@TimmyLynch13 DOJ: "Bannon was indicted today by a federal grand jury on two counts of contempt of Congress stemming from his failure to comply with a subpoena issued by the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol." https://t.co/ErmBYCZnRR — PolitiTweet.org

@TimmyLynch13 I have a motto as a reporter: "Assume nothing." We know they are conducting extensive interviews, probing a wide range of angles on Jan. 6. We also know AG Garland/DOJ had a grand jury indict Bannon. We still don't know much about what else that grand jury is doing/has done. — PolitiTweet.org

If you're interested in having me out to your college or city/town forum for an open-press, no-frills presentation on "Peril" and the events of January 2021, reach out to @SimonSpeakers. They're helping me with logistics for these gatherings. https://t.co/ohqJq0pSKC — PolitiTweet.org

In recent trips to Minn., Chicago, Houston, and Los Angeles, I've given a detailed talk on the coordinated pressure campaign ahead of Jan6 that connects the dots. The docs. The players. The intent. The scenes. It's been rewarding to see how much people *crave* info on democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

"If these people say you had the power, wouldn't you want to?" Trump asked. "I wouldn't want any one person to have that authority," Pence said. "But wouldn't it almost be cool to have that power?" Trump asked. "No," Pence said. /end — PolitiTweet.org

But despite all of these docs and PowerPts, the most revealing thing of this period isn't a document. It's what he says to Pence on Jan. 5. At the end of the day, Trump isn't looking to these docs to make his case. He looks to the gathering mob in the streets. (Ch. 43, "Peril") — PolitiTweet.org

We now know that in the critical Jan. 4-5 period, where the pressure on Pence is Level 10/10, you have not only the principals leaning on the VP, but numerous docs circulating to make the case. -Eastman memos -PowerPoints -And Jenna Ellis memos (see below) https://t.co/3sqREsCIWi — PolitiTweet.org

Read this: "The powerpoint was presented on 4 January to a number of Republican senators and members of Congress, the source said." Meadows was in possession of a PowerPoint that echoed Eastman memo. (The origin story of the PP is a key reporting target.) https://t.co/GH6ggITSXv — PolitiTweet.org

@jcvessey @SenMikeLee It's an important question and one that deserves more reporting. It's evident, based on our reporting in "Peril," that the Eastman is being circulated by Jan. 2. We know Lee is not the only one who got it. Who else received it? Who called Trump to discuss it? — PolitiTweet.org

Now, months after "Peril" was published, we are learning more about both Meadows and that key day, January *4th.* Think of it as the set-up day for the eve of the insurrection, Jan. 5, when Bannon and Giuliani work from the Willard and Trump pressures Pence, 1 on 1, in Oval. — PolitiTweet.org

Chief of staff Mark Meadows is working with Trump this whole time, and we show him meeting with Graham and Giuliani on how to push Trump's efforts along. See his Jan. 2 meeting with both of them on p. 212-214 of "Peril." But there were still lingering Qs re: his role/knowledge. — PolitiTweet.org

As Eastman and Trump pressure Pence and Pence's aides/lawyers, the rest of the Trump WH is in full-steam ahead mode that same day. See "Peril" chapter 41. "Graham was at the WH on January 4, where he received some memos supporting Trump's claims." We put those memos in the book. — PolitiTweet.org

On Jan. 4, Pence is in Georgia for a rally, but once he flies back, Trump calls him to the Oval. See "Peril" pgs. 224-227. "I'm getting guidance that says I can't," Pence tells Trump and Eastman, who is there. "Listen. Listen to John," Trump replies. — PolitiTweet.org

(thread) Based on our reporting, Eastman begins drafting his memo in late Dec. and Trump WH has it by the new year. WH then gives it to Sen. Lee and others on Jan. 2, as we document in "Peril." But by Jan. 3, after Pence meets w/ Sen. Parliam., it's clear he's not coming along. — PolitiTweet.org
