorado secretary of state's office says Smith was on the telephone with a clerk in a second county as he made copies of information from his own election system and gave it to two people not authorized to view it. Last month, at a gathering of election conspiracy theorists, during a discussion of Colorado's Democratic secretary of state, Smith said, "If you're involved in election fraud, then you deserve to hang."

In late November, Lindell hired Smith to run Cause of America. In an interview on former Trump adviser Steve Bannon's podcast, Smith said the new organization would "help coordinate the election integrity efforts of citizens across the country."

Lindell did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday.

The lawsuit alleges that the U.S. Election Integrity Plan targets high-density housing that often is full of minority voters who are more likely to vote Democratic.

"Sometimes armed and donning badges to present an appearance of government officiality, USEIP agents interrogate voters about their addresses, whether they participated in the 2020 election, and if so how they cast their vote," the lawsuit said. "It is reported that multiple agents have claimed to be from 'the county,' and have, without any evidence, falsely accused the residents of casting fraudulent ballots."

The group says on its website that it plans to expand to other states like Arizona, Georgia and New Hampshire. Its materials have been used by conspiracy theorists going door-to-door in Utah, according to the Salt Lake Tribune.

"It's extremely scary," said Portia Prescott, president of the NAACP of Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. If the group knocks on someone's door, she contended, "you feel like a target, they know how you vote. Will you vote the next time? Probably not."
