From postman to famous whistleblower. Richard Hopkins (32) of Erie in the US state of Pennsylvania is making headlines in the United States. It is not surprising! The man finally claims that the election was rigged.
His boss instructed him and his colleagues to roll back the ballots sent after Election Day to falsify the result. You have to know: Due to the corona pandemic, many Americans have never voted by mail. A huge logistical effort. Not all votes have been counted.
Now Donald Trump (74) and his followers intuit a plot. The current president of the United States sees himself as the real winner, he does not want and cannot admit that Joe Biden (77) should be his successor. So far there is no evidence that the election has been misled. Meanwhile, the lieutenant governor of Texas has even offered a huge reward for the tracks. Up to a million dollars!
Trump calls Hopkins a “brave patriot”
Even without solid evidence: Trump and his supporters never tire of questioning the election over and over again. And that’s where someone like Richard Hopkins comes in handy. Especially since the postman even repeated his accusations in an affidavit. Very officially. With signature and all the trimmings.
And Trump celebrated Hopkins for that. He wrote on Twitter: “A brave patriot. More and more people are stepping forward to expose this rigged choice! “
The authorities took the alleged complainant’s statements seriously. The Attorney General’s office investigated the matter. Without result! And the postman turned around. He confessed that he had just made it up. Again, in an affidavit, he officially reversed his false claims, the Washington Post reported.
Hopkins’ boss also had a say in the article. Rob Weisenbach described the allegations that he had asked his employees to manipulate the vote by mail as unfounded and “100 percent wrong.” He also noted that Hopkins had been reprimanded several times recently. Why it was not mentioned. But he made it clear again: “The Erie Post Office has not rolled back any ballots.”
“He did not revoke my statements”
But that is not the end of the matter. Now Hopkins spoke in a video. He contradicted the Washington Post report. “I am here to say that I have not retracted what I said. That did not happen. It was not so “.
He was crushed by the officers. It is true. But the authorities misled him. Then Trump got back in touch, of course via Twitter. He stands behind the postman and lunges at the newspaper. “Stick to the truth.”
There is a lot of rumor about rumors of fraud in the US There is still no evidence that the US elections were rigged. (hmh)
