I don't. To challenge a slate of electors a member of the House and Senate have to sponsor the challenge. Then, both houses have to vote to sustain the challenge. Even accounting for senators who have not acknowledged Biden's win, there aren't enough votes in the Senate to sustain an objection and the House's decision is a foregone conclusion.

At this point, any attempt to stay in power would be an unlawful attempt to use his power. He could still try something but that doesn't mean the electoral system failed. In fact, if he tries something extra legal it would be because the system worked. At that point, other systems kick in.
 
Modest proposal: Adopt a policy that when a candidate who clearly lost a state demands a second recount of that state's ballots, in the event the challenging candidate wins, he/she gets all that state's electoral votes. But if the second recount proves that the original winner STILL wins, then the original candidate gets twice the electoral votes.

Call it the "Double or nothing" amendment.

At this point, I doubt he will be successful at any attempt to remain in power.

But he’s always been willing to work outside the law. I was about to list examples, but that’s unnecessary. And to this point there’s been close to zero accountability for those violations of the law.

We’ll just have to see how this plays out over the next month or so until Inauguration Day. I think it’s really over this time, but I’m not willing to say I’m certain it is. But let’s hope so.
 
There's a new fantasy going around in crazy town. They seem to think if they can get a senator to sign on to the objection with Rep. ***hat, that when the house votes on it they only get one vote per state. While that's true if they were actually voting for president, the constitution doesn't cover the objection procedures. That is covered in 3 U.S. Code § 15, which says no such thing. Surprise, surprise!

There are some old people who don't understand what a 98 percent pay out on slots means. Also, Nicholas Cage is drinking himself to death and Raoul Duke and Doctor Gonzo are on large drugs.

I utterly do love the number of government/deep state conspiracy theories based around the idea that government is basically susceptible to stack overflow errors, like you can break it by giving it bad input.
 
Has Bubba mentioned That Kamala Harris has not given up her Senate seat yet? That's trending over on Breitbart. Oh, and Tucker says that Jill Biden is not a doctor.

I had to look up the "Dr" kerfuffle though I then and still, haven't read the WSJ opinion piece.
Has Dr. Phil weighed in? [emoji1]
 
McConnell's break with Donnie today shows Mitch is a member of The Deep State. How deep does this plot go?

This is funny to me, because...well, I'm admittedly not a Tucker viewer, but really what are the chances that he's never had a likeminded talking-head on his show with a PhD that he had no problem referring to as "Doctor"?

Charges have been filed in a "voter fraud" case in Texas!

Will Trump retweet this one?

Let's see:

A former Houston police captain was charged with assault on Tuesday after running a man off the road and holding him at gunpoint in an effort to prove what authorities have called a bogus voter fraud scheme.

Mark Aguirre claimed that an air conditioner repairman was the mastermind of a giant voter fraud scheme. Aguirre said the man's truck was filled with fraudulent ballots when he ran his SUV into it on Oct. 19, according to authorities.

"The defendant stated (the driver) has approximately seven hundred and fifty thousand fraudulent mail ballots and is using Hispanic children to sign the ballots because the children's fingerprints would not appear in any databases," according to an arrest affidavit.

...

Police who responded to the incident searched the truck and found only air conditioning parts and tools, authorities said. Authorities did not name the truckdriver, who was not hurt.

"A lengthy investigation ... determined allegations of election fraud were unfounded and no evidence of illegal ballots was found," Houston police said.

...

Police say Aguirre was paid $266,400 by Houston-based Liberty Center for God and Country, a nonprofit organization that is run by GOP party activist Dr. Steven Hotze.

...

Jared Woodfill, an attorney for Hotze, said Liberty Center had employed Aguirre's company and around 20 investigators who were looking into allegations of voter fraud during the election.
