Venezula Stole The 2020 Elections!
That’s been the recent headlines and nonstop cavalcade of interviews with a wide variety of election experts, foreign country experts and paid pundits pushing out over the airways.
The use of the word “pushing” on my part is intentional? There are not many ways I can find where the United States can prosecute anyone individual or group of individuals for doing anything from Venezuela to America. Another point, even is the leader (or past leader) of Venezuela could be prosecuted over elections does that even incarcerate the actual companies or individuals who did it? Or does such even fix the United States elections? I think not!
For me, I think proving such a case with real prosecuatable evidence we be very hard if not impossible.

In an effort to understand if anything at all could be done to Venezuela over possible election I decided to dig deep and find out LEGALLY what could be done! For me, only hard evidence, which has been proven can change the nefarious nature of our US elections. This is why making sure we PROTECT the Full Forensic Audit Archives. Trust me - it is going to be needed after the midterms. Let’s look at the legal standards and what we can do:
Based on the circulating claims that - voting software with purported Venezuelan origins being used to influence U.S. elections, particularly the 2020 presidential race. These claims primarily involve companies like Smartmatic (founded by Venezuelans but U.S.-based) and Dominion Voting Systems (a separate Canadian-American firm), which some have falsely accused of using software designed to rig Venezuelan elections under Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro, then applying it to “flip” U.S. votes. For instance, Smartmatic itself publicly accused the Maduro regime of tampering with turnout figures in Venezuela’s 2017 election (unrelated to U.S. systems), and both companies have won massive defamation settlements against media outlets promoting the claims, including Fox News’ $787 million payout to Dominion in 2023.

Addressing the “what if” scenario hypothetically which I seek answers for: If software originating from or tied to Venezuela were verifiably used in U.S. elections and believed to have impacted results (e.g., through manipulation, hacking, or undue influence), it would trigger a cascade of legal, investigative, and diplomatic responses under U.S. law. Voting systems are considered critical infrastructure, and foreign interference in elections is treated as a national security threat. Below, I’ll outline potential outcomes based on established legal frameworks, precedents, and how similar allegations have played out.
Immediate Investigative and Enforcement Actions
Federal Investigations: The Department of Justice (DOJ), FBI, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) would launch probes. For example, in late 2025, Trump’s DOJ reportedly interviewed individuals pushing Venezuela-related 2020 claims as part of broader election inquiries, though no evidence emerged. If substantiated, this could escalate to grand jury indictments for foreign actors or U.S. enablers.
Election Audits and Recounts: States using the software would conduct forensic audits (as seen in Arizona’s 2021 Maricopa County review, which found no fraud). Federal oversight via the Election Assistance Commission could mandate nationwide reviews.
Civil Lawsuits: Affected parties (e.g., candidates or voters) could sue for damages under laws like the Voting Rights Act. Defamation suits have already arisen from baseless claims, costing broadcasters hundreds of millions.
Potential Crimes and Prosecutions
If proven, such interference could violate multiple U.S. statutes with extraterritorial reach, allowing prosecution even if acts occurred in Venezuela (as discussed in prior contexts like drug trafficking or terrorism ties). Offenders (e.g., Venezuelan officials, software developers, or complicit U.S. entities) could face charges if extradited or apprehended. Here’s a table of key offenses:

At first glance I personally don’t see in these citations above that actually put the real offenders in jail. Yes, there are ways to pressure countries and gain favors in exchange for “offenses”, but no one would really go to prison.
Thus my quesion: Who would actually go to Prison?
Lets continue:
Prosecutions would require a U.S. nexus (e.g., software used in American jurisdictions or affecting U.S. citizens). Extradition from Venezuela is unlikely without regime change, but individuals could be tried in absentia or seized (as with Maduro’s 2026 abduction and New York trial). International bodies like the Organization of American States might condemn it as electoral sabotage.
“might condemn it as electoral sabotage”
Look at that end result, “might condemn it as electoral sabotage”. Is that not the same thing as a strongly worded letter sent out by Republicans?

With what you know thus far from legal review, what could actually happen if the “Venezuela conntection” was proven?
Diplomatic Fallout: Heightened sanctions, asset seizures, or military posturing. Post-2026 Maduro capture, some theorists linked U.S. actions in Venezuela to “uncovering” election tech ties, though officials denied it as a motive. Could strain U.S.-Venezuela relations further, potentially leading to asylum claims or defections revealing evidence.
Election Reforms: Congress might pass laws banning foreign-owned voting tech (e.g., proposals post-2006 Smartmatic scrutiny). Increased paper ballot mandates or blockchain verification.
Public Trust Erosion: Even unproven claims fuel distrust, as seen in 2020-2026 revivals, leading to violence (e.g., Jan. 6) or suppressed turnout. Ironically, Venezuelan elections themselves have faced real fraud accusations under Maduro, with international observers decrying manipulation in 2018, 2024, and 2025 polls.
Cybersecurity Implications: DHS would classify it as a cyber attack, prompting defenses against similar threats from adversaries like Russia or China.
For me, I don’t see how ANY of these things FIX our elections and NOTICE public trust erosion has already happened!

When I step back and look at this “Venezuela Did It!” I see another “psychological operation” in play! It’s being broadcast, pushed, promoted and pontificated and the system knows it may not have any real teeth. So, what is the plan?
To placate the American public that something is being done when what the system really wants is the broken system to still be used to control us, place nefarious actors in elected positions and they enable the raping of the system and us!
WHAT SAY YOU?
FOR ME, in the end we 100% need hard physical proof of what happened RIGHT HERE IN THE UNITED STATES by the bad actors here. That is why protecting our Full Forensic Audit Archives is so mission critical! Without hard provable evidence NOTHING WILL CHANGE.
With that said WE NEED YOUR HELP. I predict the midterms are going to be a disaster. Then it will be more than a year of legal battles while Trump is still in office. We cannot ride out the financial delta between now and when this critical information will be needed by the Administration and the United States citizens. Will you help us protect this? Any amount will help, please help!
