The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election (Feb 2021)
Time ^ | February 4th 2021 | Molly Ball

A weird thing happened right after the Nov. 3 election: nothing.

The nation was braced for chaos. Liberal groups had vowed to take to the streets, planning hundreds of protests across the country. Right-wing militias were girding for battle. In a poll before Election Day, 75% of Americans voiced concern about violence.

Instead, an eerie quiet descended. As President Trump refused to concede, the response was not mass action but crickets. When media organizations called the race for Joe Biden on Nov. 7, jubilation broke out instead, as people thronged cities across the U.S. to celebrate the democratic process that resulted in Trump’s ouster.

This is the inside story of the conspiracy to save the 2020 election, based on access to the group’s inner workings, never-before-seen documents and interviews with dozens of those involved from across the political spectrum. It is the story of an unprecedented, creative and determined campaign whose success also reveals how close the nation came to disaster.

That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it.

Just how far will they go if they think the ends justify the means? Scary stuff.

While I despise what Molly Ball stands for, she writes well.

Perhaps you could digest her brutal honesty and braggadocio a paragraph at a time

They told us ahead of time that they were “fortifying” the election to make sure they got their desired outcome.

So what if somebody “writes well”...? Like I care. “Writers” are a dime a dozen, especially liberal hacks.

Stealing never prospers
What’s the reason
For if it prospers
None dare call it stealing.

I don’t doubt that good writing is lost on you.

Don’t kid yourself. No one cares about good writing anymore.
