Good timeline of events.
Proud Boys, Roger Stone, rallies and organizing.
Seeing as there is so much going on with the J6C, it’s time to share a chart showing some of the key conservative legal groups, including the so-called Honest Elections Project, Judicial Watch, the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF), and True the Vote.
PILF’s John Eastman is making news today.
It’s true. HE PLED THE FIFTH 146 TIMES.
That’s what people do when they have nothing to hide, ammirite?
This link is from December 3. He appeared before J6C on December 8.

After lopsided outcomes, where states with more Democratic voter saw GOP win more seats in 2012, a “legislative blitzkreig” began. Concealed carry, defunding public schools were some of the targets.
Cookie-cutter laws found their way into states’ chambers.

I’m scratching around the #CouncilForNationalPolicy roster and was looking for an entity that’s got low web presence when I found this month-old letter to Texas governor Abbot on voting suppression.
Its signatories are a veritable CNP who’s who.

Let’s take a closer look starting at the top:
Edwin Meese III is listed on the letter as Attorney General to Ronald Reagan from 1985-88. At the #CNP, of which he has a been a member he serves on the CNP Senior Executive Committee and is currently an honorary member (one of 6).

This is how we got here... allowing #RightWing #CNP #KochNetwork (#DarkMoney) members to operate in the shadows and when caught, deny their complicity and/or normalize them.. We must stop giving them a pass.

Ginni did not make a mistake, an error in judgement... what's occurred the last four yrs. & the events this week were carefully planned & a multi pronged, nationwide strategy employed... the legal challenges, astroturf protest groups #ALEC lobbying
Ginni & her fellow #CouncilForNationalPolicy #KochNetwork members ALSO have plans to rewrite the Constitution. That's been in the works for yrs. and they are closer to it than most people realize (or will admit)
