Just the News: Alabama Republican Rep. Mo Brooks plans to challenge the Electoral College votes on Jan. 6, when Congress is scheduled to certify Democrat Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential race.
Brooks has been telling his plan to fellow House members and might follow without the backing of Senate Republicans, according to Politico.
To trigger such a legislative effort, at least one member from the House and the Senate must challenge the results of the Electoral College vote.
Brooks called the November election “badly flawed,” and mail-in voting “unconstitutional.” more
What happens once the Electoral College votes are challenged? Do the donkeys and elephants all go out for dinner and drinks together and laugh at how they all stuck it up our asses again?
You know what would be fun? A congressional fist fight.
I’m with you MJA, I’d even pay to see that. 😉 🍿
How bout some peaceful protesting!
In the short article he thinks that the SC doesn’t have the power to over-turn the election but they do have the power to throw out illegal votes
All the dimwits responsible for this out to do a rope dance in public,
So that would leave us with the House appointing the President and the Senate appointing the Vice President and the next administration being a congressionally appointed one instead of an elected one?

Is it wrong that I’m giggling because I read this as MEL Brooks?
We are seeing some real leadership coming out of the deep south.
@karasioux, here you go.

@MJA — Rather than a fist fight, I’d like to see a fire fight.
@TommyBoy in IN, thank you! Nothing buoys my spirits these days like a little Mel Brooks. That man was hysterically funny.
(And now I’m sitting here grinning like an idiot after watching that clip.)
