Unmasking the Plot: The Seven-Part Plan to Overturn the 2020 Election

In the months following the 2020 presidential election, investigators uncovered a chilling and methodical seven-part plan aimed at subverting the democratic process.

The plan began with the relentless spread of false claims about widespread election fraud, creating a foundation of distrust among the public. Concurrently, state officials and legislators were pressured to reject certified results and appoint alternate electors, an illegal and unconstitutional maneuver designed to sow confusion during the electoral count.

Central to the scheme was the creation of fake elector slates, fraudulent documents purporting to represent legitimate state votes. These were intended to be submitted to Congress to justify objections and delay certification. The plan also involved inciting violence on January 6 to disrupt the joint session and create a crisis that could be exploited politically.

Legal breakthroughs were crucial in exposing this conspiracy. The crime-fraud exception, a legal principle allowing investigators to bypass attorney-client privilege when communications further a crime or fraud, enabled access to key documents and communications. Witnesses provided detailed testimonies, illuminating the coordination and intent behind the plot.

Public hearings brought these revelations to light, educating the nation about the magnitude of the threat to democracy. Making fictions the basis of congressional action gave them flesh, turning baseless lies into dangerous realities. This phase of evidence gathering was essential for accountability and healing.

Understanding this plan is vital to recognizing the vulnerabilities in democratic systems and the need for vigilance against similar threats in the future.
