All 50 Senate Republicans, as expected, have filibustered the Freedom to Vote Act. Was a 49-51 vote; (with Schumer changing his vote to no in order to be able to bring it up later)

In the full 6-page John Eastman pre-Jan 6 memo obtained by @charliearchy, he imagines “Trump electors” in 6 states sending dueling slates of electors to Pence, deems the electoral count act unconstitutional, and then games out ways the EC could go to Trump businessinsider.com/memo-details-h…
@charliearchy Eastman says that Pence should assert "the authority to determine which slates are valid", which he says "under the 12th Amendment, and the Adams and Jefferson precedents, is his alone (anything in the Electoral Count Act to the contrary is therefore unconstitutional)."
@charliearchy The memo ends: "BOLD, Certainly. But this Election was Stolen by a strategic Democrat plan to systematically flout existing election laws for partisan advantage; we’re no longer playing by Queensbury Rules, therefore" Pence should go by the 12th Amendment documentcloud.org/documents/2106…

Breed seems to undercut the logic behind the mask mandate: “Like sip and drink, that's just not realistic. At a restaurant, same thing, I’m leaving my mask down while I’m enjoying my food. People are not doing that. So that’s just not realistic, you all know it’s not realistic"
Breed says at the end of the clip: "When I take a picture, as I do in any case or do an interview, yes I take my mask off when I take a picture. I don't need to — I'm vaccinated. I don't need to wear a mask and take a picture every time..But at the same time, I'm being careful.."
Breed at the end of the clip: "When the spirit moves you because you are watching history in the making, Bay Area royalty perform...I'm not going to turn around and look for where my mask is or look to make sure I'm picking up a drink, I'm just going to let the spirit move me"
