Who remembers that Clarence Thomas' clerk John Eastman was the author of the legal brief to overturn our election? Yep, Clarence Thomas.
John Eastman, who advised Donald Trump near the end of his presidency, was one of 18 people indicted alongside the former president for allegedly participating in a wide-ranging effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia.
He is accused of trying to persuade Mike Pence to either delay Congress' certification of electoral votes on Jan. 6, 2021, or reject some states' slates of electors in order to allow alternate electors who would support Trump.
Eastman is also believed to be one of the six co-conspirators listed in the Justice Department's indictment of Trump, who was charged for trying to overturn the 2020 election. The co-conspirators, who are not yet named in the indictment, could still face charges. He is charged with election crimes in #Arizona and #Georgia
#Georgia's parliament voted on Tuesday to override a presidential veto of a bill on "foreign agents" that has plunged the South #Caucasus country into crisis.
The bill would require organisations receiving more than 20% of their funding from overseas to register as "agents of foreign influence", while also introducing punitive fines for violations, as well as onerous disclosure requirements.
