Replying to @kyledcheney and @joshgerstein
PELOSI now weighs in on the House's brief in the Gohmert v. Pence suit:

“There is no doubt that, despite this desperate unpatriotic charade, on January 6, Joe Biden will be confirmed ...as the 46th President of the United States.” https://politico.com/news/2020/12/31/pence-overturn-election-results-lawsuit-453207

THE LATEST: Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Mike Pence have put a squeeze on the last-ditch legal effort by Rep. Gohmert to overturn the 2020 election.

Both urged the court to throw it out for a multitude of reasons.

Even after all of his chats with Jesus, he's so DONE with dealing with Donnie Two Scoops. I would guess that he still has aspirations for higher office (not the kind up in the sky), but he's also not so stupid as to think he can overturn the election next week.

Don't blame him, history would remember Pence, not Gohmert, as the person who tried to overthrew the popular vote of the American people.
