Select Committee Reveals Email That Outlined Early Republican Plan To Overturn 2020 Election - RoF
The House Select Committee investigating January 6th has made a new email public (via a lawsuit) that reveals an earlier plan to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The email suggested having Mike Pence recuse himself from overseeing the hearing, and replacing him with the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, which at the time was Republican Chuck Grassley. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains how this scam would have worked.
