In December 2020, Attorney General William Barr convened federal cybersecurity and FBI experts in a classified room to determine if President Donald Trump's Antrim County voting machine claims were credible, as reported by ProPublica. CISA specialists explained the controversy resulted from a clerk error, not fraud — a finding later confirmed by hand count. Understanding this truth would cost him his job, Barr told his deputy he would "kamikaze" into the White House. When confronting Trump, Barr resigned rather than endorse false claims. Barr represented a rare institutional guardrail that held. Today, nearly all 75 career election protection officials have been replaced by Trump appointees and election deniers. The administration dismantled CISA's election security division, the NSC's election security group, and the Foreign Malign Influence Center. The DOJ's Public Integrity Section was reduced from 36 to two people. Election denial movement members now occupy key federal positions, working toward reshaping elections through systematic, months-long efforts rather than last-minute overturn attempts.Watch the video below.
