On Thursday, the House select committee will host its first public hearing while investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and the effort to keep Donald Trump in office despite his election loss in 2020.
Lee has repeatedly claimed he was investigating “rumors” that states were considering appointing Trump electors, which could throw the certification of the election into doubt. Lee reiterated that claim last week“There were rumors following the 2020 presidential election that there were multiple states thinking about correcting alleged errors in their own state’s electoral count. It was causing them to consider withdrawing their electoral votes and submitting new ones.
The court filing includes a December 19, 2020, email from Eastman where he says any alternate electors must be certified by state legislatures. “Unless those electors get a certification from their State Legislators, they will be dead on arrival in Congress,” Eastman wrote. Eastman was responding to a suggestion that Trump could declare martial law and force a re-vote overseen by the military.
