The Evolution of the Big Lie

What we know today as the “Big Lie” has been the long con of conservative activists and policymakers for decades. From Trump’s false claims of large-scale fraud in 2016 to his attempts to pressure officials to overturn his 2020 loss, and now to the long trail of election “audits,” American Oversight has been investigating the anti-democracy movement’s attempts to undermine free and fair elections. We outlined our extensive work exposing the Big Lie this week in five parts:

PART 1: The “Voter Fraud” Narrative
DONATE TODAY TO SUPPORT BIG LIE ACCOUNTABILITY
PART 2: Trump-led Effort to Stop the Election Certification

PART 3: Unanswered Questions About the January 6 Attack on the Capitol
American Oversight has filed dozens of federal, state, and local records requests investigating what happened on Jan. 6, and has filed four lawsuits to demand the release of the records of top administration officials from before and during the attack. Could you make a $25 contribution to support American Oversight and our investigation into January 6?
PART 4: Lies Leading to Voting Restrictions

PART 5: Sham Election Reviews Gain Momentum Despite Lack of Evidence
Highlighted by our recent court wins in Arizona, open records investigations are proving invaluable in the fight against the Big Lie and conspiracy-fueled election review schemes. American Oversight will continue to investigate the individuals, groups, and election-undermining actions that underpin this movement threatening the core of our democracy. 

Thank you for considering a donation today and supporting American Oversight’s ongoing investigations.
