First, who the hell was that who swore Biden in? She wasn't even a member of SCOTUS, much less the Chief Justice. Does the Chief Justice usually do it just because of precedent or is there something somewhere that says he or another member of SCOTUS has to do it?
Second, regarding the rumors that the broadcast was shown a full 8 hours early in Spain (multiple reports of that so far it seems), I will say this: I was stunned when I turned on my feed to it and it wasn't yet noon and Biden was already delivering his speech post swearing in. I remember thinking at the time how odd that was that they had done it early, even if it was just by a few minutes.
Thoughts on those?
the patent shows that the federal government atleast attempted to secure the vote by using the us postal service which makes a lot of sense as it is local to every single community across the country. im not advocating one way or another for or against the use of blockchain tech, I am saying u cannot keep a persons identity on file with their vote so using block chain technically would keep all info of the voter except name and still document the transaction like how bitcoin and ethereal currency works. I'm not an expert on block chain but am familiar enough to understand the implications if this patent is real
