Jeffrey Lord of The American Spectator writes (abridged):
So who will it be? Or will there be anyone with the courage at all?
Here is the basic — constitutional — reality when Congress has a joint meeting on January 6 to decide whether to accept the votes of the Electoral College.
Stepping up in the House is Alabama Republican Congressman Mo Brooks. He is determined to be the required lone House vote to reject the results of the Electoral College.
Thanks to Brooks, there are at least two senators who may indeed step up.
Tommy Tuberville Floated as Ally for Rep. Brooks’ Electoral College Challenge
Another senator considering to team as Brooks’ Senate partner is Kentucky’s Rand Paul.
Instead of folding like a cheap suit, GOP senators should be standing up to fight for the integrity of the American election process.
A hard fact here is this is typical of the GOP establishment. They refuse to stand and fight, terrified of the liberal media and rejection by the Washington elites.
Nothing could be more vital to America than the integrity of its election system. It is being threatened by a power-crazed Democrat Party and its allies in the media and Big Tech.
