ProPublica's investigation found that nearly all 75 federal officials who resisted Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election have since been removed, replaced by roughly two dozen Trump appointees — at least ten of whom actively worked to reverse the 2020 vote or have ties to the election-denial movement. The reporting documents specific personnel removals from Justice and Homeland Security, including the cybersecurity experts who debunked the Antrim County conspiracy theory. This matters because election administration officials are now aligned with Trump's political goals rather than institutional election security, raising legitimate concerns about how federal agencies could respond if Trump contests the 2026 midterm results. The article provides previously unreported details of internal 2020 meetings (like Barr's interaction with CISA) and names specific new appointees from election-denial activist groups, showing the movement has moved from outside pressure into government itself.
