On Tuesday morning, Formella stepped up to a podium and announced the calls came from Life Corporation and Walter Monk of Texas.
Walter Monk and Life Corporation, a Texas-based company, have been identified as the source of fake robocalls that impersonated President Biden, according to New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella[1][3][4][5][6]. The robocalls, which used a voice that sounded like President Biden’s, were intended to discourage voting[4]. The calls were traced back to Life Corporation and Walter Monk using ‘tracebacks’ through an entity known as the Industry Traceback Group[1].
Life Corporation is owned by Walter Monk[4][5]. A subsidiary of Life Corporation, Voice Broadcasting Corp., which identifies Mr. Monk as its founder, has received numerous payments from the Republican Party’s state committee in Delaware, as well as payments from congressional candidates in both parties[4].
The calls were routed through a provider called Lingo Telecom[4][5][6]. After being informed that the calls were being investigated, Lingo Telecom suspended services to Life Corporation[1][5][6].
The Attorney General’s office has opened a criminal investigation and issued a cease-and-desist order to Life Corporation[1][4][5][6]. No charges have been filed against Walter Monk as of the current date, but the investigation is ongoing[5].

They issued cease and desist orders to the company.
How about you fucking raid the company and shove the big dick of the law up his ass? I’m so fucking tired of these republican scumbags getting a pass or being treated with kid gloves.
Yeah, where’s the swat team breaking down these fucks’ doors and murdering people in their beds? I mean, they know how to do that, and they’ve got plenty of experience.
I think the failure was that nobody claimed there were black people working there. That would have brought out the violence.
