1. It's time to explain exactly what happened on Election Day 2024 to stop the steal.
This will be a very long thread.
It involves quite a few people over 4 years.
A dozen sources.
We must begin just after the rigged 2020 election.
2. Let's begin the story in December 2020.
Why? Because President Trump wanted election fraud investigated.
He told his team to hire someone to discover the truth about the voting machines.
Multiple sources tell me an ex-CIA investigator was hired for the job.
3. That investigator reported that claims of election fraud were overblown.
Some DOJ lawyers also wanted election fraud investigated.
Those efforts were blocked by AG Bill Barr's staff including Barr's CoS Will Levi.
Levi threatened to quit if any cases were launched.
4. Also in Dec 2020, a group of NatSec analysts briefed the White House that enough evidence of election fraud existed to launch a full USG investigation.
In Jan 2021, several GOP Senators were briefed as well.
Neither the WH nor the Senators authorized the investigation.
5. A few people tried to alert President Trump about the NatSec analyst briefing and the need for a full investigation in late 2020 but those efforts were blocked by WH Counsel Pat Cipollone - according to two sources.
Cipollone joined Bill Barr's law firm on Jan 17, 2024.
6. Chris Krebs, the head of a small agency called CISA (which is inside DHS) sent out a press release in late 2020 claiming the 2020 election “...was the most secure in American history."
Krebs was not a cybersecurity expert.
Who hired him?
The head of DHS: Chad Wolf.
7. Krebs was hired because he was Chad Wolf's close friend. He worked at CISA coordinating with leftwing orgs like Democracy Works to "prepare" for the 2020 election.
Trump fired Krebs a week after he dismissed Defense Secretary Mark Esper.
