What is known about CrowdStrike involvement in politics and elections?
Trump Conspiracy Theory: During the 2020 US presidential election, conspiracy theories emerged claiming that CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity firm, had fabricated evidence of Russian interference in the election. The company was accused of being biased against Donald Trump and his campaign. This controversy resurfaced in July 2024, with social media platforms like Facebook and X seeing renewed criticism about CrowdStrike’s role in the 2016 election.

Partisan Allegations: Some critics have accused CrowdStrike of having political leanings, particularly during the 2016 US presidential election, when the company attributed the DNC hack to Russian intelligence services. This attribution was disputed by then-President Donald Trump and his supporters, who claimed that CrowdStrike was biased against Trump and his campaign. CrowdStrike’s CEO testified that the firm had no specific evidence to support the claim of a Russian intelligence service hack, which testimony was classified by Congressman Adam Schiff and then declassified when Republicans gained control of the House of Representatives.

What kind of idiot buys a ticket with layover in the USSR when Pukin is actively taking hostages to exchange for that FSB assasin captured in Germany? 🤡

On July 25th, 2019 —two years into Trump’s presidency and almost five years ago to the day— President Trump held his fateful call with Ukraine’s not-so-funny President Zelensky. The call is best known for Trump’s request for Zelensky to investigate the Biden crime family’s crooked business in that corrupt country, which caused the deep state to freak out and kick off the historic impeachment lawfare.

But that wasn’t all. Behold, yesterday’s Economic Times’ headline, already connecting the dots:

Why did Trump bring up CrowdStrike in his 2019 call with Ukraine's Zelenskyy?

That’s right. Trump not only asked Zelensky about Biden’s business in Ukraine, but he also asked about CrowdStrike’s secret file servers which were located there, secured from meddling US law enforcement. ...

And so, it begins. Yesterday, as if on cue, Elon Musk announced his companies were ditching the “global security” service, widely reported in media like Bloomberg.

CrowdStrike’s software is everywhere. Including embedded in many U.S. voting systems. Arizona’s Maricopa County, which is amidst early voting, reported polling place outages related to the CrowdStrike bungle, raising metric tons of questions about election security, internet connectedness, and so forth:




... Let’s recap the timeline:

— July 25th, 2019: Trump calls Zelensky to ask about CrowdStrike.

— December 18th, 2019: first articles of impeachment filed.

— (2020-2024: The Wilderness Years.)

— July 18th, 2024: Trump accepts the Republican nomination (which means he can now legally talk to foreign leaders).

— July 19th, 2024: CrowdStrike makes a mistake that could end the company.

— July 19th, 2024: Trump calls Zelensky again. Kyiv boosts Trump.

Those are all established facts. Zelensky, Ukraine, and CrowdStrike bookend the timeline. It seems like Trump is picking up right where he left off, with a nail in CrowdStrike’s forehead framing the conversation. I’m not speculating about anything. But it is unlikely, to say the least, that this series of coincidences could possibly be unrelated.

The only reason Linux and Mac weren't affected is because Crowdstrike hadn't deployed the shitty update to them yet. This didn't have anything to do with Windows being a vulnerable OS, it was purely on Crowdstrike's colossal failure to QA the sensor update. If the update were deployed to Mac and Linux first, this would be a totally different story.


This is bullshit. Windows got the update first because their forced monopoly gives them the biggest share of the market. Which is why hackers ALWAYS target Microsoft first, go after the most people at once. But if you believe Microsoft is about quality see every other Windows version since NT. Windows is a shit system built on lies, theft, and abuse of copyright law. Haven't used them since XP, and haven't regretted it once...

What kind of idiot only carries US dollars internationally when they've weaponized the currency, while simultaneously tanking it in the US?

I wonder if they were Russians stuck in a US city if you'd see the handouts as common human decency, or treason?

US dollar isn't tanking. And, rest of world doesn't give a fucking shit what the cost of groceries is in the US when deciding to buy USD or not.

I think he had the classic Patnet hissy fit and stormed off. Every conversation ended in WMD, Iraq and Afghanistan. At some point we get it dude, so myself included kind of went after him. Keep living in the past. Don't make the present and future better. Bitch about things that already happened. Don't let it happen again.

He didn't like real talk is all I'll say. I know it's frowned upon to talk about other users, but that was my experience with him. I know Pat had met him before in person. He had some valid points, but kept getting hung up on the past. History is important, but time moves forward. He was stuck in the 2000's.

All those companies that relied on crowdstrike, do not have the internal I.T. infrastructure to manage much on their own, or they are just to big to deal with 10's of thousands of machines to maintain. I worked at a datacenter in the midwest for a few years, and it is amazing how much "cloud based servers" or "Virtual Machines" are in these facilities. We tested patches a week before pushing them out to the users desktops or virtual desktop systems..
Letting someone else do the work is just asking for trouble... especially DEI based hiring procedures... It's just insane... and shit like this will continue to happen. Someone's head will roll on this one. If you want a career in I.T. it will be brutal working in the back office environment... Managers do not say " Good Morning"... they say "BLAH,BLAH,BLAH IS DOWN"!!!

Conspiracy theory time:

Maybe someone knew that Crowdstrike's Ukrainian servers would be used to take voting machines offline Nov 3rd to disrupt the election, and decided to give a little demo first to thwart that.

When Trump was President the Deep State tried to impeach him. They claimed he broke the law because he phoned Zelensky in Ukraine and asked him about Crowdstrike servers based in Ukraine.

When Trump was campaigning for the Presidency there was talk of Hilary Clinton having a private, personal server to send both Govn and personal emails. Many of these emails were leaked by Assange of wikileaks. The democrats used an independent company to ‘prove’ those emails were fake. The intelligence community endorsed that conclusion and then the Russia Gate scandal was born as it was claimed the emails came from Russia and Trump was Putin’s man. The IT security company that said the emails were fake is Crowdstrike.

There is also some concern that Dominion Voting Machines used in US elections including the 2020 Presidential Election have Crowdstrike software installed on them.

Maybe I’ve got 1 or 2 details wrong like the claim was Russia hacked Clinton’s server, gave the emails to Trump and that the emails are genuine.
The broad strokes of the conspiracy are that Crowdstrike serves the deep state in both democrat elections and US Intelligence surveillance.

There’s plenty of information on this thread already, maybe more accurate than my contribution.
Just go back to the start and read through.

This included the unprecedented CrowdStrike global ‘system failure’, which was clearly no ‘coincidence’. Most likely, the event was used to wipe FBI servers of complicity in the Trump hit, particularly since CrowdStrike has powerful links to the FBI—the company’s Chief Security Officer and President of Services is retired FBI Executive Assistant Director Shawn Henry ...
