hello, this is a beat, special report. inside the effort to stage a coup with new evidence tonight, showing this is far broader than prosecutors first thought. we are breaking down the path to a criminal conspiracy ny experts now think the most serious charges may be yet to come. why are we doing this now? the house insurrection hearing show the nation that january 6th was more organized than many realized. the committee devoted to investigating that they has revealed truths about that day. yet, the house probe has also underscored something new to many, trump s plot to overthrow the election was far broader than one date or prepping a one- day crime spree. it was an illegal coup conspiracy starting before the election and lasting months. with criminal plots that had nothing to do with even january 6th and the illegal orders by trump that were resisted. we will show this to you tonight and begin with things that were part of looking perfectly legal, like challenging results
call one eight hundred, eight million of our report on the trump coup conspiracy. we ve gone through a lot of evidence in our special for you. and i want to make sure were clear on what we ve learned. what we found. because all of this starts here with lawsuits. that s the right of any candidate to file. even if they are frivolous. and this elector plot starts in green, because ultimately, people do have the ability to set up these electors, right? it became criminal later and we ll get into that, but, as you watch this go overtime. what you see here is everything
