I scanned down the Gateway article, is based on an AP story which apparently is based on NYT article by Maggie Haberman or whateveritsnameis.

Many details, that Flynn suggested mil deployment, Trump shot it down, someone suggested DHS take dominion machines, some cipo-etc WH Laywer said DHS can’t do it, etc.

Small quote, more at the GP link:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Most of his advisers opposed the idea, two of the people briefed on the discussion said, including Rudolph W. Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, who in recent days sought to have the Department of Homeland Security join the campaign’s efforts to overturn Mr. Trump’s loss in the election.

Mr. Giuliani joined the discussion by phone, while Ms. Powell was at the White House for a meeting that became raucous at times, according to one of the people briefed on what took place. Other administration officials drifted in and out of the meeting, two of the people briefed said, and the White House counsel, Pat A. Cipollone, pushed back on the ideas being proposed.

Ms. Powell accused other Trump advisers of being quitters, according to the people briefed.

It was unclear if Mr. Trump will move ahead with such a plan.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Very hard to imagine Trump and his people letting people drift in and out and leaks happening. If leaks did happen and this article gets it right, then the leaked info was done on purpose to mislead. Such a meeting discussing these issues would not be done in a half-a**ed way as described, with people taking part who then told the NYT.
