You're about to see 6 years worth of receipts 💅 💥

Plotting An Insurrection on Zoom

Oct. 21, 2020 Lisa Fithian hosted a 2.5 hour training session along side Patrick Young, of ShutDown DC. It centered around preplanning an insurrection during the 2020 election timeline, "January Dates, Electoral College Dates", in which taking over government buildings was a central focus.

Fithian talked about taking over government buildings:

"Trump's gotta go. In order to achieve what they did, they knew they had to take over important government buildings.”

"But, like, there may be some people that are willing to break the windows to get into the government buildings. Like, if that's what we need to do, then we shouldn't fight about that. Let's do that. Let's take over the buildings."

Steps For Carrying Out The Plan:

Fithian discusses using trained anchor affinity groups and forming flying squads to absorb unknowing protestors in the streets and move them towards the government building they plan to take over.

Taking Over Inside Spaces:

Fithian shows images of the WI Capitol in which protesters took it over and staged protests inside the building.

Commitments To Not Deploy The National Gaurd:

Fithian repetitively stressed the importance of getting allied Democrats in positions of power to agree to not deploy the National Gaurd.

Sharing Maps and Identifying Targets:

ShutDown DC distributed and displayed an ArcGIS map that highlighted their targets including the U.S. Capitol, RNC HQ, DNC HQ, and Trump boosters.

Wearing Disguises:

During the session Fithian instructed on wearing disguises, altering their appearances, and keeping a change of clothes in their bags to put on a different colored shirt if things "get crazy".

Taking over a TV or radio stations:

Fithian proposed the idea of taking over media outlets as a way to communicate with the public and rally more supporters to their cause.

Disrupting Critical Infrastructure:

Discussions also included disrupting transportation networks, aiming to immobilize movement in and around DC, and crippling critical infrastructure that the government needs to maintain power.

Target Republicans or Democrats To Force Trump Out

"Maybe it's a narrow Biden victory, and Trump is not conceding. Maybe it's targeting Republicans and telling them it's time to get him to go."

"If let's say there's a narrow Trump victory, we might have to pivot. And at that point, we might need to say we need to target the Democrats and make sure Biden does not concede."

ShutDown DC shared their target list amongst their groups called "DC Opportunities 2".

Hong Kong Style Riot Tactics:

Fithian discussed using Hong-Kong Style tactics and trained participants in the methods used, many of which being illegal.

"So Hong Kong taught us a lot about mass uprising because, again, this is not we're not talking about a protest moment."

Multiple Affinity Groups In Action:

Fithian shows pictures of her previous civil disobedience actions that she planned using her many affinity groups including a veterans group holding American flags.

Lisa Fithian - Meet Professor Occupy

In an article entirely about Lisa Fithian, Mother Jones wrote,

The Mother Jones article asserts that Lisa Fithian is paid to run demonstrations and instruct activist groups, this begs the question, was Fithian being paid to train activists to take over government buildings? And if so, by who?

MSNBC covered a large disorderly protest lead by Lisa Fithian in the Texas Capitol in 2013 featured a photograph Fithian.

May 1st, 2024, Fithian lead pro-palestine protestors in large scale campus take overs in coordinated, text book, Fithian fashion.

Here's Fithian directing "presumed students" to chain metal tables to the University's doors to form blockades.

The recent university protests were widely perceived as organic, primarily led by Palestinians and students supporting Gaza.

However, with Lisa Fithian and her group orchestrating the actions, it’s clear these events were highly coordinated and pre-planned by agitators.

Internet sleuths identified rioter Maple Osterbrink at the UNC campus take over.

Osterbrink was a participant on Fithian's Zoom meeting that discussed taking over government buildings.

Below is a screen shot of some participants on ShutDown DC's zoom meeting hosted by Lisa Fithian. Maple Osterbrink can be seen on the far right third row.

Inspection of online activity of participants in Fithian's Zoom calls revealed heavy involvement in the 2023-2024 pro-Palestine protests across the country.

Many participants on Fithian’s calls were members of left-leaning Jewish non-profits, with their social media accounts showing their active roles in the recent pro-Palestine demonstrations.

If Lisa Fithian and her group dress as Palestinians, wearing kufiya scarves and waving Palestinian flags to create ambiguity in the public perception of these protests, it's reasonable to assume they may have used other disguises in the past to further their political agenda.

Internal Documents Reveal Plans To Take Over The Capitol On January 6th

A pdf. titled "The Count" was shared in the groups "Stopping The Coup Guide/Movement Resources".
It outlines a contingency plan on Jan. 6th to stage protests inside the US Capitol to make it physically impossible for Congress to meet or vote.

Written by:

Becky Bond- Senior Advisor of Bernie Sanders presidential campaign, Real Justice Pac

Zack Malitz- Digital Organizing Director Bernie 2016, Beto For Texas, Real Justice Pac

Brandon Evans- Democratic Strategist, Political Director of Real Justice PAC

Two authors of "The Count" sit on the board of The Real Justice PAC, one is its Political Director.

The Real Justice Pac endorsed and helped elect NY DA Alvin Bragg who brought politically motivated criminal charges against former President Trump.

The Count, dated 10.14.20 predicted a huge rise in mail-in ballots and election issues, which could lead to Trump contesting the results. They feared a Constitutional Crisis where neither candidate gets the 270 electoral votes and then the election would be decided by 1 vote per state, thus Trump would win.

Constitutional Crisis Scenarios:

Zack Malitz discusses what will happen if neither candidate receives 270 Electoral College votes, triggering the decision to fall to the House, where state delegations would cast votes, likely favoring Trump.

Capitol Take Over Strategy For January 6th:

Authors Zack Malitz and Becky Bond discuss using civil disobedience and other tactics to interfere in the electoral college vote count on January 6th.

Page 37 of "The Count" restates a contingency plan to,

"Lead the public in staging mass civil disobedience protests in the Capitol with the goal of making it impossible for Congress to meet or vote."
