of people that included roger stone and steve bannon urging trump to declare victory regardless of the results, the actual legal results, of the 2020 election. now the january 6th select committee cites a memo that fitton wrote for trump in the run-up to election day, i think the summer before the election, as evidence that in the words of committee member zoe love gren friend the big lie was untensional, promeditated and a plan concocted in advance. here s a snippet from the january 6th select committee s final hearing. a few days before the election, mr. trump also consulted with one of husband outside advisers inside activist tom fitton about the strategy for election night. the select committee got this pre-prepared statement from the national archives. as you can see, the draft statement, which was sent on october 31st, declares we had an election today and i won, and the fitton memo specifically indicates a plan that only the votes counted by the election day deadline
2020. it s pretty easy to find some, uh funny stuff. i m wondering how you feel. knowing that one of the things that came out during discovery was how different the hosts felt behind the scenes than what they were saying on the air. for instance, when tucker carlson said behind the scenes after the election on november 23rd 2020, he says, i had to try to make the white house disavows sidney powell, which they obviously should have done long before. laura ingram text response. no serious lawyer could believe what they were saying. well i lost. i lost trust in them prior to that, anyway when? when the fox was calling out the election. i know a lot of people felt this way they were calling out the election prematurely for arizona . and then after that, you know , there s been a lot of talking out both sides of their mouth. the audience is not looking to be lied to it s looking to give
