Trump ally hires election app developer in country he called 'profoundly corrupt': report

The far-right group Turning Points USA commissioned an election app to help it get out the vote for Trump, but it appears it was crafted in a country TPUSA's chief said was rampant with corruption.

The Associated Pressreported Thursday that Charlie Kirk's group is working to get out the vote in Wisconsin and Arizona, but NOTUS discovered that Kirk entrusted the effort to Ukrainians.

While the AP notes a close relationship between Kirk and the app company Superfeed, NOTUS said its report missed Kirk trashing the company's home country.

"Ukraine is profoundly corrupt, and we have no idea where the money goes and who is siphoning it off. To top it all off, Ukraine’s war goals include seizing regions like Crimea, regions that are ethnically Russian, speak Russian, and want to be part of Russia," Kirk wrote on X last week.

“Superfeed Technology reached out to us to gather a team of software developers to build an online platform from scratch,” NOTUS found on nCube’s website, who is a self-described “offshore software development” firm and “reputable company on the Ukrainian market.”

The researchers discovered that the original Superfeed CEO, David Torres, has many positive reviews on LinkedIn for Ukrainian software developers.

"nCube’s web page indicates its relationship with Superfeed dates back to 2018 and continues to today," said the report.

Superfeed has also provided a platform for Republicans in Michigan, Nevada, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Yakima County, Washington, the report explained. Records show that they also scored a $110,000 contract for "PAC digital consulting" from Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund.

Each of the states is trying to elect someone who has suggested he wants to stop funding to Ukraine as they fight against Russian invasion.
