On Thursday, it was announced that Dominion Voting Systems has officially been acquired by KnowInk, an election technology firm hailing from St. Louis, Missouri, and led by former Republican election official Scott Leiendecker.
KnowInk, now transitioning to the name Liberty Vote, has its roots in the expertise of Leiendecker himself.
The newly formed company released a statement addressing its future direction.
A release indicated that Liberty Vote is dedicated to employing domestic staffing and software development, advocating for hand-marked paper ballots to align with President Trump’s executive order on the same, enhancing auditing standards through third-party oversight, and crafting systems that are both simple and transparent.
In the lead-up to this acquisition, Dominion deftly settled several high-profile lawsuits against conservative figures, including Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell.
However, it notably did not reach a settlement with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell and Patrick Byrne, the former Overstock CEO.
In an exclusive interview Thursday evening, The Gateway Pundit sat down with MyPillow founder Mike Lindell, who exhibited reluctance to withdraw from the fray.
Mike Lindell: “The initial narrative was that they settled everything. Then I went on Steve Bannon’s show and firmly stated, ‘I’m not selling.’ The mere change of a company’s name doesn’t alter our objective. We need to dismantle these voting machines in our country.” He continues, “I won’t rest until they’re all transformed into prison bars.”
Furthermore, he elaborated on Dominion’s attempts to contact him regarding a potential settlement: “They reached out to my lawyer, indicating some form of settlement was in discussion. But let’s be clear—there’s no settlement from my side. Even if they offered me millions, why would I stop now?”
Lindell dismissed media narratives claiming that the acquisition by a “Republican-run company” would alleviate concerns:
Mike Lindell: “When CNN called me, mentioning the conservative nature of the new ownership, I responded that it’s irrelevant who owns these machines. The reality is that these unipartite Republicans can be just as detrimental. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a conservative or a liberal—these systems remain unchanged.” He noted, “CNN suggested this new company champions paper ballots, yet we’re only redefining how they are counted, not the system’s inherent flaws.”
Jim Hoft: “You wouldn’t invest in Dominion to transition to paper ballots; half a billion dollars isn’t spent to phase out machines.”
Mike Lindell: “It’s absurd. The stench of this deal is palpable. It’s curious how CNN reported this without addressing how it might fit into Donald Trump’s wider narrative of control over our voting systems.”
Jim Hoft: “Absolutely! Especially when this company intends to influence elections across forty states.”
Lindell remains skeptical of the transaction’s potential for positive change, pledging to persist in advocating for complete transparency and hand-counted paper ballots.
As developments unfold, Americans will observe closely to ascertain whether Liberty Vote’s promises for reform will yield substantive change or merely camouflage the existing discontent within the electoral system.
