For decades we have done NOTHING post-election to push back on their long march through the institutions. In fact, we were told by Team GOP/Fox News we couldn't because the blowback would be bad and we'd lose elections.
This reduced winning elections to mere defensive maneuvers. A staving off of the inevitable. Elections became mass, colossal undertakings for the purpose of kicking the can down the road. Most of their policies remained or even advanced.

Until Trump.
He, and his base, became the first real threat to the Left since the 80s. Which is why you've seen them lose their damned minds out in the open last few years. Which is why you're seeing them pull out all the stops now, to put down the uprising before it gains generational steam.
And it's also why you're seeing those who wearing our jersey, who for years refused to permit us to push back on their long march through the institutions, remain silent (or even aid and abet the opposition) now.
What's happening here isn't a coordinated plan as much as harmonic convergence. When your judges can make literally anything "legal", and our side will simply reside with a "shucks that's the law now," you can't break the law that you can make anytime you want.
Furthermore, their tech companies were given immunity to monopolize the flow of information. And we give tax breaks/corporatist grift for big business to subsidize their causes/narrative (news) media. Frankly, with all those advantages, it's a miracle they ever lose.
And now, at the moment they've been zealous for the past 4 years, did we really expect them not to collectively harness all the institutions we let them march through? It's not a plot, it's a winning hand. They get to make the rules and pick the umpires.
Even now we have suckers/Quislings on our own side pleading for pause and perspective. As if their sanctimonious super maturity will be returned/appreciated by the mob outside Lot's House. They're either woefully naïve or EG Robinson's Dathan in "The 10 Commandments."
No, this isn't a plot. It's not a conspiracy. It's a process, and this is its most logical next step. Why lose when you can define what losing is? We let them define life, borders, genders, science, and everything else essential. Why wouldn't they assume they could define a vote?
