Progressive Leader Describes How the Left Is Going to Use a Number of “Wargames” Before Midterm Election to Take Over Congress – Plan Involves Marc Elias and Norm Eisen

They may be stone-cold crazy and communist sympathizers but they sure are organized.

Far left leader Ian Bassin told viewers this week on “The Court of History” how the Democrats are role-playing wargames before the midterm elections so they can take over Congress.

The wargames involves progressive heroes Marc Elias and Norm Eisen, two of the most ruthless, Trump-hating worms on the planet.

Attorney Jeff Clark tweeted out this video of former Clinton crony Ian Bassin earlier on Thursday.

Ian Bassin is the leader of the wargames. Bassin is also the co-founder and executive director of Protect Democracy, a nonprofit worth millions. Ian says he established in 2017 to safeguard U.S. elections and counter disinformation. In reality the far-left activist group harasses conservative leaders through lawsuits and destroys their careers. The Gateway Pundit was previously sued by this shady group.

Here is what Bassin had to say about wargames.

Ian Bassin: So that’s kind of what these are designed to do. And so everybody got assigned a role, right? Some people played themselves, some people played other actors in the system, the Attorney General, et cetera. And then we walked through a set of scenarios. And look, the scenarios we do—

Sidney Blumenthal: Who are the actors? What are the roles? Tell us what the roles are as you remember them.

Ian Bassin: Yeah. So you have people playing roles as the leadership in the Congress, right? You have people playing roles as the leadership in the administration, right, the Attorney General, Director of National Intelligence, the Secretary of Homeland Security. You have people playing roles of who’s out in the civil society ecosystem, the nonprofit litigators who are going to litigate, the governors and secretaries of state of key states, maybe the people who spread conspiracy theories online, sort of big influencers online. What are they going to do? Foreign actors, right? Someone could play a nefarious foreign actor. What is Russia going to do in the middle of all this? What is Iran going to to do, right? And so you create all of those roles.

Sidney Blumenthal: And the roles are taken by the senators themselves?

Ian Bassin: Yeah, and we had a couple of other people participate who work on election protection or experts on it. Norm Eisen, Marc Elias, Vanita Gupta, Sky Perryman. There were some other people participating. And we give people a little bit of of, you know, how to get into character, right? I would encourage people, you know, this is your chance to do method acting. So, you know, if you’re gonna be playing a conspiracy-minded online influencer, Get into the mindset of that person. If you’re going to be playing the acting director of national intelligence, get into the mindset of that person. We had people playing the FCC or ABC News just to see how everything interacted.

And, of course, the mainstream media will run with their BS for the next 10 weeks before the midterm elections.
