The Trillionaire Kill Chain

Jason Sattler

The Trillionaire Kill Chain maps a seven-stage attack on American democracy — built on fifty years of work by people who decided democracy was incompatible with their politics — and what every billionaire learned from watching the one man who finally proved them right. In cybersecurity, a kill chain describes how sophisticated attacks actually work: not a single event, but a sequence, each stage building on the last, each one harder to stop than the one before. Reconnaissance. Weaponization. Delivery. Exploitation. Installation. Command and Control. Actions on Objective. You can stop a kill chain — but only if you recognize which stage you're in. Seven stages. Seven episodes. Leading up to one documentary. From LOLGOP Studios.

    How One Man Bought the Presidency

    Theodore Roosevelt named the threat in 1910. It took 114 years for someone to finally prove him right. How was it legal for one man to spend $291 million to elect the person who controlled the agencies investigating him — and then watch $2.37 billion in federal exposure quietly disappear? The answer isn't 2024. It isn't even Citizens United. It goes back to 1976, and it took fifty years of narrow rulings, split votes, and a regulatory agency that chose again and again not to do its job. Episode 1 maps Stage One of the kill chain: Reconnaissance. With campaign finance attorneys Erin Chlopak and Brendan Fischer of the Campaign Legal Center.
