If Raffensperger doesn't personally handcuff each board member he is Literally Hitler

Seriously though I would appreciate OP's thoughts on what additional actions he should take

I would love to see a detailed technical explanation for how this would be possible.

I design battery-powered electronics for a living and I can't think of any design that would let a battery explode with the violence these did, let alone on command. Unless it were deliberate.

That's kind of an unnecessary leap.

they get audited, at least, yearly by law

The IRS doesn't audit annually, companies hire 3rd party auditors. And it's not a tax requirement, it's a public-company requirement.

Yes there is a difference, but LLC is a legal concept, not a tax one. The IRS taxes sole proprietors the same whether or not they have an LLC.

Tax entities include sole proprietorship (default), partnerships, s corps, c corps. Any of those can be LLCs, but they don't have to.

Profitability is just a proxy for whether someone is legitimately running a business, or just trying to save money on their hobby. Businesses can deduct expenses, hobbies cannot.

So if you are running an etsy store or an engineering company and buy a 3d printer to make parts, the cost of that 3d printer is subtracted from revenue for tax purposes. If your "business" is actually a hobby, it's not legally a business expense and therefore it's not deductible

Well I wasn't conscripted to be on his detail (and neither were you) so i guess they didn't do all they could

I assume MFBR was supposed to be MFBC, and you can see their summary of why they assessed the Guardian that way Here

Link was paywalled for me and I could not make sense of the posted excerpt.

Ballotpedia link

Tldr the measure bundles citizenship language (change from "all" citizens to "only" citizens can vote) and a RCV ban - among other things - into one constitutional amendment.

Seems to me like a white label system. Like all the bullshit copypasta Amazon brands, or home appliances like dehumidifiers.
