Election-denying former tech CEO Patrick Byrne is recruiting military veterans and former law enforcement officers to become poll watchers.

The Overstock.com founder announced "One More Mission" on his page hosted by the subscription-based Locals website, in a similar effort to those mounted by Michael Flynn and other Donald Trump allies to send right-wing allies to polling stations looking for evidence of fraud, although critics claim their presence is intimidating to voters.

“We cannot achieve our goals if there are threats or acts of violence," Byrne posted on his announcement. "This movement is a peaceful protest and we do not condone any acts of violence, etc. We already know there will be activists working at the behest of global authoritarians and think tanks to sabotage our movement. Because of this, we must have a zero-tolerance approach to aggressive behaviour and violence.”

3. Yea, lets mix a little bully Testosterone with the vote.

It is the perfect formula for inserting trouble where none exist today.

4. But threatening violence is exactly what this liar is doing

By hiring theses thug cops as intimidatiion tactics. If they don't speak the violence, they will protect those from their own party that do.

Conservatives ALWAYS project!

5. If anyone on Byrne's payroll gets out of line, at least there'll be some deep pockets to sue.
