#JackSmith added that there was no reason to fear tit-for-tat prosecutions that would chill other presidents from taking decisive action.

“That dystopian vision runs contrary to the checks & balances built into our institutions & the framework of the #Constitution,” Smith wrote.

Trump's campaign can be summed up in one phrase.

"Gott mit uns."

Let's hear it for MAGA.

It’s mind blowing that the networks give so much weight to a third rate legislator like Stefanik. She hasn’t accomplished anything except groveling in front of Donald Trump. Her integrity isn’t in question. It doesn’t exist.

The Republican plan is to only certify elections where their candidate wins. It won’t stay limited to President.

Elise Stefanik pre-emptively declines to commit to accepting 2024 election results-

Where did Senator Chuck Grassley expect Vice President Pence to be Jan. 6 when he made this early morning announcement Jan. 5? What was his role in all this and why isn't he center stage in this investigation?
