Usa, Guardian: “Coup plan to keep Trump in power”

There was a plan to keep Donald Trump in the presidency of the United States. The coup project included a declaration of national emergency by Trump to prevent Joe Biden’s victory being certified on Jan.6, the day a crowd of supporters of the outgoing president stormed Congress. The plan, writes the Guardian, is contained in a Power Point document that former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows handed over to the “selected committee”, the House of Representatives commission investigating the assault on Capitol Hill. The document is titled “Election Fraud, Foreign Interference and Options for January 6” and lists a series of recommendations to Trump so that he can remain in power, based on fake news about alleged, and never proven, election fraud in his own right. damage. The fact that Meadows was in possession of it suggests that he was aware of Trump’s efforts to prevent the certification of Biden’s victory. , which had reached the White House chief of staff by email, the newspaper sources said. The Guardian viewed a second 36-page version of the same document, with January 5 metadata, which has some differences from the other, but has the same title. The plan called for senators and deputies to be notified of foreign interference in the vote. That is a series of fake news on imaginative Chinese interference in eight key states. At this point Trump allegedly declared a national emergency, invalidated all electronic presidential elections votes and asked Congress to agree on a constitutionally acceptable solution.As is known, in the United States, the president is formally chosen by large voters, which each state sends on the basis of their electoral result. On January 6, it was up to Vice President Mike Pence to preside over certifying the Democratic candidate’s victory to Congress. According to the coup plan, he would have had to block the big voters assigned to Biden, replace them with big Trumpian voters, or postpone certification pending. But Pence was not of this opinion The Power Point presentation was among the 6 thousand documents that Meadows delivered to the select commissioner. They also include texting with a congressman about a “highly controversial” plan to send big Trump voters to congress. Meadows replies: “I like it.” The Power Point, writes the Guardian, was in fact sent on January 4 to some Republican parliamentarians. Meadows sent material to the committee until Tuesday, when he broke the cooperation agreement with the House investigators. The latter then announced that they wanted to ask for his indictment for failing to comply with the subpoena.
