My latest piece for MSNBC.com lays out the election denial movement's three-prong strategy -- messaging, grassroots activism, and legal warfare -- to support their campaign to steal the 2024 election.

Groups like Election Integrity Network, The Heritage Foundation, and Turning Point USA have invested heavily in various election denial initiatives. Together, a supercharged network of professional right-wing election deniers have developed a three-prong strategy to convince the public Trump can’t lose and create a predicate for stealing the election.

These groups and their leaders, who both regularly appear throughout MAGA media and run their own media platforms, bring unique resources to the sprawling cause. Former Trump attorney Cleta Mitchell’s Election Integrity Network is the tip of the spear. Mitchell has used her stature and influence from her decades as a conservative movement lawyer to direct millions into funding a “permanent election integrity infrastructure.”
