Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "There's An App For That"

From Mike Flugennock, DC's anarchist cartoonist:

"There's An App For That"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=2921

Well, that sure was some skanky-ass to-do we had out in Iowa this week. Sanders was looking really good to take it, but then they suddenly "delayed" the results because of an issue with a skanky vote-reporting app — a skanky app coded by a skanky company operated by old Hillary campaign stooges and which has also worked for the Buttigieg campaign.

I'm so not into the tinfoil hat thing, but when the DNC announces their new "troll hunting" campaign against "disinformation" on the Internet, and then their vote-tracking app built by a bunch of Hillary hacks implodes as Mayo Pete declares himself the winner — kinda like that Guaido guy — you just can't help thinking something is really, really stanky around here.

You couldn't expect less from an outfit called Shadow, Inc. Look out, Nevada.
