USPS ‘Whistleblower’ Told Agents Project Veritas Penned His Ballot-Tampering Claim


The two-hour recording shows that Richard Hopkins recanted claims he had made in a sworn affidavit that top Republicans cited over the weekend as potential evidence of widespread election irregularities and fraud.

Hopkins told federal investigators on Monday his allegations were based on fragments of conversation among co-workers in a noisy mail facility in Erie, Pa., according to the recording.

When an agent from the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General asked Hopkins if he stood by his sworn statement that a supervisor “was backdating ballots” mailed after Election Day, Hopkins answered: “At this point? No.”

He also agreed to sign a revised statement that undercut his earlier affidavit.

Hopkins also repeatedly expressed regret for signing the initial affidavit because it overstated what he knew and witnessed, according to the recording.

He told agents the affidavit was written by Project Veritas.

He said he was not fully aware of its contents because he was in “so much shock I wasn’t paying that much attention to what they were telling me.”

its not very difficult to be admitted to practice in federal district courts :lol... just be admitted to that state and pay a fee.

if i paid some money i could be admitted to all sorts of district courts in CA and VA

and you dont even need to take the DC bar to practice there, just be admitted to any other state for 5 years, be in good standing, and pay them some money for an application fee

i'd also generally be skeptical of people who make "best lawyers of x" awards... i get solicitation emails asking me to pay them money to get on such lists all the time :lol. hard to know which ones are actually meritorious

Veritas and dishonest republicans said X, this guy now says Y.

Veritas lied and made shit up. Like they always do.

The core of modern conservatism is dishonesty. and violence.
