TL;DR

Text messages and emails revealed that right-wing attorney Kenneth Chesebro continued proposing ways to overturn the 2020 presidential election, including the fake electors plot, even after the Capitol attack. The materials, disclosed as part of a lawsuit, show Chesebro's push for the electors plot regardless of lawsuit outcomes, contradicting his recent testimony. The texts also reveal communication between Chesebro and a Trump lawyer about the plan, including sending a memo to the White House. Chesebro's lawyer declined to comment, and Chesebro and his attorneys maintain that his legal work for the Trump campaign was done in good faith.
