GOP is calling for an audit to give the MI SCB an excuse to delay certification.
The next play is to cast enough doubt to shade MI's Republican legislature's treasonous move to appoint its own electors. Whitmer could appoint a competing slate.
Pay very careful attention here. Trump has been working this angle for months.
He's working Pennsylvania too. The good news is that even in the worse case scenario (PA and MI both do the unthinkable), it's still not enough. It would only get Trump to 268. He would need one more state.
Biden needs transition clearance NOW. But House Dems are just sitting around waiting to hear back from @GSAEmily after a letter they sent a few days ago.

I believe that every United States senator who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution, but now defiles that oath by not recognizing the winner of a free and fair presidential election, should be stripped of their U.S. citizenship and exiled.
Today I took a 50-mile trip through rural Michigan to see my dad. I was appalled at the number of Trump campaign signs, banners and flags still up.
These people honestly think the election is ongoing. That Trump has a real chance with his stupid lawsuits.
And with the demands for Fox News hosts and Republican politicians to not ever say "President-elect Biden" - I don't think this ends here.
I think there is a significant percentage of the population - maybe 30% or more - who will never recognize President Biden.
The most ill-conceived memo in U.S. government history has got to be that ridiculous OLC memo that places a president above the law.
It put Trump out of justice's reach and every crony who did his bidding. It allowed the corruption of huge sectors of the Executive branch.
Without that memo, Trump would have been indicted for Obstruction of Justice before Barr ever happened on the scene.
Without that memo, Trump probably couldn't have run for reelection. He wouldn't have gotten away with threatening to fire McGahn unless he falsified documents; he wouldn't have gotten away with extorting Ukraine.
