115/ I’ll admit to some frustration with this thread, as I haven’t really gotten to the focus of PROOF OF COUP yet. While a lot of what I’ve discussed is in the book, it’s not what the book is primarily about. It’s the backdrop to the book’s focus—which is *inside* the Pentagon. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
114/ (...or else are fighting in court to keep their communications hidden? Well, they did and are. The coverup is real. Waldron is fighting subpoenas; so is Friess; the list of those pleading the Fifth Amendment or getting their stuff deleted or fighting in court is very long.) — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
113/ (Did I mention that all of the government people involved in these schemes either had their texts and secure messages deleted by Trump-era executive-branch entities in direct violation of agency protocols, FOIA, the Presidential Records Act, and/or federal statutes.... — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
112/ And lest you think all this presidential-transition job-hopping is normal for a POTUS leaving office... well, you know it’s not. But the point is, PROOF OF COUP has the video of a Team Kraken member admitting that “war-gaming” continued unabated post-January 6. Which it did. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
111/ But to be clear, Team Kraken didn’t give up on the DHS angle just because Giuliani was focused on the Pentagon angle. Indeed, it was on January 7 that Team Kraken produced a new plan for Trump—delivered to him on January 15—that focused on moving Kash Patel over to the CIA. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
110/ Keep in mind by January 7 no “evidence” of foreign interference had come from Bolsonaro or Chinese dissidents and the mob had failed to assassinate Pence—nixing the “national emergency” ploy. But if Giuliani could frame January 6 as a terror attack... https://t.co/bJrBj9jrER — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
109/ In the video, Giuliani uses false and manufactured evidence—and when you see how the book debunks it you will be greatly amused, I assure you—to suggest that the January 6 attack was a premeditated attack on the *2020 presidential election*. (Yes, I know... it’s... bizarre). — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
108/ Well, good news! Because PROOF OF COUP is a fully sourced 250-page ebook rather than a fully sourced 250-page hardcover, it can have videos! And one such video—a truly bizarre one—was recorded by Rudy Giuliani at the Willard on January 7 or January 8. https://t.co/dQigVf2wjO — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
107/ The purpose of the first of these is clear enough: the Willard suite (run by Giuliani) had been sicced on DHS by Trump on December 18, as we know. This was the “DHS option.” But what’s this about blaming the Capitol attack on antifa? How does that advance *seizing machines*? — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
106/ In contrast, what were the two tasks Trump’s sole Insurrection Day (as opposed to Insurrection Eve) war room—the one at the Willard—focused on? 1⃣ Lobbying DHS backchannel regarding (false) claims of foreign election interference. 2⃣ Blaming the Capitol attack on the left. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
105/ For instance, consider the mountain of evidence that Trump wanted his Vice President to be assassinated on January 6. Would that have postponed the joint session? Eh—maybe? For a day? But would it have let Trump declare a national emergency? Hell yes. https://t.co/lJJpftkiOf — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
104/ The point is, that while—as PROOF previously established via two exhaustive reports (e.g. the one below)—*one* option for Trump on January 6 was a medium-term Capitol occupation that postponed the joint session, the other was...chaos. Absolute bedlam. https://t.co/BDNR5TEFtv — PolitiTweet.org

103/ Stone convinced Trump to return to D.C., where he tapped Alex Jones (who’d spent the last 45 days with armed extremists in the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers who wanted January 6 to go off in such a way it’d give Trump a pretext for martial law) to lead his big January 6 march. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
102/ In Florida, Trump met with Roger Stone—who’d spent the last 45 days near-daily in the company of armed extremists in the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers who wanted January 6 to go off in such a way that it’d give Trump the pretext he needed for martial law (the “Pentagon” plan). — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
101/ Team Kraken fake-election-data impresarios Navarro and Ziegler—both in Trump’s employ at the White House—began working furiously on their second report falsely alleging election fraud, a work of grotesque fiction that was timed to drop 2 days before the big day (January 6). — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
100/ Flynn protégé Cohen-Watnick, head of intelligence at the Pentagon, began putting out the word that there was absolutely no evidence whatsoever that anything untoward of any kind was going to happen on January 6. (Hmm... that’s odd. We’ll return to that in just a little bit). — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
99/ Giuliani began lobbying DHS. Lindell helped set up a trip by Bolsonaro to the U.S. that’d be falsely billed as a “vacation.” Trump ordered Mark Meadows to onboard Powell. Patrick Byrne continued working at Team Kraken HQ, which—did I mention?—was in Trump International Hotel. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
98/ Flynn made a call. To whom? A protégé and ex-employee, Ezra Cohen-Watnick, who was in charge of all intelligence matters at... ...the Pentagon. And how did a 35 year-old Trump loyalist get into such an exalted position? Because Trump put him there right after the election. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
97/ We thereafter see almost *endless* evidence of Team Kraken springing into action to pursue *both* of the paths Trump had set them on. Powell returned to the White House *the next business day* with a document—photographed by reporters—alleging Iranian election interference. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
96/ So Trump siccing Giuliani on Cuccinelli and DHS via an EO written by—did I mention?—a former DHS employee (Bobb) was Trump confirming that his desire to seize voting machines continued unabated post-December 18 and he wanted two avenues to remain “live”: the Pentagon and DHS. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
95/ It doesn’t have to make sense to you or me. Giuliani is Trump’s closer—his most trusted toady and a man without scruples. Trump uses Giuliani to *steal elections* and trusts him (because of attorney-client privilege, which Trump gravely misunderstands) to keep his mouth shut. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
94/ When Trump sought to blackmail Comey into reopening Clinton’s email case in October of 2016—which he did, giving (per pollsters) Trump the Oval—it was Giuliani he entrusted with the task. When he sought to steal the 2020 election via Kremlin agents in Ukraine? Giuliani again. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
93/ Those of us who see Rudy Giuliani as—candidly—a feeble and stupid and venal man who never qualified as much of a lawyer might laugh at the idea that Trump siccing Giuliani on DHS was bringing out the big guns. But you’d really be misunderstanding the Trump-Giuliani dynamic. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
92/ Keep in mind that Trump’s equivalent of a DHS cabinet secretary—again, long story—Ken Cuccinelli had already told Trump *in no uncertain terms* that such an order would be *illegal*. What did Trump do? He commanded his most trusted servant, Giuliani, to go secretly lobby DHS. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
91/ But that was *not* all Donald Trump did on December 18, because as I mentioned there was a *second* draft executive order in play: an order that depended not on a national emergency (like the Pentagon order) but evidence of foreign election interference. It was to go to DHS. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
90/ After reading the EO, Trump made Powell a White House special counsel. He thereafter went to his chief of staff—Mark Meadows—and commanded him to on-board Powell as White House special counsel. If he did little more at the time, it’s because he jetted off to Florida for NYE. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
89/ That draft executive order, 1 of 2 Team Kraken gave Trump that night—authored by Trump lawyer Bobb with help from then-Trump advisers Flynn and Waldron, reviewed by Trump lawyer Friess and to be executed by Trump lawyer Powell—commanded the Pentagon to seize voting machines. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
88/ First, he *did*, in fact, appoint Sidney Powell as White House special counsel—a fact Pat Cipollone grudgingly acknowledges even as he says he *personally* chose not to recognize the appointment—and did so after she showed him a draft executive order she wanted him to employ. — PolitiTweet.org
