In 2017, Congress set up the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which is part of Homeland Security, and Congress unanimously selected Christopher Krebs (a life-long Republican) to head up the new security agency. The CISA was charged, in part, with cybersecurity and oversight of elections.
CISA had all the resources of Homeland Security, the intelligence community, the Department of Defense, the FBI, the Secret Service, as well as state and local elections officials including the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS), the National Association of State Election Directors (NASED) and various other agencies responsible for securing and overseeing elections in the United States.
The Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council (GCC) Executive Committee was made up of a bipartisan group of the government agencies and entities listed above. This Committee unanimously released the following statement on November 12, 2020:
“The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history.”
Five days later, on November 17, 2020, then-President Trump fired Chris Krebs by way of Twitter.

This evidence brings up an interesting question for the losing candidate. Every
state and federal agency issued a bipartisan unanimous statement regarding the election was the “most secure in American history.”
At this point, Trump knew the election was valid and that he lost by more than 7 million votes. He was faced with the choice of peaceful transition of presidential power like the last 230 years; or continue to lie daily to the American public and do everything to overturn an election he knew was valid.
There were 62 lawsuit challenges to the 2020 election results. All but one was
thrown out of court for lack of evidence.
One lawsuit in Pennsylvania was in Trump's favor but only impacted a few votes. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court then overruled this lower court's finding.
