Mail-in Vote Suppression [1]

A recent podcast by Thom Hartmann interviewing Greg Palast got my attention.
hartmannreport.com/…
Greg, a former forensic economist for government agencies including the US Justice Department, did a deep dive into the statistics of the 2024 election, specifically mail in votes. His conclusion is that voter suppression tactics used by the GOP and “True the Vote” organizations, was successful enough to give the election to tRump. As Steve Bannon promised, “we need to…. contest every (mail-in) ballot.” 2 weeks before the election this threat got personal.
My stepdaughter had her mail-in ballot challenged. She has dual British/ American citizenship, and is registered to vote in my district. The person (I will call her Karen) that initiated the challenge, challenged 4000 other voters in our county in PA, according to the ACLU lawyer who contacted us. It cost $10 to do the challenge paperwork, and she alone challenged 4000 voters! I know where Karen lives, and I doubt she has $40,000 laying around to pay the fees.
So my real question is, who gave Karen the $40,000? Was it deposited into her bank? Was she liable for income tax on the money she received? I bet there were many Karen’s challenging mail-in votes, in blue counties (like ours) throughout the country. She was one of many. This was MASSIVE and COOORDINATED! AND PAID FOR BY SOMEONE!
WHO?
