We have seen the story of True the Vote’s first two parts of an odyssey in unraveling the nightmare of foreign election interference and subsequently discovering the horror of working with the FBI on the substantial threat to the future of America, a relationship that would lead to the federal agency’s betrayal.
It started with True the Vote’s discovery of a not-well-conceived plot by China to subvert the sanctity of America’s institution of voting. Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips, the pair who had confronted strange and disturbing patterns of voting irregularities in their research for the film “2000 Mules,” had thought they had seen everything. But this was different – much different.
Over time, they had witnessed what had emerged as a seemingly existential and substantial threat posed by a foreign company operating brazenly and openly to involve itself in the inner workings of U.S. elections. That company was called Konnech, an unabashedly Chinese company that bought its way into America lock, stock and barrel. And it would be difficult to get it back. The Chinese government had claims to owning all the data gathered from 32 of the largest polling centers in the U.S., unconditionally.
True the Vote took all this information to the FBI. Engelbrecht and Phillips worked closely with them. They were convinced that the agents they were working with, together as partners, getting to truth of the matter, were sincere. And then came the betrayal.
This was called “The Tiger Project.” It came in three acts known as “The Discovery,” “The Op” and “The Betrayal.” It went on from January of 2021 to April of 2022. And it still goes on today.
“The FBI opened up a significant counter-intelligence operation on this,” said Phillips. “It wasn’t just American information, it was Australian information, it was Canadian information, it was Mexican information – and we ultimately found out that that the CCP (The Chinese Communist Party) had its own information on the server.”
So they turned over all this information to the FBI.
