If #SCOTUS grants cert in the PA election case, I have told the petitioners I will stand ready to present the oral argument.

Full statement below...
Because of the importance of the legal issues presented, I've publicly urged #SCOTUS to hear the case brought by Congressman Mike Kelly, congressional candidate Sean Parnell & state rep. candidate Wanda Logan challenging the constitutionality of the POTUS election results in PA.
Petitioners’ legal team has asked me whether I would be willing to argue the case before #SCOTUS, if the Court grants certiorari. I have agreed, and told them that, if the Court takes the appeal, I will stand ready to present the oral argument.
As I said last week, the bitter division and acrimony we see across the Nation needs resolution. I believe #SCOTUS has a responsibility to the American People to ensure, within its powers, that we are following the law and following the Constitution.

A major win for any American who cherishes our religious liberty. Andrew Cuomo and Democrat elected officials have acted as totalitarians, using COVID19 to strip the people of NY of their fundamental right to worship. Today, the Court said enough is enough

This summer the Court wrongly ruled that a Nevada law discriminating against religion could stay in place. With #ACB, the Court was able to right that ruling today.
Yet again Chief Justice Roberts was willing to set aside his duty to enforce the Constitution when state or local leaders are hostile to religion under the guise of public health. But thankfully, this time he and the liberal justices lost.

We are one vote away from losing our fundamental liberties: cnn.com/2020/09/30/opi…
In One Vote Away (OneVoteAway.com), I examine eight critical constitutional issues and landmark #SCOTUS cases that every American should know about
Van Orden v. Perry was a landmark religious liberty case

District of Columbia v. Heller affirmed our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms

Gonzales v. Carhart upheld the federal ban on the gruesome practice of partial-birth abortion

1/x Everyone agrees Tuesday’s debate was a train wreck. A major contributing fact was the moderator Chris Wallace, a registered Democrat, repeatedly interrupting to try to help Joe Biden. The next debate is set to be moderated by a former intern to...Joe Biden. (And Ted Kennedy.)
2/x This is NUTS. And no Republican should allow this bias to continue in future elections.

I propose 2 simple, fair rules for future debates:

(1) GOP primary debates should be moderated by people who actually vote in a GOP primary. (Not Dem journalists who want GOP to lose.)
3/x And (2) General election debates should be moderated by an equal number of GOP and Dems.

We should stop pretending obvious bias doesn’t exist. Instead, equalize & counter-balance it.

A debate moderated by, say Mark Levin & Chris Hayes would be better than fake impartiality.

1/x Fascinating article. Lots of editorial snark, but the underlying point is important: Trump EPA prioritizing cleaning up the air & water, and produced MUCH GREATER RESULTS in actually cleaning up the environment.

Politico: “The EPA under Trump...” politico.com/news/magazine/…
2/x “...has showed what it can look like when an administration gets serious about cleaning up long-neglected sites. Some of these activists are voting Republican for the first time in their lives. Some have seen their backyards and communities finally cleaned up...”
3/x “...because of the Trump administration’s EPA. ‘I’ve been a Democrat all my life,’ Worley-Jenkins says. ‘Trump actually gives us money to clean up these sites that have been here forever,’ she says. ‘Obama talked a lot of crap, but did very little...’”

1/x Calling out lies is not silence. NYT explicitly admits the 1619 project is revisionist history: “It aims to reframe our country’s history.”

It is filled with serious errors—which have been called out by top historians—but the NYT doesn’t care. You’re not after truth....
2/x ...you’re engaged in propaganda. In the words of a former NYT editorial board member, “a new consensus has emerged...at this paper: that truth isn’t a process of collective discovery, but an orthodoxy already known to an enlightened few whose job is to inform everyone else.”
3/x Why should the false revisionist history not be used as the basis of K-12 education across the nation? Not because of “cancel culture,” which you support.

But because it wrong & deliberately deceptive. As your former board member put it, “history itself is one more...”

1/x Really disturbing text I just received from our pastor @GreggMatte He said I could share:

“Hey guys,
I’m back from DC.
Thought you would be interested ...
Getting from the White House to my hotel room at the JW Marriott last night was quite a feat. Protesters everywhere.”
2/x “They had us exit to the west and Uber had to drop me and a few other people three blocks away from the hotel. Thankfully Kelly was not with me. As we walked up to the JW Marriott (across from the Willard) a group of about 50 to 100 protesters were walking up...”
3/x “... the other side of the circle drive at the hotel. The lead one on a bike looked me in the eye and said ‘you better run.’ With a lot of expletives. Truly a scary experience for me. I was one of the last people that went into the Hotel...”
