China Bought Dominion In October — This story hit a nerve. It’s getting “fact checked” by self-proclaimed gatekeepers at Facebook and elsewhere.
Update: “Fact checker” Lead Stories works for PRC-connected tech firm Bytedance.
Update 2: Dominion Machines Internet Connection Proved
Things have evolved and some of the criticism is legitimate. For instance, it is correct to point out that the securities sold by Staple Street Capital went to UBS Securities Co., LLC. This is UBS’ New York affiliate, not the UBS Securities Co., Ltd. that is openly affiliated with the Chinese communist, and which we incorrectly cited as the purchaser.
On the other hand, some of this evolution is in a far more frightening direction. It turns out that three of the board members of USB Securities Co. LLC are Chinese according to NTD.com and Epoch Times.
Two of them, at least, have close ties to the Chinese government.
We think that’s worse. The enemy you see is less dangerous than the one you don’t.
One of the “fact checkers” says that USB Securities didn’t buy Dominion Voting Machines but merely used the $400 million to acquire a partnership in Staple Street Co., Dominion’s owner, a month before the election.
How exactly is that better?
We are not offended by the fact checking. We are offended/angered/frightened, however, that these well-financed media “authorities” are more concerned about this story than the influence the Chinese government has obtained over one of our major voting machine suppliers.
It’s also worth noting that in another serendipitous coincidence, a company controlled by a rabid partisan Democrat acquired in July, voting machine maker Hart InterCivic.
Below, is the original story.
It’s not a theory when you have the documentation. Just saying that for my conspiracy theory fans.
Staple Street Capital III, L.P. sold $400 million in securities to UBS Securities Co., Ltd. as reveled 12:15 today, Dec. 1, by attorney Lin Wood in a cryptic tweet to a link to the sale’s SEC Form D.
The SEC Form D was filed Oct. 8.
Form D is the required notice for companies that have sold securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 under certain conditions.
The filing must be within 15 days of the sale.
Staple Street Capital is the New York-based, private equity firm that acquired Dominion Voting Systems in July 2018.
Dominion voting machines were used in 28 states, Nov. 3.
Many think they could be programmed to flip votes from one candidate to another or delete votes for an undesired candidate.
UBS Securities Co., Ltd. is a Chinese investment bank controlled by the Chinese government.
That’s right, it looks like the Chinese ran our election, at least in a lot of places. Do not concede Mr. President.
I think you are mistaken. First UBS is a Swiss Bank, and secodnly the SEC ticket seems to show that UBS were just facilitating a transfer and not counterparty in the deal. I support Trump. We need to keep things factual in order to win.
UBS is a Swiss bank.
UBS Securities Co., Ltd. is a Chinese bank affiliated with the Swiss bank. The link in the story but here is again: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBS_Securities
re-reading some of these posts from two years ago.. there’s nothing in the SEC filing (copied in the article) that mentions the Chinese UBS subsidiary “UBS Securities Co., LTD”.. it says the counter party to the $400m investment was UBS Securities LLC.. this whole story, sadly is just non-sense. It is possible of course, that the purchaser of this $400m in Staple Street was a Chinese owned company.. but unfortunately, unless UBS shares their private customers information, we will never know who really made that $400m investment.. and based on the history of Swiss Banks.. they will not ever reveal this..
It turns out that three of the board members of USB Securities Co. LLC are Chinese according to NTD.com.
Two of them, at least, have close ties to the Chinese government.

Sorry but the SEC filing does not show what you are claiming it does. There is no mention of UBS Securities Co Ltd, but rather UBS Securities LLC. What they are purchasing in this transaction is a partnership interest in Staple Street Capital III LP, they are making a hedge fund investment. This is a stretch unfortunately, wish it were true.
Look at the contract for USB Securities, the address is listed below it.
Click on Google Street View, you see the logo on the building. It’s the logo for UBS Securities CO, Ltd
It is 100% the Chinese company, you’re wrong here.
Thank you
I agree
UBS SECURITIES (UNION BANK OF SWITZERLAND) IS OWNED BY UBS GROUP AG EVEN HAS THE SWISS BANKS LOGO …..HSBC HOLDINGS PLC IS A UK COMPANY , ANY LINK IS TO HONG KONG NOT CHINA
LOL you do realize that China claims Hong Kong, right?
I think that sounds right because the Dominion was sending our votes to Switzerland to be counted I heard that before the election, I said that’s craziness that should never be happening.
UBS is a Swiss Bank. UBS Securities is a Chinese firm associated. Assuming they used UBS on purpose for the very reason of being assumed a clean company.
@ Nick Collier: From their website:
UBS Securities Co. Limited (“UBSS”) is the first foreign-invested fully-licensed securities firm in China. First foreign-invested fully-licensed securities firm in China, 51% owned by UBS AG. Adhering to its principle of “client-focus”, UBSS leverages on UBS AG’s strong strength in capital, experience, research, technology, and risk management, to provide individuals, corporates, institutional clients, and qualified foreign institutional investors (QFII) with a variety of financial products and services based on proper risk management.
So if you know China – and the Chinese have 49% …
But moreover if UBS Sec Co was facilitating the transfer who was the buyer?
The original program designer for all this is Jeffrey Dean. He is a convicted felon. He worked for the drug cartels in the 90s embezzlement. Then he was brought in to design a program. It was used to keep Hugo Chavez in power. Hillary Clinton acted just like Biden is now. Guaranteed election win. Now it’s out. Look him up.
Thank you!
