Among the records that Donald Trump’s lawyers tried to shield from Jan. 6 investigators are a draft executive order that would have directed the defense secretary to seize voting machines and a document titled “Remarks on National Healing.” Politico has reviewed both documents. The text of the draft executive order is published here for the first time. The document can be found here.....

Presidential Findings To Preserve Collect And Analyze National Security Information Regarding The 2020 General Election

The draft executive order shows that the weeks between Election Day and the Capitol attack could have been even more chaotic than they were. It credulously cites conspiracy theories about election fraud in Georgia and Michigan, as well as debunked notions about Dominion voting machines.The order empowers the defense secretary to “seize, collect, retain and analyze all machines, equipment, electronically stored information, and material records required for retention under” a U.S. law that relates to preservation of election records. It also cites a lawsuit filed in 2017 against Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Additionally, the draft order would have given the defense secretary [a Trump appointee] 60 days to write an assessment of the 2020 election. That suggests it could have been a gambit to keep Trump in power until at least mid-February of 2021.


A "report" cited by Donald Trump bases his voting machine seizure actions on “the forensic report of the Antrim County, Michigan voting machines.”

However, that report was produced by Russ Ramsland who confused precincts in Minnesota for those in Michigan, according to the Washington Post. The Michigan Secretary of State subsequently released a report debunking election conspiracy theories in Antrim County’s November 2020 election

It's too bad Trump never issued that EO. All this talk about the "Big Lie" could have been avoided.
 
It is becoming more and more clear who was actually trying to steal the election. Time that thinking Repubpicans sit back and take stock of the real facts.

Agreed. He rightfully would have been arrested for treason for attempting to use the armed forces to keep him in office against the will of voters, and would have had his opportunity to grift the easily influenceable (such as yourself) cut short. Instead we've had to deal with a full year of his lies and yours.
 
Down near the end…..


7) Thee appointment of a Special Counsel to oversee this operation and institute all criminal and civil proceedings as appropriate based on the evidence collected and provided all resources necessary to carry out her duties consistent with federal laws and the Constitution.

”her” duties. Hello, Kraken!

Sidney! I'm glad she's back in the spotlight. I've been missing hers and Rudy's inanity ever since they got hit with lawsuits and started hiding from the limelight.

This is easily solvable.....find out what the acceptable error rate for voting machines in 2020 by the EAC.......check the voting machines used in the election to see if they met the acceptable error rate. From what I can find, so far, Dominion and the left has been fighting tooth and nail to have this simplicity accomplished, so maybe now it will get done.

But this commission is not interested in justice, as seen by the huge leaking problem, but accused people still have rights in this country, last I looked.

Illegally seizing voting machines is easily solvable by hard time in the federal pen.

Who would have arrested him, with what forces, on whose authority? Remember he was placing 'acting' heads of places like the Department of Defense and could at DoJ last minute if his earlier toadies weren't loyal enough.

"thinking Repubpicans [sic]"? Do we have any of those?

Disgusting corrupt asshole.
 
All this froth and lather over an EO which never got past the draft stage? Never issued? Never implemented?

I'll bet every administration has lots of draft EOs which were reconsidered, and didn't get past the draft stage.

You can easily see the politically motivated and driven overt public manipulation the 1/6 committee is engaged in, right here in this (and other) forum threads.

Why even draft something like that?
 
All the revelations are coming out metered, it’s like cooking the frog, by the time the information comes out there is no reaction relative to the severity of the allegations…..
