Description

In early 2020, President Donald Trump and allies executed Operation Chaos, a little-known dirty trick ploy to disrupt Democratic Party primaries. After Chaos failed, Operation Gridlock targeted coronavirus pandemic lockdowns. Campaigns to discredit mail-in voting and the election followed. Some Trump supporters pursued Operation Gideon, a failed side plot to overthrow the president of Venezuela.After the election was called for Joe Biden, Trump and allies put pressure on Vice President Mike Pence through Operation Pence Card and the Green Bay Sweep to overturn election results when Pence presided in Congress on January 6, 2021. Operation Occupy the Capitol gained prominence after it became clear Pence would not join the plot. But the violence and chaos that enveloped the Capitol that day adversely affected the operation, causing more officials to pressure Trump to call off his mob.Trump and his operatives liked to use military-style, code names for their campaigns. But no matter what the operations were called, the result was chaos.To document this real-life story, veteran journalist Kevin James Shay, who has worked in the Washington, D.C., area for almost two decades and was born in a hospital near the Capitol, poured over public documents from the FBI, police departments, federal, state, and local governments, and other government agencies. He reviewed hundreds of news articles, videos, broadcasts, studies, and academic reports, and interviewed sources himself. He analyzed posts on Twitter, Facebook, and other social media feeds. Approaching this story as a true crime tale, he pieced together clues that help readers better understand how and why the Capitol attack occurred, uncovering fresh details and writing the story in a moving narrative that gives behind-the-scenes perspective. The ebook version, published in March 2021, was the first comprehensive account of what occurred on January 6. The print version provides updates.Aspects that many have missed include the plot executed on multiple fronts in the open and in secret, violence surrounding Trump events was more immense than realized, and Trump employed a decentralized model similar to how extremist groups work. The book includes recommendations, footnotes, resources, and photographs.
