🚨🚨BREAKING: #MyPillow CEO Michael Lindell’s notes for his meeting with Trump show that he lobbied to install Trump loyalists to gin up “evidence” of electoral “fraud” and impose #MartialLaw to keep Trump in power.
“#InsurrectionAct now as a result of the assault on the...#MartialLaw if necessary upon the first hint of any”
Lindell appears to be arguing that, in response to the violence at the Capitol, Trump should invoke the #InsurrectionAct, which would allow him to impose #MartialLaw.🤬
Kash Patel—former staffer to @DevinNunes—was key in Nunes’s efforts to undercut the #TrumpRussia investigation.
As CIA Director, he could declassify documents related to the #TrumpRussia🇷🇺probe that some #traitors want released.🤬
“Make clear this is #China/#Iran...also used domestic actors…”
Lindell appears to claim that the election might somehow have been influenced by China & Iran, a claim for which there’s NO evidence. In fact, Trump administration’s cybersecurity team has already ruled this out.🙄
On Thursday, Lindell posted on his Facebook page that Trump would be president for “4 more years.”
The photo at the top of his page shows him standing in the Oval Office next to Trump, who’s seated at the Resolute Desk.
Lindell is a conspiracy theorist, reinforced by his tweet on the day before the #TrumpInsurrection with a link to an 8kun document describing an imminent war for America. 8kun serves as the preferred stomping ground for QAnon conspiracy theorists, among others.🙄
Bottom line: the #MyPillow guy tried to pitch Trump on a seditious plan to install his loyalists at key posts to gin up “evidence” of election “fraud” and impose #MartialLaw to overturn the democratic election of @JoeBiden.
A pro-Trump nonprofit group— Women for America First—hosted the 1/6 “Save America Rally,” but the public gathering permit lists >6 people as staff who were paid by Trump’s campaign. Other staff scheduled to be “on site” during the rally have close ties to the WH.🤬
📌At least 1 was working for the Trump campaign THIS MONTH. Megan Powers was listed as 1 of 2 operations managers for the 1/6 rally—her LinkedIn profile says she was the Trump campaign’s director of operations into January 2021.
🚨@WSJ review of thousands of Proud Boys’ posts on Parler, Telegram & Gab—including those now-deleted—show the group repeatedly invoking Trump’s rhetoric prior to the Capitol attack and that they **viewed Trump’s messages as a call to action**.🤬
In December, after Trump tweeted “be there, will be wild,” about the 1/6 rally, the Long Island chapter of the Proud Boys posted that Trump supporters have been “waiting for the green light from the President.”
“Everyone who said ‘Mr. President, just say when?’ He just did.”💥
🔥@BenSasse: “The violence...is not a protest gone awry or the work of “a few bad apples.” It is the blossoming of a rotten seed that took root in the @GOP some time ago & has been nourished by treachery, poor political judgment & COWARDICE.”
“January 6 is a new red-letter day in US history...because a subset of the invaders apparently were attempting to disrupt a constitutionally mandated meeting of the Congress, kidnap the @VP & somehow force him to declare Trump the victor in an election he LOST.”🤬
🔥”When Trump leaves office, my party faces a choice: We can dedicate ourselves to defending the Constitution and perpetuating our best American institutions and traditions, or we can be a party of conspiracy theories, cable-news fantasies, and the ruin that comes with them.”
Trump’s #Seditionists beat officers with metal pipes and a pole with an American flag attached, and used stun guns. Officer Fanone suffered a mild heart attack and drifted in and out of consciousness.
Fanone said he heard rioters shout. “Kill him with his own gun!”🤬
Here’s video of Trump’s violent #Seditionists beating an officer with a pole with an American flag.🤬
The majority of Trump’s terrorists are white supremacists whose past conduct was so alarming that their names had been previously entered into the national Terrorist Screening Database.
And Trump threw gasoline on their raging fire of hate.🤬
The presence of so many watch-listed #terrorists at the Capitol *without more robust security measures to protect elected leaders, including the @VP* is another example of the intelligence failures preceding the #TrumpCoupAttempt that sent lawmakers running for their lives.🤬
‼️ Donovan Crowl—a 50 yo former @USMC who served as a helicopter mechanic—was among the uniformed #seditionists. While storming the Capitol, he wore a combat helmet, ballistic goggles, and a tactical vest with a handheld radio.
A patch on Crowl’s sleeve identified him as a member of the Oath Keepers, a far-right anti-government group identified as one of the largest and most dangerous extremist groups in the country that's been involved in several armed standoffs with law enforcement in recent years.🤬
Mary McCord, a former acting assistant AG for national security in DOJ, said that while “these types of modern unlawful militias have been around for decades, ever since Ruby Ridge and Waco,” Trump’s incitement had encouraged their #insurrection.🤬
