There's a lot to digest.
But I have a question or two. Let's start at the top:
The call to action was titled “Election Results and Legal Battles: What Now?” Shared in the days after the 2020 presidential election, it urged the members of an influential if secretive right-wing group to contact legislators in three of the swing states that tipped the balance for Joe Biden — Arizona, Georgia and Pennsylvania. The aim was audacious: Keep President Donald J. Trump in power.
The group, the Council for National Policy, brings together old-school Republican luminaries, Christian conservatives, Tea Party activists and MAGA operatives, with more than 400 members who include leaders of organizations like the Federalist Society, the National Rifle Association and the Family Research Council.
The Council for National Policy. Sending a "call to action" to Pennsylvania. Hmm.
The Times continues:
As Trump insisted, without evidence, that fraud had cheated him of victory, conservative groups rushed to rally behind him. The council stood out, however, not only because of its pedigree but also because one of its newest leaders was Virginia Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas and a longtime activist in right-wing circles. She had taken on a prominent role at the council during the Trump years and by 2019 had joined the nine-member board of C.N.P. Action, an arm of the council organized as a 501(c)4 under a provision of the tax code that allows for direct political advocacy. It was C.N.P. Action that circulated the November “action steps” document, the existence of which has not been widely known. It instructed members to pressure Republican lawmakers into challenging the election results and appointing alternate slates of electors: “Demand that they not abandon their Constitutional responsibilities during a time such as this.”
That "call to action" from November would be this:
If the CNP was the pitcher, PA State Senator Doug Mastriano was the catcher (at least in Pennsylvania).
So my question here for Doug: How much direct interaction have you had with the Council for National Policy (and it's advocacy wing, CNP Action) regarding the events of January 6?
You're running for Governor of Pennsylvania and I am a Pennsylvania voter and I'd like to know the answer to that question.
