The ruling class and corporate media sent a strong signal to Americans who felt it was their patriotic duty to report what they saw as incidents of fraud in the 2020 election:

Shut up.

In many cases, gestapo-like squads went to their doors, media went deep into their pasts looking for any data to be used against them, or social media trolls threatened violence to make sure the concerned Americans kept quiet, a report said.

Melissa Carone, a Michigan information technology worker who raised an alarm about what she viewed as irregularities during the ballot count in Detroit, said she called the FBI twice in attempts to report the problems. “I never got a call back still,” said Carone, who testifled at one of Rudy Giuliani’s election fraud hearings.

In a report for The Washington Times, Alex Swoyer noted that Carone “said people came knocking on her door in outrage over her claims that the Nov. 3 election was rigged. She even changed her phone number to escape the hate calls.”

Carone said her complaints about issues with Dominion Voting Systems’ machines were met with harassment and doxing, including co-workers giving out her address.

Late-night TV talk show hosts joked that she was intoxicated, and “Saturday Night Live” lampooned Carone, a 34-year-old mother, as a ditzy “Valley girl” character.
