Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham both took action to block Joe Biden's win of the presidency, but it's Graham who now finds himself in the most legal jeopardy.
In the news today: Another Trump aide who was witness to events inside the White House leading up to the Jan. 6 coup attempt has agreed to give public testimony to the House select committee investigating the coup; Trump’s former deputy press secretary, Sarah Matthews, resigned her post immediately after the Trump-incited violence. Sen. Lindsey Graham is less eager, however, to testify about his own role in pressuring Georgia elections officials to alter vote totals on Trump's behalf; he's lawyered up in a bid to prevent it.
The Supreme Court stunned actual legal minds yet again (sigh) when they decided to hear arguments in a case that would allow states to simply forgo federal elections outright, instead allowing state legislatures to name which candidate should win. The new news that a prominent Christian fascist has long had the ear of the Court's conservative justices, however, may or may not be related.
