Interesting read. I assume this has gained traction in the news?

She Won. They Didn't Just Change the Machines. They Rewired the Election.
How Leonard Leo's 2021 sale of an electronics firm enabled tech giants to subvert the 2024 election
To most, Tripp Lite was just a hardware brandâbattery backups, surge protectors, power strips. But in Americaâs elections, Tripp Lite devices were something else entirely.
They are physically connected to ES&S central tabulators and Electionware servers, and Dominion tabulators and central servers across the country. And they arenât dumb devices. They are smart UPS unitsâprogrammable, updatable, and capable of communicating directly with the election system via USB, serial port, or Ethernet.
ES&S systems, including central tabulators and Electionware servers, rely on Tripp Lite UPS devices. ES&Sâs Electionware suite runs on Windows OS, which automatically trusts connected UPS hardware.
If Eaton pushed an update to those UPS units, it could have gained root-level access to the host tabulation environmentâwithout ever modifying certified election software.
In Dominionâs Democracy Suite 5.17, the drivers for these UPS units are listed as âoptionalââmeaning they can be updated remotely without triggering certification requirements or oversight. Optional means unregulated. Unregulated means invisible. And invisible means perfect for infiltration.
After the Tripp Lite acquisition, Eaton stayed under the radar. But in May 2024, it resurfaced with an announcement that escaped most headlines: Eaton was deepening its partnership with Palantir Technologies.
Letâs be clear, Palantir wasnât brought in for customer service. It was brought in to do what it does best: manage, shape, and secure vast streams of dataâquietly. According to Eatonâs own release, Palantirâs role would include:
- AI-driven oversight of connected infrastructure
- Automated analysis of large datasets
- Andâmost criticallyââsecure erasure of digital footprintsâ
The Digital Janitor: also known as forensic sanitization, it was now being embedded into Eaton-managed hardware connected directly to voting systems. Palantir didnât change the votes. It helped ensure youâd never prove it if someone else did.
According to New York Times reporting, on October 5âjust before Starlinkâs DTC activationâMusk texted a confidant:
âIâm feeling more optimistic after tonight. Tomorrow we unleash the anomaly in the matrix.â
Then, an hour later:
âThis isnât something on the chessboard, so theyâll be quite surprised. âLasersâ from space.â
It read like a riddle. In hindsight, it was a blueprint.
Letâs review what was in place:
This wasnât a theory. It was a full-scale operation. A systemic digital occupationâclean, credentialed, and remote-controlled.
