Trump exerted pressure on VP Pence to reject the certificates of electors from certain states won by Biden and declare Trump the winner
Under the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution[2] and the Electoral Count Act,[3] the VP, is responsible for opening the certificates
"They wanted to gather intelligence on senators, judges, congressmen, state reps, to move them towards the audit," Stern said. "The word 'move' was emphasized… they wanted was to extort and to literally move people towards the audit with dirt."
They published a report in mid-October 2020 that gamed out a scenario where Trump would remain in office through an alliance between law enforcement and militant extremists
The report prepared by #Eastman, who authored a memo laying out another strategy for keeping Trump in office, and former advisor #McFarland, #KevinRoberts, then-executive director of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, #JeffGiesea and right-wing blogger #CharlesHaywood

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), who has served as U.S. attorney and state attorney general, on Friday wrote to Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MI) about the funding of the insurrection.
"The attack on the Capitol on Jan 6 was the culmination of a months-long disinformation campaign designed to allow Trump to remain in office," Whitehouse began. "Public reporting indicates that this campaign was organized and funded by dark-money organizations and powerful donors
