This investment will allow them to deploy social media influencers and students from around the country to Washington, DC to attend the rally. Additionally, they will be producing all the video content at the event and will also be running nationwide ads educating millions about the significance of January 6th for President Trump, in addition to mobilizing students to fight against voter fraud as well as help expand Turning Point Action's campus army towards the President's America First goals/objectives. Save the U.S. Senate PAC was founded by Donald Trump Jr in an effort to stop the Georgia Voter Fraud and to help re-elect Republican Senate candidates Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue. This investment will help support attendance at President Trump's rally on January 4th and will also enable the organization to make additional ad buys featuring Donald Trump Jr to encourage Senators Loeffler and Perdue to vote to stop the steal in Georgia on January 6. They will use the contribution to create a centralized website to promote the rally events on January 5th and 6th including the agenda and an RSVP page. They will use targeted ads to promote the website to encourage individuals to attend and sign up via the webpage. This will include both a television, radio and digital campaign to promote the January 6th rally and will geo-target a 180 mile radius to encourage attendance. This investment will go directly to Alex Jones to assist with his organization efforts. The Republican Attorneys Generals (RAGA) have been incredibly supportive of President Trump's legal efforts. This investment would fund their continued legal efforts to fight the election fraud around the country with so many pending lawsuits. This payment is retain Caroline Wren's services. ding overseeing the budget, event organization, logistics and donor advisement. The budget is built to scale pending subcontractors that may be needed to assist with the execution and logistics f the rallies. These funds will assist the organizers of the rally. The main organizer is currently Women for America First but another organization holds the actual permits. Holding on payment until this gets worked out but the organizers expect the expenses to be around $300,000 and they have raised $150,000 to date so this would go to supplement the additional costs. This is money we are holding back to help assist VIP speakers that will need potential speakers fees, flights, lodging, etc. We will need these funds to organize a busing program for cities within 180 mile radius. We may just contract directly through Bluebonnet Fundraising with the busing companies. This is the estimated cost for the hotels/private flights, car services and private security for the Fancelli group (estimate 10- 15 people)

Summary of the first 8 hearings

What We Learned from the Hearings Now that the first batch of hearings from the Select Committee are done, we are starting to get "What did we learn?" stories. Slate has one and so does CNN. Slate looked at each hearing to point out the key things we learned from it, as follows: • Hearing 1: By December 2020, Trump knew he had lost. He had been told that by many people in his administration and even his own daughter Ivanka. His claim that there was fraud was shot down by his own attorney general, Bill Barr, who said he had investigated and there was no significant fraud. Nevertheless, Trump continued to say he won. Whether he actually believed that is unknowable, but he said it and acted on it. • Hearing 2: On Election Night, a drunk Rudy Giuliani told Trump to declare victory, which Trump did, despite having many of his own people tell him that millions of (largely Democratic) absentee ballots hadn't been counted yet. As Trump kept coming up with more crazy theories, Acting Deputy AG Richard Donoghue kept shooting them down but Trump kept insisting they were true. • Hearing 3: This one focused on John Eastman's plan to have Mike Pence throw out electoral votes for Joe Biden and declare Trump the winner. Eastman was told by many people that such a move would result in violence in the streets. Eastman didn't care and neither did Trump. When the true story leaked to The New York Times, Trump vigorously denied it, despite knowing that it was true. White House lawyer Eric Herschmann told Eastman to get the best criminal defense lawyer he could because he was going to need it. Eastman's response was to ask for a pardon (which he didn't get). Eastman might be the easiest of Trump's cronies to convict now because there is a paper trail (a letter he wrote asking state legislatures to appoint their own electors) and numerous witnesses to what he said and did. If he were to flip to save his own neck after being indicted, he could easily nail Trump to the wall. • Hearing 4: This one was about Trump's efforts to intimidate state and local officials, from the level of poll workers like Shaye Moss up to the level of Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers (R) and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R). A focus here was the phony (and illegal) slate of electors Giuliani and his helpers had put together in Arizona, Georgia, and other states. • Hearing 5: A last-ditch effort by Trump was to try to replace Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen with environmental lawyer Jeffrey Clark, who was prepared to do anything Trump told him to do, like seizing all the voting machines. Rosen resisted with everything he had. Herschmann summarized this by telling Clark: "Good fu**ing a**hole, congratulations, you just admitted that the first step or act you would take as attorney general would be committing a felony." Donoghue was more concise: "We'll call you when there's an oil spill." • Hearing 6: This day belonged entirely to Cassidy Hutchinson, Mark Meadows' then chief-of-staff. She made it clear that the attack on the Capitol was not a spontaneous uprising. Trump and Giuliani had planned it days in advance. Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, White House Counsel Pat Cipollone, and everyone else in the White House knew about it. Cipollone, among others, knew the goal was illegal (e.g., was obstruction of justice and defrauding the electoral count) and tried to dissuade everyone from pulling it off. Hutchinson also said that in a December lunch meeting when Barr again told Trump that there was no fraud, Trump was so angry he threw his lunch at the wall, covering it with ketchup. Since removing ketchup from walls is apparently part of a chief of staff's job description, Hutchinson quickly performed the necessary act. • Hearing 7: This hearing focused to the "unhinged" White House meeting in December when Trump announced that he was going to appoint Sidney Powell special counsel and have her seize the voting machines. When all the lawyers, including Herschmann and Cipollone, told him that declaring martial law and seizing the machines was illegal, he called them a bunch of p*ssies. As this hearing ended, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) casually mentioned that Trump may have engaged in witness tampering, a federal crime. • Hearing 8: Finally, the focus was on the actual coup attempt. The hearing showed beyond any doubt that while it was going on, Trump watched it happily on Fox News, despite entreaties from his staff, Republicans in Congress, and his family to tell the rioters to go home. The hearing made it clear that Trump wanted the coup to succeed and if Mike Pence got killed in the process, well, he deserved it. Anyone who watched the hearing learned that Trump was not befuddled or confused or paralyzed by what he saw on TV. He liked it and actively wanted it to continue and to succeed in stopping the electoral count. He even sent out a tweet encouraging the mob.
