  1. Trump's failed coup will go down in history as the most transparent coup attempt ever. Bannon openly bragged about the coup on his podcast the day before the coup. It's now a part of history The day  before the coup attempt, Bannon made comments on his podcast stating that "all he// is going to break loose tomorrow. It's gonna be moving. It's gonna be quick. And all I can say is strap in, the War Room, a posse. You have made this happen and tomorrow it's game day." “We’re now on the cusp of really reversing this, decertifying this, and that is because of you, this audience that has responded to everything. It’s now put us at the point that it’s all converging, and now we’re on, as they say, the point ofAttack. Right? The point of attackTomorrow. It’s going to kick off; it’s going to be very dramatic.” “It’s not going to happen like you think it’s going to happen. It’s going to be extraordinarily different. And all I can say is: Strap in. Let’s get ready. So many people said, ‘Man, if I was in a revolution, I would be in Washington.’ Well, this is your time in history.” Bannon said this to his listeners on January 5th. Trump pressed top Justice Department officials in a late December phone call to declare the election he lost “corrupt,” and “leave the rest” to him and Republican allies in Congress, according to contemporaneous, handwritten notes taken by officials on the call. On the Dec. 27 phone call with then-Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and his second-in-command, Richard Donoghue, Trump pressured them to violate the Constitution, and reverse Biden's win. Donoghue memorialized the conversation in handwritten notes, which the House Oversight Committee made public. On the call, Rosen, who took over at the Justice Department after William Barr resigned, and Donoghue push back. They tell Trump "the DOJ can't and won't snap its fingers and change the outcome of the election, doesn't work that way," the notes say. Trump responds: "Don't expect you to do that, just say that the election was corrupt, and leave the rest to me and the Republican Congressmen." Rosen and Donoghue said repeatedly on the call that the allegations of voter fraud were false. According to Donoghue's notes, the men told Trump they had done hundreds of interviews as part of dozens of probes and that his allegations across a number of swing states were not supported by evidence. They told Trump "flat out" he was getting false information or the claims were "just not supported by the evidence."
