Worthless cellphone data - why on earth believe it??

The supposed "geolocation" data is absolutely crucial to the film's claims.

But the idea that it could locate anyone at a drop box is ridiculous. Best case accuracy is 16', in an open field. The phone in your hand shows you a little better is because it joins in the processing - not the case for any of the film's data. In fact they only claimed 100' accuracy when they sent info to the Georgia authorities. Totally useless.

No supposed mule's phone is ever shown to be near any box.

The "geolocation analyst" is Gregg Phillips, who has no credentials or expertise in that field. He refuses to divulge his method as a "trade secret". He called journalists questioning him on it "terrorists". His claims of using a university supercomputer appear to be false. He promised to release his data but at the ballyhooed "Ripcord" event said... he had lost it all.

So all he actually has are his statements (i.e. Nothing) and the dummy video display mock-ups.

Phillips is notorious for simply claiming that millions of illegals had voted in 2016. No proof ever. Trump set up a task force to investigate this. It silently shut down 6 months later having found none. So... a massive falsehood on the public stage.

Why on earth would anyone believe Phillips about this now? Just because... you want to?

D'Souza DOESN'T tell you that...

(🔹) His cellphone data source "True The Vote" only claims 100 ft accuracy. (🔹) It can't be better than 16' best case. (🔹) He won't let anyone review that work. (🔹) It didn't "solve a murder". (🔹) Any fake ballots "stuffed" in boxes won't be counted anyway. (🔹) Valid ballots can be dropped in a mailbox.(🔹) He has no real videos of putting multiple ballots in a box. (🔹) So he staged the scenes of a "mule" with piles of ballots. (🔹) And the scenes of them going to more than one box. (🔹) Mocked up with an extra-wide mouth for effect. (🔹) Ballot transport aka "harvesting" for family is legal except in AL. (🔹) Which is why you see folks with more than one. (🔹) Which he just repeats. (🔹) And until recently was unrestricted in Az. (🔹) So the undated report of it in Yuma means nothing. (🔹) Nobody has found fake ballots anywhere. (🔹) Not one of thousands of "mules" and "healthcare workers" has been found and (🔹) Obviously couldn't be paid off forever. (🔹) The Az Audit hand-counted 2 million ballots and matched them to the databases and found nothing.

(🔹) D'Souza omits that he is a convicted campaign law felon (!) pardoned by Trump... (🔹) and that the Russians helped make this film, leaving in a map of Moscow.

(🔹) BUT HE DOES TRUTHFULLY SAY in his Washington Post interview that his "evidence" wouldn't begin to stand up in court. Meaning... it's WORTHLESS. And points that this is just "a movie" after all. So there's that.

Lights! Chimera! Action!

This entire wad is a chimera - a fantasy built to confirm your belief that Trump was cheated. At last you know how "they" did it! The fact that every single thing here is a lie or a deception won't matter.

For instance, all the video of "mules" at drop-boxes. D'Souza claims he has 1000 HOURS of this, but all we see are three or four clips of people dropping off a ballot. These are run repeatedly from different angles so the narrators can fantasize about what the "mules" must have been thinking. One person takes a selfie; from that comes the theory that pictures were demanded by mules paymasters. Another wears gloves; which is obviously to avoid fingerprints. She tosses those in the trash; clearly as instructed to do. Onlookers do nothing; certainly because they are too shocked to react. Etc.

In all those 1000 hours D'Souza has NONE that shows a person going to more than one box. Which is THE HEART of his mules theory, of course. So he FAKED those scenes with the actor Jacob Hyman, not listed in the film's main credits. And in all that video he has only one person dropping off several ballots. He calls this poor man a "criminal"; but it turns out that the ballots were his family's so perfectly legal. No apology from D'Souza - but he is being sued.

Then there's the cellphone data, which according to Gregg Phillips exactly confirm the theory of mules gathering ballots at non-profit organizations and distributing them around the city. The fact that locating someone AT a dropbox is impossible means nothing. And of course that data won't be released and the analyses can't be verified. And Gregg is responsible for the enormous lie that millions of illegals voted in 2016. His word here is equally worthless. And btw CRUCIAL to the film's claims.

Then there's the "non-profits" such as nursing homes, shelters, community centers, 4H homes etc. Thousands of staff there apparently coerced or tricked hundreds of thousands of residents to vote for Biden, then fed these ballots into the mules system. Strangely, none of these people or their victims or the mules have come forward or been found in all this time.

D'Souza doesn't leave it at tha. Every line of the script and every reaction is crafted to further the deception. And being professional work is very persuasive... especially to those who want desperately to believe. So we see people claiming that it's "irrefutable evidence of massive fraud".

A chimera - created from nothing but tearing our nation apart. That's the real crime here.

Sleight of Hand

The film appears to prove that batches of ballots were dropped into ballot boxes. No evidence if offered about the contents of those votes. We never see the actual ballots. They might just as well have been for Trump as for Biden.

Plus, if those ballots actually were illegitimate, that calls into question not only the Presidential vote but ALL the votes all the way down the ballot. If the votes were fraudulant, then no Senator or Representative or Governor elected in 2020 has been eleced legitimately. And why only the swing states??? Think about it.

Truth revealed: clowns control the elections

Finally someone exposed the truth about killer clowns from outer space controlling the election process. Never before has someone gone into so much factual detail and exposed so many never before told secrets about how the government is ultimately controlled by these killer clowns who came from outer space in the 1980's (there's another documentary about that of you look it up). And they aren't costumed clowns either, that is how they are born, with red noses and rainbow hair and giant feet etc.

The scary part is that not only do these clowns destroy fair elections, but they erect circus tents that ultimately trap well meaning citizens attempting to vote and send them into outer space! Mars? Jupiter? Pluto?

Only the Dark Lord Himself in Palm Beach knows the truth. That's why he needs to hide Top Secret and Highly Classified government documents in his manse. Those documents expose more truths, including the fact that consuming buttered popcorn causes people to vote for democrats! And it's obviously because of the long history between democrats and Hollywood, buttered popcorn is the link. Finally someone makes the connection in this documentary.

This documentary is all very factual and thoroughly detailed. The only chance for hope is for everyone to stop eating buttered popcorn and to avoid circus tents, or they will become kidnapped by the clowns and shot into space forevermore. We must all serve the Dark Lord by doing everything he commands, because only he can make America great again. This documentary sums up everything you need to know about how Washington really works and why there is little time left to save America.

Most 10-star reviewers didn't really watch this

And neither did most folks rating it 10 stars. They couldn't have. Because from the get-go it's an ultra-biased hack job that just makes up a story as it goes along, and never proves a bit of it. The surveillance vids of drop boxes just show ordinary people dropping off a ballot. That's all. The hooded guy sneaking around with a backpack and no timestamps on his video is obviously a fake. And all the cellphone data we hear about is never shown. Except for demo screens that flash by which it turns out have wrong drop box locations, and with one in Russia for chrissake. Then there's how the zillion ballots they've dreamed up for their imaginary mules must have come from 501c3 organizations like nursing homes. Sure, 400 thousand seniors voted for Biden. As if. Oh wait they were tricked into doing it? So why haven't we heard about that? It's all beyond belief, and the actors pretending to believe it act like puppets. Which I guess they are.

Why we have films like this

This film essentially concocts a spy-movie plot, finds video clips that seem to support bits and pieces of that, and whips it into a gigantic conspiracy theory. And presents that to the viewer as "proven".

Look at the faked multi-dropbox scenes. Look at the faked dropbox screens (one in Moscow). Look at the unverified cellphone pattern charts. Look at the undated and therefore worthless whistleblower scene. Look at the innocent voters simply being called "criminals" by the panel! Listen to the unsupported fantasizing about "non-profits" victimizing hundreds of thousands of people.

Why do we have films like this? Late last year, when asked by an associate why he keeps pushing the Steal, Trump said: "It keeps my base motivated, and will help Republicans win".

So people like D'Souza and Phillips here are in demand. They can knock out conspiracy theory films like this on command, convincing countless people that their national election was stolen.

Makes you think stuff is wrong - until you DO think

Cleverly staged to mask the fact that there's NO actual evidence! Nothing illegal is actually stated for Arizona. The people going to drop boxes aren't doing anything wrong. The one guy driving around with a bag of ballots is an actor. There are no verifications anywhere of the geotracking work. The scenes about non-profits is just what they "might" be doing... and are ridiculous. When you take all those out - there's nothing left.

Whaaat??

So what are they telling us? The Arizona woman doesn't actually say that anything criminal happened. Ballot transport there was legal until recently and no dates are mentioned, go figure. The camera videos are nothing even though the speaker says it's all suspicious. He says the geo tracking is suspicious too but they never follow up with anybody real. Just suspicion, suspicion, suspicion without proof. And lots of drama acting. What they said about them solving murders turns out to be a lie. I think it's all a lie.

Censored

I agree with the authors that the evidence presented in the film shows that widespread, coordinated voter fraud in the 2020 election did occur. For some reason, watching ballots stuffed into boxes is more convincing than believing ridiculous tales about Russian collusion. The film makes you think about what else might have been rigged in the land of the free and even more importantly, what else is going to be rigged next.

I would like to say more but the last time I did so they deleted my review. The censorship here is so tight that I would not be surprised if they pulled this review as well.

Irrefutably irrefutable - to the irredeemably deluded

Trumpers love to call baseless claims of election fraud "irrefutable". The less basis, the more irrefutable. You see the same here. Out of his ballyhooed 4 million minutes of dropbox video, D'Souza only shows a few single people dropping single ballots into a single box. Except for one person - more on him below.

So he chose several clips which could be handwaved into looking "suspicious" and the cast tries desperately to do that.

-- A couple folks bring only one ballot but have to deal with one that falls out of the box... so these are spoken of as having brought several.

-- Kinda shaky so "let's look at another mule"... This one tosses her gloves in the trash BUT doesn't first look around for the bin. So she's obviously a hardened criminal who had cased the joint earlier and slyly planned her (single) ballot drop far in advance... unaware that she could simply have mailed it in to avoid the video cameras.

-- When government workers empty the box we are told sadly "Look at that... so many ballots" - as if they're all somehow fake!

The deception and absurdity abounds. The ONLY video D'Souza has of someone dropping off more than one ballot is a man legally bringing in all of them for his family. D'Souza tells us that we are watching a crime in progress and that those are "fraudulent ballots". A total lie.

Not having ANY videos of multiple ballots dropped at multiple boxes, D'Souza has an actor do that! Complete with hoodie and frightened expression, and spilling "ballots" out of his backpack as he "stuffs" them into boxes. So we'll be sure to get the idea.

Having all this irrefutable (baseless) evidence of mulery, D'Souza simply multiplies the mules we (didn't) see by the number of ballots they (weren't) carrying and the number of boxes they (didn't) go to, and finds there were hundreds of thousands!

He has to invent a source for all of these: non-profit community shelters and 4H homes bamboozling hundreds of thousands of their residents!

Nothing is too spectacularly absurd for him to say. He "proves" this by claiming that cellphone data has shown that thousands of people (the mules, remember) not only were near those places but also went near a dropbox! Of course nobody can see his analysis... just take his word for it.

All this irrefutable evidence is the more irrefutable because it rests on the word of a convicted election campaign fraud felon: D'Souza. Whom Donald Trump pardoned btw.

So as promised: irrefutably irrefutable. Deny that, you deniers! America, we have a problem!

You believe in using cellphone tracking for January 6th investigation.

Idiots who talk out of both sides of their mouth should have to take a test before reviewing anything. When people were prosecuted for their role in January 6th by using cellphone tracking you were all for it. Now the same technology is used to show clear evidence of cheating in an election and you can't believe the data. So if you come across a review that starts in on the technology being unreliable stop reading immediately or some of their dumbness might rub off on you. People hate President Trump so much that it's all they can see or think of, and it distorts reality for them. Even though President Biden clearly shouldn't be president I want him to succeed. Because when he succeeds I succeed with him.

Super Spreader of the Stupid Sickness

This package of lies was created solely to spread Trump's Stolen Election Big Lie. The falsehood that enabled him to return from the grave with a death-grip on the GOP. It's a web of deception, misinformation, disinformation, hand-waving, and chicanery.

And always stupidly so. None of the fantasy "mules" are even shown. Nobody visits more than one box - except the uncredited actor. ONE person drops off more than one ballot - legally. Nobody is connected with cellphone data. No such data is shown or was ever produced. No "crimes were solved". All the "data" screens and maps are mock-ups. Zero evidence of the supposed massive fraud in nursing homes. And all the producers later admitted that it proved nothing.

It's just lies, and lies, and lies - because there's no downside to doing that! In fact it brings in $millions AND convinces Trump's base that our entire election system is broken... so he should just be dictator.

The film is dissected and debunked in many places, but a prime source is Paola Poot Dibou. Search on You T ube for her name. She points out, among many other things, that EVERY SINGLE NUMBER IS FALSE. On T witter she has an almost frame-by-frame debunk.

It's a huge hoax from beginning to end, created by a professional in deception and himself a convicted election crime felon. A giant political crime against our nation.

My conclusion is - D'Souza thinks we're fools

This film says there were 400,000 muled ballots. Which were actually valid signed ballots from real people but carried to drop boxes by thousands of mules - instead of being mailed, they don't say why. Which they say makes them illegal votes, which is flat wrong because they're still valid and from that real person. And nothing on why none of these thousands of mules have been heard from. Or the thousands of people working in the places they got the ballots. Which they say are like nursing homes and community shelters, who somehow tricked hundreds of thousands of residents into voting for Biden. I watched the whole thing, kinda, but quit trying to believe it even before I quit trying to understand it. Neither one is exactly easy.

Salem Media Group said in the statement that it has "removed the film from Salem's platforms, and there will be no future distribution of the film or the book by Salem."

By KATE BRUMBACK Updated 7:55 PM CDT, May 31, 2024

ATLANTA (AP) - The publisher of "2000 Mules" issued a statement Friday apologizing to a Georgia man who was shown in the film and falsely accused of ballot fraud during the 2020 election.

The widely debunked film includes surveillance video showing Mark Andrews, his face blurred, putting five ballots in a drop box in Lawrenceville, an Atlanta suburb, as a voiceover by conservative pundit and filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza says: "What you are seeing is a crime. These are fraudulent votes."

Salem Media Group said in the statement that it has "removed the film from Salem's platforms, and there will be no future distribution of the film or the book by Salem."

"It was never our intent that the publication of the 2000 Mules film and book would harm Mr. Andrews. We apologize for the hurt the inclusion of Mr. Andrews' image in the movie, book, and promotional materials have caused Mr. Andrews and his family," the statement said.

A state investigation found that Andrews was dropping off ballots for himself, his wife and their three adult children, who all lived at the same address. That is legal in Georgia, and an investigator said there was no evidence of wrongdoing by Andrews.

The film uses research from True the Vote, a Texas-based nonprofit, and suggests that ballot "mules" aligned with Democrats were paid to illegally collect and deliver ballots in Georgia and four other closely watched states. An Associated Press analysis found that it is based on faulty assumptions, anonymous accounts and improper analysis of cellphone location data.

Salem said it "relied on representations by Dinesh D'Souza and True the Vote, Inc. ("TTV") that the individuals depicted in the videos provided to us by TTV, including Mr. Andrews, illegally deposited ballots."

Lawyers for D'Souza and True the Vote did not immediately respond to emails Friday afternoon seeking comment on Salem's statement.

Andrews filed a federal lawsuit in October 2022 against D'Souza, True the Vote and Salem. The case is ongoing, and representatives for Salem and for Andrews' legal team did not immediately respond to emails asking whether the statement came as a result of the lawsuit.

Like a scorpion... this creeps up, with poison in its tail

Watch talking heads seem shocked at all the fraud (not) revealed. And amazed that this could (not) happen. Hear them mock regular people dropping off ballots. See them scowl at staged ballot drops, and bogus drop-box maps (of Moscow... oops). Finally, catch D'Souza solemnly conclude that the US is a "criminal cartel". Who was he trying to please with that line?

Excellent, insightful, poignant

As the truth comes out about the massive fraud the Democratic Party instigated this movie puts it all in perspective.

It should be played in all schools so we can teach our children the dangers of a one party government. We see in a logical fashion how Biden cheated. How the Dems are corrupted by power.

Trump is the best thing that happened to America. Trump is the best thing that happened to America.

Trump is the best thing that happened to America.

Well documented voter fraud

If you don't believe the recent Twitter releases then don't waste your time on this movie. No amount of evidence will open your closed mind.

The rest of you will find it fascinating. Using cell phone tracking from True The Vote, Dinesh lays out a compelling case for organized voter fraud complete with videos of ballots being dropped off at 3 AM by mules who wore gloves after an article detailing how other mules were arrested due to fingerprints on the ballots. Prior to this article none of the mules used gloves.

Watch it for yourself or read the book. The book does a great job of refuting the arguments against the movie in the other reviews.

Keep an open mind, and look at the evidence.

The Three Deceivers vs. Your Brain - a horror flick

D'Souza, who shows meaningless (and staged) video clips was convicted of election funding fraud. He sees no downside in more lies, and literally everything he says here is deceptive.

Phillips, who simply alleges (!) that his geolocation data shows what D'Souza wants (!!), is a public liar who among other things also claimed that millions of illegals voted in 2016. He too deceives in every sentence. Again - no downside.

Engelbrecht may regret that her True The Vote organization / info has been so perverted. She waffles that lies in the film were "statements lacking full context". For example, that her geo data "solved a murder". But she does nod her head at this and every other outright deceit in the film.

Stay strong and hope for a sequel: "The Three Deceivers Unmasked"

And watch for the prequel: "The Three Deceivers in Moscow"

Ridiculous make-believe needs 9 or 10 on Dumb Scale

We're supposed to just BELIEVE that thousands of people carried hundreds of thousands of maybe fake ballots or maybe real ballots to drop boxes.

NO EVIDENCE. Just a few shots of regular people dropping off one or two ballots which the film repeats about 10 times, and an actor driving around at night.

Oh you didn't know it's an actor? Maybe because he's not listed.

And the cell phone location info it's all SUPPOSEDLY based on just disappeared!! And is stupid anyway since lots of people go to libraries, court houses etc.

And these thousands of low life mules are being paid off FOREVER, since none have been heard from. Sure.

Again no evidence !! At all !! None !!

And like everyone says those ballots could just be mailed. And fake ballots won't be counted. But this ridiculous make-believe ignores that too !!

How dumb do you have to be to swallow this? 9 or 10? Well, look at all the 9 and 10 star reviews here - that's how dumb.

Let's count the falsehoods & crazy claims

That Joe Biden bragged about creating fraud (false)

That the people dropping off ballots are criminals (no evidence)

That anyone went to more than one drop box (staged falsehood)

That the geolocation data was correctly analyzed (no evidence)

That this geolocation data led to arrests for murder (false)

That this geolocation data shows people near non-profits (legal)

That this geolocation data could show people at a box (false)

That thousands of mules were sent to drop boxes (no evidence)

That tens of thousands of nursing home etc patients were coerced (absurd)

That thousands of non-profit staff conspired to do this (absurd)

That ballots were illegally transported in Yuma (was legal)

That the drop box maps shown are accurate (false)

That the ballots could be fakes and still be counted (false)

How many was that? And they're only the most brazen. In fact every word and reaction in the script is crafted to deceive or mislead.

And of course those HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of VALID (!) ballots that those THOUSANDS of mules are taking to HUNDREDS of drop boxes monitored by video cameras... could just be dropped in public MAILBOXES.

Guess the criminal masterminds who run our shelters and nursing and 4H homes and community centers etc didn't think of that.

Worthless waste of time

Yeah, sure, I am a lefty, but I was prepared to look at the other side of the argument. This expose is full of holes and none of the "evidence" would stand up in a court of law in front of a judge under oath. For the very few here who may be curious, just type "fact check 2000 mules" into Google and do your own research.
