Letter SOS Benson To Committee January 6th With Attachment

January 26, 2022
The Honorable Bennie G. Thompson, Chair

Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United State Capitol
2466 Rayburn HOB
Washington, DC 20515
Dear Chairman Thompson and members of the Select Committee:
I am writing to share information concerning attempts to overturn the will of the voters in Michigan and
across the nation in the 2020 presidential election. Some of the information surfaced recently and
connects to information that was public in Michigan in December of 2020, but may not be known by the
Committee.
First, last week media published an audio recording of the co-chair of the Michigan Republican Party
saying that the Trump campaign asked her and others to carry out the scheme to circumvent the
electoral process prescribed by law. i She was among those who signed the fake elector document that
was sent to the National Archives.
Second, the scheme was attempted in Michigan shortly after the former president’s personal attorney,
Rudy Giuliani, and Trump Campaign attorney Jenna Ellis testified Dec. 2, 2020, before a committee of
our state Legislature and spread misinformation about the election. ii Ellis also served as special counsel
to the Thomas More Society, iii whose Amistad Project tried to get the illegitimate electors into our state
Capitol on Dec. 14. iv
Finally, the recently published Dec. 16, 2020, draft presidential executive order to seize vote tabulation
machines cites a debunked report from a state lawsuit ostensibly over a local marijuana ballot initiative
in Antrim County, Michigan. v At the time we were aware that then-unknown individuals had flown to
Antrim to generate the report, and that Trump Campaign attorney Ellis told media that these were
members of her team. vi Further, on Dec 13, 2020, although the report was ordered under seal by the
judge, it was apparently provided to the former president’s former attorney Sidney Powell, vii despite the
fact that it was not allowed by the judge to be released until Dec. 14. viii What remains unclear is the
extent to which the authors of the false report drafted it to lay the groundwork for the former
president’s executive order, and if they did so at his direction or the direction of his campaign.
Thank you for your continued work reviewing the circumstances across the country that led to the Jan. 6
attack on our capitol and our democracy. I provide this information about Michigan to assist you in your
pursuit of justice, as it is my firm belief that all Americans have a patriotic duty to our democracy to
support your work.

Re: In Re: Timothy King, Marian Sheridan, John Haggard, Charles Ritchard,
James Hooper, and Daren Rubingh, Petitioners’ Emergency Petition Under
Rule 20 for Extraordinary Writ of Mandamus
Dear Justice Roberts, Justice Thomas, Justice Breyer, Justice Alito, Justice
Sotomayor, Justice Kagan, Justice Gorsuch, Justice Kavanaugh, and Justice Coney
Barrett:
Petitioners Timothy King, Marian Sheridan, John Haggard, Charles Ritchard,

James Hooper, and Daren Rubingh seek to file under seal recently obtained evidence
related to Petitioners’ Emergency Petition Under Rule 20 for Extraordinary Writ of
Mandamus. The new evidence has not yet been made part of the record.
Pursuant to United States Supreme Court Rule 32, Petitioners, by and through
counsel, Sidney Powell, Howard Kleinhendler, Stefanie Lambert Junttila and
Gregory Rohl, hereby notify this Honorable Court of two batches of recently obtained
evidence, and have served this letter on all parties.
The first tranche of new evidence is a forensic analysis report—prepared under
a protective order—regarding voting machines, voting materials, and voting data
used in Antrim County, Michigan. This report also implicates voting issues in the
state of Georgia. An Order to conduct the examination and to protect the process was
issued on December 4, 2020, by the Honorable Kevin A. Elsenheimer, Case No.
2020009238CZ. An expert analysis involving Dominion Voting Systems was
conducted with permission of the Court. Only nine days have lapsed since entry of
the Court Order. The expert evaluation and the expert analysis are still being
conducted. This initial report has been prepared as expeditiously as possible to be
lodged here and to be filed in camera with the Court in Michigan. This evidence could
not have been obtained by the Plaintiff’s earlier than December 13, 2020.
The results of the expert analysis provide new information and evidence as it
relates to the November 3, 2020 election in Antrim County, Michigan, and by logical
extrapolation, explains voting anomalies and evinces fraud throughout the Dominion
Voting Systems. The new evidence specifically provides additional and conclusive
evidence of election fraud and irregularities pertaining to the November 3, 2020
election. The final “certified tally” in Michigan reflected a slim margin of Mr. Biden’s
vote count to be 146,000 over that of President Trump, with just under 10 million
people living in Michigan.
The newly obtained evidence from Antrim County, Michigan is directly

relevant to Petitioners’ Emergency Petition Under Rule 20 for Extraordinary Writ of
Mandamus before this Honorable Court because the new evidence corroborates and
supports the existing record of evidence proving massive election fraud, multiple
violations of the Michigan Election Code, federal statutes, and the Equal Protection
Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
In addition to new expert evidence from Antrim County, the Petitioners have
also been provided with new affidavits from two additional forensic experts that are
not subject to a protective order but evince international interference in the election.
The new affidavits are from Military Intelligence electronic intelligence

analysts and state that the SSL certificates from dominionvoting.com were used
multiple times from Canada, Serbia, and the United States. Images are attached to
the affidavits, demonstrating that Dominion systems were connected to foreign
systems around the globe. Additionally, the affidavits detail evidence demonstrating
that Sequoia Capital seeded or funded Dominion Voting Systems and HSBC Toronto
acquired from Dominion Voting Systems eighteen patents representing intellectual
property of Dominion Voting Systems. These patents all pertain to direct interfaces
with the U.S. election process by means of ballots, systems, and machines. This
affidavit further reveals that a Toronto-based Chinese bank (HSBC) secures the
intellectual patents pertaining to direct access to the U.S. election systems and
2
equipment from Dominion Voting Systems. The information revealed in these
affidavits is relevant to Petitioners’ Rule 20 Petition for Extraordinary Writ of
Mandamus to further demonstrate foreign interference in the November 3, 2020
election.
Petitioners seek to file these new affidavits and evidence from Military
electronic intelligence analysts to support and corroborate the existing evidence of
international interference in the November 3, 2020 election.
Petitioners seek to file the new evidence from the forensic examination of the
Michigan machines under seal primarily because of the protective order under which
it was obtained and is being reported to that Court by other members of our team.
It also has significant implications for national security. There is hearing in the
Michigan court scheduled for 8:30 a.m. Monday, December 14, 2020, on the Plaintiffs’
motion to unseal the report.
We respectfully request the new evidence be lodged pursuant to Supreme

Court Rule 32.
This evidence is crucial to a just resolution of the cases pending before this
Court. The Petitioners stand ready to provide the evidence to the Court under the
procedures it deems appropriate.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Howard Kleinhendler
