Time Magazine article: "The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election”
Time Magazine: 'Secret,' 'Well-funded Cabal' Worked to 'Protect' 2020 Election
Time reported this:
"though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information."
Part of the outcome according to the article was "the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans." (obviously that sounds as "non-partisan" as it really is BTW)
If it were a communist country we would call that sort of thing "propaganda combined with rigging an election", good thing it is America where the only election interference we know of - is Russian tweets and blogs.
==================
“It should be borne in mind that the first step taken by any potential authoritarian or dictatorial regime is to gain control of communications, particularly the delivery of news,” Silberman added, saying “it is fair to conclude, therefore, that one-party control of the press and media is a threat to a viable democracy.

==================
Ok so that's the bad news -- now how to slap lipstick on it??...
Well here is the next sentence.
Time added this: "They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it".
That's right my friends - America was being force-fed that medicine "for its own good" according to the left.
Time: "That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream"
And they claim this as a non-partisan effort that was needed to (in their words "to fend off President Donald Trump’s anticipated claims of fraud" (as Time put it)... when presumably some of the coordinated work of the secret cabal began to unfold and then be challenged as if there were "a conspiracy" at work.
Anyway it is nice they are officially confessing to the "secret good" they were doing behind the scenes.
Here is a good review of it:
===============================
from: The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election
"In a way, Trump was right.
"There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs. Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans. The pact was formalized in a terse, little-noticed joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and AFL-CIO published on Election Day. Both sides would come to see it as a sort of implicit bargain–inspired by the summer’s massive, sometimes destructive racial-justice protests–in which the forces of labor came together with the forces of capital to keep the peace and oppose Trump’s assault on democracy."
"The handshake between business and labor was just one component of a vast, cross-partisan campaign..."
Trumps complaining about evidence appearing of a secret cabal/conspiracy during the election is apparently "an assault on democracy" when viewed from the left. Just part of "President Donald Trump’s anticipated claims of fraud" as the article put it.
No surprise then that opposing Trump looks like a "non-partisan effort" to the left.
Apparently coordinated opposition to one of the Presidential candidates during the election process is considered "non-partisan" if that candidate is not the Democratic candidate.
And just so we all know that "the left" is not limited to "the Biden campaign" the article makes this point.
"Though much of this activity took place on the left, it was separate from the Biden campaign "
=============================
Meanwhile: Democratic senators warned of potential 'vote switching' by Dominion voting machines prior to 2020 election
Judge Rejects Democrats’ Claims of Voting Machine Irregularities
I think any hint of a problem with the machines or the process should be looked into - so that both sides can agree to the accuracy even if both sides are not happy with the outcome. That is the whole point of having election monitoring from both parties given full and unrestricted access to vote process and where monitor's objections are treated seriously and respectfully.
